Chapter 44: Storm

Lucas’s voice rang out, startling everyone in the room. Why did he suddenly say a name at random?

The teacher, who was under Lucas’s eye, was also surprised. Pointing to her face, she asked.

“Are you talking about me?”

Lucas was watching the teacher’s expression, a little lost for words. While everyone was still confused, he remained silent trying to understand the situation.

Although the “teacher” looked like Nicole, the agent he met at the hotel yesterday, there were some differences, such as hairstyle, eye color, the location of the beauty mark, and overall behavior.

Nicole has blue eyes, while the “teacher” in front of Lucas has emerald eyes. The location of the beauty mark on Nicole’s face was under her right eye, while the teacher’s was under her left eye.

The biggest difference however is the atmosphere. Nicole has a sharper and sexier atmosphere, while the “teacher” atmosphere is more relaxed and gentle.

‘They are different people.’

Lucas concluded after a few seconds.

‘Although they are different people, they are definitely related. By the incredible resemblance, twin sisters. Is she also an agent?’

Lucas watched the teacher’s movements as she approached.

“You are the new student, Lucas, right? Welcome to class. My name is Linda, and I teach music at this school. I think the principal told you before, but as you are entering at the end of the year, it will be very difficult, almost impossible, for you to participate in the activities that the rest of the students are doing.”

“These are activities that are being done by the students for weeks, and as far as final grades are concerned, your sudden arrival is very difficult to fit. Especially my class. We’re preparing a concert for the end of classes, and we don’t have enough time to fit a new instrument, and you won’t have time to practice either. So, according to what the principal has told us before, at the end of the class I will be giving you an individual activity that will decide your final grade in my class. Do we agree?”

Lucas smelled the sweet scent coming from the teacher’s body, and his mind calmed. She doesn’t appear to be an agent, nor has she reacted to the name “Nicole” previously. Although Lucas already knew that “Nicole” was not her real name, it also proves that the teacher is not involved. After all, if her twin was involved, she would even know the false name.

“Yes. But I’m not a bad musician. Are you sure I can’t fit in the concert?”

The teacher nodded and explained.

“Normally, it wouldn’t be that hard to fit you into my class, but this year the principal wants to make a bigger event at the end of classes, and asked for a difficult song that none of the students knew, not even me. We spent months training, and we still haven’t perfected it, it’s a very difficult song, I don’t think you’ll be able to keep up with the students who are months ahead of you in terms of training.”

With a curious expression, Lucas asked.

“What song?”

The teacher replied while shaking her head.

“You won’t know it, it’s called Plea to the Emperor.”

Lucas’ eyes lit up at the name of the song. Realization showed on his face as he put the pieces together.

“I even know how to play.”

Lucas’ words surprised the teacher. Music teacher for so many years, graduated in one of the best music academies in France, she had never heard of this music, how would Lucas know? Even when she searched for this song on the internet, she didn’t find any information.

The music was beautiful and perfect, which made it strange that it was not known by any of her colleagues in her profession, not even on the internet.

It even sounded like a completely new song, she has wondered several times if it was the director himself who wrote the song, or if it was someone he knew. As far as she knows, however, the director has no background in music.

“You know? I myself had never heard of this song before.”

Lucas smiled at the teacher’s words.

“If you had heard of this song before I would find it weird.”

Among the students in the room, Marcus looked at Lucas curiously. Beside him, a pretty girl approached and whispered.

“Where did he hear this song? Did someone record any of our rehearsals and put it on the internet?”

Marcus looked at his girlfriend, Amelia, and replied.

“That’s what makes the most sense. We’ve searched the internet before, and we’ve never found anything.”

Where did he hear about this song? All the students had already concluded that it was either a new song created recently or a song by some unknown composer that had never been released before.

Everyone agreed that it was a good song, which created the doubt of why this song never became popular before, giving more credibility to the idea of ​​being a newly created song.

The teacher was very curious about the music, so she pressured Lucas for answers.

“Why would it be weird if I had heard about this song before??”

Lucas, however, did not respond and simply changed the subject.
