Maria was lying sideways on the hospital bed, watching Charles patiently peel grapes. She smiled happily, "Honey, look closely. I don't like eating skin.""I know."Charles finished peeling a grape, raised his eyes, and saw the triumphant gleam in Maria’s eyes.He chuckled and threw the peeled grape into his own mouth."Hey!"Maria complained, "Honey, didn't you peel it for me? How come you ate it yourself? You're bullying me!"Charles leaned forward with a smile, held Maria’s shoulders, and pressed his lips against hers dominantly…A grape was pushed into Maria’s mouth by Charles. Maria chewed it with a frown. After spitting out the seed, she looked at him angrily, "You are taking advantage of me!"Charles raised his eyebrows triumphantly, "I peeled the grape for you. How can I not receive some benefits?"As he spoke, he picked up another grape and started peeling it.Maria stared at him, pouting. When he finished peeling the grape, she lifted her head abruptly, "I'm not eating anym

Rivas immediately blushed and gave Andrew a glare."So what if I am? My whole life has been devoted to piano. I never had time to take on apprentices. Many people mock me for having great skills but being unable to teach others. When I'm gone, I won't even have a successor..."He glanced expectantly at Maria and said, "Ria, your piano skills are already quite advanced. Although you still have a way to go compared to us, I believe that after this training, you will be able to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with us. This is an opportunity. Give me and yourself a chance.""Humph..."Andrew sneered again, "Rivas, with your current status in the piano world, you could definitely become a mentor. Why bother taking Ria as your apprentice and bringing her to the training? That would lower your status quite a bit...""I said it!"Rivas was truly angry this time. He said through gritted teeth, "I just want Ria to be my successor. In this training, I will teach her everything I know!"Andrew disdain

When Mia woke up and learned from Eva that Andrew planned to accept Maria as his apprentice, her hatred for Maria deepened.Just the thought of Maria frequently interacting with Andrew and going to the Lesser family's mansion made her furious."Why? Why her?!"Mia sat on the bed, her face pale. There were shocking bruises on her fair neck. She pounded the bed with all her might like crazy."Bitch! Who does she think she is?! She's just a scheming woman! She wants to enter the Lesser family in this way!"Eva stood aside watching Mia indifferently and said casually, "Yeah, Mom and Dad seem to like her. If she becomes Andrew's apprentice, she will probably have a place in the Lesser family."A sly smile appeared on her lips, "Mimi, what you did today has disappointed Mom and Dad. I'm afraid that once Maria becomes Andrew's apprentice, you won't have any position in the Lesser family."As soon as Eva finished, Mia’s angry eyes instantly turned bloodshot. She raised her head abruptly and s

In the house, Old Master Lesser, Old Mrs. Lesser, Eva, and Andrew were all present, and even Eric Lesser, Andrew's younger brother who had rarely shown himself before, was there.Andrew would accept Maria as his apprentice today. The fact that so many important figures from the Lesser family were present showed that it was a big event for the family.Maria and Charles followed the butler in. When she saw so many people, she showed no signs of embarrassment on her face. Instead, she politely bowed to Old Master Lesser and Old Mrs. Lesser and then greeted Andrew and Eva.She didn't know Eric, but she still politely greeted him.Eric and Andrew had some similarities in their facial features, but Eric's bone structure was visibly bigger than Andrew's, making him sturdy and imposing. However, despite his age and constant socializing, he hadn't gained weight. He looked slightly younger as a result.He casually glanced at Maria and then his gaze fell on Charles face. A subtle glimmer passed

Mia was dumbfounded!The plane they were on today was the private plane of the Lesser family.If it wasn't for Old Mrs. Lesser doting on Andrew, they would never have been allowed to take a private plane to attend the training camp. As for Mia, she was just basking in Andrew's glory. She couldn't even dream of using the Lesser family's private plane, let alone see it.But Linda had her own private plane?!After hanging up the phone, Linda looked at Mia smugly and turned to Maria, "Maria, why don't you take my private jet? It will only take half an hour at most, and we won't be late."Maria blinked in surprise. She thought that the Lesser Family was already a top-notch prestigious family, but she didn't expect that Linda was rich beyond her dreams."Linda, we agreed to go together, and the plane is waiting. It's not necessary to go to so much trouble..."Andrew thought that Mia was being unreasonable. Linda had just arrived and didn't provoke her, but she lost her temper. He took a st
