This news came as a pleasant surprise to Tessa. "Thank you, Mr. Louis. I'll come over to get it

now." After she ended the call, she looked at her colleagues. Tin sorry. I might not be able to join

you guys for dinner." When her colleagues saw the wide grin on her face, they couldn't help but

tease her.

"Why do you look so happy? Is your boyfriend coming?" someone asked.

"We wouldn't mind if you brought him out with us," another one suggested.

"Your boyfriend is handsome and rich—it’d be no trouble to have him around!" Tessa chuckled at

all of their comments. "That's not it. I just have to pick up the violin that I sent to be fixed a while

ago," she explained. Her colleagues no longer teased her after that. They all knew the violin in

question was the one her boyfriend had gifted her, so they quickly urged her to collect it. "Well,

you should hurry up and get it back."

By the time Tessa rushed over to Louis's place, he was already waiting in the hall. However, another

man was in the lobby with him—a young, foreign man dressed in a gunmetal grey suit. The young man

had extremely sharp features—his eyes, in particular, had their corners pointed slightly upward and

pupils that seemed to twinkle as he looked around. In addition, the wild look and somewhat messy

brown hair made him seem both delicate and elegant.

If one did not take a good look at him, one might assume that the man was actually a girl dressed up as

a boy. He's even more good-looking than some girls, Tessa thought to herself. Soon enough, she

returned to her senses before greeting them. "Mr. Louis," she spoke before nodding to the other man.

The man nodded before stealing a few glances in Tessa's direction.

Tessa was dressed in a knitted sweater and jeans as it was a rainy day. She had a thin layer of makeup

on her petite face, and she pulled up her long, black hair into a simple and youthful ponytail. All she did

was stand tall in the middle of the hall, yet she seemed to exude an aura that made the atmosphere

around her calm and soothing.

Tessa was already talking to Louis by the time the foreign male returned to his senses. Louis pointed at

the violin casing on the table. "It's in there. You should try it out," he suggested. She nodded before

opening the case. The poor violin that only had a single G string attached to it al one point now looked

better than it ever did.

The violin seemed to glow under the light, and its strings looked fresh and new. The whole violin was

gorgeous. Tessa slowly reached out for the violin before carefully lifting it out of its casing and placing it

below her chin. She wanted to test its sound. Soon, a light but piercing sound filled the air moments

later, and a look of pure shock formed in her eyes after she played a few notes. She couldn't help but

play a slightly longer melody after that. Since Tessa had perfect pitch, she could always notice even the

tiniest changes in the instrument’s sound quality.

However, this violin that he had just fixed... It sounded exactly like it did before it was ruined. After

playing the melody, Tessa had to calm herself down for a moment before speaking. "How did you do it,

Mr. Louis? How does this violin sound exactly the same as before?"

Every violin made its own unique sound—once a violin was spoiled, its sound would certainly change

after one fixed it. So, it was tough for one to be able to return a violin to its exact original sound. But

Louis somehow managed to do it.

Louis felt proud of himself when he noticed the look on Tessa's face. "What do you think, Miss

Reinhart? Are you happy with it?"

"Yes! I’m very, very happy!" Tessa nodded her head excitedly. "I thought the sound of the

instrument would change after 1 sent it to be fixed, but I hadn't expected you to be able to

surprise me like this. You're so good! No wonder you're so widely recognized as a master." Her

eyes were filled with gratitude as she spoke.

"What's the big deal? As I said, turning the violin back to its original state is possible as long as

we have the materials." Even though Louis tried to make it sound easy, the proud look on his

face gave him away. So, she could only express her genuine gratitude to him once more.

Right then, the foreign, young man who had remained silent let out a soft cough and fixed his

gaze on Louis. It was clear that Louis seemed rather conflicted for a moment, but he quickly

covered this up with a cough. "Well, this was possible mainly because of my nephew, Angus. If

there’s anyone you should be thanking, it’s him."
