“Ms. Nicholls doesn’t even know this person’s real name,” the girl went on, “just that she’s from Cloudville and that she’s a girl.”

She clearly knew more than everyone else, but the info she gave was so little that it felt impossible to actually track the person down.

People started talking in low voices, following the tiny clue. However, Erin, who had been quiet the whole time, kept her eyes on the girl, her expression thoughtful.

Out of nowhere, Erin asked, “Where’d you hear all this?”

Her question seemed to jolt the others, who all turned to the girl and echoed, “Yeah, how do you know?”

The girl blinked, looking completely sincere. “Ms. Nicholls’s niece told me herself. And seriously, why would I lie? What would I even get out of it?”

That made sense, but people still wondered. “Then why tell us?”

“Because I’m curious, duh,” the girl said. “There are so many of you here–and you’re all women–so I thought maybe ‘T‘ could be one of you.

“And hey, if I help find her, maybe I’ll get to meet Ms. Nicholls too!”

Everyone rolled their

eyes.

Who would say something like that out loud? Whose daughter is this?

Was she not embarrassed?

Yet, no one called her out, because honestly, if they were in her shoes, they would be thinking the same thing.

Who in this industry would not want to get close to Jane?

Erin stayed quiet, but in her mind, she was thinking the same thing… plus a little more,

Someone Jane personally praised? That person’s starting line was already way ahead of most people in the field. And yet Jane had never met her, so she did not even know their name.

Erin smiled, like she was a little embarrassed. “Just a guess. I don’t like showing my face when I post videos either.”

“You post videos too?” the girl asked, genuinely surprised. “What kind?”

“I like painting,” Erin said honestly. “Sometimes, if I’m in the mood, I post my work online.”

She had never actually seen T’s account, but if Jane liked her, it had to be because of her art. So, keeping things vague was perfect.

Sure enough, someone nearby blurted, “Wait, you’re not T, are you?”

A few people who knew Erin looked over, and one said, “Erin, I heard my friend say you started doing online stuff after graduation. This could be it.”

“Totally! Wow, Erin, you’ve barely graduated, and you’ve already caught Ms. Nicholls’s attention with just a random online account? That’s amazing.”

“I’ve always thought Erin had serious talent,” someone gushed. “Remember that graduation piece she painted? The school’s art gallery snatched it up before the ceremony even happened.”

“Yeah, she never placed lower than third in every competition she entered back in school. With talent like that, no wonder Ms. Nicholls noticed her.”

The compliments poured in, and the small circle around Erin tightened even more.

Erin gave an embarrassed smile. “Oh, come on, it’s nothing. I just paint for fun.

“I’ve always admired Ms. Nicholls. If she really likes my work, that’s an honor for me.

“I only started doing social media as a hobby. I never even showed my face… didn’t think people would figure me out like this.”

“Gosh, you are making me blush”

She never once outright said she was “T,” but every word she dropped made it sound exactly

like that was the case.

The group grew even more excited, each of them thinking they might get a chance to meet Jane through Erin. In the shuffle, the girl who had originally brought up “T” got pushed to the

edge of the crowd.

Not that she seemed to mind. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at Erin.

She could not believe her luck. She had actually found the person Jane was looking for!

She had to tell her aunt right away.

Meanwhile, Erin stayed in the middle of the attention, basking in it. She might not have been the actual guest of honor tonight, but she was still the one everyone was fawning over.

On the outside, she stayed humble, acting all shy under the praise. Yet, that smug satisfaction in her eyes was impossible to miss.

Technically, she was not lying. She was doing social media, and she posted her paintings online without showing her face.

Yet, that was all part of the brand she’d been building–dripping hints of both artistic talent and wealthy upbringing early on, then revealing her face later, topping it off with a few carefully crafted hashtags, and boom, instant buzz.
