Chapter 565
However, her eyes were always on the phone. She smiled and looked at Nicholas through the
video call.
The two stared at each other affectionately. Even if a screen separated them, one could still
sense the loving aura emanating from them.
Perhaps it was due to Nicholas' company; Tessa simply felt very relaxed. The songs she played
also came out flawless and full of emotion.
When the song ended, she actually still wanted to play a little more.
She raised her head and looked at Nicholas in the video with sparkling eyes. Then, she said
sweetly, "Does it sound good?”
"It docs." Nicholas nodded affirmatively.
"Well then, I shall play a few more songs for you.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she played another piece for him.
In the meantime, he looked at the girl dotingly.
Afterward, he listened to music from the phone while working on the tasks at hand. The smile on
the corner of his lips never faded, and he felt physically and mentally relaxed while listening to
the music played by Tessa.
It was a long while later when Tessa finished playing.

She picked up the phone, looked at the handsome man in the call expectantly, and asked, "What do
you think of the songs I played just now?"
"Except for the first piece, I felt that the pieces you played afterward had more soul, and it felt as
though you've really let go of yourself while you were playing." Nicholas pinpointed the differences
between the songs and expressed his opinion on the matter.
After hearing his comments, Tessa also nodded in agreement.
.Although she played the first song flawlessly in regards to technique, she knew in her heart that she
wasn't, fully immersed in the music itself.
However, when she gradually relaxed and enjoyed herself in the following songs, she played better.
She felt as though her mind and soul were fully in-tune with the pieces she had played.
She couldn't help but remark, "Looks like it's a good thing that I went to that bar."
Nicholas let out a hearty laugh and encouraged her by saying, "Good luck! I look forward to
improvements in your future performances.”
When Tessa heard that, she nodded and guaranteed. "I will do my best."
After that, the two talked for a while.
When he saw the sleepy look on her face, he urged, "Okay, you should have a good rest now so that
you fully focus during your practice tomorrow."
She didn't object to his advice and decided to turn in for the night.
And thus, the two said goodnight to each other and hung up.
Both of them slept well throughout the night.
The next day, Tessa went to the orchestra early.
Following Angus' reminder, she relaxed the pace of her practice.
On the other hand, Hathaway was worried about Tessa practicing alone. So, she came over and asked,
"What is the goal you have set for yourself today?"
She was worried that Tessa would customize an intensive practice plan for herself, so she planned to
intervene in Tessa's arrangement if she found out she was still doing that.
Not knowing what Hathaway was thinking, Tessa did not keep it from her and told her the task she had
customized for today.
After listening, Hathaway was surprised.
"Is that all for today?”
"Are these not enough? If so, I'll add some more." Unfortunately, Tessa misunderstood
Hathaway's words as she thought that Hathaway felt it was not enough since she had reduced
the intensity of her practice.
Hathaway hurriedly stopped her when she heard that. "No, there's no need to add more. These
are more than enough."
As she said that, she also breathed a sigh of relief. "I was worried that you were still practicing at
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe same intensity as before, so I planned to come and intervene. But it's good that you know
how to relax now. It really worried me when I saw you practicing with the intensity of going to
war."
When Tessa heard that, she was a little embarrassed. "I was too tense before and got too into
my head that I took it too far. So I plan to take it easy now and really feel what the music is like
instead of focusing on just the practical skills for a piece."
This time, Hathaway was even more surprised.
She did not expect Tessa to have such valuable insight. Thus, she couldn’t help praising her in
delight, "It's good that you've finally understood this. I was genuinely concerned about you a few
days ago since I thought you would burn out at the rate you were going."
"I’m sorry for worrying you, Miss Hathaway. It will never happen again in the future." Tessa
thanked Hathaway for her concern.
Hathaway waved her hand indifferently at her thanks and said with a smile, "Since you have
figured it out, I won't be intervening in your practice."
Tessa nodded in reply.
After she changed the intensity of her practice, she found that her mental state was even better
than the previous days when she was so focused on improving her practical skills. Therefore,
she became even more determined with her plans.
That night, she went to that bar again. However, this time she didn't go there alone.
