Chapter 664

Chapter 664 Headlines Hathaway appeared on stage in a glorious evening gown, and she held her arm high to wave elegantly while the bright lights struck her figure. Both Tessa and Kathleen stood on one side, each behind Hathaway. Although they had completely different styles, the three still looked like a treat to the eyes when they stood together.

Soon enough, the orchestra members made their way to the center of the stage. The applause hadn’t stopped at this point. The emcee hastily handed his microphone over so that Hathaway could give a speech. “I’d like to thank everyone for showing up to enjoy our orchestra’s performance.”

Upon finishing her sentence, she directed the rest of her team to bow to the audience. “I’m sure many news reporters are tired of waiting at this point. I can do the interview now,” she announced playfully.

Many reporters with tags indicating that they were staff members scurried forward to interview the team. Typically, Kathleen would be the brightest star on stage. However, she played nothing more than a supporting role this time because most reporters were only interested in Tessa.

“Miss Hathaway, the lead violinist in the new orchestra, is the student you took in a while back, right?” one of the female reporters asked. Hathaway responded with a proud smile. “Yes. She’s my private student, and she’s really talented and hardworking. I’m certain that she’ll be going places in the future!”

“It seems like you’re delighted with your student, Miss Hathaway. Why don’t you introduce her? So, we can get to know her better as well,” the reporter requested.

“Of course.” Hathaway turned and looked at Tessa before gesturing for her to step forward. “Come here, young lady.” Tessa lifted her dress and walked over elegantly. The very next moment, she found all the lighting and cameras turned in her direction. Although Tessa wasn’t accustomed to such events, she performed well and did not seem too nervous or reserved.

“Hello, everyone. My name is Tessa Reinhart, and I’m from Xerthania. Please continue to show us your support!” Her voice was crisp and clear, and her looks were gorgeous—the reporters and audience couldn’t stop falling in love with her.

Despite there being a lot of fans, some nasty people insisted on causing trouble. “Miss Reinhart, since you’re Miss Hathaway’s private student, I wonder if she gives you special tips and tricks that help with your performance?” someone asked. Tessa couldn’t help but frown at the question—this question was clearly a trick question to get to her.

But Tessa kept the same smile on her face as she responded to the reporter. “I believe my performance earlier is a good answer to your question.” Tessa’s smooth response impressed all of the people in the crowd. However, the reporters clearly weren’t going to let her go so easily. “Miss Reinhart, since you’re Miss Hathaway’s private student, do you see yourself as the one who’s going to take over Group Two in the future?” one asked.

“Legally speaking, you have the right to inherit this team with the position you’re in right now. Are you going to fight for it?” another one asked. The smile on Tessa’s face faded a little when she heard these provocative questions.

She scanned the faces of the excited reporters around her before responding with a rather pretentious smile. “What is this talk about heirs? I just happen to like music. My dream is to stand on the largest stage in the world. Everything else doesn’t matter to me.”

The reporters were somewhat discouraged when they heard her irrefutable response. However, they couldn’t give up as they needed a solid headline to attract their readers. “This is your first official performance, and you’ve already blown everyone’s minds away, Miss Reinhart.

You seem to be more eye-catching than Kathleen! I wonder what you think of that,” someone asked. Tessa narrowed her eyes to conceal the hint of disdain for these reporters. What’s up with these reporters? Do they have to create such drama among us? Hathaway and Kathleen were just as displeased by this comment.

Kathleen, in particular, was gritting her teeth so much that she felt like her teeth were about to shatter. How dare these reporters insult me to praise Tessa! Who are they to do that? Tessa noticed the grim look on Kathleen’s face, and she decided then that she couldn’t allow the reporters to continue guiding her interview. She wanted to avoid causing any more trouble. “My thoughts, huh? Well, I feel pretty sad tonight.”
