He actually had feelings for Nora, although Cheyenne was better looking and more accomplished than Nora. However, she had a strong personality, which he didn't like.
But on second thought, this was the first time in his over twenty years of life that a girl had actively confessed to him. So he should be tactful when he refused, avoiding being too direct. Even a strong woman like Cheyenne would feel sad if a guy rejected her.
However, Jerry was overthinking it. Cheyenne had invited him here for a different reason. But she wasn't planning to confess.
There was no way she'd be interested in a guy with a face full of acne.
...
At the Vintage Club, Table Number Three in Hall Number One.
Finally, the dishes were served.
The long table, covered with white velvet tablecloth, was adorned with fragrant red roses. The candles emitted a soft, elliptical glow, reflecting on the highball glasses. Two steaks and a bottle of authentic Bordeaux wine from France were set carefully, making them look extremely appetizing in this refined environment.
Not far away, a blond and blue-eyed young man was dressed in a black tuxedo, sitting in front of a black-and-white piano. He played Schubert's Serenade passionately. Many other customers in the hall watched him, and once the piece was finished, the hall was filled with loud applause.
Mikaela was no exception. She had attended a two-year piano class, but due to her family's financial constraints, she had to quit. She had taken exams and earned a Level 4 piano certificate.
Sean, on the other hand, was a genuine prodigal rich second-generation guy. In addition to playing video games online, his life was limited to car racing and drinking with his buddies.
So, when he saw his girlfriend applauding another man, Sean felt quite upset. What was so special about that guy? He could only play the piano.
Shortly after, the pianist who had played came over and stood in front of Mikaela.
With a handsome, sunny face, he asked, "Miss, I noticed you were enjoying my music earlier. May I invite you to play a piece with me?"
What?
Flirting with his girlfriend right in front of him!
What piano playing?
He could see it clearly; this was about flirting!
That flirting expression and gestures were so annoying.
Just as Mikaela was about to agree willingly, Sean suddenly stood up and forcefully pushed the man aside. In a fit of anger, he refused the man's offer and said loudly, "Get lost! My girlfriend doesn't know how to play the piano, and she won't play a piece with a server."
