Chapter 98
I Wish You Luck Too
Kaelyn approached Elyse with a welcoming gesture. "Hello, I'm Kaelyn Bennett. Nice to meet you." Hearing the name, Tracy glanced at Elyse in surprise. She remembered her as Theo's first love, someone he had been deeply infatuated with.
After a brief conversation with the orchestra members, Kaelyn excused herself.
"Elyse, are you alright?" Tracy embraced her, whispering comfortingly, "I had no idea Kaelyn was the host of this show. Will you continue to participate?"
"Why wouldn't I? It's an excellent opportunity. Even if Theo were the host, I would still participate," Elyse responded calmly as she tuned her violin.
Tracy said nothing more but watched Elyse with a look of concern
As the show started, she settled into a seat in the auditorium.
Eventually, Celestial Sounds Symphony appeared on stage, with Kaelyn overseeing the show
impartially. When it was time for a solo performance, she turned to Elyse
"I've heard you're the orchestra's rising star. Would you like to give us a
performance?"
"Of course, I'd be happy to. What would you like to hear? Elyse responded lightly.
Kaelyn paused, then smiled. "How about Clair de Lune', composed by Claude Debussy? I really
love that piece. It was a special song for me and my ex."
The male host, intrigued, leaned in. "Your ex? It sounds like you still have feelings for him! Are you
thinking of getting back together?"
Kaelyn covered her face with her hand, smiling shyly. "I'll let you know when it happens."
"It sounds like you're serious! Well, I wish you luck," he said.
"Thank you," Kaelyn replied, her gaze shifting to Elyse.
Elyse, sensing the moment, smiled back. "I wish you luck as well."
With that, she began to play the requested music, filling the room with melodious sounds.
Kaelyn had secretly hoped Elyse would falter, but to her surprise, she performed flawlessly. The audience erupted in applause at the conclusion of the piece, clearly impressed by Elyse's talent. Onstage, she was a sensation.
Kaelyn, frustrated that her plan had not worked, gritted her teeth. "Can I hear another piece? You play so well," she asked, trying to mask her irritation.
Elyse had likely surmised Kaelyn's motives, but she had already moved on from Theo. Her

comments did not affect her. "No problem
What would you like to hear?" she responded naturally and openly.
The male host, aware that each orchestra member was limited to one solo performance, quickly
intervened, "I'm afraid we should save time for the other members of the orchestra!"
Kaelyn, however, was dissatisfied. She had hoped Elyse would play a piece to wish her and Theo a happy ending together.Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Elyse remained silent, gracefully stepping back to await the show's

Throughout the event, she scanned the audience, spotting Tracy but not Jayden. It appeared he hadn't come.
She still hadn't seen him even after all the performances ended, and she proceeded backstage to remove her makeup.
After changing into her casual clothes, Elyse headed to the elevator and unexpectedly
encountered Kaelyn. "Let's take the elevator together. I need to get to the ground floor," Kaelyn

Elyse hesitated briefly before entering the elevator and stared at the floor, avoiding conversation. "I'm glad to see you seem okay. I was concerned you hadn't gotten over Theo. I'm kinda worried about you, Kaelyn commented.
Elyse looked up and met her gaze, her response icy. "If you were truly concerned, you wouldn't have come between us. You appear quite content being the other woman."
With a hint of grievance, Kaelyn replied, "I'm sorry I suffer from
depression and sometimes can't control myself. If you still resent me, I'm willing to apologize." "No need. I don't want that jerk anymore. You can have him."
As the elevator doors opened, Elyse exited first. Unexpectedly, Kaelyn tripped her.
Before Elyse could regain her balance, she stumbled forward. Bracing for impact, she shut her eyes tight, but instead of hitting the ground, she found herself caught in a warm embrace. "Are you okay?" a voice asked.
Lifting her head, Elyse looked into a pair of clear eyes. "Are you... Richie Larson?"
