Chapter 670 Silence
“I’ll be the judge of that. There’s no need for you to worry about me, Ms. Lancaster.” Natalie narrowed her eyes,
staring at Jacqueline icily.
“Oh, I’m not worried about you. I’m merely taking pity on you.” Jacqueline shrugged and sighed. “It’s unfortunate
that I was the person who performed before you. It must be really stressful, right?”
Natalie pursed her lips in response and stared at Jacqueline, annoyed.
“Why are you staring at me like this? You look like you’re going to eat me alive. Or perhaps, are you having cold
feet and thinking about quitting? If I were you, I’ll think of an excuse to leave and avoid embarrassing myself.”
Natalie glanced at Jacqueline’s mocking gaze. “Are you done? If you are, I’ll be leaving for the stage now.”
“Tsk. How stubborn…” Jacqueline raised the corner of her lips and chuckled. “You should thank me for giving you
the opportunity to perform today.”
Hearing that, Natalie froze.
So, it was Jacqueline who engineered this! I knew this was not a coincidence!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe must have planned this so that I would embarrass myself in front of everyone.
We could have left each other alone. But since she chose to pick a fight with me, I shall play along then!
“Thank you.” Natalie smirked, her gaze cold.
Jacqueline was dumbfounded. She did not expect that Natalie would actually thank her. Is she out of her mind?
She’s about to make a fool out of herself on stage. Is she acting like this because she’s giving up?
“You…” Jacqueline gritted her teeth.
She glared at Natalie’s departing figure as fury boiled within her.
How dare she speak to me like this! I would love to see what’s so special about her!
Natalie walked to the middle of the stage, and almost instantly, she could feel the crowd’s gazes settling on her.
She recalled that in the past, Yara would always be sick and she had to impersonate her sister to participate in
numerous competitions, winning many trophies in the process.
It had been six years since Natalie stood before an audience.
She was joining that night’s event on behalf of Yandel.
As such, she came unprepared, without any song, instrument, or attire.
Skipping the introduction, Natalie stood before the microphone, cleared her voice, and started singing.
The song she chose was the “Melody of Water.”
The full moon is rare as I stood under the tree.
Hoping for your attention.
If I could hold your hand, no time is too short.
So long as we are together, loyal and in love.
The tenderness is all that mattered.
All worries are gone.
It all feels like a dream.
As I stood by myself, I lift my head and stare blankly in the open, enduring the pain alone.
Still hoping that you will come to me.
You frowned, puzzled by what is going on.
Turns out, you are clueless about my feelings.
Perhaps we missed out on so much in our last lifetime.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAnd now it’s too late.
In the end, we can only meet in our dreams…
Without any background music, Natalie’s bare, unfiltered voice resonated throughout the event hall.
Her voice was clear and modulated, without any technicalities. She sang in a local accent and her voice managed
to touch the hearts of many. Closing their eyes, the audience could imagine the lyrics coming to life.
Hundreds of years ago, a woman loved a man deeply.
However, she could not get married to him. Devastated, she could only hide under a tree as she witnessed the love
of her life getting married to another woman.
She was enduring the pain alone as her feelings were not reciprocated.
The song that Jacqueline sang was way too technical, and such complexity eclipsed her ability to express her
emotions singing the song. In contrast, Natalie’s singing was just perfect. It was not too technical and everyone
could enjoy the rich emotions that she sought to exude.
As the rippling emotions of the girl who had a tragic love story coursed through them, many female guests started
tearing up.
The song finally ended.
Silence ensued in the event hall.
