    Chapter 1303 Setting Her Up


    “Hey, what event are you signing up for?”


    “Definitely piano!”


    “Are you going for ssical music then?”


    “I''m leaning toward ssical.”


    “In that case, I''ll go for contemporary.”


    “We''re all pianists, notposers. But this year, the president insists on having one of us participate in


    theposition awardpetition... It''s too...”


    “Who knows what''s going on in her mind? As long as it''s not me, I don''t care. Whoever''s stuck with it is


    going to be humiliated, so why would I bother with it?”


    As they were discussing, Andrea''s voice rang out again. “Quiet down, everyone. Let''s begin our


    meeting.”


    The entire conference room fell silent.


    “I''m sure you''re all aware that when ites topeting in the International lie Award, we, the


    Jadeborough Piano Association, have alwaysgged behind, especially inposition. If we don''t


    compete for theposition award this year, we''ll undoubtedly be ridiculed by other countries. As the


    president of the Piano Association, I''m deeply concerned about this. Therefore, I announce that


    Charlotte will bepeting for theposition award. Charlotte, you better submit yourposition to


    the International lie Award organizers and judges within a week.”


    Andrea''s words shocked the entire conference room, causing an uproar.


    “Oh my god! The president just singled out that girl from Jadeborough!”


    “It''s ridiculous! What talent can a girl from a small ce like Jadeborough have? We''ll be so


    embarrassed when she fails.”


    “We''re entering thepetition for awards. Even if we don''t get first ce, we might get second or


    third ce. It''s better than getting nothing and being humiliated.”


    Charlotte sat in her seat, her face pale. She hadn''t expected Andrea to be so forceful in making her


    sign up.


    She took a deep breath and slowly said, “Mrs. Taylor... I don''t want to participate.”


    “This decision was made after unanimous discussions among all the leaders of the association.


    Everyone has already selected other projects to enter, except you. Charlotte, are you saying you don''t


    want to bring glory to our country? Your mindset is quite backward,” Andrea said with displeasure. “This


    matter has been decided, and your objections won''t be tolerated.”


    “But...” Charlotte tried to say more but was interrupted by Winona. “Ms. Lynch, my mom is doing this for


    your own good. She''s giving you an opportunity. You better make the most of it! If you actually win


    some major award, don''t forget the support my mom is giving you today.”


    “Ms. Taylor, are you joking? Her? She''ll probablye inst.”


    “Coming from a small ce like Jadeborough, can she even win? Haha!”


    “Let it go, let it go. If she doesn''t win, it''s her embarrassment, not ours.”


    Andrea smiled dignifiedly. “Charlotte, you''re still young. Even if you don''t win this time, you can work


    harderter. You should be able to seed.”


    It seemed like Andrea was already convinced that Charlotte would return humiliated.


    A girl who thought she could rise just because she had known Ashlyn for a few days?


    She had even refused to help convince Ashlyn to ept her daughter as an apprentice.


    Andrea was determined to tarnish Charlotte''s reputation in the international pianomunity. She


    would like to find out how Charlotte was going to keep up with the innocent act from then on.


    Andrea had harbored resentment against Charlotte for a long time, believing that Ashlyn''s refusal to


    ept Winona was due to the negative things Charlotte had said about her daughter, sabotaging the


    situation.


    This International lie Award was crucial for almost every musician, a heavyweight international


    prize.


    If she failed in thepetition, she would be a global music industry joke.


    It could potentially derail Charlotte''s piano career, which had taken off when she was young, winning


    first ce in pianopetitions and gaining widespread recognition.


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    Andrea had always been intensely jealous, believing that Charlotte''s sess was not based on her


    true talent but rather because of Ashlyn''s excellent guidance.


    That''s why she desperately wanted to send her daughter to be Ashlyn''s apprentice.


    Having the reigning champion of pianopetitions turn out to be aposition flop and still insist on


    participating in thepetition would be quite the ironic twist.
