“That’s right. They still need to rely on us.”
Listening to the chattering noises of the crowd, Ewan felt like his heart was about to explode. With a low groan, he yelled, “All of you! Shut up! The pay for all of the IT specialists will be cut by half this month!”
F*ck! I employed these staff at a high price and each of them only knew how to talk. Look at me now! I just lost eighty million because of them.
If he were to find out the one behind this, he would skin them alive.
At the Jackson residence, the Jacksons were sitting at the table eating their meal. Glancing at Emily, Megan suddenly thought of something and asked, “That’s right, Emily. You came first in the exam this time, right?”
The reason why Megan had always liked Emily was that she never had to worry about her studies. Whether it was playing the piano or dancing, Emily always took the initiative to practice them.
In every lesson, the teachers would always praise her for Emily’s wonderful upbringing. Megan was always so proud of herself when it came to Emily.
Laughing uncomfortably, Emily hummed in a low tone.
Janet, who was sitting opposite Emily, let out a soft chuckle when she saw Emily’s reaction.
There was a hint of sarcasm in her laughter.
“What happened, Janet?” Grandma Jade was the first to ask.
Raising her eyes, Janet looked toward Emily teasingly.
Emily was very nervous at that moment. She was afraid that Janet would expose her.
Just when she thought that Janet was about to say something, she quickly interrupted. “Mom, I’ll fill more rice for you.”
Megan nodded as she heard that. “Okay.”
Glancing at Emily’s panicked form, instead of saying something, Janet only smirked.
Fortunately, Emily had been behaving herself recently; otherwise, she couldn’t blame her for being cruel.
When Emily was filling the bowl with rice, all she felt was a mix of emotions. All these years, she had been the only one to enjoy love from Megan. And now, Janet was taking it away, little by little, from her.
She was thoroughly ruined by Janet.
However, she had to endure everything. When she was good enough, Janet would become the person hated by everyone.
Her originally cloudy face turned back to normal the moment she spun around. The smile on her face was faint. “There you go, Mom.”
Nodding, Megan felt a little relieved. These few days, she had noticed the subtle changes in Emily.
As long as Janet didn’t mention anything from the past, they would be able to get along happily in the future.
Suddenly, Megan remembered something. With a faint smile, she said gently, “Emily, do you know about the Yobril Royal Academy of Music?”
“Yobril Royal Academy of Music?” Emily nodded. “Of course, I know. The Yobril Royal Academy Music is the top in the world. Everyone from the piano industry knows about it.”
Since Emily was young, she had shown extraordinary talent in the arts. Therefore, it wasn’t strange for her to have attended several piano classes.
With an anticipating expression, Megan continued, “Madam Lane told me that they’re seeking talents in Sandfort City.”
Megan had always been in the circle of socialites and that was why she was always so quick in receiving news that most people wouldn’t know about.
“Is that true?” Emily was shocked.
Laughing at her, Megan said, “Yeah. If you’re interested, I can ask your father to arrange a meeting for you.”
“Of course, I’m interested.” Emily’s eyes had brightened up like a diamond.
It would be great if the Yobril Royal Academy of Music had chosen her.
Besides, even though her level wasn’t yet up to par, she was already considered the best amongst her peers.
Especially when one were to compare her with Janet.
When she became the princess of the music industry, she would be able to choose any prince she liked.
By then, she wanted to marry the most powerful man in Asia and become the lady of the Lowry Family.
“Well, I’ll ask your father to arrange it.” Megan smiled.
If an artist could emerge within their family, they would become the pride of the Jacksons.
By then, she would be able to gain a foothold amongst the socialites and become the center of them all.
Seeing that Emily was so thrilled, Grandma Jade couldn’t help looking at Janet. “Janet, are you interested? If you want, you can meet up with them too.”
Janet was wiping her mouth because she had finished her meal. When she was about to say something, Emily interrupted with a soft chuckle. “Grandma, are you kidding? Janet hasn’t even touched the piano before.”
