CEO's Reborn Wife

Chapter 484: Chapter 492: Banana Allergy

”Banana allergy?” John Young laughed, ”You’re the third person I’ve heard of with a banana allergy, the first was your Mr. Carter, the second was Mr. Carter’s mother. I’ve heard of allergies to mangoes and eggs, but banana is quite rare.”

”Mr. Carter can’t eat bananas too?” Jane Sampson glanced at James Carter, covering her mouth to stifle a light laugh, ”Looks like I’m not alone. Before, whenever anyone offered me a banana, I never dared to say I was allergic, afraid of being laughed at. I just said I didn’t like bananas.”

After saying this, Jane Sampson smiled again with a bend in her eyebrows, ”Luckily, I really don’t like bananas anyway, otherwise, I’d be tormented with cravings!”

”Yes.” James Carter also seemed surprised, ”I inherited it from my mother, we’re both allergic to bananas.”

”I don’t know who I inherited it from.” Jane shrugged, then moved on from the topic and passed the menu to John’s hands, ”You two have been here before and are familiar with this place, you pick the vegetables, I’m not picky with food.”

John Young and James Carter didn’t mess around declining back and forth with Jane. They were all easy-going people, and with no one else around, there were no pleasantries or formalities.

After ordering, John Young spoke to Jane Sampson about the premiere event, ”The premiere is set in the largest opera house in City Smytheton. I’ve personally inspected all the audio equipment on site. It’s definitely one of the top-quality setups in domestic opera houses. My plan is that after the movie screening, you two will take over for a live performance. There will be a piano on scene for James Carter, and all you’ll need to do is focus on singing.”

As he spoke, John Young sighed, ”I went back to review your competition and performance videos, and originally I wanted both you and James Carter to have a duet with the piano, but James said you haven’t touched the piano for some time and have become a bit rusty. It’s a pity because the premiere was scheduled perfectly. Otherwise, if you could pick up the piano again, right after the movie ends, both of you performing live would definitely make a profound impression on the audience.”

”Indeed, I haven’t touched the piano for too long, and picking it up again in a short time isn’t likely.” Even Jane Sampson herself felt regretful, ”If I had known there would be this opportunity to perform alongside Mr. Carter, I would have never given up playing the piano back then.”

Jane Sampson sighed, ”What’s most regrettable is that I met Mr. Carter too late.”

If she had met James Carter before she became fixated on her troubles, with his guidance, Jane Sampson surely wouldn’t have given up the piano after so many years.

And she wouldn’t have the heart to do so.

But, the meeting came too late and what shouldn’t have been given up has been let go.

The path walked can no longer be retraced.

”No worries, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Isn’t James Carter holding a comeback concert? Let him reserve a spot for you as an honored guest.” John Young comforted Jane Sampson, who truly seemed regretful.

Whether someone’s emotions are genuine or not, John Young, who has met all sorts of people, can see right through them.

Jane Sampson’s fondness for James Carter was real, but it had nothing to do with romantic love. It was a kind of faith, a spiritual reliance and admiration.

Every time Jane addressed Mr. Carter, she did so with a particularly respectful tone, with no hint of insincerity or disdain.

Even though James Carter had changed somewhat from before, in Jane Sampson’s eyes, he was still that James Carter. What she cherished was his talent, the soul and meaning he gave to music.
