Chapter 603
It was only due to Keegan's personal interest that Vinci Rivera was researching and developing drone technology.
Keegan was intrigued by aircrafts and other similar mechanics. Vinci Rivera's main focus was actually not on drones. Keegan
was just toying around with them because the drones available on the market could not satisfy his needs when it comes to
playing with drones. That was why he created a research team for this.
In the end, it unexpectedly became a bigger success than other projects.
Their technology for drones had more breakthroughs than their research toward chips.
Vinci Rivera's W series drones were well received ever since they were launched.
Their latest technology of invisible drones was even recognized by the government, and contracts were signed fortheir
participation in the research and development of war drones.
'It's like raising a child for six years and seeing them being taken away by others to do performances. What a bitch move,'
Vermont thought to himself.
Keegan, on the other hand, was more generous about it. "Steady flight," he commented indifferently.
Vermont turned his head to Stella, hoping to get some empathy from her. He expected her to defend her dear husband. But,
when he turned around, he saw Stella snacking away on nuts.
Vermont's eye twitched. 'Am I the only one who cares about this?'
Not far away from the back row, Trevor saw Stella standing in front of
Dahlia, and he frowned.
"What a good performance. It was both thoughtful and creative. What a thoughtful child Jackson is. Mrs. Kane, you're so lucky.''
Darcie, who was standing beside her, praised.
Cordelia was all smiles. "This kid was always clever.’
Cyrene laughed and said, "Jackson has a trick or two in entertaining people. But, as for real talent, I heard that Jaylene had
participated in a piano competition in Vasona and that she had gotten quite a good ranking in it."
Jaylene looked down and said, "I didn't win the award, so it's not really something worth talking about."
Cyrene flattered on. "It's already impressive that you made it into the final rounds. We have a piano here today. Why don't you
play something for Cordelia and regale us with music too?"
Cyrene was obviously giving Jaylene a chance to debut in Rivera's elite circle. It was apparent that Cyrene liked Jaylene a lot.
Jaylene did not answer immediately, and she looked at Darcie instead.
Darcie smiled and said, "Your Aunt Cyrene did ask, so let's not spoil the fun for everyone."
Jaylene agreed, went up to Cordelia, and said, "Mrs. Kane, what song would you like to listen to?"
Cordelia looked at Cyrene affectionately. "Jaylene, just play anything. I will like whichever song you play."
Jaylene thought for a while and answered, "Then, I'll just see how it goes as I play."
Cordelia nodded.
The crowd made way for Jaylene, who confidently walked toward the piano. She lifted her dress slightly and sat down.
She looked down as her slender, pale fingers slowly pressed on the piano keys.
Instantly, melodious music was created through her fingertips.
The song was "Flower Dance".
It was a good piece to be played at a birthday celebration.
Judging from the fluency she had when playing, Jaylene must have practiced often and had a strong foundation in music.
Jaylene was classy, unlike Bella, who had no real class and pretended to be elegant. Jaylene's elegance was indeed apparent
from the inside out.
When Jaylene was sitting there playing the piano, as a fellow woman, even Stella admired Jaylene.
When "Flower Dance" was ending, the tempo of the music suddenly changed, and the piano sounded more intense. The song
seamlessly transitioned to "Flight of the Bumblebee".
This piece showed off Jaylene's skills even more.
The crowd was abuzz. Some were surprised, and some praised in awe. The song was the center of attention.
When the music ended, the applause given was unmeasurable.
Jaylene stood up and bowed to the audience. She then lifted the corner of her dress, went back, and stood beside Darcie. She
smiled and said to Cordelia, “It was not a good performance, so please pardon me."
"It was a really good performance. You're too humble." Cordelia mimicked Jaylene's tone.
