Chapter 945
Always Been Yours
Chapter 945 I Wonât Let That Bad Woman Pester Daddy Since Tessa had to go to the orchestra later, she woke up pretty early. While the family of three shared a pleasant breakfast, Tessa reconfirmed the guest list with Nicholas. âIâve invited Mona, my mentors, and three of my seniors.â
It wasnât that Tessa didnât want to invite her other seniors, but they had all left Vienna for their performances. Nicholas nodded, then said, âI have a few good friends coming over.â
At that, something seemed to have struck him, and he asked, âYou didnât invite that woman, did you?â
Naturally, Tessa knew who he was referring to, and she couldnât help sighing. âWell, I didnât want to invite her, but I didnât expect her to be so shameless.â
âWhat happened?â He looked at Tessa with a frown.
Tessa recounted what happened a couple of days ago, âShe happened to run into me inviting Miss Sofia over. I wanted to ignore her, but once she heard that the invitation was for your birthday dinner, she invited herself. Since Miss Sofia was present, it was hard for me to turn her down.â
âThis woman is everywhere,â grumbled Nicholas with contempt. âWell, thereâs nothing much we can do.
If anything, weâll just stay away from her tomorrow night,â Tessa advised.
As displeased as Nicholas was, he nodded still. After all, Tessa had already agreed to let Eunice come.
Just then, Gregory patted his chest and promised, âDonât worry, Mommy. I will protect Daddy and make sure that Mean Lady wonât pester him.â
The little guy didnât know about this originally, but because Eunice kept hitting on Nicholas, word gradually spread among the orchestra, so naturally, Gregory picked up a thing or two.
Tessa burst into a chuckle, amused by the little guyâs grave face. âIn that case, you have to keep a close eye on your daddy tomorrow night.â
âI will definitely protect Daddy and make sure that bad woman doesnât pester him.â Gregory nodded firmly, causing Nicholas to smile as well.
The scene of the family chatting away was absolutely homely.
Sometime after breakfast, Tessa brought Gregory to the orchestra, but lo and behold, Sofia came over shortly after she entered the training room.
âMiss Sofia,â Gregory called out enthusiastically, and Tessa greeted Sofia amiably as well.
However, because Sofia was troubled by something, she sent the little fellow on his way for violin practice after greeting him with a nod.
Tessa noticed something amiss, and she asked, âIs something wrong, Miss Sofia?â
âCome with me,â said Sofia solemnly and walked out of the training room after taking a gander at Tessa.
Uneasiness crept up to Tessa as she followed Sofia, for she had never seen the woman this stern before.
Does it have something to do with me? she couldnât help getting paranoid.
After the two entered Sofiaâs office, Tessa couldnât help asking, âMiss Sofia, just what exactly is going on?â
âListen to this piece. If Iâm not mistaken, itâs the one youâre composing.â While speaking, Sofia operated her computer, and a familiar tune reverberated across the office.
Tessa was so dumbstruck after hearing the music that she stood frozen on the spot, for many parts of the piece were identical to the piece she was working on.
âWhatâs going on?!â She looked at Sofia with incredulity.
âThis is a new piece Vernon published this morning,â Sofia said gravely.
âImpossible! This piece is my original work. I spent days and nights working on every note!â Tessa turned grim at once. âMiss Sofia, this Vernon guy stole my work! I want to make a police report!â
While speaking, she pulled her phone out to call the police. However, Sofia stopped her. âItâs useless to call the police now. You have no evidence proving that he stole your work, after all.â
