Chapter 820 He Taught Her Piano
Chapter 820 He Taught Her Piano
In an instant, Josie felt a chill run down his spine. He’s doing this on purpose,
“The piano should be at Wavery University, shouldn’t it?” she asked.
“I bought it over from the school,” Morgan replied, taking her hand and idly playing with her fingers. “It’s old and the quality is nowhere near as good as the pianos today, but it’s part of our shared memories, isn’t it?”
His tone was casual, yet it caused Josie to shudder.
When they were together for two years, they were popular figures in the school. On the day of the school anniversary, Morgan led her onto the stage, and they played a duet, their hands moving in harmony. Their performance remained the talk of the town for a long time.
Everyone said that Morgan’s affection for Josie ran deep to his very core.
If he had not mentioned their shared past, Josie would have already forgotten about it.
She closed her eyes briefly, lowering her voice. “What do you want?”
“Why not put on a show for your ex-husband?” Morgan suggested, his smile contrasting with the icy coldness in his eyes.
Josie looked up and noticed Dexter was not far away. Heather was talking to him about something, but he seemed uninterested. It was unclear whether he was listening or not. He would definitely kill me if he finds out that I learned piano four hands from Morgan!
“I can’t play,” she said coldly.
“Are you not going to play?” Morgan moved closer to her, whispering in her ear, “Don’t you want to annoy her a bit? Josie, I’m willing to be used by you.”
He was referring to Heather..
Frowning, just as Josie was about to retort, a sudden thought struck her. She curved her lips into a smile and caught hold of his fingers. “It’s been a while. I might not play as well.”
Holding hands, they walked onto the stage together.
Morgan was pleased and said nonchalantly, “I think you play quite well with him.”
In a stealthy manner, Josie gave him a kick under the table.
To the onlookers, it was quite a shock. They never expected Josie to have a connection with the eldest son of the Bastille family. It seemed that he was even willing to take orders from her.
Their every move caught the eyes of the other guests. Even Heather could not help but subconsciously murmur, “Isn’t that Ms. Warren?”
A glint of cold light flashed in Dexter’s eyes as he intently watched the two on stage
Morgan was the first to raise his hand, pressing a key on the piano. Without hesitation, Josie quickly followed suit.
The piece that he played was Mariage d’Amour.
When the two of them were on good terms, they practiced this piece extensively. Josie was a bit rusty, but Morgan patiently guided her, making the imperfections almost imperceptible.
As time went on, they got into the swing of things, and the two of them even played better than when they were playing it alone.
The melodious piano music wafted through the hall, causing everyone to unconsciously set aside their tasks to listen attentively.
Josie was somewhat surprised herself. After all these years, she could not believe she could still keep up with Morgan’s pace in playing the piano.
In a gentle voice, Morgan uttered, “What’s with the surprised look? I trained you. No one knows you better than I do, not even Dexter.”
As the song ended, Morgan took her hand, looked at everyone in the audience, and announced loudly, “My girlfriend is a bit shy. We hope you enjoyed our performance.”
Everyone froze for a moment. After processing the announcement in their minds, they began to applaud.
Morgan had been back in the country for so long without any rumors of a woman in his life, but now, he publicly announced that Josie was his girlfriend!
Josie tried to pull her hand away from Morgan. “Are you out of your mind?” She quickly grabbed the mic and clarified, “He made a mistake. I’m his ex-girlfriend.” novelbin
The crowd could not help but gasp upon hearing this, as there was a lot of information for them to process.
Morgan did not take it to heart. “Could you give me another chance?”
This time, it was not a private conversation between two people; he popped the question in front of all the guests.
Josie’s heart was racing, not from excitement, but from the intense gaze directed at her from below the stage. It made her feel as if she were suffocating, as though impending punishment hung in the air.
