The Heiress‘ Return & Revenge

Chapter 43 Failing Terribly

Simone’s words shocked everyone on the scene and the viewers watching the livestream.

“Is Simone claiming that she can play any banjo song we request?”

“How is that possible? Is she really that skilled? I find it hard to believe.”

“What gave Simone the confidence to say that?”

“Is Simone overly confident or just arrogant?”

“Let’s choose a song, everyone.”

“You’re right. Since Simone made such a claim, we should fulfill her request.”

The paid trolls quickly discussed and chose a song they believed Simone couldn’t play.

“Play A Soldier’s Armor‘ then.”

Unlike well–known songs like ‘Gallows Pole or The Battle Cry of Freedom. A Soldier’s Armor‘ was at

Civil War song with sixteen segments and varying moods throughout, making it quite challenging to

play.

Those who didn’t know the song searched for it online.

In the end, the haters, as well as Aaron’s and Leon’s fans, agreed to the choice.

“Great. Play that song

“I’ve heard it before, so I’m curious to hear Simone’s rendition.”

“This song is quite difficult. I wonder if Simone can actually play it.”

Since Simone couldn’t see the comments, Jonah relayed their suggestion. “They want you to play the

song called ‘A Soldier’s Armor, okay?”

Simone was familiar with the song, so she replied, “Okay!”

Without wasting any time, she began plucking the banjo’s strings.

The song started with a low and somber beat, then transitioned into a fierce atmosphere full of

intensity. Finally, it ended with a sad and heart–wrenching melody, creating a stark contrast with the

earlier sections. Not only were those present immersed in the atmosphere, but the livestream viewers

were also captivated by the performance on the screen.

Once the song ended, everyone gradually returned to their senses.

“Simone played really well.”

“As a banjo player myself, I have to say that Simone not only played it correctly, but she also perfectly

captured the somber and tragic mood of the song.”

“I don’t usually listen to the banjo, but I was captivated by it just now.”

“Simone’s skill on the banjo is evident from her performance of that song.”

“To those who claimed she was acting, are you feeling embarrassed now?”

The paid trolls and Aaron’s fans felt embarrassed indeed. They didn’t expect Simone to be genuinely

skilled at the banjo. However, since the paid trolls aimed to ruin Simone’s reputation, they wouldn’t give

up easily.

“We admit that Simone is quite skilled at the banjo, but it doesn’t mean everything before was not pre-

arranged.”

“If you want us to believe her, let her play a song on the violin, dulcimer, and trumpet as well.”

“Don’t they have a guitar? Let her play something on that too.”

“Yes. If Simone can do it, we’ll admit that she’s skilled in many instruments and not faking it.”

When Jonah saw the comments, a smile appeared in his eyes as he thought, “Isn’t this free publicity?”

If Simone could play those instruments, it would prove that their show wasn’t scripted and possibly

make headlines. Therefore, he glanced at Simone and read out the comments.

Simone replied indifferently, “Sure. Let’s go with their request.

“Our darling is so confident. I love it!”

“Wifey is the best. I love your confidence.”

“Oh my gosh! Let’s go with their request. She’s awesome

“That’s quite arrogant. I’m not her fan, but if she can do it, I don’t mind becoming one.”

“Isn’t she afraid her bluff will be exposed?”

“Since she’s so confident and arrogant, we won’t go easy on her.”

Following that, the paid trolls hurriedly searched for obscure and difficult songs. But Simone flawlessly

played them all while capturing the essence of each piece.

“Awesome. Simone is very talented.”

“How can my wifey be that great?”

“Wifey is so awesome! I love her!”

“She did it. She played all those songs. That’s amazing.”

“Most importantly, she played them on different instruments as requested by the haters. I want to be

her fan.”

Simone used different instruments to play different songs, leaving her fans cheering in excitement and

Her number of followers on Facebook skyrocketed again. The recorded footage from the livestream.

was posted on the internet.

The video titled “Simone: Let’s Go with Their Request‘ became a hit after her martial arts video. It not

only attracted more viewers to the livestream, but also caught the attention of several music lovers.

“Where are those who claimed Simone was acting according to the crew’s script?”

“If you’re so good at acting, w

you perform for us?”

“I would be impressed if all of that was pre–rehearsed.”

“Where are the haters? Come out!”

“I bet they’re feeling embarrassed and want to hide.”

Many of Simone’s fans and ordinary viewers mocked those who tried to frame and criticize her.

Meanwhile, the paid trolls and haters could do nothing but stay silent. What else could they do?

Continuing to criticize and frame Simone would only result in them being attacked.

At the Gray Residence, Titus had been watching the broadcast and looked gloomy. He never expected

his biological sister to be so talented in music and capable of playing such obscure and difficult songs.

His plan had failed.

Not only did he fail to frame Simone and the production crew, but he unintentionally boosted her

popularity, causing her banjo performance to trend and impress her fans. It even helped the show

prove its authenticity with no scripted elements.

Luca, who was watching the livestream, turned to Titus. Titus, your plan failed miserably. I told you

Simone is talented in music, Why did you pay those people to attack her with music?”

Luca was a popular and talented singer; he had a good relationship with Simone. While they weren’t as

close as Aaron and Simone, they got along well.

Simone would practice singing with him and even cooked meals that were good for his vocal cords.

However, he hoped Simone would understand her position in the family and stop competing with Jodie

or causing trouble. That’s why he supported Reuben, Titus, and Aaron’s plan to deal with her.

Now that Luca realized that Titus‘ plan had actually helped Simone instead of bringing her down, he felt

a sense of pride in having such an amazing biological younger sister. However, he also had mixed.

didn’t that mean she had surpassed Jodie?

Titus gave him a stern look. “If you can’t speak properly, then just be quiet. You did mention that she

had musical talent, but how was I supposed to know she was skilled in playing so many instruments?”

He asked, “Were you aware of that?”

Luca shook his head. “I had no idea she could play so many instruments.”

Then, he added helplessly, “She can play even more instruments than I can…”

Andrew was also taken aback by Simone’s performance and furrowed his brow. “Now, the question is,

what about Jedie?”
