Chapter 286 - 286: A Chance to Rise Above Everyone



“Miss Turner and Young Master Lawson?”

Connor was confused after hearing Zander’s words.

He wasn’t from the Phillips Family, so he naturally didn’t know how powerful Kelly and Adam’s background was.

However, the others present had envious looks on their faces. At this time, Connor had obviously received Kelly’s appreciation, which was why she let him go to the VIP room on the fourth floor.

Kelly had always loved musical instruments and was proficient in everything. She would often get some masters to teach her, and of course, she was also very generous to the masters who guided her.

Anyone who could go to the VIP room on the fourth floor to teach Kelly would get an enviable reward when they left.

Qahira stared at Connor with her fox-like eyes, feeling extremely jealous.

Initially, she thought that since her boyfriend, Shane, had already been exposed, she had nothing to be embarrassed about; after all, no matter how embarrassing Shane was, he would never be as embarrassing as Freya’s fiance!

But now, Connor had turned over a new leaf because of the piano and the guitar. He was even able to become a guest of honor for someone like Kelly.

The piano and the guitar were both very elegant arts! The money an ordinary pianist could earn in a year was unimaginable, so what would a master like Connor make?

“This Freya really knows how to scheme. Her fiance is clearly so powerful, yet she still asked him to pretend to be a poor loser. This is obviously done to slap my face!”

Qahira sighed in her heart.

At this moment, she no longer had any thoughts of continuing to compete with Freya. This was because everyone had witnessed Connor’s abilities. If she continued to make fun of a young man for being poor even though he had such accomplishments in the piano and guitar, wouldn’t that be asking for humiliation?

Connor was still hesitating whether he should go up or not. After all, he knew Kelly and was not interested in her.

“Connor, the Turner and Lawson families have very high standings in our Phillips family. If you can satisfy Miss Turner and Young Master Lawson today, it will be a great help to both yourself and the Phillips family!” Freya gently advised Connor.

She felt that Connor had a very high level of attainment in playing the piano and guitar. He should be able to play the piano since he had the opportunity to gain Kelly’s favor.

Connor’s future was definitely limitless. Moreover, he could also get to know the Lawson and Turner families. This was simply a good thing that killed two birds with one stone!

“That’s right, Connor. I heard that Miss Turner had offered five million dollars to hire someone to teach her how to play instruments. That woman is very rich. You’d better hurry up!” Maya shouted as well.

“Alright, i’ll go up and take a look!”

Since Freya and Maya had already said so, he was too embarrassed to continue refusing, so he walked towards the fourth floor.

Meanwhile, Zander, Freya, Priscilla and the rest followed behind Connor.

Ailee and Qahira hesitated for a moment before following them up to the fourth floor. They were both very curious as to why Kelly had called Connor over this time!

A moment later, Connor and the others arrived at the VIP room on the fourth floor.

The decorations in the VIP room were extremely luxurious, and it was all arranged in the style of an old Victorian-era room. After entering the VIP room, people would feel like they had traveled through time.

“Wow, this room is so beautifully decorated!”

Maya exclaimed as she stared at the interior of the reception room with her big, watery eyes.

“Yeah, I’ve never seen such a beautiful reception room!” Ailee said as she took out her phone to take photos.

“Why are you here, you fart?”

Maya knew that Ailee was on Qahira’s side, while she herself was on Freya’s side. Naturally, their relationship was not very good.

“This place isn’t owned by your family either. If you can come, why can’t I?” Ailee replied with a pout.

“Miss Turner asked to see Connor, not you. Why did you follow us up?”

Maya said as she walked towards Ailee, wanting to chase her away.

However, Priscilla suddenly stopped Maya and gently shook her head, indicating for Maya to stop messing around, so instead Maya glared at Ailee and did not say anything.

At this moment, Kelly and Adam walked out of the VIP room.

“Miss Turner, Young Master Lawson, I brought Connor here for you!”

When Zander saw the two of them, he quickly greeted them with a smile.

“Thank you.” Adam nodded lightly, but did not say anything more. Instead, he turned around and sat on the sofa.

Kelly walked up to Connor with a curious face. She sized him up and asked softly, “What’s your name?”

Before Connor could say anything, Zander replied, “Miss Turner, his name is Connor McDonald!”

“Did I ask you?” Kelly turned around and glared at Zander.

Zander was scared and quickly said, “Miss Turner, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have said anything. Please don’t lower yourself to my level…”

Kelly looked at Zander impatiently, then turned back to Connor and said, “Connor, you’re pretty good at playing the guitar. I heard from Mrs. James that you can play the piano too. Is this true?”

“I can play the piano, but I can only play a few songs on the guitar!” Connor replied.

“As long as you know how to play the guitar!” Kelly nodded, then asked, “What are you doing now?”

“I’m studying at Porthampton University!”

“You’re actually a student?”

After Kelly heard Connor’s words, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes. Then, she slowly said, “You’re so accomplished in piano and guitar at such a young age…that’s really amazing. 1 don’t like beating around the bush—right now, my art centre, Collective Stroke, is lacking a person in charge. You can come here to work tomorrow, and I’ll pay you 500,000 dollars a month. As for the school, you don’t have to go there anymore. i’ll find some connections to help you graduate!”

“Wow…”

Freya, Maya, Qahira, and the others were all shocked when they heard Kelly’s words.

No one expected Kelly to call Connor here because she wanted Connor to be the person-in-charge of Collective Stroke!

Collective Stroke was very famous in Davenport, and on top of that, Kelly would be paying Connor 500,000 dollars a month! Even Freya was a little surprised by such a job!

Qahira was even more envious!

If Connor could really become the person in charge of Collective Stroke, then he would no longer be a poor kid who delivered food. Instead, he would become an elite with an annual salary of one million.

Most importantly, if Connor became the person in charge of the Collective Stroke, he could use this opportunity to expand his social circle.

In other words, as long as Connor agreed, then whether it was his economic income or social status, he would receive a huge increase!

In Freya’s eyes, this was a chance for Connor to rise above everyone else!
