Chapter 229
Once again, Tessa’s eyes lit up. She was very moved. “Is what you said true?”
Indeed, having the opportunity to learn in such an international orchestra was like a dream for any musician. Furthermore, Tessa had always dreamed of being part of the Berlin Philharmonic.
Upon hearing that, Scott nodded. “Why would I lie to you? Do you want to give it a try first?”
Tessa also nodded. “I do!”
“Then, prepare yourself for these two days. I’ll take you to the orchestra for an interview this weekend. If you pass the interview, you can come and learn,” Scott said with a smile.
Tessa nodded. “Thank you. I’ll definitely try my best!”
After returning home, Tessa turned her attention to practicing her violin.

Meanwhile, in the Sawyer Group’s office, the employees had felt that the atmosphere of the company was extremely depressing in the past few days. It seemed like the company was surrounded by a gloomy vibe.
!
!!
As everyone knew that Nicholas was in a bad mood recently, they were so scared that they were very careful when they worked. They were in fear of making mistakes with their work and enrage Nicholas.
“Was Mr. Lennington from the Sales Department summoned away by President Sawyer?” an employee asked in a low voice.
Another employee hurriedly followed and whispered, “That’s right. I heard that there’s mistakes with his report again. At this juncture, I’m afraid he’ll get scolded to the point he would weep.”
Later, another employee who was sitting beside them also suppressed their voice. “You guys still dare to chit-chat? Aren’t you all afraid that you’ll be the next target? Hurry up and check your documents!”
“When will these dreadful days be over? When will President Sawyer be happier? I’m
willing to contribute all my snacks.”
As soon as Kieran entered the company, he heard these gossips, and he could not help frowning. Then, he coughed a few times at the whispering employees.
Like they had seen a ghost, everyone was frightened that they were silent for a moment. When they saw it was Kieran, they breathed a sigh of relief. However, their faces instantly turned grim again. “Master Kieran, please persuade President Sawyer for us…”
Kieran had always had a good relationship with the employees. Upon hearing their request, he smiled. “Don’t worry. Leave this matter to me. You guys should get back to your work now; don’t make mistakes after I put good words with him. By that time, not even deities can save you all.”
Only then did the group dismiss and start getting busy with their own work.
However, Kieran actually chickened out just like the rest of the employees when he truly stood at the doorway of the president’s office.
It seems like Nicholas is really angry this time. I can even feel his anger through the door. It’s true that Mr. Lennington is getting scolded regarding his report inside the office.
Therefore, Kieran took a deep breath and knocked on the door before entering. “Nicholas, Mr. Lennington knows his mistakes. How about you let him go and correct the mistakes first?”
Upon hearing that, Nicholas glanced coldly at Bill, who was about to cry. “Run along.”
After Bill left, Kieran sighed. “Nicholas, don’t be angry. Didn’t you resolve the matter regarding the alliance marriage with the Stones? Besides, you issued a statement, and grandpa didn’t say anything. Getting angry will only harm your health.”
Nicholas looked up at Kieran coldly. “Are you so free that you don’t have anything to do? Are you aware of the time now? Yet, you’re here telling me this?”
“Okay, Nicholas-no, President Sawyer. Since we’re going to talk about business at work, don’t you also bring your emotions to work. Look at the people working under you; they’re all looking like they’ve been drained out of their lives. Can you please have mercy on them?” Kieran uttered helplessly.
“They’re not carrying out their tasks when they have the time, yet they have the time to talk nonsense behind my back. Is Sawyer Group a charity organization? Does it only support idlers? If they make mistakes again next time, you’ll be held
accountable for the company’s losses,” Nicholas said with a sullen look on his face.
At once, Kieran’s face fell, and he did not even dare to pull the corners of his mouth into a smirk. “N-No. I was wrong, Nicholas. If they deserve a scolding, go ahead and scold them. If not, I will scold them for you!”
I shouldn’t have agreed to be a persuader! I’m even being attacked for no reason. What’s worse, the attack doesn’t seem totally illogical. Argh! I have so much suppressed grievances!
At the thought of that, Kieran sighed deeply. This father-son duo is really behaving in the same manner. I just went to Dynasty Gardens in the morning and met Greg. That little buddy also had a cold facial expression. He was looking unhappy as he hugged his drawing board. No matter what I said or how I cheered him up, I couldn’t put up a smile on Greg’s face. Later, he even told me to shut up in a cold tone. He asked me to come to work if I was so free and told me not to disturb him.
