Chapter 554 “I hope your words will come true!” Tessa’s grin widened when she saw Mona cheering for her.

The two girls chatted for a while more before Mona headed off for practice. That night. Tessa arrived

home a little later than usual because she slightly extended her training hours, so it was nearly 9.00PM

by the time she arrived home and freshened up.

She had just finished showering when Nicholas video-called her. His gaze darkened when he saw the

girl whose cheeks were still flushed from the warm bath she had taken. At that moment, he truly wished

he had told her to stay in the country with him back then. He missed her so badly that he could feel it in

his bones.

However, he tried his best to suppress the emotions he felt as he addressed her in a somewhat husky

voice. “Why are you home so late today?”

“I extended my practice hours, so I’ll probably be home at this hour from now on.” Tessa didn’t realize the

odd look on the man’s face and she began blabbering about her current situation. “I’m afraid I won’t have

much time to chat with you in the upcoming weeks,” she told him.

“It’s fine. You can just call me when you’re free or tired of practicing. Call me if you feel like you need to

relax for a little.” Nicholas was extremely understanding and supportive of her as he knew that she was

preparing for the competition.

Furthermore, even if she didn’t have the time to contact him, at least he had a bodyguard keeping an eye

over her. The bodyguard could report about her condition anytime he wanted to check up on her, but it

was obvious that she wasn’t aware of the arrangement he had made.

A sweet smile formed on her face when she saw how understanding Nicholas was. “We may spend a

little less time together during this period, but I want you to know that I’m going to miss you a lot,” she

murmured softly and gently.

“I’m going to miss you too,” he said while giving her a loving gaze. Although they were separated by their

phone screens, they could still feel the love from one another right then.

For the next few days, Tessa went through intensive practices every day. She even changed her

performance schedule at the restaurant to only perform once every two days. Wilbur was aware that

Tessa was competing for the principal violinist role in Hathaway’s new orchestra group, so he tried his

best to accommodate her timing. She was extremely thankful for Wilbur’s kind gestures, and she told

herself that she would have to repay him someday.

Tessa was always the last to leave practice during that period of time. As a result, she lost a lot of weight

as her schedule was jam packed.

One afternoon, Mona dropped by to visit Tessa after her meal and found Tessa practicing in the studio.

“Aren’t you working yourself a little too hard, Tessa?” Mona sighed as she walked over to check on the

girl. “Have you had your lunch?”

“I’m about to have it soon,” Tessa replied with a smile.

Mona made a playful comment when she saw how skinny Tessa’s face had become. Treel ashamed of

myself whenever I see how hard you’re working.”

“I don’t have a choice. I’ve given up on too many things for the sake of my dreams. I really want to

achieve something as soon as possible.” Tessa lowered her gaze to have her thick lashes concealing the

emotions in her eyes. I left my brother, and I gave up on all the time I could have spent with Nicholas just

for the sake of my dreams. I’ve already given up so much-how could I not work hard now? I have to

achieve something to feel proud of myself, right?

Mona could tell that there had to be some backstory in Tessa’s life when she heard the rather blue tone

in Tessa’s voice.

“Still, you must take care of your health even when working hard. The weather has been turning cold, so

it’s really easy to fall sick during this period,” Mona reminded her kindly.

“I’ll take good care of myself. Don’t worry about me.” Tessa smiled in response as she could tell that

Mona genuinely cared for her.

On the other hand, Nicholas had already gone for three days without speaking to Tessa. By the third

night, he decided to video-call her as he missed her too much. “Good morning, Nicholas.” Tessa greeted

him through the video call.

However, he immediately noticed the drained look on Tessa’s face. They had only chatted for a while

before she fell asleep with the phone still in her hands; his gaze landed on the girl’s evidently skinnier

face as he frowned while thinking about something.
