Chapter 165
The grand All-Star Concert held by Eirene Music Academy came to a successful close. Various videos and discussions about the performances that day circulated online. The hottest topic, of course, was why Soul had appeared onstage with a mask.
Though everyone knew who he was, they wondered whether he hadn't had the nerve to show his face because he was ugly. However, those who had seen Soul in person quickly denied this.
There wasn't just one witness, after all. Several people had seen him. They described in detail how tall and handsome Jack was, especially how charming his eyes had been. In short, Soul's face wasn't one that would disappoint!
As for the reason he'd worn a mask onstage... The only explanation was that he'd done it on purpose to ensure people would continue talking about him. People would only be more interested in him if they didn't know what he looked like. Sure enough, the online discussion about him proved this.
More rumors about Soul started to surface. It was said that he was actually a top student at Alnewgo University. The news spread with such detail that there was even a video of Felix driving Jack back to campus as proof.
This was enough to cause a stir. The news spread like wildfire throughout Alnewgo University, making even the dean of the music faculty start to secretly check whether there was such a hidden expert in the academy.
If it was true, the music faculty would undoubtedly become Alnewgo University's top faculty, especially since it already had Luca as one of its students—he'd already gained fame, after all. This meant the faculty would have the capability to go head-to-head with Eirene Music Academy, perhaps even overtaking it!
Bella read the news while seated in her dorm. She muttered, "I've been seeing news of this all day. Is this mysterious Soul really one of our faculty's students?"
Gigi nodded. "I think it's possible. Who could it be, though?"
Luna was putting on makeup. She asked cheerily, "Do you think it could be Flynn Osborne? He's a pretty good singer."
Remy instantly protested, "That's impossible! I don't like his singing, and his voice doesn't have the sort of magnetism that Soul's does."
Gigi agreed, "It can't be Flynn. He would've announced his identity to the world long ago if he really were Soul."
Luna and Bella nodded, agreeing that Soul's ability to remain humble and discreet after attaining success was admirable. On the contrary, Flynn was the type to spread the word about him being at the top of his class as a child. There was no way he'd be able to maintain a low profile.
The female students in another dormitory were also talking about Soul. Queenie was excitedly sharing her experience of watching the concert live and seeing the celebrities in person. She also showed her dormmates the autographs she'd gotten.
Jenna, Anya, Jessica, and Miranda listened with interest, looking envious. Amelia was the only one who sat quietly in her seat. She didn't say a word. Discover more novels at find✦novel.net
"Why haven't you said anything, Amelia? Didn't you go to the concert with Alex yesterday?"
Amelia forced a smile. "Yeah, I did. I just feel a little ill now."
"Oh, okay." Queenie nodded. Then, something occurred to her. "Wait, I remember hearing about Alex getting into a fight with someone yesterday. What's up with that?"
Rumor had it the matter had gotten quite serious-Alex had even ended up in the hospital. However, Queenie didn't know the details because Amelia hadn't gone into them.
