That melody was so familiar to him that he could recognize it instantly.
Joanna’s performance was really off
Yasir stayed silent, quietly observing joanna’s suddenly frozen expression.
“I forgot at this time, but I’ll play it for you next time, she stammered, grasping at straws. Little did she realize. Marlon’s patience was already wearing thin.
She still had no clue what song was supposed to awaken him!
This unexpected question threw her completely off balance.
All the hard practice over this time felt like it had suddenly become a joke.
Hayden stared at her with intense, deep eyes, Play it now.”
Joanna froze on the spot, not understanding why Hayden had suddenly become so insistent
“He doesn’t know the truth does he? The more she dwelled on it, the more unsettled she became. Her mind felt like a whirlpool, chaotic and spiraling out of control.
Vasar stood silently nearby, observing Joanna’s frozen expression with quiet amusement
Yasir finally broke his silence. “Could it be, Miss Joanna, that you can’t even play the song?” he asked, his timing perfect, his tone dripping with
Yasir found Joanna’s pretentious act laughable, especially since everyone knew she had stolen the spotlight from someone else
Yasir thought. Ugh, I hate anything fakef
“L“Joanna was already unsure how to react; now, she was like a cat on a hot tin roof, restless and flustered
Her gaze darted nervously through the room until it landed on her mother, Sophia, who stood among the crowd, watching her intently. That sharp, calculating look reminded Joanna of their plan, and she soreled herself.
‘No, I can’t fall apart now. I just need to get Hayden to go upstairs with me. Once that happens, everything will fall into place, she resolved clenching her fists tightly.
Taking a deep breath, she widened her eyes with a deliberate intensity and looked directly at Hayden. “Do you want the answer!” she asked, her voice trembling just enough to sound earnest
Hayden furrowed his brows slightly, intrigued but not convinced. He said nothing, waiting for her to continue.
Joanna seized the opportunity, her voice turning urgent. There are too many people here. Let’s go upstairs, and I’ll tell you everything” Her fists clenched tighter as she forced the words out.
Her eyes sparkled with a desperate determination.
Hayden considered her for a moment, his expression unreadable. He remembered Yasir’s words from earlier and decided.
He thought, If I want to give Yvonne a proper explanation, I need to resolve this matter first”
“Fine,” he uid, his voice calm and detached.
Yasir’s eyes widened in shock.
“You’re actually going?” he asked incredulously. Can’t you see through her motives? If the were truly open about it, why find a place to lie to talk? he wondered
Hayden turned to him, his expression serious. “You’re right. It’s time to put
to put an end to this.”

With that, Hayden followed Jourma out of the room, leaving Yasir behind, staring blankly like a statue.
He thought, ‘Did I say something wrong?”

Chapter 126
When I returned to the dance floor, Linstinctively scanned the crowd, searching for Hayden.
1 thought. Did Joanna really take him upstairs”
Just as suspicion began to take root in my mind, my thoughts were interrupted by a sharp, mocking voice behind me.
“Looking for Hayden, aren’t you? Don’t bother. Right now, he’s busy accompanying my daughter, Sophia said, her smug tone dripping with malice as she approached me with a glass of red wine in hand.
I turned to face her, my heart sinking. I thought, ‘So, this was their plan all along a trap set by Joanna and her mother, targeting Hayden
Still, I couldn’t help but question. If Hayden likes Joanna that much, why would she go to such lengths? Couldn’t she just ask for what she wants?” What
more do you want?” I asked her calmly, though my voice carried an edge. “You’ve already gotten everything you wanted”
“Don’t play dumb with me,” Sophia snapped, her expression darkening. You still refuse to divorce Hayden, clinging to him like a leech. Don’t think I don’t know what you’re after!”
Her accusatory tone piqued my curiosity. I raised an eyebrow and asked, “Oh! Then tell me, what exactly do you think I’m after?”
“Isn’t it obvious The Parker family fortuner Sophia sneered, pointing her finger at me. “I know you ve been secretly buying the Jackson Group shares. But so what! It’s all for nothing. Hayden will soon marry Joanns, and everything you’ve done will be in vain!”
I stared at her coldly, a smirk tugging at my lips. I thought, “This woman really thinks she has it all figured out
Glancing upstairs. I let out a soft laugh and said, “And how can you be so sure Hayden will marry Joannat He hasn’t even divorced me yet. Doesn’t seem like he’s that into her, does it?”
I knew Hayden had feelings for Joanna, but I deliberately said this to provoke Sophia. I thought. If I push her buttons, maybe I can get her to reveal #something useful
To my surprise, the fell for i
“Don’t get too cocky Sophia spat, her voice rising. “Let me tell you something – Joanna and Hayden weren’t even supposed to cross paths. But your father couldn’t stop bragging about his ‘perfect daughter who’d married into wealth like some fairytale princess.
“Your picture–perfect family made me sick! If it weren’t for him, I never would have encouraged Joanna to get close to Hayden.
She lifted her chin arrogantly and took a sip of wine, clearly reveling in her victory.
Yosef asked her not to drink. She wouldn’t drink openly, but behind the scenes, she did whatever she pleased.
The calm fch before was now completely turned upside down!
I asked, “So, you’re saying you were jealous of my mother and took her husband?
Sophia continued, her voice dripping with scorn “Your mother was so naive, always treasuring that worthless man of hers. It was laughable.”
That’s human nature for you, once you have something, you don’t value it anymore,
But what you can’t have always seems the best
I clenched my fists, anger surging through me. I shouted, “Shut up! Who are you to talk about my mother like that?”
“Oh, getting upset now, are we?” Sophia taunted, her mugness unwavering. “Don’t forget, I’m carrying your little brother. If you so much as touch me, your father won’t forgive you.”
Her hand rested protectively on her stomach, using hier pregnancy as a shield, I thought. She’s truly despicable,
I took a deep breath, my voice cold and steady. “How exactly did y
1 you deal with my mother?” I asked, my heart pounding in anticipation.
Sophia smirked, twirling a strand of her hair as if reminiscing. “Did I even need to do much I sent her a simple text, telling her that her man was enjoying a lot spring with me,
“Who would’ve thought she’d jump off; a building that very night With such fragile nerves, it’s a wonder she’s made it this far.
Sophia had planned a hundred ways to take Yvonne’s mother down. But who would we thought that just the first move would completely finishi Yvonne’s mother off…

Later. Sophia married into the affluent and influential family.
The ease of it all corn surprised her.
I stared at her, my chest tightening, thought, She destroyed my mother’s life with such ease and feels no remorse My fury erupted like a storm
Without thinking. I grabbed the wine glass from her hard and these its contents in her face.
Sophia screamed, her proud expression twisting in one of shock and
“Yvonne! You maniac she shrieked
Her outburst quickly attracted a crowd, including my father,
He rushed over, alarmed, and embraced Sophia, wiping the wine from her face. “What happened here?” he demanded, his voice frantic “I was gone for just a moment, and this is what Temme back to?
Sophia’s demeanor shifted instantly. She collapsed into his arms, her voice trembling as she pointed at me. “She, she threw wine at me!”
