“When is she coming back? I’ve heard that Mrs. Nolan doesn’t show herself in public, so I never got the chance to meet her. I have to make her like me!” Hera beamed as if she’d found herself one last hope.

“I’ll keep my ears open.” Jenny smiled. “I can get the information easily since I’m a flight attendant. I’ll let you know once I find out.”

“You really are my best friend! I’m going to owe you so much if you help me this time!”

Hera’s life had been chaotic for the past few weeks. She even had to wear a face mask when she was out in public. Yet, she’d never expected that her high school friend would help her when she was in trouble.

“Don’t worry about it. We’re best friends after all.” Jenny’s mouth was still smiling, but her eyes weren’t.

It was still early at the State Concert Hall.

When everyone arrived, they were shocked to see everything, from the stage to the lightings, being changed to brand-new ones. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Everything looked majestic, especially the screen and the lights.

“Wow! What happened here?”

“This is amazing!”

“Isn’t this lighting a hundred times better than the last one?”

“Did Ms. Berry change these?”

When Ashlyn stepped in, she was shocked by what she saw as well.

“It definitely wasn’t me.” Ashlyn shook her head. What’s happening here?

Just as Ashlyn was puzzled by the new settings, she received a message from Lucas. ‘How’s the new stage?’

Ashlyn was speechless and had no idea how to reply to him.

Upon inspection, Ashlyn realized that the stage had been redesigned, including the lifting platform and all the other minor details. Yet, even when everything was brand-new and redesigned, there was still a sense of familiarity.

Ashlyn guessed that the designer had spent a long time on this.

She had to accept the fact that Lucas was a thoughtful person.

‘Mr. Field will thank you for this.’ Ashlyn quickly replied.

‘Of course. The Nolan Group is the biggest sponsor for the National Day Gala Night.’

Ashlyn did not know how to react, but his message did remind her that Centennial Healthcare had to step up their game as well.

Ignoring Lucas’ message, Ashlyn quickly sent a message to Jared to talk about their sponsorship for the gala. Even if they could not take the biggest sponsor spot, they could still advertise at the gala to make themselves known.

‘Okay.’ Jared replied.

With the new stage installed, Ashlyn coordinated the performances and started their rehearsal accordingly, which would be able to take some tension out when it was time for the real performance.

Everything went by smoothly. When Ashlyn went to the restroom during break time, she left her cup of water on a chair beneath the stage.

As soon as Ashlyn left, a cleaner stopped in front of the chair for a few seconds before leaving. Not one person noticed the cleaner’s action.

Ashlyn returned to her seat three minutes later. She was about to drink from her cup when she noticed tiny bubbles in the water and frowned.

It would be impossible to notice the bubbles if one didn’t pay enough attention to them.

Ashlyn turned to Charlotte, who was the nearest to her, and asked, “Did someone touch my water just now?”

“I don’t think so,” Charlotte shook her head. Since she was completely focused on her own instrument, she didn’t notice the cleaner who stopped by a few moments ago. “Why?”

“Nothing…” Ashlyn replied and left with her glass of water.

She walked straight out of the hall and stopped in front of a potted plant before pouring the water into the pot.

Bubbles began to form and rise as the water touched the soil.
