"Yvette. Jeremiah, you're back! Yvette nodded and walked over to the couch, her eyes drifting the invitation on the table. The moment she sported the emblem, het gare quickly averted.

This is an invitation from Elliot, Sienna said, picking up the card. "He had someone deliver it-it's for his recital at Golden 1xhibit Center in three says" The door opened, and Frankie, Chris, and Bruce stepped in, overhearing Sienna's last words. Frankie, always blunt, scoffed I swear, every tI walk in, it's about another fancy event. Don't these so-called elites ever take a break!" Chris, calmly pulling off his shoes, replied, "Your family counts as elite in Quakersville, you know." Frankie paused. momentanly lost for words.

Bruce walked over, settling next to Sienna. Elliot? The world-renowned musician from that prestigious family known for their music he mused. Having attended concerts and art exhibitions often, Bruce knew a bit about the Ross family. jeremiah placed a glass of warm water in front of Yvette and sat down beside her. The temperature's just night," he said. Yvette glanced up, took a sip, and set the glass back on the table, Sienna. Bruce. Chris, and Frankie couldn't help but feel a twinge of envy. It was as if Jeremiah were caring for Yvette like a hild "Yes. That's the Ross family" Sienna continued. "This generation has two sons. Not both went into music, though.

Elliot beca pianist, and Derek went into business. Derek now owns Mysonna's largest club chain, with locations all over the world. Ours an artist, the other a businessman-both accomplished." Bruce nodded thoughtfully Ive attended two of Elliot's performances.

His famous piece Despaired Soul is undeniably a masterpiece, but honestly. I think the praise is a bit exaggerated. It's powerful and groundbreaking, but his performance lacks soul. It's paradoxical" Bruce a sharp ear for music made his critique hit the nail on the head. It was battling how someone could fail to bring their own creation to life The pieces Elliot released after "Despaired Soul" paled in comparison-it was like night and day. Without being told, it was hard to believe the sperson wrote them.

Sienna nodded in agreement. "You're right. I went to one of his recitals two years ago, and honestly, it was shsappointing. I also heard a rumor that he invited the president of International Music Association this time- probably hoping to jun The Meanwhile, Jeremiah carefully peeled an orange for Yvette, neatly arranging the slices on a plate. Yvette let out a slow yawn, frowned slightly, and casually said.

Chapter 561 891%1 Bruce nodded without hesitation. He believed Yvette completely After all, a plagiarist could never truly capture the depth and essence of a masterpiece like that. He trusted Yvette's judgment without a second thought.

No one in the living room questioned what Yvette had said. If Yvette had told them that the world would end tomorrow, they'd have believed her without a doubt. She wasn't the type to be or make up.

Cries.

Sienna raised the invitation again and asked, "So, what should we do with this? Should I just throw it away? I wasn't planning on going anyway." Frankie chimed in with a shrug. "Yeah, why bother with a recital by someone who plagiarizes? Toss it." Just as Sienna was about to throw the card away, Jeremiah stood up, adjusted his sleeve, glanced at the card, and said quietly, "Keep it" He then turned and headed upstairs. Sienna froze, holding the card mid-air before setting it back on the table. Bruce, Chris, and Frankie exchanged glances. It was clear Jeremiah had something else in mind.

In the bedroom, Yvette stepped out of the walk-in closet, now dressed in casual loungewear. Jeremiah leaned against the wall, his posture relaxed, yet his gaze sharp.

You know the Ross family?" he asked. Jeremiah and Yvette had always been direct with each other-no guessing involved Yvette didn't answer right away. Instead, she walked to the balcony, letting the warm, soothing afternoon sunlight wash over her. The air felt soft and fragrant, the faint scent of blooming flowers carried by a gentle breeze that mingled with the rustling of leaves, all beneath the brilliant blue of the sky.

Jeremiah followed her, handing her a glass of orange juice as he joined her at the railing. He didn't push for an answer, simply waiting in silence.

Yvette glanced at him before taking the glass. She accepted it, though she couldn't help thinking she'd rather have something stronger, like wine.

Her gaze lowered, and she spoke with a casual tone, showing no emotion "When I was little, I spent a lot of tin the slums. One day, out of boredom, I saw a billboard and decided to audition for fun." "Someone from the Ross family recognized my musical talent and offered to train me. I stayed with them for a few years" Her words felt distant, as if she were telling someone else's story At the mention of the slums, Jeremiah turned cold. It was clear that Yvette had lived there before. He knew all too well what life in the slums was like-violent, lawless, filled with bloodshed drugs, and human trafficking. The thought of Yvette, so young and delicate, surviving in that kind of hell made his chest tighten. Pain flickered in his eyes as he imagined it.

Yvette noticed the shift in his mood.

She lifted her gaze slightly, herexpression unreadable. Her voice, e when she spoke, was cold, almost casual, as if recounting a memory that no longer held any weight for her.

"The slums weren't that bad." She continued, "The one with the hardest fists makes the rules, was there because my ancient combat skills were growing, and the fights were more exciting."

Jeremiah's tension and murderous aura surrounding him meltes instantly, replaced by a mix of amusement and exasperation Hel reached father hand, wrapping his fingers firmly around hers. He knew that Yvette never resorted to pitying herself. Only she could talk about brawling in the slums like it was skind of adrenaline-fueled pastime.
