Chapter 930:
Fiona was confident she could do anything Elyse could. A lump formed in her throat, and tears began to fall. She
quickly wiped them away, determined not to let her distress show.
Upon arriving at the park, Elyse picked a spot and suggested, “This place looks good. Shall we start the
competition here?”
Fiona looked around with little interest and nodded without emotion. “If you think it’s suitable, | have no
objections.”

Elyse responded with a nod, opened her violin case, and began tuning her instrument. Once ready, she noticed
Fiona had yet to prepare. With a frown, she inquired, “Why aren’t you tuning your violin? Have you been
practicing lately?”
Snapped back to the present, Fiona realized both Jayden and Elyse were observing her. She quickly opened her
violin case and retorted, “I don’t need your reminders. | know what I'm doing.”
Noticing Fiona’s distracted demeanor, Elyse sighed, wondering if Fiona was truly serious about competing with
her.
Fiona opened the case and began tuning her violin. Perhaps it was because she hadn't played in a while or
because the weather was simply too cold, but after a few light plucks, a string suddenly snapped.
Noticing this, Elyse pulled out a new string from her own case. “How long has it been since you last played?
Here's a new string; go ahead and use it.”
Fiona didn’t move. She remained bent over her violin, saying nothing.
Elyse presumed that Fiona’s lack of response was due to her ego. She sighed and tried to encourage her. “You
wanted to compete with me, right? You'll need a new string to do that.”
Fiona finally glanced over at Elyse before shifting her gaze to Jayden, who was smoking not too far away. He was
idly scrolling through his phone, blowing puffs of smoke. Sensing eyes on him, he looked up and met Elyse’s
stare. “What are you looking atfor? | don’t know anything about music.”

Elyse sighed again and pointed at Fiona. “She stared at you first.”
Jayden turned his attention to Fiona, whose face was filled with grievance. She seemed deeply hurt for some
reason.
Suddenly, Fiona raised her hand, reaching out to him. “My finger got injured. The string cutwhen it
snapped.”

Jayden’s brows furrowed slightly, and he looked like he wanted to say something.
Fiona’s expression turned expectant, waiting for him to express his concern for her, just as he had for Elyse
earlier.
