A Life Beyond Limits novel Chapter 130

Bella's roommates were caught up in a heated discussion in her dorm room.

Gigi, who was still in awe, exclaimed, "Oh my goodness! Is that Timeless Years on piano? I never thought I'd ever hear it performed live in this country! Phoebe is probably the one playing the piano, but who's on the guitar?"

Leila chimed in, "Could it be Luca? He's the only one who can play this well!"

Gigi shook her head. "I don't think so. Even Luca doesn't have this level of skill. This is pure mastery. And more importantly, the piano and guitar blend together perfectly. It's as if their hearts are in sync. Only true soulmates can play with this kind of harmony."

But the problem was that Phoebe and Luca weren't together.

So, who could it be?

After tossing around theories, none of them could reach a conclusion. Finally, Lily declared, "I think the guitar part was pre-recorded. Phoebe probably played the piano live, but the guitar must've been from the original track."

Only Bella remained silent, lying in bed, staring toward the campus radio station. Her delicate brows were furrowed in deep thought.

Regardless of who had played, the duet of Timeless Years had already become a legendary moment at Alnewgo University.

The song had ended, but its echoes still lingered in the air.

"That was incredible," said Phone as they got back to the radio station. Her voice was soft, but admiration shone in her eyes. Even she could hear the applause rising from outside the building.

She could hardly believe that Jack had picked up the song after only glancing at it once—and played it flawlessly.

"You were amazing, too," Jack responded.

Phoebe's piano skills were remarkable. But what struck him even more was the connection they had while playing. It was a rare, almost surreal feeling—like two souls intertwining through music, understanding each other without words.

For Jack, this was more than just a duet.

For a fleeting moment, he imagined what it would be like if he and Phoebe could play together every day.

Wouldn't that be beautiful? But did Phoebe feel it, too?

He glanced at her expression, hoping to find some hint of emotion.

Yet, she seemed calm—her face holding no sign of the deep connection he had felt. Maybe this was just another song to her.

The thought left a dull ache in his chest.
