Chapter 97
After dinner, Matthew casually collected the cutlery and plates before taking them to the kitchen.
During the cleaning session in the morning, the dishwasher was coincidentally delivered to the door. Mia helped bring it to the kitchen. Matthew intended to give it a try.
“Mr. Grant, there are just two plates and a pot” Valerie said. “I’ll just wash them casually” She thought it was a bit of a hassle to go through the trouble of using the dishwasher.
Matthew, however, was adamant. We should give it a try,” he said.
He abhorred dishwashing grease.
Valerie could not dissuade him, so she let him open the dishwasher and put the plates, cutlery. pot inside. Soon, the sound of the machine
running came from the kitchen.
The married couple stood in front of the dishwasher, each holding a cup of hot coffee, leisurely feeling the pleasure of not needing to do the dishes. At this moment, even Valerie could not help bur sigh, thinking. The dishwasher is truly amazing! It would be even better if the price could be a bit cheaper
Valene rested for a while. She then went for a walk on the treadmill
she had heard that music could have a positive influence on the development of an unborn child, so she deliberately collected some and listened as she walked. To prevent Matthew from getting suspicious, she deliberately bought earphonses to wear while listening.
She thought. “But now a new problem arises. If I wear the carphones, can the baby hear the music? If the haby can’t hear, then it won’t have the effect of positive influence on the baby’s development. But if 1 put the earphones on my belly so the baby can bear. Just thinking about that scene makes me want to laugh out loud. Oh, and if I start learning music now, I wonder if my thoughts can be transmitted to the baby. Maybe not only will I learn, but the baby will also be able to learn along with me.
Valerie, being a first–time mother with Bule experience, wasn’t sure if this idea was feasible. But she figured she would give it a try to find out. So, she stopped the treadmill and decided to give it a shot.
She first downloaded a piano simulator on her phone and searched for beginner piano sheet music.
As soon as Matthew came out of his room after taking a shower, he heard awkward piano sounds coming from the direction of the balcony. Not only were the notes disjointed, but there were also accidental key presses, nuking it sound like a cacophony.
“What are you doing?” he asked.
Valerie was shocked by his voice. She turned around and saw Matthew leaning against the door frame and looking at her indifferently.
Of counc, Valerie was well aware of how bad she was at playing piano. She instantly felt embarrassed. “I’m just playing around,” she said, “You’re done showering, huh?”
Matthew, however, walked directly toward her. He maintained his usual serious expression, leaving Valerie unable to figure out what he was thinking. It wasn’t until Matthew suddenly placed his hand on the phone screen that she understood. Right after that, his fingertips danced on screen, and a melodious rendition of “Canon‘ could be heard.
“Mr. Grant, you know how to play the piano?” Valerie asked.
or looked at him in astonishment, feeling that his slender fingers looked as though they were performing magic. They were elegant and attractive. She thought. If he played a real piano, it would be even more stunning!
Marthare said, “Tused in practice. There’s no secret to playing the piano. Don’t be afraid of failure. As long as you practice enough, even if you can’t express the emotion, you can still play the melody. Your problem is that you practice too little”
Valerie dad not fully understand, but she understood that Matthew wanted her to practice more. She hurriedly smiled and waved, saying. “No need.
sust playing around for a moment on a whim. Besides, I’ve never framed to play the piano. I won’t know.
for a poutive influence on the baby’s develojament
playing the piano just now, she Loew that even if she practiced throughout the entire pregnancy, she wouldn’t be able ta become as skilled as Matthew the thought. On ther contrary, my playing is so awful that not only will it fail to have a positive influence surthe baby’s development, but at may also irritate the baby to the point of king me in my wound every day!

Unexpectedly, aber Matthew heard her words, he owned slightly and said. “You said

Valerie nodded frankly and said, I’ve never learned in”
There was nothing to be embarrassed about. She had never hidden the fact that she was born in the countryside. Her family’s economic status was average. She didn’t have the financial means and qualities to learn piano,
“How did you manage to understand the sheet music then?” Matthew asked.
Valerie was momentarily taken aback by Matthew’s question. It was only then that she realized that sheet music with notes floating across the staff.
hat what sh
she had just searched was indeed a piano
Valerie herself was now bewildered by the sinzation.
She thought. Yeah. How did I manage to understand the sheet music?
