Chapter 962 What Richelle Did
Despite what she said, she still couldn’t help but overthink the matter as her mind came up
with several possibilities. Did Richelle do something like this because she resents me?
Little did she know that she had hit the bullseye for a part of it—Richelle really did despise
her that much. However, as Sofia was too strict, she didn’t dare to do anything until an
evening a few days ago.
In the vast training room of Group Six, Richelle was the only one left still practicing. She had
been practicing until late evening before she started packing her things away, and Susan
appeared then.
”Richelle,” she called, stopping Richelle before walking over to her.
Richelle’s eyes flashed with befuddlement when she saw Susan since they weren’t close,
but she still stopped in her tracks and asked, ”What’s up?”

”Nothing. I just noticed that you’re still around, so I thought to have a little chat with you.” A
scheming look flickered briefly in Susan’s eyes as she chuckled softly. ”Frankly, I think
there’s no need for you to practice so hard now. Miss Sofia has already accepted Tessa as
her apprentice, and she probably won’t accept anyone else for now.”
Richelle scowled when she heard Susan’s disparaging remark. One could say that Susan
had stepped on Richelle’s minefield when she said all those things.
Therefore, she snapped angrily, ”What’s it got to do with you whether I work hard or not?”
It didn’t bother Susan one bit that Richelle was fuming mad because she had hit where it
hurt. Instead, she merely smirked before saying suggestively, ”This indeed has nothing to
do with me, but I just feel so terrible for you. You’ve been in the band for a few years, and
everyone knows you want to be Miss Sofia’s student. Just when you thought that your
dream was about to be realized, someone snatched it away from you just like that.
Honestly, I applaud your good temperament. If I were in your shoes, I definitely wouldn’t be
able to take it lying down.”
Actually, she deliberately said all of this just to incite Richelle. But then, as she considered
how Richelle was now clearly foaming at the mouth to rip her head off, she successfully
ignited Richelle’s suppressed fury.
”What exactly are you trying to say?” Richelle balled her fists in outrage as she shot
daggers with slightly reddened eyes at Susan.
Hence, Susan decided not to beat about the bush and said bluntly, ”I know that you hate
Tessa. However, if you would like to teach her a lesson, I can help you with that.”
Richelle was taken aback as she blurted, ”Why would you do that?”
Although it wasn’t a lie that she would love to see Tessa disappear from her life, nothing in
life was free. So it was only natural for her to regard Susan warily. She couldn’t believe that
someone would help her out of nowhere.
Susan undoubtedly noticed that Richelle had her guard up, and she chuckled lightly before
saying mysteriously, ”Just think of me as doing a good deed. Or maybe, you don’t want to
teach Tessa a lesson at all. If that’s the case, then just forget about it.”
After she said her piece, she pretended to leave. Then, just as she anticipated, Richelle’s
somewhat agitated voice echoed from behind her. ”How are you planning to teach her a
lesson?”
Clearly, Richelle was swayed by her words. With that thought in mind, Susan couldn’t help
the gleeful smirk that painted across her face when she heard Richelle’s question due to the
sheer delight that her plot had worked.
Nevertheless, when she twirled around, her face was wiped clean of all other emotions. She
merely took out the sheet music which she had stolen from her handbag and passed it to
Richelle.
Richelle gave her a puzzled look. ”What’s this?”
Susan plastered on a fake smile that didn’t reach her eyes as she hinted, ”I think Tessa

Although she didn’t finish her sentence, Richelle already understood what she meant.
When Richelle considered her current position in the orchestra, where she was an easily
replaceable piece while Tessa was the new rising star, she tightened her jaw and decided to
bite the bullet.
The next day, she heard that Vernon was collecting scores in preparation for publishing a
new song; she didn’t hesitate to send the score to him without pausing to think about the
consequences.
Honestly, she regretted it immediately after sending the score to Vernon.
For the past couple of days, there was quite a commotion in the band because Tessa had
lost her score, and Sofia wanted to get to the bottom of this matter. As a result, Richelle was
utterly terrified as she was worried that she would be sussed out almost instantly.
It was accurate to say that she had been going to the band fearfully for the past couple of
days.
But Tessa didn’t know about all this, and she was dispirited after she learned of the culprit’s
identity.
The following day, she brought Gregory to the band. When they arrived, she dropped him
off at the training room but didn’t plan to accompany him this time.
”Sweetheart, be good and practice alone for a bit. I have to look for Miss Sofia to settle
some issues. I’ll be back right after that, okay?”
