Throne of Magical Arcana

Inside the VIP restaurant.

There is a candlestick on each side of a long dining table, and the flickering yellow candlelight reflects an ambiguous warmth. With the soothing and melodious music played by the chamber band, it is unspeakably romantic.

"If it weren't for the rude and uneducated ugly man Grannuf in front of me, then everything would be perfect." Grace gracefully scooped up the red caviar and put it in her mouth, then looked up at Grannuf opposite, then The swollen face, thinning hair, and hideous appearance immediately made her sick. Even an ordinary fat man would be better than this one.

Glennuf pinched the thin stem of the glass, showing a smile that he thought was charming: "Grace, your temperament is more admirable than your appearance, especially when you play the piano quietly. Isn't it every day?" A girl with a decent musical talent is so charming?"

Grace almost retched, but there was a lot of pride in her heart. Although Granuf was in his forties, he was a rich man who could rank in the top 20 in Sturk City. Viscount Wright and other nobles have deep friendships and are powerful and wealthy men. Being chased by such a man, even if she is not tempted, is something to show off and be proud of.

"Ever since I became a student of Mr. Evans and became a 'musician', those men who used to look down on me have started to surround me... Like to conquer is indeed a common problem of every man." Grid Reese smiled reservedly while thinking, "Thank you for your compliment, Mr. Granuve."

Then she wiped the corner of her mouth with a white napkin: "Excuse me, I'm going to the bathroom."

Just as she stood up, the guard at the door of Graneuve stepped forward: "Miss Grace, the waiter informed us that there was something wrong with the bathroom in the small restaurant, so you can only go downstairs."

Grannuf said slightly angrily: "Why did something go wrong? What are the people in the restaurant doing?" He is actually the real owner of the restaurant.

"Mr. Graneuve, it's all right. No one cares about accidents. It's not far downstairs." Grace replied with "the cultivation that a musician should have".

Graneuve nodded appreciatively: "Grace, I think you are more attractive."

Grace shut her mouth tightly and only responded with a smile, lest she really spit it out. Then, led by the waiter in the small restaurant, she went to the bathroom on the first floor.

Pushing open the door is a full-length mirror, and in front of the mirror are two sinks. This arrangement is convenient for women to touch up makeup.

Grace, who came out of the ladies' room on the left, was standing in front of the sink to touch up her makeup. Looking at her radiant face, she couldn't help humming a cheerful melody softly.

This kind of melody is like her mood at this time. After a long and arduous trip to the Alto Music Festival, her life has become like a dream. Money, honors, praises and pursuits that she had never thought of before Come overwhelmingly.

After finishing her makeup, Grace whispered to her beautiful and charming self in the mirror: "At this time last year, you were still an ordinary musician with a haggard appearance and a bleak future. Aalto has completed his dream journey. At this time of year, you are already the Tulip of Sturk, a promising musician, who changed a three-story villa for his family, and was chased by many nobles and businessmen, living an unimaginable life before. luxury life."

"Grace, remember, it's all because you're the best piano player in the band, so it's you, not Piola, not Sharon, not Green and Lester they set foot on This position. You can't get carried away by life and forget about your music and your piano."

Then, her mouth moved silently: "All of this is because you met that talented musician, and your life now is like a flower on the edge of a cliff, the more beautiful it blooms, the more dangerous it is." Such worrying her It often appears, but it will soon be covered by a dreamlike and beautiful life, waiting for the judgment to come numbly in the joy and joy, just like now.

Grace's mood quickly regained joy, she packed her cosmetics and was about to leave, but when she looked up, she suddenly saw a handsome and calm young man with black hair and black eyes in the bathroom in the full-length mirror.

Her whole body immediately became stiff, with an expression of indescribable fear, and the leather bag in her hand fell to the ground, making a soft knocking sound of bottles and cans.

"I, Mr. Evans." Although Grace knew that she should pretend not to see it at this time, covered her face and walked out of the bathroom quickly, and then took her parents and relatives away from Stulk, but this long-awaited nightmare finally The arrival made her feel as if she was in endless fear, she lost control of both her body and her mouth, her teeth chattered like she was yelling in sleep.

Lucien walked to another sink, scooped up the water from the reservoir and poured it into it, and said with a slight smile, "Hello, Grace, I almost didn't recognize you just now, you have really changed a lot. Hehe , Knowing how to dress up and being in a good mood always makes people look beautiful.”

