Chapter 768 Harboring Kathleen?
“It’s also possible that it’s not aimed at Tessa. After all, so many of us are here at the rehearsal. If Tessa’s the real target, how could they be sure where she would stand?”
At that, some began echoing.
“Yeah, I think it’s just a coincidence.”
“Besides, it’s nearly every day that we have harmless conflicts between members, but everyone still gets along pretty well. Imagine how big of a grudge that person is holding to be able to do something like this.”
Having said that, many still thought it was a conspiracy.
After all, incidents worse than this had happened within their orchestra.
At that, many recollected how Kathleen had once hired a mercenary to terrorize Tessa.
They believed if this was indeed aimed at Tessa, then Kathleen would be high on the list of suspects. Many looked toward Kathleen with doubt.
In particular, Mona had a gut feeling that the woman definitely had something to do with this.
However, she didn’t have evidence to question Kathleen.
Meanwhile, the latter turned grim upon sensing their suspicious gazes and questioned them knowingly, “What are you all looking at me for? You guys can’t possibly think that I’ve intentionally harmed Tessa, right? What do you take me for, an idiot?”
For a moment, quite a few of them were successfully intimidated.
Indeed, Kathleen shouldn’t be stupid enough to harm Tessa in front of everyone, for the truth would surface as soon as it was investigated.
In the end, the crowd said nothing anymore, and the incident reached a tentative conclusion.
After taking a suspicious glance at her daughter, Hathaway turned to the managing director. “I hope you can get to the bottom of this as soon as possible and give my orchestra and me a definitive answer.”
“Of course, of course,” the managing director hurriedly answered.
Seeing so, Hathaway left him be and turned to her orchestra members, dismissing them.
Sometime later, she headed to the hospital to visit Tessa after making some arrangements.
Meanwhile, Mona was already in the ward, trying to comfort the dejected-looking Tessa. “Since the doctor said President Sawyer has only suffered minor injuries, try not to get too upset. Don’t forget that you have a baby in your belly.”
However, Tessa was too dejected to even listen, her eyes red-rimmed.
Meanwhile, Gregory and their butler tried to cheer Tessa up upon seeing so.
“Mommy, please don’t be sad. Daddy will be sad too if he sees you like this when he wakes up.”
“Young Master’s right, Miss Tessa. Master Nicholas will worry if he sees you like this.”
Tessa didn’t want to be like this either, but her mind was in chaos when Nicholas wouldn’t wake up.
Just then, Hathaway came in after knocking on the door.
“Miss Hathaway.”
“Madam Hathaway.”
Mona and Gregory greeted Hathaway in unison, and the butler followed suit.
“Miss Hathaway, what brings you here?” Tessa barely pulled herself together when she saw that Hathaway had come.
“I’ve come to see how your husband is doing.”
“He has a minor hairline fracture, and he’ll have to be hospitalized for a few days. Other than that, he’s okay,” Tessa answered briefly.
Hathaway was relieved after hearing so. “That’s good.”
Tessa nodded at a barely noticeable degree in response. Likewise, she was glad that his injuries were minor.
Following that, she asked Hathaway about the accident, “Miss Hathaway, what was up with the spotlight?”
“We suspect it was due to a stagehand’s carelessness. I’ve already had someone dig into it covertly. I’m sure we’ll know the answer soon,” Hathaway relayed what she had learned.
Meanwhile, Mona looked toward Hathaway with doubt after hearing her words.
Someone had clearly cut the wires. Why would Miss Hathaway hide this fact from Tessa? Is she possibly trying to harbor Kathleen?
Though Mona didn’t have evidence to prove it had something to do with Kathleen, she was already certain the woman was behind it.
After all, only Kathleen wished to see something horrible happen to Tessa.
Furthermore, that woman had a history of harming Tessa.
Despite thinking so, she didn’t say anything about it. Instead, she echoed Hathaway’s words and said, “Miss Hathaway, we have to get to the bottom of this and not let the culprit escape. Fortunately, Tessa’s fine, or something worse could’ve happened to her and her baby.”
