Chapter 118 Giving Awards
(like Abbigail’s song more. Putting aside the front and back parts, the climax part is really impressive! It’s very
inspiring”
also like Abbigail’s song, but I only like the climax part
Patricia walked down the stage and heard someone say this. Her nails were in her palms, but she still looked calm
on the surface She smiled and nodded to everyone
She had to admit that the climax part of Abbigail’s song was really good. Her level of writing music was definitely
above hers! However, it was a pity that the front and back parts of the song were not good enough, so Abbigail
ended up in second place
When Abbigail heard that everyone liked her song, especially the climax part, she was happy and excited, feeling
that she was in the
limelight.
“The eight prize winners have already played their songs. I believe that everyone has a further understanding of
their ranking.
“Next is the most important part of our ceremony, giving awards.
“Mr. Tripp Lester, a famous piano master, will give awards to people in fourth to eighth place!”
The audience burst into enthusiastic applause.
Tripp buttoned his suit jacket and gracefully went on stage to give the winner awards one by one.
After they got off the stage, the host picked up the microphone again and said passionately, “Next, Ms. Malia
Ballard, the head of the Piano Association, will give awards to the top three!”
The applause down the stage was even louder.
The third-place winner Celia Lomas, second place winner Abbigail, and first place winner Patricia left their seats and
walked towards
the stage.

Along the way, Abbigail waved to the crowd and nodded at Patricia, but Patricia did not seem to notice her. Patricia
did not respond but waved to the others and smiled.
After Malia went on stage, she distributed the championship trophy to Patricia, distributed another trophy to Celia,
and then looked at Abbigail with a cold gaze.
It was as if she was looking at a thief!
The host was stunned for a moment and hurnedly tried to smooth things over. “Ms. Ballard, this is the second place
winner… You forgot to give her the trophy…”
Abbigail looked a little embarrassed, but there were so many people watching downstage, and the cameras of the
reporters were focused on them. She smiled and maintained her politeness ‘Ms. Ballard, I won second place in this
competition. Im Abbigail Tate.”
“I know.”
Malia’s tone was very cold, and her gaze was sharper than before.
When Abbigail mentioned “second place”, Malia’s eyes were so sharp. Malia wanted to expose her lie.
Everyone was a little confused. Even the host did not know what had happened. He felt that Malia looked at Abbigail
like an enemy….
He could only use his eyes to hint at the girl who was holding a trophy next to him. The girl understood and smiled.
She handed the trophy to Malia. It meant that the trophy for second place was here and could be given to Abbigail
Malia stood still. Her eyes were cold to the extreme.
“You don’t deserve the trophy for second place!”
The crowd burst into an uproar
Even Abbigail’s face changed instantly. She was extremely embarrassed.
Tyrell and Lindsey stood up at once. What was going on here?
Even Davon was stunned. He could not believe that Malia, who had always cherished young talents and was
amiable, would say such
words!
“Ms. Ballard, what do you mean by this?”
“Could it be that you heard Abbigail’s song just now and thought that she could get a higher ranking?” the host said
with a smile,
trying to smooth things over.
The audience, who had thought that there was something wrong with Abbigail’s tune, heaved a sigh of relief at this
moment.
Ms. Ballard thinks Abbigail can win first place? Patricia wondered.
Patricia, who was beside them, subconsciously clenched the championship trophy. She thought, no way. Ms. Ballard
would not
announce that Abbigail was more qualified to win the championship in front of everyone, right?
“Let me ask you.”
Malia did not echo the host. Instead, she looked into Abbigail’s eyes and asked word by word. “The song you played
just now was composed by yourself alone?”
Abbigail had already realized something. She felt guilty to the extreme. Her heart was beating like a drum, and her
body felt weak. “Of
of course…”
“In other words, from the beginning to the end, you came up with every tone yourself. It has nothing to do with
anyone else?”
Abbigail almost could not stand steadily. She did not understand what Malia meant. She wondered, did Malia know
that she copied the climax part of Paige’s song? So she questioned me in public?
No. Impossible. Malia is a big shot. How could she know someone like Paige?
Unless Paige said something to her, otherwise….

Abbigail intended to deny it. The best way now was to divert people’s attention elsewhere!
“If you think I’m just a daydreamer because I admire you and want to be your disciple, I’m sorry about that.”
She tried to remain graceful with pride. “You just said that if you didn’t want a disciple. Even if you plan to take in a
disciple, you won’t accept the Tate family. I don’t know what the Tate family did wrong… But you are a senior, and
you have the right to take in a disciple you like… I understand, and I won’t force you. I even feel that I’m not good
enough and thus can’t get your favor
“But just now, you sald in front of so many people that I didn’t deserve to wear the clothes or jewelry by PQ
Fashion. You may not know this, but have always taken you as my idol. I desperately learned the piano to be closer
to you…”
With just a few simple words, she had turned Malia into a rude, bullying, cold, and ***** person!
This was the first time Malia had met such a scheming girl, who was young and crafty!
“I didn’t expect Ms. Ballard to be such a person. Abbigail tried her best to learn the piano and wanted to get close
to her. It was fine if she didn’t want a disciple, but she was so mean. Abbigail must be sad.”
“I think Abbigail looks pretty in the clothes by PQ Fashion. Isn’t Ms. Ballard a busybody? What does Abbigail’s
dressing have to do
with her?”
“It’s OK if Ms. Ballard doesn’t support and help the younger generation, but she deliberately embarrassed a young
girl on such an important occasion…”
“I think Ms. Ballard is uncultured…”
L
“Fortunately, Abbigail is strong. After all, she is a rich lady. She’s more generous than ordinary people…”
Most of the audience was praising Abbigail.
Seeing that she had turned the table with just a few words, Abbigail looked at Malia with a hint of provocation in her
eyes.
