NovelEnglishChapter 226: Who Are You? Seeing Tina and the others about to leave, Jared frowned. "What happened?" "Tina found someone trying to sneak in with a knife and stopped them," Elsa said angrily to Jared. "But as soon as Ms. Ward's daughter cout, she blamed Tina without understanding the situation and even said Tina would dirty the floor here!" Jared's stern face darkened, his deep eyes scanning Willow. "Is that so?" His voice was cold and indifferent.
"Yes," Heath Garrison added, "then Willow cout and defended the fan with the knife, saying she liked such fans and that Tina was meddling." "Defending such fans?" Hayden, who had always been Serena's lackey, now supported Tina just as fervently. "There must be crazy fans like that all over this concert. Who would dare to attend?" "Such a concert isn't worth attending," Jared said, holding Tina's hand. His gaze swept over Willow and Lily Ward before he turned to leave with Tina. "It would only dirty your ears." Lily Ward's face turned pale; she hadn't expected Jared to be so blunt. She thought there was sconnection between them.
"Jared!" Willow's face darkened as she spoke. "How can you talk tolike that?!" Jared had been a crippled playboy in Ashbury, and no matter how much Logan pampered him, Willow never took him seriously. Even though Jared could now walk and Logan had announced him as the next head of the Farrell family, Willow couldn't change her perception of him overnight.

"Mr. Farrell," Lily Ward couldn't help but step forward. "May I have a word with you?" "Who are you?" Jared frowned, his dark eyes devoid of emotion, his face icy.
"I... I'm Lily Ward from TIC Research Institute!" Lily Ward stared in disbelief. They had met several times because Mr. Daryl funded her institute, but Jared didn't seem to remember her at all.
She thought Jared would remember her talent vividly; otherwise, why would he choose her institute for such an important project? "You," Jared finally recalled the nLily Ward. His master had left an unfinished project that he had personally assigned to TIC Research Institute for continuation.
He looked at Lily Ward indifferently. "You have too much powder on your face; I didn't recognize you." "Pfft!" Hayden couldn't help but laugh. Mr. Farrell was always sharp-tongued.
Lily Ward's face twisted in anger and embarrassment. She had fantasized about meeting Jared outside the institute countless times, imagining how he would be moved by her beauty. But she never expected such humiliation. Jared hadn't even remembered her face! And today, despite her elaborate appearance, he dismissed her with a comment about too much makeup.
Tina watched the exchange between Jared and Lily Ward silently, finally understanding the source of Lily Ward's inexplicable hostility towards her. This man certainly attracted attention, but she didn't like anyone coveting what belonged to her. She let out a cold laugh and took Jared's arm, looking at him flirtatiously. "Uncle, I'm tired." "Tired? I'll carry you," Jared said tenderly, melting at her calling him 'uncle.' Ignoring everyone else, he scooped Tina up in his arms and walked down the theater steps amidst gasps from onlookers.
Tina had only intended to irritate Lily Ward and make Jared leave quickly but was surprised by his manliness. Feeling a bit embarrassed, she let herself be carried away in silence.

Annabelle and Jasper Reed exchanged thoughtful looks as they watched Jared carry Tina away.
"Willow," Annabelle said coolly, no longer as friendly as before. "I'm tired; Jasper will takehome." "Yes, Mom," Jasper Reed supported Annabelle without waiting for Willow's response and walked down the steps together.
Willow's expression changed; she had noticed the close relationship between Tina and the Reeds but hadn't expected them to disregard her feelings because of it.
Despite her long-standing relationship with the Reed family and Lily Ward treating Emrys' injuries Garrett Esther. Audrey Woodwind and Damian were left standing awkwardly before exchanging glances and apologizing to Willow before following Annabelle and Jasper Reed. Today's piano concert had turned into a farce destined to be a joke. Staying any longer was pointless.
Watching everyone leave one by one, Willow bit her lip in frustration but held back her anger. She realized that her supposed close relationship with the Reed family was fragile at best. At this moment, a black van pulled up at the theater entrance steps, and Sutcliffe emerged in a black tailcoat with his manager.
