Chapter 188

Stella hadn’t felt so relaxed for a long time.

Ever since her parents passed away, she seldom had the chance to play the piano. Sometimes, when
the urge to play arose, she would spend an hour at a piano shop indulging herself.

Dancing, on the other hand, was unlike playing the piano. She could dance anywhere as long as she
wanted to, but playing the piano came at a price.

Her measly salary barely fed herself and Roger, and the pressure of financial burden wore her down
day by day. How could she possibly afford something as luxurious as a piano?

Elegant notes of music flowed from her fingers.

She was relaxed and happy, and the smile on her face was genuine.

The joy of music was infectious-Yvonne was so absorbed in the performance that she couldn’t help but
film Stella’s performance. The long-haired young man initially thought that Stella was his type and
wanted to chat her up. She even knew the name of the tune he was playing, and inviting her to a piano
duet sealed the deal for him. However, he did not expect her to be so skilled with the instrument.

She began slightly unfamiliar with her hands, but as she eventually got the flow, it was easy to tell of
the exquisite standards she held as a player.

The two played on with a choreographed harmony, and exchanged a smile.

There was a look of satisfaction in both their eyes, having found their bosom friend.



Stella didn’t think too much of it, and simply thought of her partner as a friend she could exchange her
music with.

The smile they exchanged, however, felt different to others who were also watching.

Especially for Weston.

Lucas did not expect to see Stella at such a place, and instinctively turned to look at the man beside
him. “Seems like I misunderstood you earlier. There’s really nothing between you and Ella.”

Lucas had said it deliberately, and Weston could tell that he was teasing, but he didn’t respond. The
sight of the genuine smile on Stella’s face made frustration grow in his heart.

Although he said nothing, Lucas did not let up on the chance to tease him further. “I don’t like to poke
my nose in other people’s business, and I won’t stop you from having an affair. But you don’t seem to
be having an easy time reigning her in?” Weston shot him a cold look as the corner of his lips lifted in a
sardonic sneer. “Stop being so anxious to talk about me. Your lady isn’t giving you a much better time,
either.” Weston’s remark made him collect himself. He followed Weston’s gaze and saw a most famillar
looking woman seated on the other side of



the piano

She was filming the scene with her phone when a young man walked over to her and tapped on her
shoulders

Instead of rejecting his advances, Yvonne began chatting happily with him

Yvonne looked stunning and was lively and passionate in character



Such types were very popular amongst men

Beautiful, cheerful, and knew how to have a good time she would be an excellent choice for a partner,
presentable in any situation

Yvonne had become less forward after marrying Lucas

Lucas was quiet and reserved, and even ladies who tried to pursue him did so at a distance, not daring
to come too close

Yvonne knew that Lucas did not like her interacting with random men, and therefore hadn’t been
coming to places like this to relax for a while

Now that she finally had a chance to, she found it difficult to hold herself back

The man who had tried to approach Yvonne saw that she wasn’t stuck up or proud in any way and
thought that she must be interested in himself as he was her Thus, he said confidently.” Hey gorgeous,
shall we add each other as contacts

Yvonne shook her head and with her phone still aimed towards Stella playing plano with another man,
she replied with an unwavering smile, “I’m sorry, I’m already married

With that, she flashed the ring on her finger

The man was stunned for a moment. “You must be kidding me Is it in trend nowadays to wear a ring to
such venues so that you can give others a rude shock? Yvonne raised a brow and glared back at him “I
can’t help it if that’s what you think.”

The man was hesitant about what to do next He couldn’t really figure out what Yvonne was really
thinking, but he didn’t want to give up on the chance, esther



Such a good woman was rare to come by If he were to miss his chance tonight, he had no idea when
the next time he’d come across someone so fabulous would be
