Chapter 202 Shameless
“Me?” Yara frowned.
She had never played the piano since the last time Natalie played the piece, The Rain, six years ago.
“Mona, do I have to play the piano at the launch of the new map for the game? I can do anything else other than that. Can I not play the piano?” Yara asked.
“Yara, let me be frank with you. The performance at the auction is lauded and trending recently. The organizer of the press conference saw the post that said you were the pianist, so they want you to play the piano. Besides, Mr. Becker has even invited the dancer who performed that day as well…”
“What?”
Mona explained, “Don’t worry. That dancer was the main focus of the video. However, you will be the main focus of this upcoming press conference. Mr. Becker invited her to become a filler. If the press conference goes well, with the help of the marketing on the topic, you will gain even more popularity.”
Yara was tempted to accept the offer, but she was still hesitant. “My skills have deteriorated. You know that I haven’t touched a piano for a long time…”
“You’ve practiced since you were young, so playing the piano should be instinctive for you. I’ve asked Mr. Sullivan to help to play the piece in advance. Then, I’ll record it and play the audio during the press conference. You just have to put on an act and don’t let anyone find out that you’re pretending to play it.”
Finally, Yara was convinced. “Ms. Mona, thank you.”
“Yara, there’s no need to be so polite. Trust me. You’ll be the star of the press conference,” Mona uttered proudly.
“Yes, I will.”
With that, Yara ended the call and was overwhelmed with joy.
After she walked away, Clayton, who was sleeping at the side, tossed his blanket aside and smacked his lips.
He had heard about the dance performance from Xavian the other day.
This woman doesn’t memorize her script and asks stuntmen to replace her in her scenes. Now, she even pretends to be Mommy, the one who played the piano in the video. Sheesh! How shameless!
However, since Xavian told him that Natalie had her own ways to deal with the situation, Clayton would only wait and see how the wicked woman would make a mess of herself.
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.
The press conference of Nation Glory was grand, and the entire exhibition hall was beautifully decorated. Everything looked magnificent.
Nation Glory was a highly-rated game that almost all citizens in the country knew about.
The characters inside the game were exquisite, and the special effects of the characters’ skills looked fantastic and real. All of its players had an excellent gaming experience.
Two hours before the press conference commenced, the venue was already packed.
The reporters were ready with their cameras for the interview session during the press conference.
Meanwhile, Yara had put on a pink-colored costume. As she walked, the hem of her gown swayed, and the red flower drawn between her eyebrows made her appear more captivating.
Clad in a beige suit, Mona complimented, “Yara, you’re so beautiful today…”
Yara merely nodded in response.
Although she was satisfied with her appearance, she felt it was a pity that Samuel could not get there to watch her.
I won’t play the piano later, but I believe that Samuel will be attracted to me if he sees me on the stage.
As that thought crossed her mind, Yara said, “Ms. Mona, when I perform later, record it and send the video for me.”
“No problem.” Mona smiled. “I’ve arranged everything. Just perform at ease.”
“I will.”
Meanwhile, in a private room on the second floor of the place where the press conference was held, Natalie poured two cups of tea for Hans and Yana.
“Mr. Becker, are you sure you’re okay with letting me take over the matters tonight?” Natalie raised her teacup and said solemnly, “The press conference hasn’t started yet. I’ll have to apologize to you first.”
