Chapter 985 A Fire Broke Out
That’s a pretty good idea.” Stefania agreed before continuing to say, ”When the baby is
born, we’ll ask Nicholas to entrust the baby with us, and we’ll help raise the baby. By then,
you can also look after the baby with me since you’ll be retiring from work and staying at
home.”
Her last sentence was directed at Tobias. Shortly after, the two of them began imagining
the scene where they would be playing around and having a good time with their
grandchild at home in the future. Their peers are definitely going to be envious of us.
Kieran couldn’t help but dampen his parents’ spirits by saying, ”Stop daydreaming. Why
would Nicholas entrust the care for the child with you two?”
Stefania was displeased with Kieran’s statement. So, she swiftly refuted him. ”Who says
he won’t? That girl wants to pursue her dream abroad. Do you think she has time to take
care of the child? And also Nicholas, as someone in charge of the company’s operation, do
you think he has time to take care of the child as well?”
Tobias also echoed, ”Mind your words. Are you getting too comfortable since I haven’t
punished you for a long time?”
As Kieran laid his eyes on Tobias, who looked like he was about to beat him, he
immediately finished his breakfast in a whirl of movement. He hid in the company,
expressing his fear of Tobias’ power.
In the following days, Tessa went through her musical training while composing. Although
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe days seemed repetitive, she still felt content with her life.
As for her work, perhaps because she broke through her bottleneck period, the progress
was much smoother than before.
Furthermore, Nicholas would often take her out for a walk to relax her mind and soul.
A week passed in the blink of an eye, and Tessa finally finished composing all five songs.
Not only that, each of them was a masterpiece in itself.
The next day, she happily brought all the songs to Sofia’s office.
”Miss Sofia, I have finished composing all the songs. Here: take a look at them.”
As she spoke, she handed the music scores to Sofia.
Sofia took it and looked through it meticulously. Then, she nodded with satisfaction. ”Since
the scores are completed, the next step you’ll have to take is to record all songs. How
proficient are you with these songs?
”I have practiced the songs thoroughly, so I’m quite familiar with their tunes. I think I can
try recording them now,” Tessa answered truthfully.
Sofia nodded affirmatively and said, ”Very well. You’ll start recording in the afternoon.”
That afternoon, Tessa followed Sofia to the recording studio to record the songs she’d
composed. But, unfortunately, it didn’t go as well as planned.
Due to the fact that there would be some minor modifications to the sound of the violin
when it passed through the condenser microphone, Tessa was required to adjust the
intensity of her performance in order to achieve the effect of a live performance.
Therefore, not a single song was successfully recorded in the whole afternoon.
Meanwhile, news about Tessa starting to record for her album quickly spread in the
orchestra.
One after another, many members sang their praises of Tessa’s achievement.
”Tessa, have you finished composing five wonderful masterpieces in less than a month?
That’s truly amazing!”
”I’m now starting to look forward to the final recordings of these songs.”
”As expected from the student who Miss Sofia personally selected. Your musical talent is
absolutely beyond reach.”
When Eunice and Susan heard the heaps of praises and compliments toward Tessa, they
felt agitated, for they didn’t want Tessa to release an album and become famous.
Eunice returned to the office with a rather nasty scowl on her face.
After she locked the door, she snatched her phone off the table and called Wanda.
”What is it again?” Wanda asked on the other end of the phone. The tone in her voice was
unfriendly as she was yet again interrupted from her sleep by the phone call.
Eunice wasn’t bothered by her unfriendly attitude and immediately informed Wanda about
the situation in Vienna, ”Tessa has already started recording her songs. According to her
capability, she’ll be able to finish recording all the songs in a week at most. So, when do
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmyou plan to lure Nicholas away? Otherwise, I can’t stop Tessa if she’d finished recording all
her songs.”
”Got it. I’ll go to the company tomorrow and start phase one of our plan.”
As soon as Wanda finished saying that, she immediately hung up the phone.
…
The next day, Wanda went to the company bright and early.
After she entered her office, she called in her trusted assistant and ordered, ”Go and look
up Kieran’s whereabouts for the past two days.”
Her assistant was a little puzzled, not understanding why Wanda wanted to keep an eye
on Kieran again. Even so, the assistant nodded and proceeded to fulfill Wanda’s order.
In truth, Wanda was also going for an unconventional gambit.
She knew very well that only critical matters could lure Nicholas back.
Therefore, she planned to put Kieran under house arrest for two days, making it look like
he’d gone missing. That way, Nicholas would definitely return to Xerthania to preside over
the situation.
Alas, an accident happened just before she could implement her plan.
A fire broke out in the Sofia Symphony building!
Perhaps because most parts of the orchestra building were mainly built from wooden
materials, the fire spread very quickly.
