Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore

Chapter 1118 Criticisms
Upon hearing these words, Blaze was deeply offended.
“Do you want to die?” he snapped at Emmanuel, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
Blaze, the young master of the Silverbane family, couldn’t believe that a mere employee of Terence Group would dare to defy
him. In his eyes, this person was simply courting death!
Even if the president of Terence Group were present, they should still show utmost respect to someone of his stature!
“Mr. Silverbane, please calm down,” Felicia interjected, trying to diffuse the tension. She then turned to Emmanuel and asked,
“What is Mr. Lowe’s evaluation of my performance?”
This was the second time she had asked Emmanuel, and it left everyone puzzled. Why was she so eager to hear his thoughts?
Even the mysterious couple standing behind the railing couldn’t understand what made Emmanuel so special.
“Miss Felicia, are you sure you want me to say it?” Emmanuel replied, his expression unfriendly. He was known for being
straightforward and not one to flatter or bootlick.
“Please go ahead,” Felicia insisted, noticing his expression but still gesturing for him to speak.
“Well, in my opinion, your zither performance is actually quite good. You’re skilled in all aspects,” Emmanuel responded
immediately.
As soon as he finished speaking, Blaze snorted coldly. “Skilled in all aspects? So, are you saying that there isn’t a single aspect
where Miss Felicia lacks skill?”
Upon hearing his own words, Blaze realized his mistake and immediately froze. His face tensed as he tried to explain to Felicia,
“Miss Felicia, I didn’t mean to imply that you lack skill in any aspect. What I meant was...”
The more he explained, the more convoluted it became, as Blaze had fallen into Emmanuel’s trap.
Many people in the room couldn’t help but laugh.
Even Nathan burst into laughter, surprised by Emmanuel’s cunning side.

Though Felicia’s eyes showed a hint of displeasure, her tone remained polite. “Mr. Lowe, since believe I lack skill in every
aspect, please enlighten me.”

Derrick, too, was taken aback. He hadn’t expected Emmanuel to be so audacious.
He had thought Emmanuel was an honest person, but it seemed he had hidden his true abilities too well!
However, all the men present tonight were admirers of Felicia. If Emmanuel couldn’t come up with a convincing response, he
would surely face their wrath.
Sure enough, all the men in the room glared at Emmanuel with hostility, clearly displeased with him..
Emmanuel, however, remained unfazed and walked forward with a faint smile. He spoke slowly, “I dare not claim to offer
guidance, but I can express my feelings as an audience member. I hope you can take my advice and elevate your performance
in the future.”
The crowd took a sharp breath.
Though Emmanuel’s words were polite, everyone felt that he was too arrogant.
In their opinion, Felicia’s performance was flawless. They didn’t believe that this employee from Terence Group could find any
faults.
“Firstly, your musical style is incorrect,” Emmanuel explained. “Look at the venue. It’s filled with lights and revelry. Don’t you think
the zither is out of place in this setting? The zither is a classical instrument. If you had chosen to perform in a bamboo forest or
by a flowing river in the mountains, it would have been absolutely marvelous. But instead, you chose to perform in a nightclub.
It’s simply incompatible! Thumbs down!”
As soon as he said that, the men in the audience suddenly realized that he was right.
Felicia couldn’t refute it and could only accept the criticism with a smile. She said, “Mr. Lowe, you’re absolutely right. I didn’t
know how to perform like those DJs, yet I insisted on performing in a place like this to please the audience. It’s indeed a bit
embarrassing!”

“It’s good that you understand,” Emmanuel replied, not letting her off the hook just because she tried to turn the situation around.
He continued, “The second issue is your demeanor and expression.”
The crowd was taken aback once again.
What was wrong with Felicia’s demeanor and expression?
Even Felicia herself perked up her ears, curious to see how Emmanuel would ridicule her this time.
“Since you claim to be here to please the audience, you’re admitting that you are nothing more than an actress. However, you
put on an aloof attitude, as if you were a celestial being. I think you see yourself as a star and want everyone to go out of their
way to please you, don’t you?”
