A Life Beyond Limits novel Chapter 5

Feena was Eddie's, Jack's, and Wesley's dream girl during their childhood. However, they only dared to keep these feelings hidden, as the gap between them and Feena felt insurmountable.

When Feena saw Eddie and Wesley, she greeted them warmly. However, upon noticing Jack, she paused, clearly aware of the news about his expulsion.

A slight sigh escaped her as she felt a pang of sympathy for him. Being expelled meant that he had a bleak future.

Not wanting Jack to feel neglected, Feena hesitated for a moment before flashing him a perfect smile. "Hello, Jack!"

Jack sensed the fleeting pity in her expression. Such looks were reserved for the weak.

His chest tightened slightly, but soon, he gave her a bright smile. "Are you back to visit your grandfather?"

Jack was now strong enough not to be swayed by external circumstances. He believed he would eventually surprise those who doubted him, and that day was not far off.

Feena nodded and replied, "Yes. I'm here to see my grandfather and also to meet Mr. Cannon, who came all the way here to interview me."

Wesley exclaimed, "Is that the person who sang 'The Sleeping Guys?' He's going to be your mentor?"

Feena nodded again, a hint of pride evident on her face.

Wesley and the others looked at her in admiration. Donald Cannon was a towering figure in the music industry, both past and present.

Some of his iconic songs, like "The Sleeping Guys", had become classics, and they were celebrated and sung by many across the country. Television stations even featured Donald in special segments, recognizing him as one of the most influential figures in music over the past two decades.

Having such a musical legend as her mentor undoubtedly elevated Feena's status. Wesley and the others felt she was destined for a great future—far brighter than theirs. As a result, Eddie and Wesley found themselves trying a bit too hard to impress her during their conversation.

Feena was like a graceful swan soaring high above, while they felt like toads at the bottom of a well.

Wesley cautiously said, "Feena, our classes are holding a joint graduation party. Will you be coming?"

Given Feena's beauty, her absence would be a significant loss for the graduation ceremony. "I'll definitely be there," she replied with a warm smile.

Wesley and the others let out a collective sigh of relief. Soon after, Feena tossed her hair back and followed her father into the alley, a gentle breeze trailing behind her.

With the college entrance exams approaching, many graduation activities started taking place.

Jack received numerous farewell messages from his classmates at Crestfield High School. They were mostly from male friends he was close with. Their kind words warmed his heart.

However, what surprised him most was finding a message book scented with grass among them. It was a farewell gift from Phoebe.

"A man should be ambitious. Don't waste your youth. I believe in your talent. There are many paths in life, regardless of whether or not you get into college. When we meet again years from now, may we both be extraordinary."

Jack was overjoyed by her note. He couldn't help but picture Phoebe's stunning figure with long hair flowing down her back. He knew she sometimes came to watch boys play basketball, and whenever she did, the players seemed to give it their all.
