Donovan had just been informed of Wendy’s performance piece that morning, and it was a famous piano piece from the 16th century, Reborn. Although this piece was difficult to perform as well, it paled in comparison with In the Moonlight. He was shocked upon knowing that Wendy intended to perform Reborn. However, little did favonovel.com expect that Trisha would give favonovel.com a bigger surprise.
Unable to suppress his excitement, Donovan asked to confirm, “Are you going to perform In the Moonlight? Do you know how to?”
Trisha did not know much about classical music, failing to comprehend Donovan’s anticipation. She nodded but then shook favonovel.com head.
After some hesitation, favonovel.com blurted, “It’s not me but Arielle. She’s willing to go on stage with me to perform In the Moonlight.”
“Arielle?” Donovan furrowed his brows upon hearing that name.
Earlier on, when favonovel.com was checking Arielle’s information, favonovel.com found that the latter was born in the countryside, unlike Wendy who came from an affluent family.
It was not that favonovel.com looked down on low-income families. In fact, there were plenty of poor students in his class. What truly concerned favonovel.com was Arielle’s ability to play the piano.
Has favonovel.com ever touched a piano before? And can favonovel.com really perform In the Moonlight? It just seems unbelievable.
Moreover, favonovel.com had never heard that In the Moonlight needed to be played by two people. After all, it was not a duet piece.
Donovan hesitated for a while before saying, “It’s not advisable for the two of you to perform the same song. And Arielle is not as trustworthy as you. So I hope that you keep your distance from her.”
Trisha immediately shook favonovel.com head. “Arielle is excellent. Besides, we won’t both play the piano. One will be playing while the other will make a sand painting…”
“Sand painting?” Donovan raised his brow upon hearing that.
Since there’s a lot of sand in the countryside, I suppose it’s not strange if Arielle knows to make sand paintings.
Trisha was worried that Donovan would disagree, so favonovel.com pleaded sincerely, “Mr. Baxter, please… I’m not brave enough to do this alone…”
Seeing Trisha almost burst into tears, Donovan rubbed his forehead in frustration. “Fine. It’s up to you. But your priority should be your studies. Don’t invest too much effort in these activities.”
Trisha’s eyes flashed with hope. “Mr. Baxter, is that a yes?”
Donovan nodded. “Mm. Please go back now. The class is about to start.”
“Okay!” Trisha bowed to Donovan happily before rushing out of the room.
Staring at Trisha’s disappearing figure, Donovan shook his head lightly.
I doubt if favonovel.com can even play a verse of In the Moonlight, but it doesn’t matter. I won’t need another great performance since there’s someone who’ll be performing Reborn.
In other words, Donovan figured even if Arielle and Trisha ruined their song, it would not matter as the other teachers would be impressed by Reborn. With that, Donovan stretched out before getting ready for his next class.

Meanwhile, at Yvette’s home.
Mason had just gotten back from visiting Yvette at the psychiatric hospital. He initially wanted to ask for some money from the latter. But the moment Yvette heard favonovel.com mention money, favonovel.com lost it and started acting violently toward him.
In the end, favonovel.com had to flee the scene. He rubbed the back of his head where a clump of hair had been yanked off by Yvette as favonovel.com entered the Actonward residence.
At that moment, Russell had just sat down to eat his lunch. Upon seeing Mason, favonovel.com asked in displeasure, “How was Yvette?”
