Chapter 1045
Many passersby and tourists had gathered outside the courtyard. After all, the combination of modern and
classic musical instruments was rather eyecatching.
The song “Dance of the Dark” started with the combination of bass and electrophonic organ. Toward the middle of
the song, harp, flute, and drums joined in, stirring up the souls of the people around as well as
shocking them.
Then, the song changed again. It became “Lighthouse” and “Love under the Sky.” The former was played with flute
and guitar, while the latter was a mixed arrangement played with violin. It did not sound out of place at all.
More and more tourists were gathering around them. Maisie had been uploading their performance live. Initially,
there were only 100 or so viewers, but more and more viewers joined the live session as time went on. Soon, about
100,000 viewers were watching their performance online.

#The clash between contemporary pop and classical music! I like it!
#The girl playing the harp is so pretty!#
#Is it only me, or the girl playing the harp looks a lot like an instructor from the orchestra department in the Royal
Academy of Music?#
#I’m learning how to play the harp now. Classic musical instruments are my favorite!#
#Is this another advertisement?
#1 think it’s more like a promotional video. The combination of modern and classic music is great!#
When their performance ended, Ryleigh hade them farewell before returning to Maisie. “How was it?” Maisie
handed her phone to Ryleigh and said, “Look at it yourself.” Ryleigh hurriedly took over her phone and was shocked.
“There were so many viewers!?”
Maisie couldn’t help herself but chuckle.” Now you know what to expect. Make sure you don’t mess up the trailer
later on.”
Ryleigh was so happy that she gave Maisie a hug. “Thank you so much, Zee!”
In the meantime, at the Royal Academy of
Music…
Louis was making coffee in his office when he received a message on his phone.
He picked his phone up and froze when he saw the message. Maisie had sent the recording of Ryleigh’s
performance on the street to him.
He watched the video and let out a laugh before saving the recording on his phone.
Ryleigh waved her hand at Maisie after she dropped her at the academy. After that, she hopped happily into the
campus.
When she was climbing the stairs, she bumped into Jodie and froze.
Initially, she wanted to pretend that she did not see her. However, Jodie grabbed her arm and hissed when
she walked past her. “Now you and Xyla have made me look like a fool. Are you happy now?” Ryleigh let out a smirk
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmand pulled her arm out of Jodie’s grip. “Ms. Smalls, please be reasonable. We were not the ones who made you look
like a fool.
“Can’t you find the reason from yourself as to why Xyla chose to expose you?”
Jodie looked at her expressionlessly and said, “It was hard enough for me to return to the academy. I’m just paving
my path. I didn’t do anything wrong.”
She went closer to Ryleigh and added, “I’m aware that people like you who are born with a silver spoon in your
mouth look down on someone like me. I just want to fit into society. What have I done wrong? But it’s because of
you and Xyla that everyone is pointing their fingers at me right now.” Ryleigh looked at Jodie, who was gnashing her
teeth in exasperation. Her face sank, and she asked, “SO you think you’re weak?”
Jodie did not say anything.
Ryleigh then continued in a severe voice.” Don’t always think that you’re the victim and that it’s other people who
push you into your current situation. It was you who wanted to harm me in the first place but got exposed by Xyla
instead. If you think you’re being wronged, then what about me? What you can do, we can’t do. Don’t you think
you’re a little bit too double standard?”
Just when she turned around and prepared to leave, Jodie suddenly grabbed her, refusing to let her go. Ryleigh was
infuriated and shouted, “What the hill is wrong with you?” “Let’s make a bet then. Let’s bet which side the public will
stand on. Do you believe that people will always have sympathy for me since I’m the weak one?”
