Chapter 538
"Why don't we talk tomorrow? It's getting late there." Nicholas checked the time on his phone, so
he knew that it was past midnight in Vienna. He didn't want Tessa to be loo tired the next day.
Tessa couldn’t argue against his words, so she had no choice but to agree with him.
However, when she lay alone on the large and empty bed, she didn’t feel sleepy at all. On the
contrary, her surroundings were silent, making her feel incredibly lonely. "Now that I'm staying
alone in this villa without you and Gregory around, the whole place feels so empty. I'm not used
to it."
Nicholas wasn't used to her absence either. Things had been going too well previously, and he
was used to having her by his side. Now, he didn't know how to feel about going back to sleeping
on his own. However, he didn't reveal this to Tessa as he didn't want to make her feel any
sadder. "Don't worry. I'm here now, aren't I?" He comforted her through the call.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"But I miss you guys so much. It's only the first day, and I already miss you guys so badly. What
am I supposed to do for the rest of my time here?" she whined. Nicholas could feel his heart
melting into a puddle of water when he saw the longing gaze in the girl’s eyes.
"I’ll find some time to visit you in a few days," he offered.
"Forget it. I don't want you to overwork yourself." She shook her head and rejected his idea.
Relationships were a two-way thing—Nicholas cared about her, and she cared just as much about him.
He simply chuckled without continuing this topic after that. Instead, he tried to coax Tessa to go to
sleep.
Perhaps Nicholas' voice has some magic to it as Tessa soon felt her eyelids turning heavy after a
while. When he saw the sweet, innocent look on her face as she slept, he couldn't help but beam as he
continued staring at her. "Goodnight, my girl," he whispered before ending the call with a longing
expression on his face.
Throughout the next few days, Tessa practiced, practiced, and practiced. However, she no longer
spoke to Kathleen after her encounter on the first day. One of the reasons was that Kathleen was also
busy with her practices. Both of them didn’t mess with one another, but everyone in the orchestra could
still sense a shift in their dynamics.
One day, while they were all on break, Kathleen sat alone on one of the benches while a few orchestra
members chit-chatted beside her. Kathleen knew that
most of the members had a wall up against her after what happened with Tessa previously.
So, she held her hands up and clapped a few times to attract everyone's attention. "Let's all go for
drinks tonight. It's all on me! We have been working too hard; it’s time to relax." In the past, all the
members would immediately cheer once they heard her words.
However, all of them rejected her offer now. "I'm sorry. I have work tonight," someone said.
"My boyfriend asked me to go home and spend time with him," another one said.
"I promised my dog that I'd walk it around tonight." Kathleen could barely keep the smile on her face
when she heard everyone's half-hearted excuses.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFortunately, she managed to maintain a neutral expression as she spoke in a nonchalant tone.
"Next time, then."
The members nodded before they began chatting among themselves once more. Kathleen
returned to her seat and felt her heart sinking as she listened to the loud noises around her.
Although she hadn't heard anyone talking behind her back in the past few days, she could still
sense that the members' attitude toward her had changed after the incident. They no longer
respected or feared her like they used to.
This was no big deal—what troubled her the most was that the members were actually starting to
get closer to Tessa. "Let's have dinner tonight, Tessa. Then, we can go shopping to relax a little,"
one of the members suggested.
"Sure." She agreed with a smile. She was the only one in the villa, so she didn't want to head
home too early. However, before she and the other members could head off, she received a call
from Louis. "Your violin is fixed. You can come and collect it."
