Chapter 212
Lea spent the two–day weekend in the laboratory. She only returned to school at eight o’clock on Sunday night to attend the welcome party
Ever since. Res was carried away from the orientation site, he did not return
in to participate in the training. He did not return to school after that, Lea felt that he probably wouldn’t come
She did not know if it was because he had quit school since he lost the bet, or because of his leg injury. The students were already busy and received endless new things every day. They quickly forgot about this matter. However, Lea knew very well.
For someone as arrogant and self–righteous as Rex, since his leg was crippled and his self–esteem had suffered a serious blow, he would feel so inferior that he would not dare to return to school.
Most of the content of the welcome party was the students‘ talent show. The student union and the publicity department had programs to welcome this batch of new students.
Lea, Shannon, and Willow held their phones and waited for the party to end,
Lea and Shannon could use their phones to deal with work matters, Willow could also study her learning materials and not feel bored.
When it was about to end, the freshman representative, Abigail, performed the finale.
The host called out her name and invited her on stage.
The spotlight fell on her, and the room fell silent. All eyes fell on her, and they held their breath.
She was wearing a light pink princess dress and diamond hair accessories. They were all high–end designs from big brands. In such a simple and ordinary party, she looked luxurious,
Lea frowned when the dazzling light reflected from Abigail’s body shone into her eyes. She kicked up an Abigail and glanced at the piano on the stage. It was a high–end piano worth millions. Her frown deepened,
Lea thought, Abigal is really anxious to be in the limelight in school and gain fame. This gala is completely used to show her beauty and talent. The performance just now was just to pave the way for her. They were all her stepping stones:
Her phone vibrated. She looked down and saw a message fruan Alfred. (I’m coming |
She paused and thought, ‘He’s back from the business trip?”
She received another message. [Behind you.]
She turned to look. Behind the audience, a tall figure in a black shirt stood in the crowd. He was surrounded by staff, performers, and students coming in and out. He was squeezed among them. For the sake of the stage effect, the lights on his side were very dim.
However, she could see him clearly at a glance. His deep eyes were suffused with a graceful light that was as bright as the stars as he smiled at her. She only felt that her vision was bright and beautiful, and the gloominess was instantly swept away.
For the
pass
two days, she had been in a bad mood because of Milton. Now, everything was fine.
Abigail went on stage and sat down in front of the piano. She looked at the audience below the stage and was shocked.
Alfred was standing at the back of the audience, blocked by the crowd and shrouded in darkness. The light reflected in the distance outlined his distinct facial features. Her heart suddenly stopped beating.
It jumped again with a bang as if it was going to break out of her chest.
Abigail thought. It is Alfred! Why is he here?‘
Unable to think too much about it, she gazed at him intently and tears instantly welled up in her eyes.
The host began to introduce the song she wanted to play. “Next, the beautiful and talented Abigail will play an extremely difficult but beautiful song
forma.”
“How difficult is this song? Only famous pianists who are respectfully called masters can play it perfectly. Of course, Abigail also can. She’s already reached the highest level of the national piano test before she was ten years old”
Abigail was completely attracted by Alfred. She did not hear a single word of her praise from the host
It was not until the host finished speaking and called her a few times that she came back to her senses. She immediately wiped the hot tears on her face.
The host aseld, “Shall we begin!”
0
“Yes” She nodded, blinking as she adjusted her facial expression.
She thought. That’s great!”
Originally, she just wanted to take this opportunity to show her talents to her peers and gain a good reputation as a talented woman. Then, she would take a few photos and upload them to the forum to run for the school belle.
Ever since Lea displayed her powerful shooting, archery, and combat skills during orientation, her popularity had surpassed Abigail’s, be it among the freshmen or on the forums. Her votes had even surpassed hers. It made Abigail look ordinary and unremarkable.
Hence, as soon as she returned from orientation, Abigail meticulously planned this welcome party performance to regain her dignity.
Unexpectedly, Alfred came. Abigail felt that she was meant to shine
זה
that moment.
The timing was perfect. She was determined to impress him with her superb musical skills.
She thought, ‘Lea being publicly confessed to by Milion is nothing. When I receive Alfred’s recognition, I can ruthlessly surpass her. Mr. Alfred is much better than Mr. Milton. He is even better looking and is the Andrews family’s successor. In the future, the entire Andrews Group will be his
Abigail raised her hands and placed them on the piano. She elegantly pressed the first key. The beautiful notes sounded, and the hall immediately fell silent. Only the sound of the piano lingered, gradually bringing people into the beautiful music.
It had to be said that her piano skills were indeed very high, and she had chosen a a very good tune.
In the beginning. Lea could still listen to it, but soon, she became a line frustrated. In order to show her skill, Abigail chose a very long piece.
Additionally, Abigail’s eyes were always looking behind her. Lea already knew who she was looking at Following her gaze, she looked back again, and her expression instantly turned cold, She hated it the most when others coveted her man, not to mention that Abigail was her mortal enemy. She felt even more irritable.
It was not easy for Lea to hold on until Abigail finished playing. She packed her bag and wanted to rush out to go home with Alfred as soon as the gala ended.
“Lea. The host suddenly called her.
She looked up and saw the host smiling at her.
At this moment, Abigail was also walking down the stage with her skirt. He glanced at Lea and a malicious sneer flashed across her dark eyes.
The host continued, Lea, you’re the first among our batch of new students and also the representative of this batch of new students. You even obtained first place in the orientation. The gala is about to end. You should come up and perform for everyone.”
Lea’s expression immediately turned cold.
Originally, there was a segment at the gala to commend the outstanding results of the orientation, but this segment was gone. It was as if the star had forgotten about it.
Now that the host said this, Lea understood. In order to prevent hier from being in the limelight, she deliberately missed that segment.
Now, in order to trick her into going on stage, the host brought this segment back.
The host said, “Lea, come on.”
“That’s right, that’s right. We also want to see Lea’s performance” Lea looked over and saw some people around Leona cheering. From the looks of it, they wanted to coax her to go on stage. The way she looked at her was full of provocation and challenge.
The students also shouted Lea’s name.
No one had any intention of forcing her, nor did they respond to Leona and the others. Instead, they indeed were impressed by Lea and wanted to see her perform
Lea did not respond. She just looked at Leona and the others.
