Nolan hugged her. “So, how will you express your appreciation?”
Maisie stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the lips. “This is my favorite gift that I’ve ever received in my life. I’ll definitely keep it for a
lifetime.”
Nolan kissed her on the forehead and between the eyebrows. “I’m glad as long as you’re happy.”
The next day, flowers were in full bloom in the music academy, and the garden in the academy was filled with tender verdures. People were walking in the corridors, and several instructors passed by too.
“I heard that Jodie has returned to the academy to be an instructor. But didn’t she major in ballet?”
“So what if she majored in ballet? She won an award as a pianist. She won’t be at a disadvantage even when she returns to her alma mater as an instructor.”
“It’s said that she and Mr. Lucas were students of the same department, and she was the belle of the solo instrumentation department of the music academy. They would’ve been the perfect couple on campus if they had got together back then. It’s a pity that the Lucases wanted their son to marry someone who’s equal to him in status and family background. Not to mention that Mr. Lucas wasn’t interested in finding himself a girlfriend back then.”
Another female instructor tutted and shook her head. “It’s pointless for us to think about it now. Mr. Lucas is now married, and apparently. Ryleigh Hill is his perfect match. I really can’t understand why Mr.
Lucas would take a fancy to someone from the orchestra department.”
Ryleigh and Ruby were walking down the stairs and just happened to overhear the comments that the instructors of the solo instruments department were making about Ryleigh.
Ruby frowned and then laughed out loud deliberately. “It’s no wonder that some students from the solo instruments department are so arrogant and defiant. It turns out that they’ve been taught so. Sure enough, the apples don’t fall far from the trees.”
The instructors turned their heads and were about to say something, but they saw Ryleigh’s upset expression. Thus, they muttered something to each other and left in a hurry.
