DreameNovelChapter 350:
The mention of the piano evoked Lise’s previous comments, piercing Carrie's heart anew. Carrie advanced,
deliberately avoiding Kristopher’'s hand. With a calm voice, she asked, “Shouldn't we be showcasing our talents
now?”
Vicky disregarded her question and asked further, “I heard about a piano at a recent auction valued at a hundred
million dollars. How does yours stack up?”
Kristopher’s brow furrowed slightly, confused by Carrie's evasion. He looked at his hand, left hanging, then let it
fall to his side. With a touch of annoyance, he said, “A hundred million? | recently purchased a piano for my wife
for the sprice. Perhaps it’s the one you're referring to.”
His statement was aimed at Vicky, but he didn’t even look her way.

It took Vicky a full ten seconds to digest his statement. Her expression dropped. “What? | was referring to the
piano featured in the film Always Be with You.”
“Oh,” Kristopher replied, twisting the wedding ring on his left hand, a slight hint of pride shining in his eyes.
“That's the one.”
“Its symbolism seemed quite appropriate, so | thought it was the ideal gift for my wife.”
Carrie's expressive eyes widened in surprise as she turned towards him. “You're familiar with the symbolism?”
Adjusting his suit jacket, Kristopher replied with a hint of self-satisfaction, “Of course. Without its significance, |
could have simply had a superior crystal piano made.”
Vicky's envy was visible, her complexion turning a shade of red. “Mr. Norris, you never considered giving it to
anyone else?”

Oblivious to Lise’s previous maneuvers, Kristopher’s annoyance grew. He stepped closer and grasped Carrie's
hand. “In this life, | have only one wife. Naturally, | intend for us to be together forever.”
Their fingers locked together, conveying a sense of deep connection.
Deep inside, Carrie felt a fissure in the defensive wall that had been previously unnoticed, now becoming
distinctly more pronounced.
Stewart's brow furrowed as he observed Kristopher’s tender expression. Without prior knowledge of their history,
anyone would think Kristopher and Carrie were a happily married couple. Yet, Stewart’s mind was haunted by
past events. Kristopher had once stolen Carrie's role... Kristopher had ruthlessly embarrassed Carrie... Kristopher
had pushed Carrie to the ground and left with Lise in his embrace...
Stewart's attention returned to Carrie. The usual coldness in her demeanor had softened, replaced by a spark of
youthful brightness. He experienced a twinge of sorrow for Carrie. A gifted actress, yet tragically entangled in

life felt inappropriate.
As opinions within the crowd varied, the host moved forward, announcing, “It’s quite something to see Mr. Norris
and Carrie express their affection today. It would be delightful if you two could dance for us. Vicky, could you
provide the violin accompaniment?”
Carrie responded evenly, “Certainly. I've picked up a bit of waltz, though I'm not very good. Please forgive any
missteps.”
The host then asked Vicky, “Vicky, would that be all right?”
Playing the violin and dancing were distinct talents, yet Vicky consented, albeit hesitantly, for the sake of the
program. “Sure.”
