    Chapter 377 Rebuttal


    Tessa told her what she really thought without any hesitation.


    Hathaway had the same sentiment. She wanted Scott to be Kathleen’s boyfriend not only because he


    was brilliant enough for Kathleen, but also because he could amodate her daughter. But still, she


    didn’t forget why she asked that question, so she joked, “Even you think he’s boyfriend material, huh?


    So, you’ve been getting along with him for days now. Are you catching any feelings for him?”


    The question caught her by surprise. Tessa took some time to process it, and she realized that


    Hathway must have misunderstood something. She was amused, but she looked at her seriously.


    “Miss Hathaway, I have someone I like, but he’s back home right now.” She brought up what happened


    before to convince Hathaway about that. “My family wasn’t the only one who showed up during my


    birthday. He came too. He’s a brilliant man, and I won’t fall for anyone besides him in this life.”


    The smile on Tessa’s face convinced Hathaway that she wasn’t lying. She nodded sheepishly. “Please


    don’t take what I said to heart.”


    “It’s okay. I can understand.”


    “That’s great.” She heaved a sigh of relief. Then she remembered something, and she said, “Kathleen


    might be my daughter, but she’s been living with her father ever since the divorce, so she’s a bit


    spoiled. If she does anything cheeky, please don’t take it to heart.”


    “I won’t.” She nodded with a smile.


    Later, Tessa went home after practice and cleaned up a little, then she called Nichs. He was in his


    office, and a gigantic french window stood behind him. The golden sunlight shone upon him, basking


    him in a divine glow.


    They chatted for a while, then Hayley suddenly came in. Nichs’ face fell, but he still told Tessa


    warmly, “That’s it for now. I’ll call youter.”


    Oh, he must have work now. She nodded and hung up.

    Nichs put his phone down, and his smile was reced by a dark look. “What do you want?” he


    asked coldly.


    Hayley stared at him dumbly. She saw him talking so gently a moment ago, but his attitude changed


    when he was talking to her. Was I seeing things? No. That was true. Why does he treat me so


    differently? And who was that on the phone? But she didn’t ask all those questions and hid her


    emotions. Instead, she smiled. “I need to talk about some problems with the project.”


    “What is it?” Nichs didn’t refuse, for work was work after all.


    He’s just going to talk about work, huh? She took a deep breath and held her disappointment down,


    then she brought up all the problems with the project. They weren’t major problems, but Hayley needed


    to have an excuse to talk with Nichs. Her father’s n aside, she wanted to show up in front of


    Nichs more. She knew he didn’t like her, but she thought he would be moved by her efforts in time.


    Nichs saw through her, but since Hayley was only talking about work, he didn’t expose her little n.


    After spending a little time settling all the problems she brought up, Nichs sent her away.


    Tessa held her phone, blinking curiously. She heard Hayley’s voice just now, but she didn’t suspect


    anything, as Nichs had told her that the Stone Family was one of hispany’s partners. She put


    her phone down and went to study her sheet music. This time, it was a luby.


    The white light shone upon her, showering her in holiness. It was eleven soon enough, and Tessa was


    going to sleep, but for some reason, she wanted to record the luby she yed earlier.
