Chapter 961


    Chapter 961 Could It Be Richelle?


    Tessa muttered under her breath as she recounted what happened recently, ”If I have offended


    anyone, it’s only Eunice. Did she steal my score?”


    This idea had just formed in her mind when she immediately dismissed the thought. Even though


    Eunice was far from amicable toward her, Eunice was still a professional through and through.


    Timothy pressed when he noticed the shift in Tessa’s eyes, ”Tess, do you have a suspect?” ”No.” She


    jerked back to her senses and shook her head.


    He was clearly unconvinced as he insisted on an answer. Finally, out of wits, she told him about her


    conflict with Eunice. ”Although she’s not a likable person, I have faith in Miss Sofia’s judgment. So, I


    don’t think it’s her.”


    Since that was her opinion, Timothy took her words as is. Despite that, he still had an awful impression


    of Eunice, and he couldn’t help but think derisively, The nerve of this woman to seduce Nichs!


    When the call ended, Tessa palmed her phone as she furrowed her delicate brows in thought. As


    expected, she really couldn’t think of anyone who would target her this way.


    Just then, Nichs came upstairs because she didn’t return for breakfast for a long time, so he decided


    to check on her.


    When he noticed that she was standing in the hallway, frowning deeply while rubbing her fingers


    against the screen of her phone thoughtfully, he couldn’t help but go to her in concern. ”What


    happened? What has upset you?”


    Tessa didn’t bother hiding anything, so she told him about her discussion with Timothy earlier. ”Timothy


    said that the one who deleted the surveince must be a highly-skilled hacker, but I couldn’t think of


    anyone who would go through so much trouble just to steal something.”


    After Nichs listened to her concerns, his eyes turned solemn. ”It’s alright. I also asked someone to


    look into this matter, and I believe we’ll have answers soon. Let’s have breakfast first. Aren’t you going


    to the orchestrater?”


    She nodded and followed him to the dining room.


    Unbeknownst to them, they couldn’t find any lead to the theft because Susan smartened up after faking


    her death. As she had previously been through a great deal of pain because of her carelessness, she


    wouldn’t risk the same mistake that would lead the investigations back to her.


    Hence, after she obtained the score, she asked her father to delete the surveince so that even the


    best hacker wouldn’t be able to recover it.


    When Tessa was finished with breakfast, she brought Gregory to the orchestra while Nichs went to


    the branch office.


    Not long after he was deep in work, Edward knocked on his door and came in with a report. The instant


    he was done with his ount, he heard Nichs’ usual dispassionate tone ring across the room, ”I


    asked you to check up on that Vincent before. How are things going with that?”


    ”I was about to tell you,” Edward answered and politely told him the results of his investigations. ”I


    found out that Vincent was in contact with someone from Madam Tessa’s orchestra band a few days


    ago.”


    Nichs’ face turned cial when he heard that. ”Who was it?”


    ”A violinist from Miss Sofia’s Group Six, Richelle.”


    The name was not the least familiar to Nichs, and he narrowed his eyes as he instructed, ”Go and


    find out whether this person has any conflict with Tessa in the band.”


    Edward nodded affirmatively as he heeded Nichs’ instruction and left to make the necessary


    arrangements. That evening, Nichs didn’t bring this up immediately when he returned home.


    Instead, they enjoyed a pleasant dinner harmoniously as a family.


    It wasn’t until Tessa had coaxed Gregory to turn in for the night that he pulled her into his arms to tell


    her about this.


    ”I have some leads regarding the theft.”


    From N?velDrama.Org.


    ”Did you find out who did it?” Tessa gasped, turning to him in surprise.


    Nichs nodded and briefly told her about Edward’s findings today.


    ”It’s the violinist from Group Six of your band named Richelle. Do you know her?”


    ”I do know her.”


    Tessa pursed her lips when she heard the name. She had never imagined that the person who stole


    from her would be Richelle. Meanwhile, Nichs could tell from her face that there was some hidden


    issue she had never told him of regarding this person.


    ”What’s wrong?” he asked softly as he lowered his head to gaze at her in worry.


    She knew he was just concerned, so she shook her head as she reassured him. ”Actually, it’s not


    anything important. It’s just that Richelle desperately wants to be Miss Sofia’s apprentice, and she has


    been working very hard to achieve that goal. But it seems that she didn’t make the cut.”
