Chapter 403
Maya couldn’t shake off the impending wave of panic. Was it truly her returning?
But that seemed impossible.
Maya vividly recalled taking care of her, ensuring she would never reappear.
Yet, the familiar piano melody revived Maya’s deep–seated fear.
Initially, it wasn’t Maya who was sought out by the Lane family; it was her old friend, Mimi.
Consumed by jealousy, Maya resorted to deception to assume Mimi’s identity, ensuring Mimi would
never know the truth.
However, Dominic eventually uncovered the switch. Maya could only claim to have encountered a girl
like Mimi at an orphanage in the past, unable to recall where that girl had gone.
In reality, that girl was at the same orphanage as Maya.
Maya’s scheming resulted in Mimi leaving the orphanage and being adopted, thus preventing Dominic
from meeting his real sister.

any clues.
Over time, Maya seemed to have forgotten her true identity, believing herself to be the Lane family’s
real heiress.
Now, hearing this familiar melody again, Maya was shocked.
The piece was composed by Rowan to comfort the children at the orphanage, known only to them.
At the time, none of the other children could play the piano except for Mimi, the true heiress of the
Lane. family.
Rowan had a special affection for Mimi, often praising her talent and hoping she would be adopted by a
wealthy family.
Maya had always envied Mimi for being so obedient and favored by Rowan.
Maya, too, had dreams of being adopted by a wealthy family. However, with every opportunity that
arose, Rowan would only recommend Mimi, leaving Maya feeling sidelined.
Driven by jealousy and resentment, Maya eventually assumed Mimi’s identity.
Maya later learned that Mimi’s adoptive family was not wealthy; they had adopted her because they
were unable to have children of their own.
Over the years, Maya found great contentment in her newfound wealth.
At first, she fretted incessantly, haunted by the fear that one day the Lane family would uncover the
truth -that she was an imposter–and cast her out.
As the years went by. Maya’s worries began to diminish, thinking that perhaps she would never be
exposed during her lifetime.
Yet, as the familiar piece resonated once more, evoking her memories of every note, even down to the
pauses, Maya was suddenly struck by a startling realization–it was her! Mimi had resurfaced!
Frantically. Maya dashed through the academic building, trembling with fear as she searched each
room.

The mere thought of the real heiress being discovered filled her with dread; it would spell her downfall.
Determined to hold onto her status as the Lane family heiress at all costs, Maya pressed on.
Upstairs, in a classroom, Mia halted her playing and admitted, “My memory is hazy, but I can recall just
these few notes.”
When Mia was adopted as a child, she had fallen seriously ill, and much of her recollection of her time
at the orphanage was blurred.
Yet, amidst the haze of her memories, this particular piece of music remained vividly etched in her
mind.
“It seems reminiscent of a children’s song. You performed it quite well, indicating a solid foundation.
“Now, what you need is practice. Select a piece to concentrate on, and should Anthony attempt to stir
up trouble, you can demonstrate your skills with that particular piece,” Drew advised.
“Alright, thank you, Ms. Kidman,” Mia replied gratefully.
After offering Mia a few instructions, Drew exited the room, leaving her to practice alone.
Apart from mastering this children’s song, Mia’s repertoire was limited to the pieces Claude had taught
her.
Additionally, Drew had provided her with a selection of pieces for further practice.
