    “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 thepetition 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 vi. It was rare for her to return home this


    early. So, after she washed up, she took the initiative to video call Nichs. Soon enough, Nichs’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 theck of


    love that she had given him in the past two days.


    Nichs returned the affectionate gaze. “I just arrived at thepany,” he remarked. Tessa nodded as


    she held her mobile phone and turned to find afortable posture. Then, in a soft voice, she told him


    that thepetition 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?” Nichs 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 uingpetition is your second step. I’m sure


    everyone recognizes the effort you’ve put into this, and I’m sure you will seed 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, Nichs 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?Nichs 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 the initiative to exin 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 ce as he


    hadn’t seen nor spoken with Tessa for several days. So, when he saw his fathering 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 Nichs’s thighs, and his eyes, which were like ck gems, already had


    tears. As though he would immediately start crying if Nichs didn’t agree to his suggestion.


    Unfortunately, Nichs 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.”
