In the Willow Mental Wellness facility, Hanae felt like her whole world was crashing down. She had not given up on beingfortable with the Yamazaki family in the future. She was sure that her auntie would take her back after she retreated for a while and showed some remorse.
She had epted to go to the mental institute because Chiharu and her mother had told her that it would make her a more sympathetic character.
Although she was already an adult at neen, it was not umon for people her age to crumble under stress.
With these thoughts in mind, she did not mind living in the crazy house for a few days or weeks. Furthermore, the ce she had been allocated was reserved for the rich and famous. She was simply taking a vacation with the best treatment.
However, even though she wasfortable, she could not deal with the fact that Akira was having a good time. She could not ept it.
She wanted her to experience the same humiliation she had on that day when the life she had carefully curated fell apart. That girl acted like an innocent flower, but she was a demon. She had deeper plots than anyone could imagine.
Luckily, Hanae had a lot of friends among the Mountain Ridge upper-ss to keep an eye on Akira.
When her friends called her and told her about Akira attending the flower viewing party, she was furious. She was always the one with the Yamazaki family, and she performed the piano on every asion.
Her talent was obvious, so she was quite popr during the past three years. In fact, she had a chance to be a disciple of a renowned master as long as she performed well in theingpetition. After that, her life would be easier.
Thinking about her superiority when it came to ssical music, she hinted to her friends to sign up Akira for the performance at the Celestial Blossom Garden. She thought it would be humiliating for that country bumpkin to stand like a stupid rock or y something elementary.
Now, she realised how stupid she was.
She had allowed Akira to shine. The stupid girl had even gotten a standing ovation from the crowd of snobbish people. She had never gotten one. How could things turn out like this?
She was the prodigy. She was the one who had grown up with the Yamazaki family. Why was she confined in a mental institute while Akira was shining like a star?
She did not hear what her friends said as their words were covered by the thunderous apuse. She lifted her phone and threw it against the wall. The device broke apart, but it did not satisfy her. She turned to her dining space beside her bed and swept off the uneaten dinner to the floor.
The deafening sound of breaking tes startled and alerted the orderlies patrolling the halls of the facility.
They rushed in and found the irate young woman who seemed intent on destroying the room.
"What kind of slob are you serving me?" Hanae med the food after being discovered.
However, the orderlies did not believe her. One of them directly paged a doctor after seeing the crazydy and the mess.
Even though the Willow Mental Wellness institute was a retreat centre for the rich and famous, they were a certified mental hospital after all. Furthermore, some of the said rich and famous were quite mentally unsound when they came in.
Therefore, the scene made by Hanae was not as unusual as it seemed.
A doctor in a simple white coat came in with two nurses behind him. With a few instructions, Hanae received a strong dose of a sedative. As she lost consciousness, she realised she had f*cked up.
In the pavilion at the Celestial Blossom Garden, the air was electric as Akira stepped down from the stage. The audience looked at her with awe, as if she was an angel descended on earth.
More than a few men were already plotting on how to approach the youngdy.
These men had looked down on Akira before the performance as they listened to the stories about the uncultured daughter of the Yamazaki family who had driven her cousin crazy. Even though she was pretty, she was an embarrassment.
Moreover, the younger ones were warned by their parents against associating with Akira. While she was a member of the prestigious Yamazaki family, she did not have any power. It was better to be linked to the maternal niece of the family, Hanae.
However, after seeing the adorable youngdy and her fierce musical presentation, their hearts burned with inexplicable heat.
If they had known that she was that amazing, they would have made their move earlier during the pic. If they had, they would not have to face so many rivals.
Within three minutes, Akira became the most eligible youngdy in Mountain Ridge.
The experts watching the livestream could also not sit still as they looked at the pretty littledy stepping down from the stage. Their hearts were itching, and they were hoping to fly directly to Mountain Ridge and abduct her.
Though she was not very young, she was a prime candidate as a disciple for musical schrs. The talent agency moguls were even more anxious because it was rare to find a youngdy who was strong in both talent and appearance.
Moreover, if they could sign her up, they would have the support of the Yamazaki family. Most of these affluent families did not mind their daughters joining the entertainment industry as long as it was nothing extreme.
It was beneficial to have a daughter with a lot of fans because it meant more sess for their businesses. Also, some sort of career was crucial for getting a good marriage. Besides, men in the upper ss would prefer a popr girl over a dull one.
Unfortunately, none of these experts considered if they could sign up a treasure like Akira.
Since she was so aplished, she would not becking in masters or opportunities for fame if she wanted.
Akira did not care about all these things. She returned to her seat calmly and gave the violin to Hina to put away. She listened to the closing words by the satisfied Cherry Blossom without a change in expression.
It was almost as if she did not notice the ring eyes.
When the event closed, some people wanted to step forward to talk to Akira. However, it was difficult to do so with her parents and brother as well as an unknown beautifuldy surrounding like bodyguards.
Akira saw Makiko and walked to her.
