Married by Accident, Taming the Billionaire

Chapter 435 Seeking Justice for Her Son
“Can you specify the parts where he made significant blunders?” Cecelia pressed.
“Sorry, this is the internal information on our selection. We can’t share it with you,” Petunia refused with an excuse.
“Aren’t fairness, impartiality, and openness the spirit of this competition? Why can’t you share it with me?” Cecelia contradicted
on just grounds.
Petunia felt embarrassed and simply said, “Well, if you want to ask for a reason, I’m telling you I gave him the lowest score!”
“The fluency of the No. 23 player was fine, but he was very poor in the other parts, so I couldn’t give him a high score. Satisfied?”
“Miss Taylor, I seriously doubt the accuracy of your judgment and your understanding of music,” Cecelia mocked.
Petunia’s face instantly turned dark. She stood up to confront Cecelia.
“Madam, don’t try to make a fuss just because your child’s score is low?” Petunia said loudly on purpose.
Then, the viewers who were leaving the venue were attracted and stopped to look.
Many people wanted to know the result of the argument, so they returned to their seats to watch the fun.
“We’re all professional judges. Our ratings are the most just and professional. Your child must be lacking in skill. You should look
within yourselves. Is it suitable to ask the judges for a high score?”
Petunia reprimanded Cecelia in the tone of a professional judge.
Cecelia was not afraid of being humiliated. She said, “I’m not asking you for a high score. I just doubt the fairness of your rating!
If you have a problem with me, you can take it out on me. There’s no need to involve my child! As for my son’s performance, the
whole venue has watched it. They have ears, and they can tell. Why is his score ridiculously low? Is there anything fishy in this?”
Cecelia stared at Petunia, coldly and fiercely. Didn’t she know what intention Petunia was harboring?
This must be her trick!
“Are you doubting my professional ability?”
Petunia started arguing with her. Cecelia sneered, “Do you have the ability? If you did, you wouldn’t have blindly given a score
like that!”
“It sounds like you’re so professional! Today, on this very stage, I will make you surrender and admit defeat!” Petunia said
indignantly. Then she said to the audience through her microphone, “Parents, teachers, and all the viewers, now a mother
doubts my professional ability because of her child’s low score. She wants to challenge me, and I agree to compete with her
here and show her my ability.”
The competition between Petunia and Cecelia should have happened at the dinner party on the Bowman Group’s cruise ship,
but it had been delayed because of various reasons.
Today was a perfect opportunity. Petunia would make Cecelia feel humiliated!

Now in the private room on the second floor, the Nelsons and Shawns were also watching. Remington clearly knew Petunia did
this on purpose.
She wanted to compete with his wife Cece? She was humiliating herself!
The audience all craned their necks. No one expected that this mother could be so brave she dared to challenge the professional
judge of this competition!
There was fun to watch now. Everyone was waiting! They were waiting for them to compete, but Cecelia was silent.
When she walked past her, Petunia asked with a smile, “Are you afraid, Miss Linsey?”
“Not at all.” Cecelia said calmly, “If you want to compete, let’s do the most difficult one. Show all you’ve learned in this life.”
“This is your request. When you’re humiliated, don’t blame me for not showing you respect.”
Petunia hit Cecelia’s shoulder with hers and went straight to the piano on the stage.
The children’s competition had ended. This was just a minor incident, but the audience was more interested. After all, this was a
battle between a parent and a judge.
All the people wanted to see the final result. They wanted to know if the mother could successfully get justice.
When the competition started, Cecelia asked Everest to bring Andres here.
Andres came to her from the side and glanced up at her. Cecelia gave her son an encouraging look and held his little hand.
They would listen to the performance together.
Petunia began to play. In order to show off all her skills, she picked a very difficult piece called Paganini’s Exercise No.3 – The
Bell by Niccolò Paganini.
Flowing rhythms soon ran out from between her dancing fingers. Her performance was truly outstanding. She was very skillful,
and her emotional control was perfect.
All the other judges nodded repeatedly to show their approval.
And those who knew nothing about piano music were also enjoying it. Indeed, the performance was perfect from beginning to
end.
When the music ended, the viewers at the venue all applauded.
Petunia stood up and bowed to them. Then she looked at Cecelia standing in the audience and said through her microphone,
“The mother of the No. 23 player, it’s your turn!”
The viewers all wanted to know if the mother could play the piano.
How could she dare to compete with the judge?
If she couldn’t play, she would lose face, wouldn’t she?
Cecelia also got a microphone. She said to Petunia directly, “There’s no need for me to show. My son will compete with you!”
Petunia widened her eyes in disbelief. “You must be joking! This is a competition between us adults. compete with me? What are
you trying to do? If you can’t play the piano, just admit defeat!”

“I won’t admit defeat. If you don’t dare to compete with my son, you’re not qualified to compete with me. I must let everyone
know my son can play the piano just as well as you!”
“What a bold statement! Remember, this is your request. If your son loses, don’t blame me for taking advantage of his young
age.”
Cecelia ignored her. Holding her son’s little hand, she took him to the stage and put him on the piano stool.
“Give it your all, son! You’re the best!”
Cecelia kissed her son’s face and stepped aside.
A ray of light slanted down on the piano. For the second time tonight, Andres was in the spotlight. His little hands landed on the
keys and began to move flexibly.
The music started to reverberate. Soon, some realized that the child was playing the piece the judge had just played.
Surprisingly, he played it so well!
A five-year-old could play such a difficult piece? That was amazing!
In fact, what outsiders didn’t know was that Andres had rare musical talent hidden within himself.
He had not experienced professional training, but if the music was what he had heard or what he had watched someone play, he
could memorize every detail and play it.
After quietly hearing Petunia play the piece, he could play it.
The audience watched the child confidently playing the piano. After hearing the melodious rhythms, every one of them would
think, How come such a talented child got the lowest score in this competition?
Although the piece was difficult, but Andres could play it without making any mistakes. Realizing that, Petunia couldn’t laugh
anymore.
She stared at Andres, her eyes filled with confusion. It was widely known that this little boy of the Nelson family was unsociable
and knew nothing. But how could he play the piece she had just played?
This was not what a boy at his age could do!
When the last note ended, the little boy withdrew his hands and stood up to bow. Once again, the audience gave him the most
enthusiastic applause.
This was the encouraging and appreciative applause for the uncrowned king!
When the applause had quieted down, Cecelia looked at Petunia and asked, “What do you think of my son’s performance, Ms.
Taylor?”
