Chapter 164
Chapter 164
The female pianist, Christian, dressed in a dark and elegant dark blue velvet dress, walked up to the stage and sat in front of the completely black piano, playing the famous song “Four Seasons” that she had created for the audience.
Everyone was intoxicated by the wonderful melody, and there was silence below the stage.
Although the piano music was very pleasant, Chloe’s eyes were focused on the dark blue dress that Christian was wearing.
This was the only high-end dress in the world. It came from the hands of the top international fashion designer, Sharon, who personally designed it.
Only such an international high-end talent, celebrities, and famous people, who were both good and good, were worthy of wearing the dress designed by Sharon.
Joseph was not in the mood to enjoy the performance at all. His fists were tight and trembling.
Throughout the whole process, he suppressed his anger and stared at Chloe’s beautiful face without blinking.
From time to time, Jerome and Chloe would lean their heads against each other and whisper softly.
She nodded slightly and smiled, as if she was very interested in what he said.
Joseph pursed his thin lips like a blade, his fists clenched so tightly that the blue veins were in a terrifying shape, and his handsome face was as white as a layer of frost.
He looked at her deeply.
Did she have so much to talk to that cultured scum?
They had been married for three years, and they met every day. Why didn’t she have so much to talk to him about? “Hiss… Why is it suddenly so cold? It’s too cold…” Vincent looked puzzled and shrank his neck.
Christian played a few more songs, and then led her favorite disciple, Miss Zoey, onto the stage. The girl on the stage was in the prime of her youth. Her beautiful maroon long curly hair hung loosely around her waist, and her petite figure was dressed in a gorgeous green muslin dress. On top of it, there were also speckles of silk flowers, which made her look like a forest elf.

yarn.
“Zoey! Zoey, look here! It’s big brother!” When Vincent saw his sister appear on the stage, he waved at her excitedly.
Joseph’s handsome face darkened, and he really wanted to kick him down.
However, Zoey on the stage clearly did not notice that her brother on the second floor had come to help. Her face that was like a full moon was filled with a confident smile, and she gracefully bowed to the audience below the stage.
Then, she sat in front of the piano like a noble swan, her ten fingers gently landing on the black and white piano keys, and the smooth notes followed.
Mozart’s Piano Sonata.
Chloe stared at Zoey on the stage, her eyes bright, but it was hard to hide her envy.
With her left hand on her knees, her five fingers danced along with the light melody.
Even the broken little finger seemed to be revitalized.
“I remember that when you were young, you played the piano well.”
Jerome only felt that Chloe’s secretly moving fingers were really cute, so she leaned over and whispered in her ear, “If you had walked the path of music, your level would have been far above hers.”
“It’s impossible.”
“It’s no longer possible.” Chloe clenched her fists, her fingers trembling.
Back in Quclecia’s battlefield, in order to drag the seriously injured Joseph back to the camp, the ligaments of the five fingers on her left hand were severely damaged. Her pinky finger was completely numb and powerless, and it was irreversible. She didn’t know how many times she had to do rehabilitation for the remaining four fingers, and how much sweat she had to shed to barely restore them to normal.
However, Chloe had never regretted saving Joseph.
Even though he had deeply hurt her, it was undeniable that they had once fought side by side for the peace of the world.
What she saved was not a jerk, but a soldier of the peacekeeping forces.
Her injury was not a shadow that could not be erased, but a supreme glory belonging to her alone.
After the concert was over, Christian and her beloved disciple Zoey bowed to thank the curtain, receiving flowers and applause.
“Miss Thorp, can you come with me to the backstage?” Jerome smiled and invited Chloe.
“Is there something wrong, Fourth Young Master?” Chloe asked.
“I have a private matter. My mother likes Ms. Christian very much, so I wanted to ask her for an autographed opera.” “Christian is a proud person. I’m afraid it will be difficult.”
“It doesn’t matter. As long as I have the opportunity to meet her and sincerely express my intentions, she should agree.” Jerome smiled gently.
Vincent was so proud that he couldn’t close his mouth all the way, holding a large bouquet of flowers and bringing Joseph to the backstage.
Unexpectedly, at the other end of the corridor, Chloe and Jerome walked side by side towards them.
