Reincarnated As the Enemy's Wife: Married the Rival, Bound by Revenge-Chapter 244: Love at First Sight

In the beginning, Ralph used simple chords from church’s "hymn", so the tone sounded divine and noble.

Healing and sanctity were the hallmark of his music, which reminded her of the Christmas Eve she used to spend in the orphanage of Madonna Orphanage.

Then the tone changed, ethereal and lonely, like an angel in a white robe singing hoarsely in the deep night. The warm hymns became melancholic and loud, and then slowly eased down, entangled, distant and everlasting.

His music was like a painting.

Through his music, Eva saw the brightly lit Christmas tree in the orphanage, the hot dumplings she would eat during the New Year, the blue cotton gloves of Ethan, and the colorful flowers that the children waved when he left.

Unknowingly, a tear fell from her eyes.

Finally, the song was over.

She quickly wiped away the tears from her eyes and said in a deep voice.

"You wrote this song now?"

"Yes."

"Impressive." She sighed from the bottom of her heart, "You’re way better than me."

"People say I’m a musician, but they don’t know I was funded so that I had access to guidance from a big shot," she sighed.

"I don’t know how to write songs, nor can I compose music. I just follow suit." She never thought she was talented.

She believed much of the credit of her success went to the senior musician’s guidance from Nord School, and the funding of Nicholas was the prerequisite.

Therefore, she had always denied herself. Her diffidence grew in the presence of Ralph. Ralph looked at her and stroked the piano. "No."

"I know you are indeed very talented. As for me, although I am good at composing music, I am not always able to write good works. "

"To be honest, I hadn’t written a song that I was satisfied with in three months. I don’t know how I worked this song out just now, but seeing you, I couldn’t help thinking of these notes. "

"I think this feeling is very similar to the classic perfume, L’orpheline."

He didn’t know her background, nor did he know she was from an orphanage.

He had this feeling at the first sight of her.

"I’m leaving."

He was so perceptive that she felt uncomfortable.

She turned around and left.

"You... "

"I’m in."

After saying that, she disappeared from his sight.

Looking at her back, Ralph picked up a card she had left when he was playing. Her phone number was written on it.

Her handwriting was not as delicate as a normal girl’s.

On the contrary, it was bold and unconstrained.

As she had been living abroad, her handwriting of Arabia numbers was quite different. It was very distinguished.

Ralph took a closer look at the card and carefully put it in his pocket.

Serge Lutens was home to a bottle of perfume called "L’orpheline", which inspired him.

The fragrance in the perfume contained musk, incense, smoke and fumigation.

A gloomy young lady-Ralph’s first impression of Eva.

Nevertheless, what he didn’t tell her was that the perfume was pungent and bitter in its original tone, it would eventually spread and become as stable and sweet as the wood burning by the fire in winter.

He hoped that one day, she would also let him off guard and be filled with security.

...

...

Eva joined the Arts Department.

The whole Arts Department was very excited about this.

Everyone knew that Ralph was very talented, but they didn’t expect him to get Eva join.

A private room in a KTV.

The Arts Department was hosting a special welcome party for Eva.

"Ralph, good for you. I heard that rich second generation, Jared."

"Many women throw themselves at him. But he got thrown over when he tried to woo Eva on her first day of school!"

One of them teased while drinking, "Ralph, have you ever been thrown over?"

Just then, Eva arrived.

According to the instructions, she came to this private room.

"Thank you." She turned to the waiter behind her.

The waiter closed the door.

"Wait a minute! Waiter! "As soon as Eva entered the room, the waiter was about to leave when a loud voice came from a person holding a microphone.

The speaker was Hailey, who had just been promoted. She was now deputy minister.

"Clean up the table for us, and bring a box of the wine I left here last time!" Hailey said casually and loudly. Her sweet voice was a little shrill.

Frowning, Eva walked into the room.

In the room, Ralph sat in the middle seat and waved at her.

