Chapter 49
Sophia Laurent, the long-lost biological daughter of the Lowell family, had been trending frequently lately. Her outrageous behavior sparked heated discussions across social media, bringing unprecedented attention to the Lowell siblings.
Nearly every other live comment mentioned Sophia's name.
"Nathan and Emily are absolutely stunning! No surprise they're siblings!"
"What does Sophia Laurent even look like? There's only a blurry side profile online. Is she too ugly to show her face?"
"Every Lowell is exceptional. How did they end up with a black sheep like Sophia?"
"Is she still pursuing that lawsuit against Mrs. Lowell? With all this backlash, she must have dropped it by now."
"Honestly, since it's the Lowell family's money, she shouldn't have sued in the first place..."
Lucas Sheridan frowned at the barrage of comments scrolling across his screen.
This Sophia Laurent... was she the legendary Composer T?
Composer T turned out to be a Lowell?
A derisive smirk curled his lips.
From what he knew, Composer T's single commission rate had reached five million three years ago. What was nine hundred thousand to someone like that?
Things just got more interesting.
On the show's set, the host enthusiastically introduced the five judges.
The first four were veteran music producers from previous seasons, receiving lukewarm responses.
"Ms. Xu Hong is back! I love her songs!"
"Gezale's grassland-style music is so unique..."
"Where's Composer T? When do they appear? I can't wait!"
"I only came for Composer T. Don't care about the other judges..."
As the anticipation peaked, the host suddenly raised her voice.
"Now, let's welcome our final judge—Ms. Sophia Laurent!"
The female host added, "You may not recognize the name Sophia Laurent, but her other identity is legendary—the music industry's acknowledged genius composer, Composer T!"
Thunderous applause erupted.
Every eye in the studio locked onto center stage.
The live stream comments froze momentarily.
The entire audience held their breath, awaiting the mysterious figure's appearance.
As music swelled, a slender figure stepped forward.
Under the spotlight, the young woman shimmered in a flowing lake-blue gown, her porcelain skin glowing, waist cinched delicately. Chestnut hair cascaded over her shoulders, dark phoenix eyes striking—a vision of breathtaking beauty.
The studio fell into stunned silence.
Several seconds passed before comments exploded.
"This... this is Composer T?"
"She's gorgeous! And so young?"
"Are we sure the producers didn't make a mistake? With looks like this, she could debut as an idol!"
At center stage, the young woman gracefully lifted her microphone.
"Hello everyone, I'm Sophia Laurent."
A pause, then her lips curved slightly.
"Also known as the composer you call T."
The room erupted in gasps.
"Did I hear that right? She's really Composer T?"
"She looks barely twenty! Composer T is this young?"
"If Composer T became famous five years ago, that means she started composing as a teenager?"
"My self-esteem just shattered. I'm clearly just taking up space in this world..."
"Wait—what did she say her name was? So...phia Laurent?"
