Chapter 376
Always Been Yours
They turned around, and a sexy, beautiful woman with blonde hair and green eyes came up to them.
She looked just like a doll, and her green eyes were like a pair of emeralds that shone in the dark.
âHello, Kathleen.â Scott smiled at her, but if someone were to look closely, his smile looked distant.
Tessa was about to call out to her as well, but Kathleen squeezed her aside, and she almost fell. When she got her bearing back, she looked at Kathleen in surprise.
However, Kathleen didnât notice Tessaâs look. She smiled at Scott. âSince weâre both free, youâre coming with me for dinner.â
Tessa looked at Kathleen, then at Scott, and she realized what was happening. Ah, so Kathleen likes him. She backed away with a smile and brushed Kathleenâs earlier action aside. She stood beside Hathaway, giving them some space.
Hathaway smiled as well, delighted that she could see the birth of a power couple. She thought her suggestion was great. If her daughter did end up with Scott, they would be a great couple, and she could have an excuse to take Scott away from Berlin Philharmonic.
Before Scott could answer, Kathleen had already held his hand like he was her best friend. âWell, silence is agreement, I guess. Now letâs go.â She tried to take him and leave.
âA minute, Kathleen.â Scott held her back and pulled his hand away. âNot tonight,â he refused.
âWhy?â Kathleen frowned, feeling upset.
âI have something to do.â
âI thought youâre on break? What do you have to do anyway?â Kathleen didnât believe Scott at all. She liked him, so she had looked into everything related to him. She knew that he would either spend his free time practising in his orchestra or resting at home.
Scott was displeased about Kathleenâs insistence, and he frowned. For some reason, he glanced at Tessa and fell into his thoughts. He didnât make it subtle though, and because Kathleeen had been eyeing him, she caught that.
Kathleen squinted at Tessa pensively for a moment, then she half-joked, âScott, donât tell me you refused me because you have a date with Tessa?â
Tessa was surprised that she was dragged in. Hey, Iâm just an audience here. She quickly waved her hands. âNo, we donât have a date. I have to stay back and practise.â In other words, she had no time.
Kathleenâs sinister smile was replaced with a genuine one.
Scott, however, looked crestfallen, and the light in his eyes dimmed.
Kathleen held Scottâs arm and smiled. âSee? She needs to stay back for practice. She has no time at all. So that means youâre coming with me.â
Scott looked at her for a while. In the end, he gave up and nodded. âFine then.â
âYay. Letâs go then!â She took him out of the practice room.
Hathaway saw the two off, and she shook her head with a smile. Then, she turned her gaze to Tessa.
She noticed Scottâs peculiar glance earlier as well, and she fell into her thoughts.
Tessa didnât notice her gaze, as her attention was focused on the next tune she was going to practise.
But then, Hathaway said casually, âTessa, what do you think of Scott?â
âMr. Brooks? Heâs a nice guy. Heâs polite, soft-spoken, and his personality is great as well. I think heâs a great match for Kathleen. Sheâs outspoken, while heâs more of an introvert. They complement each other.â