The huge and empty corridor suddenly became narrow and narrow.
The atmosphere instantly became tense.
Chloe was secretly shocked. She unexpectedly met Joseph’s dark eyes and frowned in annoyance.
Jerome was obviously very surprised.
He pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses with his fingers, and his eyes flashed a brief coldness before he said shyly, “I’m sorry, Miss Thorp. I didn’t know he would be here before I brought you here.”
I don’t want the signature. Let’s leave first.
“It doesn’t matter. I’m fine.”
Chloe smiled indifferently and did not back down because of a certain person’s appearance. “There is no law in our country that has to take a detour when seeing your ex-husband, right?”
“Moreover, I also hope that you can get the signature and satisfy Mrs. Xavier’s small wish.”-
Jerome’s black and white eyes widened as he stared deeply at her. His heart was greatly moved.
However, his ex-brother-in-law’s expression was already dark and gloomy.
The distance between them was not too far, and Chloe’s voice had always had a penetrating power that was like water droplets and stone. He had clearly heard her words just now.
He had endured the entire concert from beginning to end, enduring until his internal organs were like boiling oil in a fire. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
At this moment, when he heard that she was so concerned about Jerome’s mother, he could no longer bear it. He urgently wanted to snatch it in front of Chloe and wanted to ask her,
‘How far have you and Jerome gone?”
‘However, what did all this have to do with him? He even thought about how he would be humiliated by her.’
They have divorced. They have already divorced.
Why is his heart always controlling his body, his nerves, his thoughts, making him almost lose control and want to walk towards her…
Suddenly, the big door of the dressing room opened.
“Second brother!”
A baby voice as tender as a skylark blew over, breaking the tense atmosphere.
Before Joseph could come back to his senses, he felt a flash in front of his eyes, and then his tall and straight body was wrapped up by this soft green mass.
Zoey hugged the man tightly like a sloth, and her pink and tender little round face rubbed against his clothes like a spoiled child. “Second brother, did you specially come to watch my performance? Do you want to give me a surprise?”
Joseph’s face was shocked, and his whole body was stiff. He kept looking at Chloe, whose face was as heavy as water, from the corner of his eyes.
Vincent did not notice anything wrong with his sister’s behavior. In his eyes, his sister treated Joseph like a child, acting cute
to him. It was normal.
But he forgot that this was not ten years ago.
Zoey was twenty-two years old this year. She had already become a slender and elegant little girl. She and Joseph were not
biological siblings. What they were doing now was really inappropriate.
Especially in front of Chloe.
“Second brother, paste your face —paste!”
Zoey’s thin and soft arms wrapped around Joseph’s strong waist, raising her little face to make a shameless request to him, enthusiastic and unrestrained, completely ignoring the fact that there were outsiders.
Or, just because there were outsiders, she became more and more unscrupulous, wishing to let the whole world know that she and Joseph were intimate relationships that others could not envy.
However, Joseph was as stiff as a rock, standing still, not giving Zoey any response.
From the moment Chloe appeared in his line of sight, his gaze had only stopped for her.
Zoey was sensitive and quickly noticed that Joseph’s attention was not on her at all.
She followed the man’s gaze and immediately saw Chloe standing not far away, as beautiful as a goddess descending to the world.
She could not help but be so jealous that her heart jumped and her eyes turned dark.
The natural enemy of beautiful women was always a woman who was more beautiful than her.
“Zoey, are you forgetting your own brother now that you have second brother?”
Vincent did not see the situation clearly. He curled his lips and was still jealous. “Your brother wants to post too. Come and satisfy me!”
“Hmph, there are so many girls around you. You should stick to them.”
Zoey smiled and raised her hand to touch Joseph’s knife-like cheek. “Big brother is so oily. I still like second brother. He is clean and refreshing. He is completely my cup of tea.”
Joseph’s brows suddenly tightened. He turned his face to avoid her hand. “Zoey, you…”
At this moment, the man suddenly saw.
Chloe’s black pearl-like eyes were calm as she walked towards him.
Joseph’s breathing suddenly stopped, and his heart beat so fast that it seemed like it was going to break through his chest…
