Chapter 1079 New Concertmaster
Since Timothy came down from upstairs, Tessa knew that he had just woken up.
“Breakfast has been kept warm for you in the kitchen. You should go have breakfast now,”
she urged. However, Timothy was in no rush to eat. Even though he felt relieved to see his
sister feeling better, he was still rather shocked by what he had seen the day before.
Furthermore, with Tessa pregnant, Timothy knew that they couldn’t afford to take any
chances with her health.
So, Timothy couldn’t help but lecture her. “I support you and your dreams, Tessa, but I
don’t support the idea of you neglecting your health. Furthermore, my future niece is in
your belly!” When Tessa saw the serious look on her brother’s face, she felt rather guilty.
She admitted to her faults, but Timothy didn’t believe her immediately. After all, he was
her brother, and he knew her well. “Anyway, I don’t want you to do this again in the future.
Otherwise, I’ll…” Timothy paused to think of a punishment for his sister, but he couldn’t
come up with anything for a long while.

it. I’ll be more careful from now on, and I won’t tire myself out anymore. Your brother-in-
law has already been nagging me, so you don’t have to do it anymore,” she uttered in a
sweet voice. But to her surprise, Timothy had more to say after hearing the mention of
Nicholas. “You’re taking advantage of the fact that Nicholas will always shower you with
unconditional care and love. He was so worried when you fell ill yesterday, and he stayed
beside you the whole time. He didn’t even have time for anything else.”
Timothy was well aware of how caring and loving Nicholas was toward Tessa. “You
shouldn’t make him worry like that,” Timothy uttered. Even though Timothy sounded like
he was feeling sorry for Nicholas, he actually felt even sorrier for his sister. After all,
Timothy knew exactly why Tessa was working so hard. “I know you’re trying to prove your
skills, but you have to consider the situation you’re in as well, Tessa. Furthermore, I told
you that I’ll always be here for you. If everything else fails, I’ll still be here to support you.
You really shouldn’t work so hard anymore,” he nagged.
Tessa felt like she had heard the same words a thousand times by then, but she couldn’t
do much apart from nodding in agreement. After breakfast, Timothy headed out for work.
Since Tessa had to stay home and rest, she ended up being the only person with nothing
to do at home. She felt really bored, so she invited Mona over for tea. Mona happened to
be free that day, so she dropped by Tessa’s house, only to find Tessa sitting alone in the
living hall. “Where’s Gregory?” Mona asked.
“Gregory’s in class upstairs,” Tessa replied with a smile. Mona nodded as she recalled how
Gregory was actively taking musical training as well as other courses. Mona no longer
asked about Gregory after that. Both the ladies walked out to the garden, and they sat and
sipped on some fresh juice outside while munching on some desserts. It was a pleasant
afternoon, and they chit-chatted for a while before Mona brought up the topic of
Hathaway’s situation. “The orchestra has plans to select a new violin concertmaster for
Group One,” she uttered.
“Why are they doing that? Isn’t Cindy doing a good job as the concertmaster?” Tessa shot
the other woman a confused look.
Mona scoffed before speaking in a rather sour tone. “What’s so great about her? Another

she’s seeing a better future for herself,” Mona explained.
Tessa frowned when she heard this. “Why is she still being so greedy?” Even though Tessa
hadn’t had much contact with Cindy in the past, the few times they interacted were
sufficient to let Tessa get a glimpse of Cindy’s personality. Mona shook her head and
smiled when she understood what Tessa meant. “Cindy used to be pretty humble, but she
has been sticking her nose high up in the air ever since she became Group One’s
concertmaster. That probably explains why she’s so eager for more opportunities now,”
Mona uttered.
“How’s Miss Hathaway now? Is she facing any troubles?” Tessa didn’t actually care about
Cindy—she was more concerned about Hathaway. Ever since Tessa found out about
Hathaway Philharmonic’s drop in ranking as a top-tier orchestra, she had been quietly
observing Hathaway. I know Hathaway Philharmonic was really impacted after the incident
with Kathleen, and it took them a while to get back on their feet. Miss Hathaway’s
probably going to feel even more disheartened if she loses another concertmaster now,
Tessa thought.
Mona had no idea what was going on in Tessa’s mind.
