Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 224

Chapter 224
Although Tessa was only wearing a simple white T-shirt and a pair of light blue jeans, she appeared as someone who was well-put-together in the eyes of the public. Her simple outfit looked even more imposing than those gorgeous stage costumes, making people’s eyes light up.
Tessa took a few deep breaths before putting the violin on her shoulder. One by one, the musical notes came alive and danced around, accompanying Tessa’s musical movement. It was as if they had a soul of their own. Soon, the melodious violin sound came.
At once, the initially whispering noises among the visitors in the cafe disappeared. Everyone’s attention seemed to be attracted by the person standing on the bandstand.
The main rhythm of this song was pristine and clean, while the sound of the violin was melodious and beautiful. By incorporating her own emotions, it was as if Tessa was plangently telling a story through the music. As the people listened to Tessa’s performance, they had mixed emotions.
When the music ended, there was still silence in the cafe. Suddenly, there was a burst of applause coming from the corner. Subsequently, the audience gave out thunderous applause.
At that moment, Tessa could not help but twitch her nose a little. Although it had not been long since her last performance, she felt like a lifetime had passed now that she heard the sound of applause again.
Showing a meaningful smile, Tessa took a deep bow. “Thank you, everyone.” Soon after, she walked down the stage.
Meanwhile, the applause did not stop until Tessa returned to her seat.
Looking at Scott smiling gently in front of her, Tessa felt slightly clueless. “Was I a little showing myself up in front of an expert?”
Upon hearing that, Scott smiled and shook his head. “Why do you think so? Your performance was perfect! It was a performance that carried a slight emotion, which I don’t hear often.”
Then, Scott paused for a while before continuing, “Miss Reinhart, your violin skill is so good. Didn’t you consider joining other orchestras after leaving the Heavenly
Chorus Orchestra?”
Tessa was slightly frustrated. “How could I not think of it? But… if I continue to stay in Brentwood, I’m afraid I won’t have the chance to stand on the stage.”
“In that case, why don’t you consider leaving Brentwood to develop?” Scott asked tentatively.
After listening to Tessa’s performance, Scott had a vague idea that he wanted to recruit Tessa. I want to recruit her to join the Berlin Philharmonic. Such a good candidate should not be cramped here. If Tessa is willing, I can recommend her and arrange a chance for her to meet with our music director, Robert Miller.
“She’s not leaving.”
Suddenly, a sullen low voice of a male sounded above their heads before Tessa could answer.
Feeling a little shocked at the voice, Tessa raised her head. When she saw the person who came, she was instantly at a loss. “Nicholas? Why are you here?”
However, Nicholas pursed his lips. Instead of answering Tessa, Nicholas simply turned to Scott. “I’ll take her away.”
After the statement was made, Nicholas directly pulled Tessa’s wrist and walked out of the cafe.
“Nicholas! Let go of me! You’re hurting me! What are you doing?” Tessa exclaimed as she struggled, trying to break herself from Nicholas’ clutch. However, Nicholas’ grip became stronger and stronger, and he firmly held her wrist in his hand.
Still, Nicholas pursed his lips and did not speak. Instead, he directly pulled her and walked forward.
Nicholas showed up here because he had received news saying Tessa was in a cafe. So, he came to find her deliberately. He wanted to tell her that the decision made by the Heavenly Chorus Orchestra previously was annulled, so he came here purposely to ask her to return.
However, Nicholas did not expect that he would see Tessa performing on stage as soon as he arrived at the cafe. After finishing her performance, she even talked and laughed with an anonymous male.
How would I not know the hidden message behind that man’s words? If he wants to trick
Tessa, that’s out of the question!
“Nicholas! Did you not hear me? Let me go! What are you doing exactly? Where are you taking me?” Tessa was a little exasperated.
Are all members of the Sawyers so hegemonic, doing whatever the hell they want without any negotiation? I’m not someone that the Sawyers can ask to come and can get rid of at the wave of a hand. By what rights are they treating me like this?
Upon hearing Tessa’s constant exclamation, only then did Nicholas halt his tracks. Then, he said coldly, “Come with me. I have something to tell you.”
“What is it that you want to tell me that you can’t say properly? Let me go first,” Tessa also said coldly.
At the same time, Tessa was secretly making snide comments in her mind. How inexplicable! Did I mess around with him or provoke him? Why is he having such a huge resentment? He’s making it seem like I did something to him!
