Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 319

Chapter 319
Tessa nodded and fondly watched as Nicholas got his ticket checked before entering the waiting lounge. She didn’t leave the airport until she heard his plane take off.
When she got home, her heart felt empty as she looked around the empty room. She sat quietly on the sofa, then cheered herself up. “This short separation is for a better tomorrow. So there’s nothing to be upset about.”
Perhaps her comforting had an effect, as her downcast mood improved significantly.
Just as she was about to pack up and find a job, the phone on the coffee table rang. It was a phone call from Scott.
“Miss Reinhart, are you free now?”
“What’s the matter?”
“Miss Hathaway wants to see you again.”
Tessa was a little surprised but agreed. After hanging up the phone, she dared not delay any longer as she packed up and went out.
The place they agreed to meet was at a coffee shop. When she arrived, Tessa found that Hathaway was the only one sitting on the sofa by the window. She took a deep breath, then walked over and greeted with a smile, “Miss Hathaway.”
“You’re here. Have a seat.” Hathaway signaled with her eyes for Tessa to sit opposite of her.
After Tessa sat down, a waiter immediately came over to take her order. Before she could order coffee, Hathaway’s voice sounded. “Sorry, but we’ll be leaving soon.”
Tessa looked over, puzzled.
Hathaway explained, “I’d like to show you my orchestra. What do you think?”
Naturally, Tessa didn’t refuse, and at the same time, there was faint anticipation in her heart. Hathaway Philharmonic, named after her, was formed after she announced her retirement.
Although Hathaway had only established the orchestra for a little more than a decade, it already had an international presence and an excellent reputation in the
industry. The orchestra was located on Vienna’s busiest commercial street.
Entering the hall, Tessa saw that the walls on the left and right sides were covered with photos. These photos were all scenes of the orchestra’s performances that bought them fame, and there were also photos of celebrities.
“Miss Hathaway.”
During this time, people would pass by the two and greet Hathaway respectfully while also casting curious and inquisitive glances at Tessa.
Whenever this happened, Tessa simply nodded politely in response. Afterward, she followed closely behind Hathaway and inwardly let out sighs of amazement as she explored the place.
Although Hathaway Philharmonic had only been established for around ten years, it was close to established international orchestras in terms of management and background
After wandering around, Hathaway brought Tessa to her office. After the assistant delivered the coffee, he also shut the door as he left, giving them a private space to talk.
“What are your thoughts on my orchestra after taking a quick tour?” Hathaway asked after taking a sip of coffee.
Tessa thought for a while before answering as she sat on the sofa, “Although Hathaway Philharmonic has only been established for a little more than a decade, it has developed into a well-known orchestra that is also very influential in the industry. Personally, I’m very eager to have a chance to be in such an orchestra.”
Hathaway nodded as if satisfied with Tessa’s answer. She set down her coffee and suddenly sighed. “Only those who have participated know how much effort it takes to establish such a symphony orchestra.”
Tessa didn’t know how to respond, so she remained silent and gave her a light smile. Hathaway was unbothered as she asked, “Do you know why I brought you here today?”
“I don’t.” Tessa hesitantly shook her head.
“I brought you here today mainly because I want to invite you into the orchestra as my close disciple and be a backup violinist of the orchestra.”
After saying that, Hathaway paused. “I think you should be clear about the situation of being a backup. There’s not much chance of going on stage. So if you care about something like that, just treat what I said today as nothing.”
After Tessa heard Hathaway’s offer, she was stunned into surprised silence. Initially, she thought she had no chance to be a disciple, but she didn’t expect such a fantastic turn of events. She quickly replied, “Miss Hathaway, I don’t mind.”
Although she would only be a backup violinist, she was Hathaway’s close disciple, which was an opportunity that many people could only dream of.
