Everyone at the scene was bewildered at the news.
Mentor? Ms. Saunders’ mentor is Mr. Powell? Are our ears deceiving us? Did we hear it correctly? Ms.
Saunders’ mentor is the president of the Piano Association? Seriously?
But why does Ms. Saunders look so calm while Mr. Powell is looking at her with ingratiation and
tolerance in his gaze? His adoration for her is overflowing.
Lucas didn’t like Caleb, to begin with, but was dumbfounded too when he heard the introduction.
This world-renowned guy is actually Ashlyn’s mentor?
Caleb had no idea about the bomb he just dropped in everyone’s minds.
He continued speaking with a smile, “I pleaded with her so much and almost got to my knees for her to
finally agree to learn piano from me for a month. She made leaps and bounds of improvement during
that one month and mastered every skill other pianists needed years to master. It was an impressive
sight, to say the least.”
His expression turned dour. “I was aghast when she snuck away after that, so I’d been searching for
her ever since. She’s usually very cold and distant. So I’m sure she must have caused you all a lot of
trouble. Tonight’s dinner will be on me to show my gratitude to all of you for taking care of my friend.”
Even though James and the rest were respected in the community and had experienced numerous
circumstances, the current situation still had them flabbergasted.
Not just them, but the rest of the crowd, celebrities, the upper crust of Lake City, and even some
audience who hadn’t left yet were thunderstruck too.
They thought they were dreaming the whole thing up.
Does the president of the Piano Association have to use such a humble tone to treat them to a meal?
He even accused Ashlyn of being cold and pleaded with her to take piano lessons from him?
If the chance was offered to others and not Ashlyn, they would’ve been on their knees with gratitude.
They would’ve been ecstatic if it was the vice president, let alone the president.
Yet, Ashlyn needed Caleb to plead with her to learn?
Standing close by, Tinsor couldn’t keep his calm any longer and slapped Winsor on his back. “Winsor,
hurry up and pinch me. My goddess is way too awesome! I can’t believe it!”
Winsor shot a death glare at him and smacked him on the head. “Shut up!”
So what if Mr. Powell is her mentor? My goddess deserved the best of everything in this world anyway.
Lucas narrowed his eyes at Caleb and said with a domineering tone, “Since you’re her mentor, then
you must be like a father to her.”
I won’t allow even a forty-something man to have any thoughts on pursuing Ashlyn.
After a brief shock, Caleb laughed. “You must be Mr. Nolan. You’re domineering. I like it! Only a person
like you can keep Ashlyn tethered.”
His words soothed Lucas’ ruffled feathers.
Ashlyn rubbed the spot between her brows resignedly. It doesn’t matter the current Lucas is a new
personality that is developed recently, he still has the same bossiness running through him as usual.
“It’s already late. So let’s go have dinner.” Delight blossomed within Caleb, especially when he saw
Ashlyn had so many friends and family with her. He was happy for her.
And here I thought she would be a loner with her character.
James was well aware that the world-renowned pianist was only treating them to dinner because of
Ashlyn.
As the mayor of the city, he still had his dignity. With a smile, he said, “You’re too generous, Mr. Powell.
Since you’ve come to Lake City, we should be the ones treating you to dinner instead.”
Caleb laughed heartily. “It’s okay. Please let me do the honors instead.”
He shook James’ hand. “I can tell at first glance that you’re a good bureaucrat that loves your citizens,
and you must have treated Ashlyn well.”
James had heard many flatteries over the years, but it was a first to hear such a straightforward
compliment.
Being the humble man that he was, he replied, “You flatter me too much, Mr. Powell.”
Soon after, Caleb started complimenting everyone he met gazes with.
