Chapter 860


    When everyone on the scene came back to their senses, they broke out into thunderous apuse.


    No one paid any attention to Alma anymore, and she was just aughing stock through and through.


    Some of the societydies immediately swarmed around Maja on stage.


    “Ms. Pennyfeather, you seem to be talented in everything you do. Now we see why Herbert values you


    so much.”


    “My son needs a violin teacher. Could you possibly tutor him in your spare time?”


    “Ms. Pennyfeather, we hope you can attend our tea party tomorrow. We would be delighted if you


    coulde.”


    A woman’s dignity was not given by men but fought for by herself.


    If Maja were still depending onn’s help tonight, maybe these people wouldn’t be so friendly towards


    her.


    She waved with a smile.


    “I’m really sorry, but mypany has been quite busytely.”


    “That’s alright, we all know about yourpany. Feel free to reach out to us for future coborations.”


    Maja continued to wave at the crowd with a smile.


    “Alright, thanks,dies.”


    There were so many people around her, and some even grabbed her hand like they were family.


    “You should attend more of these parties. We all thought you were only good at paint, but we didn’t


    expect your violin skills to be so impressive.”


    “There’s just too much going on at thepany.”


    “You shoulde more often, Ms. Pennyfeather. I’ll have my daughter learn painting from you.”


    “Alright.”


    There were too many people greeting her, and it took Maja a good ten minutes to squeeze her way to


    Shawn.


    Shawn stood there,pletely stunned, unable to snap out of his shock.


    Maja quickly greeted Bruce.


    “Bruce, do you think my performance was alright? I have to leave early now.”


    Bruce held a ss of wine, smiling kindly at her.


    “Now I seen why Herbert liked you. You’reposed and not arrogant. Good, I will have Shawn’s

    endorsement contract sent over tomorrow. But Penny, I must say, this is Ford’s first time choosing a


    global spokesperson. We can’t afford any negative news, so you must keep a tight rein on your


    artists.”


    “I understand, Bruce.”


    Maja exchanged a few more polite words with him, then started to head outside.


    What she didn’t know was thatn, Fitch, Tyler, and Phelps were all standing by the garden path.


    When everyone was making fun of Maja earlier, Tyler wanted to help but was stopped byn.


    “Take it easy.”


    He didn’t expect to see such a scene. He was proud of Maja but also felt uneasy.


    He had just started thinking about pursuing her again, but Maja, like a finely cut ruby, suddenly shone


    brightly, attracting everyone’s attention.


    This was a terrible feeling for him.


    Tyler was stroking his chin, deep in thought, then he said, n, I must say, you have pretty good


    taste.”


    At least, Maja’s stunning performance on stage undoubtedly shocked everyone.


    Many people at the scene were still immersed in her rendition of The Trill of the Devil, Alma’s choice of


    song for Maja was indeed quite fitting.


    It touched people’s hearts instantly.


    From today on, in everyone’s eyes, she was no longer justn’s ex–wife but a talented artist.


    Tyler gently nudged Phelps with his elbow.


    “Phelps, what do you think?”


    Phelps was dragged to this party, and now he could only look down.


    “She’s outstanding, beautiful, and charming.”


    Tyler quickly put his hand onn’s shoulder.


    “Since even Phelps thinks so, I bet many men here would think the same, and it’s rare to see a woman


    who can y the song.”


    Everyone here was not blind. They not only saw Maja’s musical talent but also her determination and


    her grace under pressure. Even when her own performance outshone Alma’s, she didn’t turn around


    and belittle her.


    Her victory was brilliant. Who knew how many hearts had been lit up by the light she radiated.
