Chapter 111

Time flew by, and before I knew it, two days had passed.

During that time, I tried going to the piano room to practice, but it was either locked, already occupied, or-most ridiculously-I was told the key had been "lost". Such a pathetic excuse; anyone with half a brain could tell someone was messing with me. And honestly, who else at St. Nicholas University would bother to cause trouble for me besides Leah?

I found it amusing. What was the point of blocking my practice? Did she think that by stopping me from rehearsing, I wouldn't be able to perform?

Since practicing the piano was clearly impossible, I simply decided not to bother. Instead of wasting time on this nonsense, I focused on more important matters, like discussing land deals with Liam.

While I remained calm, Brenda was anxious. She tried everything to get me time in the piano room, nearly getting into a fight with them at one point.

Two hours before the show, she finally gave up. She sprawled on a couch, scrolling through TikTok and taking photos to pass the time. For the performance, I chose a long blue gown. This color was Grandma's favorite, so it held special meaning. I snapped a picture and sent it to her caretaker, then sent a voice message to Grandma to let her know I'd be performing soon.

"Let me fix your hair, come here." The show was scheduled to start at 6:00 pm. After getting my hair done and grabbing a quick meal, we hurried to the venue.
