Night had fallen over Solara. In the presidential suite of the St. Peter Hotel, a man sat on the sofa in the lounge, his deep eyes fixed on the screen of his phone. laying on it was a video of Lillian’s performance from earlier that day.
A knock came at the door. One of his men entered, bowing as he handed over a folder. “Sir, this is the information I was able to obtain from the school p>
Eric took it and flipped through the contents carefully.
“An orphan…” he murmured.
“Yes,” the subordinate confirmed. “According to the principal, Lillian was admitted to Riverdale High School with the highest entrance score from a nearby county. The records identify her as an orphan. But I also heard she’s highly skilled in medicine – very well-known among Solara’s upper circles p>
“Medicine?” Eric’s expression flickered with surprise. He leaned forward, voice low and urgent. “Dig deeper. As detailed as possible. And keep this quiet – no one else is to know, not even the old man p>
“Understood.” The subordinate withdrew.

Eric lifted the glass of red wine from the table, swirling the dark liquid before taking a slow sip. His gaze drifted to the floor-to-ceiling windows, his mind far away. Could she really be the one I’ve been searching for?
Not long after the celebration ended, videos began spreading online.
Riverdale High School already had a certain prestige in Solara, so as soon as the clips were uploaded, the views skyrocketed. The performances were polished and impressive, each class showcasing unexpected talent.
But when Lillian’s performance appeared on the feed, the comment section went wild.
On stage, she stood in a flowing teal gown, ethereal under the glow of the lights. Her flawless features seemed almost untouchable, like a figure cloaked in starlight.
Her slender hands danced across the violin, coaxing a melody that was hauntingly beautiful. Every note carried grace, elegance, and an ache of longing that felt imeless.
By the end of the video, the internet was in an uproar.
“Who is that girl playing violin? She’s stunning p>
“She’s not just beautiful – she’s otherworldly p>
“Am I the only one who’s listened to this ‘fairy’s song’ aozen times already p>
“Not just you
– I’ve been looping it too. It’s incredible p>
“This is from Riverdale High’s anniversary. That must mean the fairy is one of their students p>
“Wait… am I the only one who thinks she looks exactly like the girl who sang at Central Plaza a while back? Same figure, same hair p>
“I live in Solara – I was there at the plaza that day. I can guarantee it’s the same girl p>

Before long, people were digging up the old plaza video putting it side by side with the new one, arguing over whether they matched.
Lillian hadn’t expected any of this. By the time she found out, the video had already gone viral, and her Twitter was flooded with questions asking if she was the mysterious girl in the clip.
Wayne even called, his tone helpless. The buzz had gotten too big to control. “Sir, it was already too late when we spotted it. Now it’s out of our hands. You’ll have to decide how to respond p>
Lillian rubbed her forehead, sighing. “There’s no need to respond at all. These things burn hot and fast, then fade the moment the next piece of gossip comes along. Leave it alone p>
“Alright, I understand,” Wayne said, then hesitated before adding, “By the way, about that violin piece you played… why don’t we add some lyrics and release it as a single p>
Exasperation practically slid down Lillian’s forehead. Her so-called subordinates never stop finding ways to squeeze her dry.
