Chapter 91
A figure walked amidst dazzling light, her face obscured by the backlight, yet her elegant posture was unmistakable. Her slender waist could barely be grasped, and her long hair fluttered gently.
The netizens were thrilled upon seeing this figure. Ash was a woman, not the beer-bellied, balding man they had imagined!
Matthew, too, realized that Ash was a woman. He had initially thought Ash was a middle-aged man, as speculated online, and had even planned. on asking Ash to be his godfather.
Unsure of Ashâs age, he now wanted to consider her a sisterâ¦
Matthew stood nervously, his gaze fixed in Ashâs direction.
Finally, the graceful figure emerged from the glittering starlight, bathed in the soft white light from behind.
The woman was stunningly beautiful, her delicate skin complemented by a red dress that made her resemble a blooming rose, dazzling and beyond everyone.
As the audience in the livestream saw her face, the chat went silent.
It was a deathly stillness.
It wasâ¦Ashley!
It took the online audience several dozen seconds to snap out of shock, their comments flooding the screen in a frenzy.
Meanwhile, Matthewâs eyes widened in disbelief upon seeing Ashleyâs face, his expression frozen like a fool in disbelief.
He couldnât believe it.
It was absolutely impossible!
Matthew clenched his fists tightly. His eyes fixated unwaveringly on Ashley, his entire being as tense as a fully drawn bowstring.
Jessica also looked at Ashley intently and didnât move a bit.
How could this beâ¦.
Jessica clenched her teeth, utterly unwilling to
believe what she was

Chapter 1 seeing.
The next second, Ashley took the microphone from the host. Her clear, attractive eyes gazed into the camera, and smiled politely. Her eyebrows and eyes were captivating, like a bold and beautiful rose.
âHello everyone, Iâm Ashley,â she said.
Pausing briefly, her melodic voice echoed through the microphone, reaching every listenerâs ears.
âIâm also Ashâ¦â
Matthew staggered several steps backward when her words ended, his b*dy trembling. His eyes, crimson with intensity, were fixed in Ashleyâs direction.
Ashley was Ashâ¦
Ash was the teacher he respected and grateful for, whom he regarded as a benefactor and akin to a second set of parents.
And yet, she was also his biological sister, whom he had insulted and wished dead!
At this moment, Bryce was also re-invited onto the stage.
Bryce had known for a long time that Ashley was Ash. Compared to the others, he appeared much more composed. Bryce smiled and said, âI mentioned earlier that Ash wrote two songs for me in 15 minutes. Thatâs true. I witnessed Ashley make them at that time.â
Ashley smiled charmingly.
âThe Landâ was the first song I wrote. I was inspired at the time and released it online after completing it, and I didnât expect it to be so well-received. Iâm truly honored.â
Bryce asked curiously, âWas âThe Landâ the first piece you ever wrote? It must have taken a long time, right?â
Ashley nodded. âIt did take a long time, about thirty minutes to finish.â
At that moment, viewers in the livestream were baffled.
[Thirty minutes? Thatâs what she considered a long time?]
[Oh my, now I get it. No wonder Ashleyâs performance of âThe Landâ on

that show was similar to Ashâs. Itâs her song, of course, it would be the same!]
[Wait, who was it that said Ashley canât compose?]
[Hahaha, it was Matthewâs fans! They even said that after Ash and Matthew recognized each other, Ashley should stop trying to cozy up to Matthew. It turns out Ashley is Ash herself!]
[Speaking of a real slap in the face, isnât it Matthew? He boasted that Ashley didnât understand the composition and wasnât qualified to judge his music. Haha, thinking back, itâs so embarrassing for him!]
[In that case, it was Ashley who rescued him in Matthewâs darkest days, granting him a second chance at life and honor.]
At this moment, all of Matthewâs fans were stunned and didnât know what to say. They had never imagined that Ashley, whom they had constantly scorned and belittled, was the revered Ash they had been so eager to fawn on.
On the stage, Matthew stared fixedly in Ashleyâs direction, standing motionless as if struck dumb by a heavy blow.
Ash was his faith, his light, the person he had devoted his life to repaying.
Yet, it was only today that he learned the truth.
The Ash he had worshipped, who had pulled him out of the mire, was his sister⦠The very person he had trampled upon, severed ties with, and wished had never been born.
No wonder Ashleyâs melody of âThe Landâ sounded so familiar, just like Ashâs.
He should have recognized it long agoâ¦
But he hadnât, even going as far as to mock Ashley for not being worthy to compare with Ash.
His past foolish actions now seemed like a dumbass!
Matthewâs heart was being tormented, on the verge of bursting with intense regret. Unable to hold back, he walked dazedly towards Ashley, murmuring, âAshâ¦â
