Chapter 1194 Can’t Even Compare to Him
If that happened, It wouldpletely rupture the rtionship between the Verkade and Quillen
families.
By then, even if the Verkade family managed to snatch the Heart of the Sun, they would still face
challenges from the Quillen family and the Holy Fire organization. Whether they could hold onto it was
uncertain, making it a disastrous move.
Gautier, however, didn’t take that route. At the moment, he wanted to use the opportunity to win the
lady’s heart. As the art of war said, it was better to win, people over than to conquer cities. Winning
people over was the best strategy.
On the other side, Emmanuel and Ashton also entered Willow.
The two, famished, immediately indulged in a sumptuous feast.
Suddenly, apuse erupted, capturing their attention. Emmanuel then noticed a baroque-style stage
featuring a grand piano on the upper right side of the restaurant.
Noticing the direction he was looking in, Ashton proudly said, “Are you also captivated by that piano?
But I bet you don’t know its origin, do you?”
As the daughter of the Summerton family, a business magnate, she had certainly experienced the finer
things in life. Although she couldn’t match Emmanuel in medical and martial skills, she wanted to
outshine him in knowledge and insight. Unexpectedly, Emmanuel promptly responded, “That’s the
Onman Crystal Piano. There are only three in the world, each worth about 2.5 million. It has a unique
sound, and I bet if I sit down to y, I could instantly be Chopin!”
“Y-You actually know?!” Ashton was instantly dumbfounded, both surprised and irritated. She couldn’t
believe how difficult it was to outshine this man even once. It was truly exasperating.
Emmanuel, on the other hand, was amused by her reaction. Being a Northern Region Wolf Warrior, he
traveled to many countries and executed numerous special missions. Naturally, he had knowledge
about globally renowned things. That said, he quickly ignored Ashton and focused back on the stage.
Right then, a man in a tailored suit walked onto the stage. With handsome features and eyes like gems
in the night sky, he exuded an elegant nobility inside and out. It seemed like he was about to y the
piano.
The previously quiet restaurant was now filled with excitement.
“Oh my! Isn’t that Mr. Gautier? Is he going to y the piano?”
“I heard the CEO of the Verkade Group is very talented. Are we lucky enough to hear his piano piece
today?”
“Mr. Gautier, I love you! I am your loyal fan!”
“Mr. Gautier, can you look at me? Just one nce!”
A group of young women in the restaurant went crazy, cheering for Gautier, resembling teenage fans
seeing a big

Ashton also found Gautier very charming at that moment, as if there was a faint glow surrounding him.
Unable to resist, she pped her hands together and eximed, “Emmanuel, look at him! When will
you shine like him?”
Little did she know that herment immediately sparked a disagreement at the neighboring table.
The woman there, after sizing up Emmanuel, disdainfully responded to Ashton’s words while trying to
initiate a conversation, “Don’t casuallypare any man to Mr. Gautier! Can this guy’s tastepare
to Mr. Gautier?”
Emmanuel had just returned from climbing cliffs and mountains for two days, and it was already quite
an achievement for him not to look like a beggar. Naturally, given his current attire and demeanor, he
couldn’tpare to the well-dressed Gautier.
“What are youughing at? You can’t evenpare to the guy at the next table!” The woman saw her
partner snickering and added a remark. Her partner’s eyes widened, seething with rage.
Emmanuel, however, paid no attention to these irrelevant people, and he even ignored Ashton.
To be honest, he didn’t resent what Ashton said. After all, Gautier was indeed very refined and much
more charismatic than Hubert. Moreover, Gautier’s piano skills were indeed exceptional. If he wanted
to enter the entertainment industry, relying on his looks, charm, and talent, he definitely had a great
chance of bing an A- lister.
Soon, an unexpected scene unfolded. After a prelude, Gautler elegantly stood up, wearing a charming
smile, and spoke affectionately to the audience below, “The next piece, ‘Nocturne No.2 In E t Major,’
is specially performed for my beloved woman, Mackenzie. I hope she can hear my sincere feelings!”
