“Indeed, it has nothing to do with you, and it’s certainly none of your business!” Mia retorted before


    making her way toward the academic building.


    As Maya caught on, she watched Mia’s departing figure with frustration. “Mia, you’d better hold on and


    exin yourself!”


    Mia nced back. “Edwin’s grandfather lived a long life because he minded his own business! Whether


    I


    learn no or not is none of your concern!”


    With those words, Mia continued on her way, a faint smirk ying on her lips as she dismissed Maya’s


    earlier derogatory remarks.


    ying the piano was merely a hobby for Mia.


    She had no intentions ofpeting or joining the music team for the uing show. Her goal was


    simply to fulfill the unmet desires from her early years.


    Despite her fading memories of childhood, ying the piano faintly revived fragments of her past.


    Mia went directly to an empty ssroom on the fourth floor to practice. With a deep breath, she began


    ying the piano piece from memory.


    ying this nursery rhyme always brought her a sense of tranquility.


    The room was soon filled with the sound of the piano, its melodies intertwining with the harmonies of


    other instruments echoing throughout the building.


    Maya’s demeanor swiftly changed upon recognizing the familiar melody of a piano nearby.


    Her expression turned uneasy. “Did you hear that?”


    Charlotte looked puzzled. “Ms. Lane, what exactly are you referring to? I do detect different musical


    sounds, but considering sses are still in session…


    “No, I mean the piano piece. Did you hear that melody that sounds like a nursery rhyme? Do you know.


    who usually ys it?”


    Maya had previously tasked ke with investigating all the people she added on WhatsApp.


    However, none of them matched the identity she was seeking, and they all imed to be unaware of


    the nursery rhyme’s existence.


    Nheless, Maya unmistakably recognized the familiar piano melody.


    Despite her frequent visits to this cetely, she hadn’t encountered the specific tune again.


    Doubt began to creep into Maya’s mind, questioning if she had misheard or perhaps even experienced


    a


    hallucination.


    But now, Maya couldn’t believe she was hearing the familiar piano tune once again.


    Maya was certain it wasn’t an illusion this time. She retrieved her phone and recorded the sound of the


    music at that moment.


    Although the piano melody was somewhat obscured amidst the sounds of other instruments, Maya


    could still distinguish it.


    Indeed, that piece of music was something she would never forget in her lifetime.

    Charlotte cautiously said to Maya, “I heard you’re looking for the person who yed this piece. Maybe


    you could tell me more about this piano piece?


    “I’ve been around this university forever, so perhaps I’ll stumble upon your mystery person someday.”


    Maya smiled. “Yes, I’m searching for a childhood friend. We were incredibly close, but circumstances.


    forced us apart.


    “I’ve been on a quest to find her. This pianoposition is something we used to y together as


    children, something known only to the two of us.”


    “What’s your friend’s name. Ms. Lane?”


    “She’s a friend I met at the orphanage. Please don’t get the wrong idea; it was during the time I used to


    volunteer there.”


    Maya swiftly hid her background; she wasn’t about to disclose to anyone that she, too, had grown up in


    an orphanage.


    As Maya gazed at the building before her, a flicker of darkness shed in her eyes.


    Now, she was almost certain that the true heiress of the Lane family was inside that building!
