Chapter 849 Put the Past Behind You

Other members of the orchestra also noticed Tessa, and they began to whisper among themselves.

“Isn’t that Tessa?”

“Why is she here? And those sitting beside her, they look so familiar.”

“How could this woman have the cheek to show up in Vienna?!”

“Oh, my God! The one sitting next to Tessa is Miss Sofia! There’s also Mr. Simon, the famous composer…” someone exclaimed in surprise as they recognized Sofia and the others.

Because of these voices, Hathaway noticed Tessa and was startled for a moment. When her eyes fell upon the people around Tessa, she looked even more surprised. Why is Tessa with these seniors? Although she was puzzled, she went over and greeted the seniors out of courtesy, saying, “It’s been a while, Miss Sofia and Mr. Simon…”

“It’s been a while indeed, Hathaway,” the big names replied one after another.

Tessa also stood up politely and said respectfully, “Good evening, Miss Hathaway.”

Hathaway was stunned for a moment, as though she never thought Tessa would still call her ‘Miss Hathaway.’ After coming to her senses, she looked at Tessa with a complicated look in her eyes. Still, she nodded, asking, “What brings you here as well?”

“I…” Tessa hesitated. In the end, however, she explained honestly, “I just got myself a new mentor, so I came with her today for dinner.”

It was impossible to say that Hathaway wasn’t upset when she heard this. However, there were some things that couldn’t go back to the way they had been before.

On the other hand, the other members of the orchestra were indignant when they heard Tessa’s words.

“What an ingrate she is! To think that she’s found herself another mentor so quickly.”

“I’d say Miss Hathaway shouldn’t have accepted this ingrate at the time. If it weren’t for her, Kathleen wouldn’t have died, and our orchestra wouldn’t have gotten into its current situation.”

“That’s enough, you guys! What happened to Kathleen has nothing to do with Tessa at all.” Mona couldn’t help but speak for her close friend.

Hathaway was unaware of the argument over here. After collecting herself, she asked in a tone of concern, “May I know who your mentor is?”

Just then, Sofia replied impassively, “Tessa is now my apprentice. I brought her here today to introduce her to my friends.”

The instant she said so, Hathaway was very surprised. Tessa actually became Sofia’s student!

When the other members of Hathaway Philharmonic heard this, they were dumbstruck, especially Cindy, who stared at Tessa with her eyes full of jealousy and hostility. To think that this ingrate became the apprentice of this big shot! What qualifies her to do so?

Of course, Tessa noticed her venomous gaze, but she ignored it.

This was because Hathaway spoke to her at this very moment. “Miss Sofia is one of the leading authorities in the field of music. There are many advantages for you to learn from her, so I hope that you’ll have a bright future ahead of you,” she said, sincerely giving Tessa her best wishes. Actually, she felt guilty after severing all ties with Tessa. She knew that Tessa was innocent, but she really couldn’t get over it.

Tessa also noticed Hathaway’s emotions. She replied impassively, “Thank you. Please take care of yourself, too.”

Hathaway left soon after the exchange of pleasantries.

Tessa got more or less emotional as she sat back in her seat.

Upon noticing that, Sofia patted her on the shoulder and comforted her, saying, “What you should be doing right now is to put the past behind you and look forward to the future. As for Kathleen, I’ve met her before. She was arrogant, headstrong, and selfish.” She paused for a moment. Then, she continued earnestly, “I’ve learned about the inside story. Her death has nothing to do with you, so you don’t have to feel guilty.”

Tessa was surprised; she didn’t expect Sofia to have learned about this long ago.

At this moment, the others also chimed in and advised her, staying, “We’ve heard about what happened to Kathleen. This has nothing to do with you. Just pull yourself together and learn from your mentor for now so that you can give a slap in the face with your achievements to those who look down on you.”

Kathleen’s death had provoked much discussion in Vienna back then.
