While he was lost in thought, Suzanna had already moved to his side, gently wrapping her arm around his.

As she noticed his distracted expression, a flicker of something unreadable crossed her eyes.

Thinking back, Suzanna thought she hadn’t revealed any flaws. With a sweet, innocent smile, she playfully asked, “Carson, what’s wrong? Did I play it wrong?”

Carson’s expression turned grim. Though he hadn’t produced anything as groundbreaking as her debut album, he was still a dedicated musician, someone who pursued perfection in every note.

Moreover, three years ago, the piece Night Bloom Nocturne had been his source of inspiration, and he remembered every single note vividly.

Suzanna had played beautifully, yes, but the notes were wrong.

While they weren’t entirely incorrect, they differed from the version he had heard that night.

If Suzanna had truly been the original composer, even with slight modifications, she would’ve adjusted the notes back to the correct version.

For a moment, Carson’s thoughts became a tangled mess, clawing at him from within.

Her sister would never lie to him, right?

There must be an issue with the sheet music.

Even though he hadn’t looked closely at the music, it was all in her handwriting,

What had gone wrong?

The more Carson thought about it, the darker his expression grew.

Meanwhile, Derrick had already begun the proceedings, but Carson was still lost in thought.

Although Derrick wasn’t musically inclined himself, he could sense from the reactions around him how powerful and intricate the piano piece had been.

However, there was a peculiar expression on the face of the music expert who was seated beside the judge.

And then there was Melody. Her expression carried an amused smirk.

The young woman sat there, cool and detached, casually filing her nails. She seemed unaware of the legal storm swirling around her.

If convicted of plagiarism–and considering the immense profits she’d earned from those three theme songs–the case would exceed the court’s normal sentencing guidelines.

“Melody, do you plead guilty? According to Article 217 of the Criminal Law, if someone infringes on copyright for profit, causing significant financial damage, or under particularly serious circumstances, they could face up to three years in prison or detention, along with fines. If the amount is enormous or the circumstances are extremely severe, the sentence could increase to between three and seven years, with additional fines. And you, Melody, with three hit theme songs, have already earned over six million dollars. I could easily have you imprisoned. But you’re still my sister. I’ll give you one last chance. Leave the industry, apologize, and I’ll drop the case.”

Melody glanced at him. She was calm and carried an unshakable air of dignity and pride.

She smiled coldly, her demeanor unbothered by Derrick’s threats.

She tilted her head slightly, and her voice was lazy yet filled with a sharp edge. Tsk, done with your show? Well then, it’s my turn now.”

She tilted her head and spoke in a playful, innocent voice, which carried an eerie undertone.

Melody stood up, her gaze locking onto Carson with a glint of amusement in her eyes.

“Carson, you heard the original song, didn’t you? So, you already know that what Suzanna played wasn’t the same as the one from three years ago. I’ve written over a dozen versions of the arrangement for Night Bloom Nocturne. The one you have is just an early draft, not the final product. Every version, including the final one, is right here with me. Here it is. Suzanna, since you like collecting garbage so much, why not take these too? Maybe you can sell them for a few cents.
