Chapter 199 How could Jasmine not see through her? With a cold chuckle, she announced to the crowd, “You totally ripped off the climax of Melody’s ‘Wish for your own piece!” The room fell silent at the accusation. Yolanda had plagiarized from Melody?! Melody was a legend in the piano world, bagging numerous prestigious awards locally and internationally in the recent years, and was considered a maestro on par with Leonard! But Melody was more mysterious than Leonard, with no one having seen her face or knowing her age.

1 “President Jasmine, how can you be so sure that Yolanda plagiarized Melody’s work?” The host tried to defuse the awkwardness, “I'm a fan of Melody too, but | don’t know of any piece called ‘Wish'. Do you have any proof?” A glimmer of hope sparked in Yolanda. Even the host hadn't heard of Melody’s ‘Wish, and she had gotten the climax part from Arabella’s room, hand-written by Arabella! What was more, she had searched online multiple times and found no such piece; which was why she was confident enough to use it in her own work! Arabella, unfazed, watched the scene unfold on stage, even catching Olga’s furious rant from behind! “What's up with President Jasmine? If she didn’t want to award Yoli, fine, but accusing her of plagiarizing a maestro’s work! Trying to embarrass Yoli, as if my girl, with her piano skills, needs to steal from others?” Olga was itching to confront President Jasmine.

But Attlee held her back, “Maybe President Jasmine has listened to too many piano pieces, and thought Yoli plagiarized when she heard something similar. Let's just chill and wait.” Zachary, however, had a sinking feeling, “President Jasmine is always fair. She wouldn't say this without sufficient evidence.” “Zachary, why don’t you believe in Yoli? You were just praising her earlier.” Olga was irked.

“That's odd.” Mrs. Bright chimed in, “Didn't President Jasmine just chase after your Yoli, wanting to take her as a disciple? Why is Yoli now saying that President Jasmine doesn’t want her, and that she’s not worthy of Queen Abby's designs?” Caught off guard, Olga floundered for a response, “Really?” She had totally forgotten about it! She had gloated before Mrs. Bright that President Jasmine wanted to take Yoli as a disciple.

But they thought President Jasmine was beneath them, aiming only for Leonard. Talked about shooting oneself in the foot.

Mrs. Bright saw through her lie, looking at her with disdain...

“Evidence? Of course | have!” The room was in shock.

Yolanda turned pale. Impossible.

“But before | reveal the evidence. | want to ask you, what are you trying to express in the climax of ‘Misery*?” Jasmine asked.

Yolanda brightened a little at the question. She had asked her tutor about this, who said it conveyed sadness.

“Of course it's sadness! Everyone interprets music differently, but believe good music resonates. The emotion my piece conveys, just like its title, is endless sorrow! It's about a person enveloped in sorrow, struggling to break free but can't.” Yolanda said.
