Chapter 448
Confused, Dana asked, “How can I help you?”
Maya took out her phone and played an audio clip. “Are you the one playing this piece in the music room?
“Yeah, I am.” Still feeling quite perplexed, she inquired, “Ms. Lane, you mentioned that you’re looking for your childhood friend?”
“That’s right. I visited that orphanage in the past, and a friend from the orphanage helped me out when I
was lost.
“I haven’t lived in Bern City for years. I toiled my way here to find my childhood friend, but I couldn’t seem
to find her given how drastically things have changed.
“The only clue is this piece–she’s the only one who knows how to play it.”
Dana immediately thought of Mia. She taught her this piece, after all. Though they came from the same orphanage, Mia was no longer around when Dana arrived since she was two years younger than Mia.
Nonetheless, Dana had always been fond of Mia. A smile spread across her face. “I know where she is.”
She was certain that Maya was looking for Mia. Fate must’ve favored Mia. She thought such stories were only fictional, yet it was now happening right before her eyes.
Maya interrupted her in haste once she saw her expression. She feigned a hint of sorrow in her tone as she spoke, “I really want to find that friend. I’m eager to know how she’s doing now. I will definitely help
her out if she’s struggling.”
Dana’s envy for Mia intensified. However, Maya grabbed her hand the next instant. “I know it’s you. You must’ve resented me for not coming back to you after so many years. The distance was an issue.
“Moreover, my brothers didn’t allow me to return to Bern City because I almost got lost at the orphanage. Thus, I could only come for you now.
*Rest assured, you’re still my best friend. Tell me whatever you need, and I’ll help you out. I can even help you to publish your book or adapt the stories you wrote.”
Looking at Maya, Dana was tempted by her promises. Publishing her book? Adapting her stories?
Did that mean she would rise to fame quickly and become rich?
A hint of desire flickered in her eyes. As an orphan, people always pitied her. She had always wanted to prove herself. Once she succeeded, she would no longer need their sympathy,
It was up to her to decide when such a great opportunity was offered to her.
