Chapter 879 It’s Thanks to That B*tch She’s Like This
“I got it.” Tessa nodded as the determination toward this challenge surged within her.
She would also like to find out how well she could do if she went all out after studying for so long.
Following that, Sofia gave Tessa a few more admonishes before letting the mother and son leave.
Outside, Nicholas had long been waiting by the street, and his model-looking appearance caught the attention of many passersby.
However, none dared to approach him due to the aloofness he exuded.
“Daddy!” Gregory waved his tiny hand merrily upon seeing his father.
Likewise, Tessa beamed when she saw the tall, handsome gentleman standing not far from her, and she couldn’t help quickening her pace while taking Gregory with her.
“How were things at work today?” she asked during their journey home.
“Pretty good.” Nicholas briefly told her about the situation in the company and changed the topic. “How was practice today? Are you tired?”
“No.” Tessa shook her head. Then, she remembered about the upcoming concert and thought she should share it with Nicholas. “Miss Sofia hopes that I can compose a piece to perform during the concert. I might not be able to spend a lot of time with you for a while.”
“No worries. What matters is that you’re by my side.” Nicholas held her hand, unbothered by it. However, he had his concerns. “Will you be able to handle the stress? I mean, you have practice during the day, and now you have to work on your piece after going home.”
Tessa shook her head and said with a smile, “Don’t worry. I know what I’m doing.”
Simultaneously, Susan found out about the Christmas concert during the team meeting.
“Although this concert is just between us, I hope everyone can treat it seriously. After all, this would be Group Six’s first performance ever since its formation.”
While Kellen relayed his expectations for the concert in front of everyone, Susan’s thoughts had already drifted far away.
She thought this was a good opportunity for her to show herself and let the whole orchestra see what she was made of during the upcoming concert.
Though the notion was good, she did not forget her biggest problem at the moment.
She kept Sofia’s remark toward her in mind, so she had been adjusting her performance style lately. However, the results were less than promising, and it troubled her to no end.
“Perhaps I should find an instructor,” Susan mused as her brows locked into a tight furrow. “Who should I look for, though?”
Now, she was just an average musician. With no connections, it would be nearly impossible for her to ask a notable instructor to teach her or even receive their help.
Also, she now realized the advantages of being under Hathaway’s wings.
Susan was given ample opportunities due to the woman’s connections, and she never had to worry about something like this.
Should I return to Hathaway?
Though it was inchoate, she overturned the thought at once.
Her new identity aside, the possibility of seeing Hathaway already posed itself to be a problem. More importantly, she didn’t want that woman to know she was still alive.
That woman is so partial toward Tessa; if she finds out that I’m still alive, the other woman will learn about it too. How will I carry out my vengeance by then?!
That night, Rorion noticed Susan was in a foul mood as soon as she returned home.
“What’s wrong, sugar? Why do you look so down? Has someone in the orchestra bullied you?”
“It’s not that. I’m troubled by something else.” Susan shook her head and slumped onto the couch irritably.
Seeing so, the man instantly went up to her. “What’s troubling you? Why don’t you tell me? Maybe I can help.”
“I’m just an average musician now. I can’t even get a good instructor without any connections.”
Susan’s tone grew exasperated at the mention of the topic, and she loathed Tessa even more so.
It was all thanks to that b*tch that she ended up in this situation.
