Elyse had spent the entire afternoon playing her violin, only stopping when dinner was ready. By the tshe
returned to the living room, Jayden had already arrived home. He set his phone down and raised an eyebrow at
her. “Why are you practicing so much today?”
Lifting her chin proudly, she replied, “Cody acceptedas his apprentice. I'll start at his stutomorrow,
joining four others under his tutelage.”

Jayden seemed a bit taken aback. “You're sure Cody accepted you as his apprentice? Maybe you
misunderstood.”
Frustrated at his disbelief, Elyse quickly asked Driscoll to confirm. “Tell him I've been accepted by Cody.”
Driscoll nodded, a grin spreading across his face. “Yep, | accompanied her. Mr. Tucker really sees potential in her
musical abilities.”

With this, Jayden’s tone softened. “Well, he’s good, and he clearly has an eye for talent.”
Elyse couldn't help but snort at Jayden. “I'll be learning from him now, and I'll improve so much.”
With excitement bubbling up inside, she hurried upstairs with her violin case. Jayden watched her with a helpless
smile before turning to Driscoll. “She's quite lucky, isn’t she?”
Driscoll shook his head. “No, | don’t think so. She is genuinely talented.”
Jayden smiled warmly.
In her room, Elyse messaged her friends from the Celestial Sounds Symphony, but with a performance around
the corner, they were too busy with rehearsals to respond. So she sent messages to Richie and Tracy instead.
She didn’t expect either to reply immediately, but Richie called her right away. Answering quickly, she asked,
“Aren’t you busy?”
“I'm done. I've got tnow,” Richie replied. After a brief pause, he asked, “So you just found out you're his
apprentice?”
His question left her confused. “What do you mean? You already knew.”
“Yeah, he cback from abroad for you. He knew from the beginning you'd be his apprentice.”
Elyse was stunned, finding it hard to believe. “But I've never met him. Why would he chere for me?”
Richie explained, “I showed him a video of your performance in the park, and he was intrigued. When you later
competed for concertmaster of the Celestial Sounds Symphony and word got out that he was looking for an
apprentice, | was confused because you were already the one he'd chosen.”
Elyse felt overwhelmed. “So I've been his apprentice this whole time? Why didn’t anyone tell me?”
Richie seemed a little embarrassed. “At first, Uncle Cody toldnot to say anything. Then | got wrapped up in
my own work and forgot. | assumed you knew.”
“Why do you call him uncle?” she asked.

“Because he is my uncle,” he replied, clearly proud of the connection.
Elyse was taken aback and struggled to process it. “Wow, | guess | missed that completely.”
Richie chuckled before adding, “When you visit my uncle’s stutomorrow, you'll meet his other apprentices.
They're not easy to deal with, they're stuck-up and hard to please.”
The description made Elyse nervous. “Really? Are they difficult to get along with?”
He said with certainty, “I can’t handle them, so | rarely visit the studio.”
Elyse bit her lip, her emotions swirling. After Richie hung up, she sat on the sofa feeling uneasy. When he
mentioned how stuck-up they were, she thought of Vicky. Would four Vickys be waiting for her at the studio?
Meanwhile, in his office, Theo stared blankly at a photo on his phone. An assistant approached, saying, “Elyse
isn’t on the list for the Celestial Sounds Symphony’s performance this time. I'm looking into it.”
Theo raised his head, surprised. “Wasn't she the concertmaster last time? Why isn’t she on the list now?”
The assistant replied respectfully, “I'm investigating the situation. I'll get back to you once it’s done.”
Theo frowned, concerned. Was Elyse sick? He hadn't heard any recent updates about her.
