Chapter 558
"I wouldn't want to have a meal with you during this period. I am afraid of being misunderstood—others
might say that I bribed the judge." Tessa declined his offer. Scott's eyes dimmed for a moment. "Well,
it's okay, then."
Tessa didn't hear the change in his tone. Instead, she smiled as she made another suggestion. "I can
invite you out for dinner after the competition ends." Scott was taken aback for a moment, and the dim
look in his eyes lit up again. "I’ll wait for your good news, then," he said, smiling.
After she left the orchestra, she went directly back to the villa. It was rare for her to return home this
early. So, after she washed up, she took the initiative to video call Nicholas. Soon enough, Nicholas's
handsome and charming facial features appeared on the screen.
"What are you up to?" Tessa gazed at him affectionately as if she intended to make up for the lack of
love that she had given him in the past two days.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNicholas returned the affectionate gaze. "I just arrived at the company," he remarked. Tessa nodded as
she held her mobile phone and turned to find a comfortable posture. Then, in a soft voice, she told him
that the competition rules had been released by the orchestra that day. "Everyone in the orchestra
seems really stressed out now."
"What about you? Do you feel stressed?" Nicholas look this opportunity to question her.
Tessa responded honestly. "It's a little stressful. The judges that Miss Hathaway invited this time are
well- renowned musicians in the industry, but I believe I will win in the end."
The corners of his lips tugged into a genuine smile when he saw confidence blooming in the girl’s eyes.
Then, he nodded slightly before speaking in a soothing tone. "There will always be hurdles in life.
Going abroad is your first step toward your dreams, and this upcoming competition is your second step.
I'm sure everyone recognizes the effort you've put into this, and I'm sure you will succeed in the end."
Tessa felt like the tension in her heart seemed to have dissipated after hearing the man's words. Then,
just before she could say anything, Nicholas suddenly changed his tone. "But I am very dissatisfied
with one thing now," he stated.
"What's the matter?" Tessa felt her heart rate increase when she looked at the man's serious
expression. I didn't do anything to make him angry, did I?
Nicholas looked deeply into Tessa's eyes while speaking in a tender and concerned tone. "You're
getting skinny."
Tessa was startled for a moment before feeling a gush of sweetness pouring out of her heart. "I’m fine."
She coaxed him gently. However, he vehemently disagreed, "You don't look like you're fine. Although I
support your dreams, you shouldn't make me worry about you, okay?""
"Okay, I promise I'll take good care of myself!" Tessa promised him wholeheartedly.
Early the following day, Tessa went downstairs after washing up, where she found a strange woman
who wasn't the housekeeper. "Please enjoy your meal, Miss Reinhart." After the woman gave Tessa
her breakfast, she respectfully retreated from the room.
Tessa eyed the housekeeper suspiciously. Then, without waiting for her to ask, the housekeeper took
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe initiative to explain the situation. "Miss Reinhart, this is the nutritionist that the young master hired.
She mainly takes care of your diet and daily life." After she heard this piece of information, Tessa felt
like her chest was stuffed with marshmallows. It was all warm and sweet inside. All of this caused her
to feel as though she was bursting with motivation to do her best today.
At the same lime, in Dynasty Gardens, Gregory's mind was running all over the place as he hadn't
seen nor spoken with Tessa for several days. So, when he saw his father coming home, he couldn't
help but pester him. "Daddy, I want to see Miss Tessa. 1 really miss her. Can we visit her, please?"
Gregory was holding Nicholas's thighs, and his eyes, which were like black gems, already had tears.
As though he would immediately start crying if Nicholas didn't agree to his suggestion. Unfortunately,
Nicholas pressed his thin lips together as he furrowed his brows. He, too, wanted to see Tessa, but
now simply wasn't the right time to do it. So, although he couldn't bear to do it, he still stuck firmly on
his decision to reject Gregory. "No, Aunt Tessa is very busy now. We’d only disturb her if we went there
now."
