Chapter 279 It’s a Wild Ride
Lucius lowered his gaze, watching the ballet video playing on the phone with an air of composure. Milly, mindful of his towering stature potentially obscuring his view, discreetly held up the device for him, all the while observing his reaction covertly.
There was a contemplative air about him, his countenance betraying no emotion. Milly found this disconcerting. Wasn’t he expected to be enthralled by Stephanie’s ballet prowess? Yet, with the performance unfolding before him, there was no discernible response.
Could it be that he had never truly watched Stephanie dance before?
Just as Milly contemplated queuing up another of Stephanie’s performances, Lucius’s tranquil eyes suddenly flickered, akin to a pebble dropped into a serene pond, stirring ripples of intrigue.
Upon witnessing this subtle change, Milly couldn’t suppress a surge of satisfaction. Success! Her assistant’s intervention had proven efficacious. Lucius had indeed taken an interest!
Excellent. The pieces were falling into place according to plan. Lucius’s future attentions would likely be directed towards Stephanie, affording Milly a graceful retreat from the forefront.
Milly blinked and ventured softly, “What do you think? Isn’t it beautiful?”
In an uncommon gesture, Lucius nodded thoughtfully and arched an eyebrow. “Hmm.”
At his response, Milly’s eyes gleamed with hope. There was promise in his acknowledgement.
Meanwhile, Stephanie, buoyed by the positive feedback after her recent embarrassment, instantly brightened. The earlier distress on her countenance dissipated, replaced by a hint of pride.
“In truth, my skills in ballet are quite commendable. I had a fervent passion for it in my youth, fostered by my family. I trained under Ms. Lily for four or five years, although I regret not becoming her formal apprentice.”
Upon hearing Stephanie’s revelation, the onlookers gasped in awe.
“Lily? The globally renowned ballet maestro?”
“Indeed. Who else could it be, excelling so in ballet?”
