Chapter 305
Scott did have questions for Hathaway, so he quickly parted ways with Tessa. As she left, perhaps she was comforted by Scott’s encouragement, so her mood was rather well, all things considered. She wasn’t discouraged about Hathaway not accepting her as a student either.
Not to mention, the music director of the Berlin Philharmonic promised her that he would introduce her to a teacher from the Vienna Conservatory. Now, all she could do was practice, practice, and practice for the upcoming interview.
As she gave her current situation a good thought, she felt that she had gone abroad in too much of a hurry, so there were many things she wasn’t able to bring with her. So, she planned to go around and find the items she was missing.
Somehow, she ended up at a flagship store that sold branded musical instruments. Every musical instrument there was exquisite, and it was difficult for her to look away from such a stunning display.
Tessa was utterly captivated. Therefore, by the time she returned to her senses and left the store, it was already evening. As she recalled that it wasn’t safe to wander the streets in a foreign country at night, she hurriedly went to the supermarket to buy some groceries, intending to go back and cook dinner for herself.
Unfortunately, just when she was about to reach the residence’s entrance, she was stopped by a few delinquents.
“Hey, pretty lady. Come drink with us.”
The delinquents sniggered as they surrounded her.
“Leave me alone. I don’t know any of you!” Tessa shouted at the few people who were snickering at her; soon, fear flashed in her dark eyes. She tightly gripped the bag, lowered her head, and tried to rush out.
Suddenly, one of the delinquents grabbed her wrist, dragging her back in again with a pull.
“What are you doing? Let me go!” she shrieked as she struggled against the man.
“Relax. We just want to have some fun.” The teenagers laughed and fooled around with great enthusiasm.
As they were talking, they dragged ‘Tessa along for several steps. She was terrified, and numerous terrible incidents in the news instantly flashed across her mind. In that instant, she was so scared that her face lost its color, and she was utterly frightened.
