"This guy calls himself a genius songwriter, yet he doesn't even know who Vincenzo is." "I know! Vincenzo is the thief who stole Mona Lisa!" "That's right!" Watching from the living room, I couldn't help but smirk. Although Lucas could read my thoughts, he couldn't grasp the deeper meaning behind them. It was like knowing one plus one equaled two but not understanding the significance of two. Unsurprisingly, the rest of the judges all gave him failing scores. Lucas' face was red from anger. Then, he threw his microphone down on stage. ---- My mom burst into laughter and gave me a big hug." That was brilliant, Matthew! Your tactics are way smarter than your dad's!" Just as she mentioned my dad, her phone rang. My dad called and said that there had been some progress and asked us to come to Terak in a few days. My mom was too excited and immediately booked us ared-eye flight. As soon as we arrived at the airport, Winnie called. "You did this on purpose, didn't you, Matthew? You knew all along!" I feigned innocence and replied, "What are you talking about, Ms. Summer? You should be careful with your accusations. I can sue you for slander." "Just you wait!" she spat before hanging up.
