Jasmine snickered, giving Yolanda a dismissive glance. “You got it all wrong, girl! If you don’t believe


me, ask everyone else here what they thought of the climax. Anyone cares to share?” Jasmine said.


The host broke the silence first. “All I heard was intense sorrow, like being engulfed by an


overwhelming tidal wave of grief. After what felt like forever, a ray of sunlight broke through and suddenly, and I felt this pull, like a force telling me to keep going.”

Some audience members stood up and the host handed them the mic.


“I heard courage and strength breaking free from sorrow.”


“The image that came to my mind was the earthquake reported in the news last year.”


“Same here. Last year’s earthquake in H city caused countless deaths and injuries. The scene of the


quake just rushed into my mind when I heard the climax.” “I also thought of natural and man–made


disasters!”


Jasmine watched as Yolanda’s face gradually paled. She smirked, “Exactly! Last year’s earthquake in


H city left countless people homeless. The survivors were in deep anguish, unable to escape their


sorrow. Melody wrote ‘Wish‘ aiming to comfort them with the power of music and help them move on!”


Yolanda didn’t understand music, and her tutor was no expert either, so what they heard was entirely


superficial. They knew the climax was sad, but they didn’t realize that beneath the sorrow was a force


pulling the survivors to keep going.


“Why am I so sure Melody wrote ‘Wish‘? Because this March, with–my–help, her song was included in


the music textbooks. The new textbooks have been printed and everyone can see Melody’s work in


September! This hasn’t been announced before!” Jasmine said.


Everyone was stunned, they didn’t expect this. Even Yolanda was flabbergasted. She couldn’t believe


it.


“Melody’s original version sounds much better than your version! I bet you copied Melody’s climax, but


you were afraid people would find out, so you wrote the rest yourself. But you couldn’t reach that


level, hence the song sounded so weird!” Jasmine said, “At first, I didn’t notice anything and even


thought it was a bit off! But when the climax kicked in, it struck me as familiar! If it wasn’t because of


the climax, the judges wouldn’t have let you advance. Your song is mediocre at best. You wouldn’t even


make it to the top 20, let alone second! You copied Melody’s work and refused to admit it. You don’t


deserve this award! You don’t belong in this field! As a representative of the Piano Association, I reject


your membership!”


After Jasmine’s words, everyone was beyond shocked. To think Yolanda, at such a young age, would


dare to plagiarize a senior’s work. Not only did she refuse to admit it, she even tried to smear Jasmine


to divert attention.


Yolanda’s face turned ashen, she could barely stand. Being publicly sentenced by the president of the Piano Association that she could never become a pianist was worse than death!
