Chapter 863: After the shock, there comes joy.

Joanna Lawrence wasn't ready at all.

She was extremely nervous.

She didn't hold out much hope for this audition, even though Gary White had told her she was talented, and that she was the one Gerard North had been seeking.

But she could sense that Gerard didn't seem to like her much.

Not to mention how high the standards of a musician of Gerard's caliber must be.

She didn't think an amateur like her, without any professional training, could satisfy Gerard North.

But Gary White was well-intentioned and truly wanted to help her. Regardless, she felt she should give it her best shot.

After a few moments of silence, she took a deep breath, trying to ease her tension: "Ok, I... I'm ready."

"Then follow me."

Gerard turned around and walked toward a room, pushing the door open.

Joanna followed him in.

This was a room similar to a recording studio, equipped with various recording facilities.
