Chapter 1712:
“| remember it perfectly. It's scheduled for exactly half a month from today,” Belinda responded without
hesitation.
Her highly anticipated piano solo performance had been delayed due to the job exposure incident and the
physical injury that followed.
“Then have you been practicing the piano every day lately?” Jazmine asked.
Belinda fell into an uncomfortable silence, unease washing over her. She whispered, barely audible, “No... |
haven't.” After a brief pause, she quickly added, “I'm truly sorry. | shouldnt have neglected my piano practice.
From this moment forward, | give you my word that I'll carve out tto practice every single day. | won't allow
myself to slack off again.”
Belinda believed that this was, without a doubt, her own fault—there was no excuse she could cling to. She had
been slacking off because she knew those pieces like the back of her hand.
Jazmine let out a long, weary sigh, her voice tinged with resignation. “I know you have a demanding schedule—
endless shifts, surgeries, and barely a moment to breathe. You're overworked, exhausted, and constantly pulled
in a dozen directions. But none of that gives you a free pass to coast when it comes to the piano. Just because
you know those pieces like the back of your hand doesn’t mean you can slack off. Practice is still non-negotiable.

Jazmine paused, thinking it over for a heartbeat before speaking with firm finality. “Starting today, you'll carve
out two hours every single day to practice at my place. No excuses. I'll personally supervise you.”
“Okay.” Belinda didn’t dare utter a word of protest.
“That's more like it.” Jazmine's voice lost its edge. “Alright then, I'll let you get back to work. We'll talk more
when we see each other tonight.”

“Alright,” Belinda replied.
With the call ended, Belinda set the phone down with a quiet sigh and returned to changing her clothes, slipping
back into her routine as she steeled herself for another long day ahead.
