Olga looked at Elizabeth and then went on, “No matter if this is true or not, you have to participate in the competition this time.”
If Mr. Terrence really was present, wouldn’t Elizabeth miss an opportunity?
Elizabeth knew the importance and nodded, “Alright.”
She then asked, “Mom, who did you hear that Mr. Terrence’s ancestors were from River City?”
Olga replied, “It’s your father who heard some big shots talking together at a cocktail party.”
Hearing that, Elizabeth narrowed her eyes.
“Who were they?”
Olga said, “I’m not sure exactly who they were, but your father said that those big shots were all from 49 City.” From 49 City?
49 City was an alias for Capital City.
Upon hearing this, Elizabeth’s gaze changed once more.
There were levels among the wealthy circles.
The most top-tier wealthy circle was the Capital Circle.
Thus, many families would do anything to secure a place in the Capital Circle.
Unfortunately.
The Capital Circle was not a place that anyone could easily enter.
Money was just one aspect; power was the most important thing.
Which of those powerful families in the Capital Circle didn’t rely on strong backing?
Olga added, “These big shots suddenly came to River City, there must be a reason. So, Elizabeth, I feel that Mr. Terrence might really be from River City.”
Although River City was also a big city, it was still no match for 49 City. If nothing significant had happened, those people wouldn’t have come for no reason.
Elizabeth put down the medical book in her hand, “Hmm, you make sense. I actually have a feeling that River City has developed too fast in these years. If there wasn’t someone powerful helping behind the scenes, it wouldn’t have developed so fast in such a short period of time.”
Ten years ago, River City was still a third-tier city with an annual per capita income of less than thirty thousand.
Nowadays, River City had long developed into a tourist city, receiving more than thirty million tourists annually, with an average monthly income of over ten thousand.
Such a change was like spring after rain, almost impossible to achieve without someone powerful manipulating it behind the scenes.
“So, don’t take this violin competition lightly, practice more during this time.”
Elizabeth nodded, “Alright.’
Although she already played the violin very well, she could still be more perfect.
She wanted to present the best version of herself in front of Mr. Terrence.
After some thought, Olga said again, “I don’t even know how good Mae White’s foundation really is.”
Elizabeth’s biggest enemy now was Mae White.
And Mae White had never participated in any violin competition.
This situation was quite embarrassing, as they couldn’t know Mae White’s capabilities, nor what she was good at playing.
If Mae White won the first place, where would Elizabeth put her face?
Hearing that, Elizabeth’s eyes were filled with disdain.
She had never put Mae White in her eyes.
As long as she was there, Mae White could only be number two forever.
“Mom, don’t worry, I won’t lose to her.”
She was determined to get this first place.
Having an outstanding daughter like Elizabeth made Olga very proud.
Elizabeth was already the top talent in River City at eighteen. She would achieve even greater things in the future, let alone the small River City.
The entire 49 City would belong to her daughter someday!
Olga smiled, “Elizabeth, our family relies on you from now on.”
She believed that Elizabeth would definitely make their ancestors proud and become an important part of the family’s history.
Elizabeth hooked the corner of her lip.
At this moment, Olga seemed to suddenly think of something and said, “Oh! The Knight family just contacted me. Elizabeth, when do you plan to go there?
These days, Elizabeth had been reading medical books and researching Fiona
Knight’s face, “I’m ready. I’ll go there in a short while.”
“Good,” Olga nodded, “I’ll call Mrs. Knight and let her know.”
As she finished speaking, Olga added, “Miss Knight’s injury on her face is very troublesome. Even many famous doctors are at a loss. Elizabeth, you must be cautious when applying medicine.” “Alright, Mom, I’ll go get the medical kit.”
“Good, good.” Olga nodded her head.
At the same time.
Used electronics market.
Viola Thompson went to the stall she frequented, “Boss, do you have any graphics cards?”
The boss was busy repairing the computer, and without raising his head, he said, “Wait a moment, I’ll be done soon.”
“Okay.” Viola nodded slightly.
Just then, Viola happened to see the shop owner disassembling the computer. She casually said, “Boss, your computer doesn’t have any major problems. Just release the static electricity on the battery and you won’t need to change the power source.”
Today she encountered an expert?
Hearing this, the boss turned his head to look at Viola.
Upon looking, the boss immediately laughed.
He had a deep impression of Viola.
Because last time Viola bought a bunch of scrap metal from him, saying that she would assemble a computer.
Thinking of this, the boss laughed and asked, “Little girl, have you successfully assembled the computer you bought last time?”
“It’s already assembled.” Viola said.
Assembled?
A bunch of scrap metal turned into a computer?
She must be bragging.
At such a young age to deceive people like this, what will she become in the future?
If children of this age are not guided correctly, they will inevitably go astray in the future.
Thinking of his own sister, who was about the same age as Viola, the boss stood up.
Today, he would play the role of a good person.
“Little girl, you’re so amazing! Since you can even assemble a computer, repairing it must be a piece of cake. Why don’t you take a look at it for me? If you can fix my computer today, I won’t charge you for the graphics card.” He paused for a moment and then continued, “But if you can’t fix it, don’t brag anymore! It’s better to be down-to-earth in life.”
“Alright.” Viola nodded slightly, put down her bag, and walked over to the boss.
The boss just stood there watching.
Seeing Viola disassembling the mainframe and releasing static electricity like a pro, the boss commented while laughing, “Don’t tell anyone, but you do know how to fool people.”
Viola didn’t say anything.
Eight minutes later, she reassembled the computer and stood up, clapping her hands, “Give it a try.”
“Is it fixed already?” The boss asked.
He couldn’t fix it in a whole morning but Viola could fix it in less than ten minutes?
The little girl didn’t even make a draft when she lied.
“Hmm.”
The boss laughed and pressed the computer’s button, “Little girl, I’ve been in this line for ten years, and I can tell what’s wrong with a computer at a glance. When you say you’re a big knife expert…”
Before the word “knife” was even finished, the sound of the computer starting up filled the air.
The boss’s remaining words were stuck in his throat, his eyes wide.
How…now was rms possiD1ef!
The boss immediately grabbed the mouse and started operating the computer.
What’s more, the computer which had been a bit laggy, was now running incredibly smoothly, no matter what web page was opened. The boss didn’t believe in evil, so he started an online game.
Still very smooth!
“What did you do to my computer?”
Viola’s tone was flat, “When I released the static electricity just now, I found that your computer was a little stuck, so I casually upgraded it…” Casually upgraded it?
Why did she make it sound so easy to upgrade a computer?
And it was done casually.
He hadn’t even acquired such technology in more than ten years in the industry.
The boss suddenly realized that he had just encountered a true Master!
“Little girl.”
“Hmm?” Viola slightly raised her eyes.
“Little, no, Great Master!” The boss looked at Viola, very excitedly said, “Great
Master, do you still need an apprentice?”
