Chapter 741
“Alright, I’ll let Mira know p>
Eleanor picked up the phone p>
When Mira got home from school that afternoon, her grandmother was already back.
Seeing the older woman looking well enough, she asked, “Grandma, how did things go over there today p>
Eleanor didn’t hold back. “Sera and Lawrence went there to stir up trouble p>
At this point, Mira felt absolutely nothing.
“There’s one more thing I want to talk to you about,” Eleanor said.
“Go ahead p>
“Well… I told your mother she could come visit me when you aren’t home p>
After saying this, Eleanor looked at Mira with a hopeful gaze.
She looked almost sheepish, like a child caught making a mistake.
“I just figured she’s so easily swayed. If we don’t keep her close, those awful people
will completely control her, and that would only cause endless trouble for you p>
“It’s fine, Grandma. What’s done is done. Just make sure she doesn’t come around when I’m here p>
Lacey was Eleanor’s daughter, after all. Since Mira had invited her grandmother to live with her, she had to accept certain compromises.
But that was where she drew the line. Mira would never acknowledge Lacey as her mother again in this lifetime.
Hearing Mira’s agreement, Eleanor beamed. “I’m so glad you’re okay with it p>
Friday afternoon brought another performing arts club meeting.
The moment Mira stepped into the club room, a shower of colorful flower petals fluttered down toward her With her martial arts reflexes toned over years, her first instinct was to assume they were darts.
She dodged slightly, hand raised to deflect the incoming projectiles, before realizing they were just weightless petals. It was a surprise welcome party from the members.
“We’re all classmates, and this isn’t my first time here,” Mira said. “There’s no need for such a grand entrance p>
“No, you deserve it,” Wesley Lane replied. “With your net worth and status, the fact that you’re willing to hang out with a bunch of unestablished students is a huge honor for us p>
“Don’t make it weird. We’re just classmates, same as always. Let’s not make a big deal out of this p>
“We’ve already uploaded a few performances using our club account,” Nadia Monroe said with a bright smile. “Did you see them p>
“I did. Your contemporary dance was fantastic, and the stand-up routine you guys put together was hilarious p>
“We’ve actually gained a decent following. Look, we just hit thirty thousand followers p>
“With that kind of audience, you could already start live-streaming products,” Mira noted. “Keep pushing. Once you hit a hundred thousand, you can start taking on brand deals p>
Hearing that fueled the entire room with newfound motivation.
“However, I think producing a Micro-Series would be the best way to draw in subscribers,” Mira continued. “With everyone’s talent and looks plus the prestige of Aethelgard University, it’ll be much easier to build a fanbase than it is for the average creator. we get a script with real viral potential, the results will be incredible p>
She was helping her classmates, but she was also quietly laying the groundwork for her own company.
Solflare’s Short-Video Platform was still in its infancy. The market was unfamiliar with the format, and the platform needed a wave of trailblazers.
If this small club found success, countless others would follow their lead, eventually normalizing the platform’s features for the general public.
“That’s exactly what we thought too!” Wesley said, his face lighting up. He eagerly shoved a script into Mira’s hands. “Look, we rushed to finish the first draft. Tell us what you think p>
“Already? It’s only been three weeks,” Mira said, raising an eyebrow. “This first series is your flagship project. Don’t cut corners p>
“We didn’t, I promise!” Wesley insisted. “Honestly, it was a massive group effort. It might have only
taken three weeks, but we spent net
every single afternoon huddled together tearing apart the plot points Luid the actual typing, but we all wrote it p>
