My Visions His Reality

The following day, in Elise’s room at the Johansson residence, Loville said, “Elise, after a lot of effort. I’ve managed to find out where Mr. Jovani Xinos is living now. Let’s get ready and go visit him.”

Elise hesitated. “Mom, we didn’t inform Mr. Jovani Xinos in advance. Will he be unhappy if we just show up like this?”

Lucille comforted her, “Don’t worry. If it were someone else, Mr. Jovani Xinos might be unhappy, but it’s you, Elise. You’re the only one who has been praised by Mr. Jovani Xinos, and you’re also a renowned piano prodigy in Elstunda. When he sees you, he’ll be more than happy.”

Elise smiled sweetly at Lucille’s compliment and quickly went to prepare.

However, for some reason, she felt a little uneasy at the thought of Samantha playing the piano.

However, Elise had second thoughts. The incident of Samantha playing the piano had already been intentionally manipulated by Timothy for a long time and was overshadowed by other news.

In the end, there were not many people who could really remember Samantha.

Moreover, Jovani was known for leading a secluded life, so he probably hadn’t seen Samantha’s video yet.

Elise pushed her thoughts aside, dressed up beautifully, and happily headed out with Lucille.

As they made their way downstairs, Lucille deliberately greeted Alec. “Dad, I’m taking Elise to visit Mr. Jovani Xinos and discuss the date for her apprenticeship.

Alec smiled with satisfaction and replied, “If Elise is accepted as a mentee by Mr. Jovani Xinos, it would definitely bring honor to the family. We may not lack wealth in the Johansson family, but we yearn for prestige. Elise, if you’re able to impress Mr. Xinos, I’ll spare no effort in supporting you.”

Lucille and Elise were very happy after hearing that.

It was as if Elise had been accepted as a mentee by Jovani, had won the favor of Alec, and the Johansson residence belonged to them.

With great anticipation, they got in the car.

An hour later, they arrived at Jovant’s mansion.

As expected, he had a quirky temperament and lived in seclusion halfway up the mountain.

After getting out of the car, they instructed the driver to wait aside and then went to ring the doorbell.

“Who is it?” An irritable old man’s voice was heard from inside the door.

Lucille hurriedly asked politely, “Is this the residence of Mr. Jovani Xinos?”

There was no response.

Lucille continued to shout, “Mr. Jovani Xinos, we have come here out of great respect and would like to explore piano skills with you

“Go away! Go back to where you came from! The old man shouted in an even more irritable tone.

Lucille frowned and muttered in a low voice, “What a peculiar temperament. He doesn’t even bother to ask about our identities and just dismisses us like this. He doesn’t seem to care about offending people.”

Elise patted Lucille and said, “Mom, let me give it a try” NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

She then walked over

aned forward at the entrance. “Hello Mr. Jovani Xinos. This is Elise. Can we come in?”

“I don’t care who you are: Get out of here!” he scolded.

Elise was so scared that she almost lost her balance.

Lucille hurriedly held onto Elise and said, “This doesn’t make sense. If Mr. Jovani Xinos really lives here, how could be not recognize you?”

Lucille thought for a while and said loudly, “Mr. Xinos, Elise was the champion of the recent plano competition in Elstunda. You even praised her during the event. Have you forgotten!”

“Leave now, or I’ll release the dog!” the man said.

Several barks followed shortly after.

Lucille and Elise screamed in fear and stepped back hastily.

Both of them hurriedly ran toward the car. Their faces were pale.

“Mom…” Elise held onto Lucille’s arm.

Lucille clenched his fists and muttered, “This Jovani. He really has a strange temperament.”

After all, he has been a prodigy since childhood and a prominent figure in Clusia. It’s normal for him to have some temperament, Elise said.

Lucille frowned. “But what should we do now? He won’t even let us in. Elise, didn’t you say that he praised you on the spot? Why doesn’t it work when we mention your name?”

Elise lowered her head and bit her lips without saying a word.

Jovani did praise her, but it was only with the words “not bad.”

However, although it was just “not bad,‘ it came from the mouth of Jovani, and that carried a different meaning.

Lucille anxiously paced back and forth. “What should we do now? When we left, we had already boasted to your grandpa, and today we came with the goal of being acknowledged by Jovani. But now, we didn’t even get to enter the door. I’m afraid your grandpa will think I’m useless and send me off to Xandenia

Lucille became more agitated as she spoke. She rubbed her hands together nervously.

“Mom, please stop pacing,” Elise said.

“Well, then why don’t you tell me what we should do? Your grandpa just gave us a chance, and if we mess it up, what will we gain? We’ve been serving him for so long in the Johansson family and have suffered so much over the years. We can’t let all our efforts go to waste,” Lucille responded.

Elise kept her head down. She bit her lips as her mind continued to contemplate.

Suddenly, a thought crossed her mind.

She raised her head and looked at Lucille who paced back and forth anxiously. Despite her well–maintained appearance over the years, she had grown a few strands of white hair.

Her mother, Lucille, came from a humble background. She was never favored by Alec, nor did Aunt Irene’s aunts hold her in high regard.

10 51 Fri, Oct 4 BGO

They never truly regarded her as part of the Johansson family.

Π

Ever since Elise was born, she knew that she and her mother lived a difficult life within the Johansson family, always having to be cautious.

That was why she had always worked hard, striving to excel in everything she did.

She and her mother’s status in the Johansson family finally became secure ever since she achieved remarkable success in playing the piano.

This was because Alec valued the interests of the Johansson family above all else.

Even though she was his granddaughter, familial bonds were deerned insignificant when compared to the prestige and benefits of the Johansson family.

Therefore, she, too, had always prioritized interests,

Only what had firmly grasped in her own hands was truly….

As she thought about it, she made up her mind. “Mom, do you have the contact information of Mr. Jovani Xinos?”

Yes. Why did you ask so?” Lucille responded.

“I want to send him my piano video. Maybe he will invite us in after watching it,” Elise answered.

Lucille’s eyes lit up. “Gosh! Elise, you’re smart.”

Immediately afterward, Elise sent the video.

Along with the video, she also sent a message saying that she was outside his house and hoped to visit him.

About ten minutes later, they heard hurried footsteps.

“Is Elise here? Is Elise outside? The elderly voice carried a sense of anticipation and delight.

It was a complete contrast to the furious roar from earlier.

Lucille was overjoyed and quickly led Elise over. “Mr. Jovani Xings, we’re here.”

“You sent me the video just now? Jovani’s eyes were full of expectation and excitement,

“Yes, it’s me.” Elise smiled sweetly

Jovani couldn’t hide the joy on his face. “Quick. Come in with me.”
