Maya stared at Mia in disbelief. It was that children’s song that Maya could never possibly forget. Was

she hearing things?

How? How could this be?

The color drained from her face as her eyes widened in shock.

Previously, she heard that song by chance and began searching for the pianist from room to room. She

also came across Mia playing piano in the classroom.

Maya simply brushed it off, assuming that Mia was just there for a practice session.

In fact, Mia was actually one of the people Maya suspected. Mia was adopted, so she should be an

orphan.

Maya’s fingers were trembling. If Mia was the person she had been looking for–the true Ms. Lane she

had been looking for–what should she do?

Maya’s eyes scoured for Timothy. If the Lanes found Mia, would Maya lose her chance to be Mrs.

Barrett?

No, she would never let that happen!

Maya zeroed in on Mia performing onstage, her eyes mixed with malicious emotions as she thought,”

You’ve been sent away, so why are you still getting in my way?”

While performing, Mia flickered a glance at Claude because she couldn’t shake off the nervousness.

Merging both songs with the children’s song as the opening, she played both pieces in one go. She

initially thought that it would be difficult for her, but she managed to play it until the end.

When her fingers stopped, the hall was dead quiet.

Timothy couldn’t help but be astonished as he didn’t expect her to be this skillful. He had never heardher

playing the piano before.

When Timothy was going to clap his hands, Claude stood and applauded first with a proud grin. “As Iexpected, Mia’s the best.”

The corner of Timothy’s lips twitched.

A flustered Maya gaped at Mia, mixed feelings churning in her stomach. Maya was afraid that Claudemight replace out Mia’s true identity.

Yet, the clues began replaying in Maya’s head.

The way Claude, Connor, and Liam treated Mia; and how Jason’s lawyer team issued a letter for her

when she became the victim of awful rumors.

The clues were connecting each other, leading Maya to one conclusion.

Her eyes widened and her branded bag almost slipped out of her hand.

Perhaps, the Lanes had found Mia a long time ago and had been keeping Maya in the dark!

That’s right. That explained everything!

Otherwise, why would they treat Mia so well? Because of her sheer charms? That would make a feeble

reason.

Fear overshadowed Maya almost instantly. If they had found Mia, what would that make Maya?

Since they had found the true Ms. Lane, why didn’t they take her back to the family?

The more Maya thought about it, the more it didn’t make sense.

At the same time, Mia let out a smile in relief. It was nerve–wracking back there. Fortunately, she didn’tbring disgrace to the college’s name.

The host stood next to her. “Miss, your performance was marvelous! May I ask, how long have youlearned piano? Are you from the Music School?”
