Chapter 364 Birthday Party
Hathaway looked at her disapprovingly, and she smiled. “We do have a little gathering tonight to celebrate your birthday.”
Tessa was Hathaway’s student, and they knew she would rise up the ranks fast in the future. Almost everyone in the orchestra was happy to befriend her, so when they heard about her return from her break, they planned on throwing a little birthday party for her. She knew it was the members’ token of kindness, so she didn’t refuse it.
The orchestra held a little birthday banquet that night, and they even played the Birthday Song for her. They also bought her a cake, and it made Tessa a happy lady. The sadness of saying goodbye to her family was swept away a lot too. “Thank you, everyone,” she thanked the members genuinely.
After they divided the cake, some people started coming to Tessa to chat with her. They were all being nice.
“Tessa, everyone knows about your performance on the anniversary. Lots of them praised Miss Hathaway for having a great student like you.”
“Some even asked her about your solo performance, but she said there are no plans for that for now.”
“She said you still have a lot of flaws in terms of skill, so she has no plans to let you go solo yet.”
“I thought Miss Hathaway’s strict with us, but compared to you, we’re lucky.”
They kept chatting, and Tessa caught up on the events that happened while she was gone. She realized that she was loving the orchestra more and more.
The orchestra overseas had the habit of worshipping the strong. If someone wanted to get to a higher position, they would defeat their rivals with their own skill instead of schemes like the ones back home.
After the gathering was finished, Tessa was feeling tipsy from drinking too much. Hathaway felt worried about her. “Can you go home like that, Tessa?”