Then he pointed to a seat not far from him and removed the jacket that was covering the seat.

It was clear that he reserved it for Eva.

It was quite a good spot. Not only was the cushions soft and new, but it was very close to the song stand and the place where the snack platter was placed, so she wouldn’t be disturbed by the people who were ordering songs.

Obviously, he was very attentive.

After a moment of hesitation, Eva strode to the seat.

Immediately, she put the jacket he had taken away back in place, and then sat down next to it!

She didn’t enjoy the feeling of being taken care of.

There was a trace of embarrassment on Ralph’s face.

However, he soon regained his composure and greeted her.

Hailey withdrew her gaze and saw the interaction between Eva and Ralph, her eyes glinting with coldness.

"Are you our new member, Eva?" Hailey put the microphone down and said to her.

Eva nodded calmly.

Hailey pointed at Ralph and said, "You must be very familiar with our director, Ralph."

She deliberately emphasized the word "familiar".

"You are new. You must not be familiar with other people."

She emphasized the word "new", making one feel uncomfortable.

"Let me introduce you... I am Hailey Lindsey, the new vice president of the Arts Department."

Hailey introduced the other members of the group.

Out of politeness, Eva greeted them.

But her impression of this Hailey was just so-so.

...

Unknowingly, two hours passed.

They had sung for about two hours.

Finally, after a rap was finished, their voices muted.

They were from the Arts Department, and most of them were good at singing, but two hours of non-stop singing exhausted them.

Hailey was also tired.

She had been watching Eva.

She had long heard of her, who was said to be a music genius. Before she joined the Arts Department, everyone was discussing her when she first entered the school.

They said that she deserved the mentor of the Department and wondered if she was willing to join.

As deputy minister, Hailey was self-aware that she was not as good as Ralph, but she was reluctant to let Eva shake her position.

Therefore, she had to find a chance to find the fault of her!

Soon, she realized that she had not sung a single song tonight!

Was it because she can’t sing at all?

Thinking of this, Hailey quickly grabbed a beer bottle while Ralph was not around.

"Stop singing! Let’s play Truth or Dare! " 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Soon, other members of the Arts Department were encouraged to play the game regardless of their unwillingness.

In fact, Eva was not comfortable with such an occasion, and she braced herself and came here.

She was out of sorts when hearing that they were going to playing Truth and Dare.

She was listening to a little fat man singing next to her, who sang quite well, but was interrupted by Hailey’s screams. In the end, he could only put the microphone down silently.

"I’m going to the bathroom."

She did not know that Hailey was trying to make things difficult for her and instinctively rejected the game. However, as soon as she finished speaking, she was stopped by Hailey.

"Don’t go! The game has started! "

"It’s starting, it’s starting!" The two girls around Hailey also echoed.

Standing in the middle, Hailey said, "Whoever the bottle turns to lose, either telling the truth or taking a big risk!"

"Okay!"

"Okay!"

In response to the crowd, Hailey sat across from Eva and turned the beer bottles.

The first round.

Coincidentally, the bottles turned to Eva.

The crowd cheered.

"What should I do?" She was very sober.

"Since you have won many world awards, why don’t you show us how awesome you are." Just then, a girl next to Hailey said.

The other echoed, "Exactly! But there is no piano and violin today, why don’t you sing a song for everyone! "

"Sing a song!"

"Sing a song!"

The clamor for her singing grew louder.

Eva frowned.

It was not because she was not good at singing, but that she hated singing since she was a child. It was impossible for her to sing on such an occasion.

She could only wait for Ralph to come back and help her out, but he seemed to be occupied with something.

"Do I have any other options?" asked Eva.

Hailey held her arms high in the air.

"Then kiss the boy next to you."

Suddenly, the atmosphere was tense.

Everyone knew that Hailey was trying to make things difficult for Eva.

And every one of them had been there.

They were angry with her but dared to say so. They lowered their heads, wordless.
