The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 152

The apartment was on the 16th floor.

After punching in the passcode and entering, Chloe found a spacious duplex. What really stole the show was a massive floor-to-ceiling window facing east. Standing up here on the 16th floor, she could get a bird's-eye view of the whole P City.

What really caught Chloe's eye though, was the black piano tucked into the corner of the window, its white gauze cover fluttering gently in the breeze.

Chloe couldn't resist and walked over, her fingers trembling as they brushed against the piano.

Her slender fingers formed a stark contrast against the black piano, the slick, cool touch of it reigniting a spark in her heart.

Opening up the lid, the black and white keys lay neatly arranged. Her fingers quivered slightly as they struck a beautiful note.

The note hung in the air, echoing the ripple of emotions in Chloe's heart.

She bit her lip, bent down, sat, and placed her hands on the keys, playing from memory the piece she'd heard in Damon's car - "Whispers of Autumn".

When the notes melded into a melody, Chloe's eyes welled up.

This feeling, it's been a long time since she last felt it.

To her, music was the purest thing.

But her past self didn't protect it well enough.

Looking at the fading night outside the window, the city neon lights started to flicker. Even though the city was still bustling, the soothing piano piece somehow managed to calm the heart.

She finished the piece without missing a beat or a note.

Even without sheet music, she could remember it thanks to the many years of memory training she had in F Country.

Just one piece of music was no trouble for her.

Chloe let out a gentle sigh, stroked the piano one last time, and then got up and went upstairs.

Half an hour later, she came back down.
