The Son-In-Law Shot to Fame novel Chapter 537

“Really? She can play the piano better than you?” The man was a little surprised, as Natalie had risen to fame as a talented pianist in Yorksland. She would be performing live on stage at the Supreme Gala tonight.

“That was the case in the past, but I'm not sure about it now. Jennifer, if I recall, you stopped taking classes at Cultural Palace after receiving those awards. I heard your family stopped you from taking piano lessons because you guys couldn't afford it. I can't remember if it was the tuition fees or piano that broke the bank, though.”

Piano lessons were really expensive, and Jennifer's family was not financially doing well back then. Her parents only agreed to let her take piano lessons for a year because she kept begging them for it.

Linda had never considered letting her become a pianist, as she did not think the income generated would be enough to cover the costs.

A couple of trophies was all Jennifer got after winning those city-level piano competitions, so pursuing a career as a pianist did not seem very practical.

Besides, Jennifer would need to practice a lot at home if she wished to take her piano skills to a higher level. Naturally, the idea of forking out a huge sum to buy a piano did not sit well with Linda.

She would rather buy Kevin video games with that money than buy Jennifer a piano.

Not being able to become a pianist was one of Jennifer's biggest regrets.

She never expected to run into Natalie at the Supreme Gala, let alone have the latter bring up her painful memories in front of all those people.

Jennifer kept quiet with her head held low, but Natalie refused to stop there. “What are you doing here, Jennifer? The Supreme Gala isn't some public party that anyone can just attend. How did you get your ticket?” she pressed on.

Although Natalie isn't as talented as I am when it comes to playing the piano, she was able to pursue her career as a pianist thanks to the support of her family.