"Mr. Evans, I didn't expect that you came to Sturk, and there was no newspaper report!" Grace suppressed her fear a little, replied with a stiff smile, and shouted frantically in her heart, "He must not know! He must not Don't know now!"

Lucien turned his head and glanced at her: "Speaking of newspapers, I remembered that I read the "Sturk Daily" just now, and there was something about you..."

"He knows...he knows..." Grace saw only Lucien's moving lips, and couldn't hear what he said next, and then her eyes went dark, and she staggered and was about to fall.

However, she felt a strong arm holding her shoulder, and she didn't let go until she stood firmly.

Raising his head and looking at Lucien in front of him, Gray's face was pale and his whole body was trembling, sobbing and pleading: "Mr. Evans, I shouldn't pretend to be your student. It's because I'm too greedy and I can't bear the hardships of life. Please Forgive me, I will apologize and clarify tomorrow in the "Sturk Zeitung."

After saying this, all the strength in her whole body seemed to be completely drained. If she hadn't supported the sink, she might have fallen to the ground powerlessly, because once she was published in the newspaper, all her identities and status, all her money and The fans will all disappear, and not only will they become ordinary musicians that no one pays attention to, but they will also be cast aside and despised by countless people.

But she also understands that only a sincere and thorough apology at this time can avoid more serious consequences, such as being thrown into the city jail for fraud.

Lucien smiled gently and said, "Grace, you have been able to pretend to be my piano student for so long without being caught, which is enough to prove that you have a good piano talent, so I'm curious why you didn't rely on yourself, but took the risk of taking this doomed A path that will be exposed?"

Hearing that Lucien not only didn't scold, but asked the reason gently, Grace burst into tears. At the same time, she also faintly felt that she seemed to have a chance, so she replied while sobbing: "I was born as an ordinary civilian. Family, in order for me to study music, in order for me to go to Alto to pursue my music dream, my parents and relatives spent all their savings."

"After returning from Aalto, we were just going to take the first step in the music road with the opportunity of Mr. Evans, who directed our Fantasia, but we got an unexpected performance with the help of Mr. Evans for the first time. The great success of your school, the accolades, money, pursuits, etc. are coming one after another, which dazzled our eyes, so we have the idea of ​​impersonating your students."

"At this time, because my parents couldn't make money, their small business went bankrupt, they were sued in the city court, and they were about to be thrown into prison. Therefore, I had no other choice, so I agreed with their proposal, and I, who is the best at piano, Pretending to be your student, Mr. Evans. After that, I fell into the swamp step by step, and I couldn't extricate myself."

Grace stared at Lucien's face with reddish eyes, and begged, "Mr. Evans, I don't know how you can forgive me?"

After a pause, she gritted her teeth and said firmly, "I'm willing to do whatever you want me to do!" As long as Mr. Evans' forgiveness can be obtained, even the conservative self can exchange her body!

After more than a month of such a dreamy life, Grace knew that she didn't want to go back to the past at all!

Lucien saw that the progress was going well, and he did not waste himself in damaging the sewer of the VIP restaurant, so he nodded slightly: "Your experience is understandable, but cheating is always a bad behavior."

Just when Grace was feeling desperate, Lucien changed the subject: "By the way, do you know Mr. Graneuve?"

"Yes, Mr. Graniuff invited me tonight." Grace replied puzzledly. Could it be that Mr. Evans wants to get acquainted with a rich man like Graniuf? But he is the princess's music consultant, no lack of status or money.

Although puzzled, Grace still tried to seize every opportunity and exaggerated her relationship with Graniuff: "Mr. Graniuf is pursuing me." Then she thought for a while and said, "According to According to Sturk's custom, only the banquet in the restaurant outside can pursue romance."

"Grace, a friend asked me to send a note to Mr. Granuf. I would like to ask you for your help." Lucien smiled, "By the way, absolutely must not reveal my identity, just say A mysterious stranger you meet in the bathroom."

"Why..." Grace was about to ask why, but she swallowed it when she saw Lucien's smiling face. No matter the reason, as long as she followed Mr. Evans' orders, she would have the chance to maintain a good life. Hope, so she nodded without hesitation, "Please rest assured, Mr. Evans, I will definitely fulfill your orders."

Lucien handed Grace a tightly folded note: "Don't peek. If the final result is good, maybe I will consider coaching your piano skills."

"Really?!" Grace said in surprise, took a deep breath, patted her chest, and nodded solemnly.

After Grace touched up her makeup again and left, Lucien slowly checked out and left the restaurant.
