Chapter 821 Nicholas’ Endeavors
‘Even if Kathleen has done something wrong, she’s already sentenced to imprisonment for punishment! Why is Tessa still not letting her off and resorting to such lengths?’
While the netizens were rebuking Tessa for crossing the line, Kathleen’s fans were more aggressive with their words due to their deep hatred for Tessa.
‘Tessa Reinhart, you b*tch! How could you do that to Kathleen? Go to hell!’
‘Why did you do that when Hathaway is your teacher? Does someone like you even have the rights to be a violinist?’
‘Tessa Reinhart, get out of the music biz and leave Vienna! We don’t welcome you here!’
The Internet went berserk because of the inundated comments.
Edward soon took notice of the situation on the net since he had been paying heed to Kathleen’s incident. Hastily, he reported it to Nicholas, “President Sawyer, things are going bad. There are articles about Miss Tessa leaving Hathaway Philharmonic and about Kathleen’s death. They even blame Miss Tessa for Kathleen’s incident! The Internet is flooded with negative news of Miss Tessa.”
Nicholas surfed the Internet to take a look upon hearing that. As one could easily expect, his face turned grim the moment he read the destructive comments, especially when some of them were cursing Tessa to death. The ire in him was flaring vigorously.
How dare they!
“Do whatever it takes to take down these articles. I don’t want Tessa to see any of these and I don’t wish to hear any of it spread to the country. Got it?” ordered Nicholas solemnly as he exuded a formidable aura around him.
Just how upset will she be if she reads those comments?
Edward dared not delay a single moment and left to fulfill his task in great haste. When afternoon came, he returned to inform Nicholas that it had been settled. In fact, that was the truth.
Currently, the trending taglines on social media were focusing on Kathleen’s funeral, which would be held soon. Netizens and her fans were mourning her death.
‘Rest in peace, Kathleen.’
However, Tessa had no clue about what had transpired; although she had gotten over the matter, it still affected her mood. As such, she did not have the energy to take notice of the rage on the net.
…
Next morning, Nicholas made a sudden announcement during breakfast. “I’ve asked Edward to book the plane tickets. We’ll go to the airport right after our breakfast.”
Tessa was stunned for a moment, but she kept quiet because she thought they were going to return to the country. Before they boarded the plane, she turned around to look at the city with heavy hearts. It was the place she lived for a few months; not only did it watch her grow from an unobtrusive nobody to a world famous violinist, it also bore every chapter of her progress in life.
It was not until she boarded the plane that she found out that Nicholas was not bringing her back to the country. They were heading to the city of love, Storybrooke, in Filisburg.
After taking some rest, he took Tessa to the local tourist attractions for a stroll—the Ixtal Tower, Palace of Anvil, Pixie Street, and the list went on.
To his dismay, Tessa did not seem to be interested throughout the whole journey, which perturbed him. He was worried that she would be distressed by the pent up feelings in her.
Later, when she had fallen asleep, he gave Edward a call to make some preparations.
…
The next day, Nicholas took Tessa to Barset Dom for a visit. As soon as they stepped into the church, he excused himself to answer a call. She did not mind it at all as she sat on the bench to wait for him.
At that moment, an old nun came up to her and piped up in a gentle voice, “You look sad. Is there something on your mind?”
Tessa raised her head to look at the nun, whom she felt had a charm prodding her to confide in. Finally, she poured out every emotion she had been suppressing this whole time. “Something happened to me recently. I know that it’s not my fault, but I just can’t shake off the strange feeling. I’m kinda stressed out by it.”
“Since it’s not your fault, why should you punish yourself because of someone else’s mistake?”
