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. | had a fervent passion for it in my youth, fostered by my

family. | 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?”

Those less familiar with the art whispered amongst themselves, “Is she truly that extraordinary? Why such

astonishment?”

Educated whispers soon clarified the matter.

“Extraordinary? That description hardly does justice. She is a luminary in the ballet world, akin to Einstein in

knowledge or Conan Doyle in detective fiction!”

With such vivid analogies, everyone grasped the significance immediately. In their hearts, they couldn't help but

marvel.

No wonder Stephanie, heiress to the Burnett legacy, had received personal tutelage from such an exceptional

figure for several years!

whispers. Unable to suppress a triumphant smile, she revelled in the adulation.

This was her domain! She was destined for the pedestal, to be admired and envied by the ordinary.

Milly, however, was taken aback upon hearing Stephanie’s mention of Lily. The nstirred her thoughts.

Lily? But that’s my dance instructor before | transmigrated into the book. Stephanie should only be a book

character. How does she know her?

Upon reflection, it seemed plausible. The , crafted by individuals, could easily have been drawn from real

life. Perhaps the author had known of Lily and chose to introduce a dance maestro with the snto

enhance authenticity. This realisation brought Milly scomfort.

Turning to Lucius, still engrossed in the video, she decided to steer the conversation.

“Lucius, given Stephanie's remarkable talent, do you recognise her? Would you like a private conversation with

her to share your thoughts?”

Milly's eyes sparkled with anticipation as she looked at Lucius, almost overflowing with excitement.

Lucius met her gaze, a smile spreading across his lips as he replied, “Of course.”

At that moment, Milly felt a surge of clation, almost ready to leap for joy. It seemed fate was finally favouring

her, aligning events with her heart's desire!

Stephanie, too, was pleasantly surprised. She was convinced that the heir of the Scathings had shown an

interest in her. If she played her cards right, she could secure a loyal ally and strong support for the future.

Taking a deep breath, she gracefully brushed a strand of hair behind her ear, revealing her delicate collarbone

and refined features. Pushing aside her shyness, she stepped forward and said, “Lucius, | have something to

discuss with you. Since we have stbefore the official training begins, shall we find a more private spot

to talk?”

Milly nodded in approval, her eyes welling with tears of gratitude as she glanced at Stephanie.

Oh yes. She finally does something right.

For the first time, she felt genuine admiration for Stephanie. In her eyes, Stephanie was an angel. She wanted to

scream and shout. With her task done, she could bow out of the play.

Milly was just about to grin, but then a voice said, “Piss off.”

EMP

Stephanie's smile faltered, frozen upon her face, her gaze locked on Lucius in utter disbelief. A pallor overcame

her complexion, marking the first tshe had been openly rebuffed in her privileged

existence.

But he just praised my dancing moments ago. How could he now pivot so sharply?

Even without turning, she sensed the smug gazes of her classmates, especially from her rival, Milly,

No, she couldn’t retreat now. Departing would only compound her humiliation.

She flashed a hopeful smile, willing him to reconsider.

To her astonishment, Lucius arched

an eyebrow, his SARL with

“I'm not blind, | can see it was you.”

Stephanie’s face drained of colour. “What do you mean?”

Lucius shot her a frigid glance. “It means | want you to leave.”
