Chapter 762 Kathleen Is Being Evasive
“No match for you? Who do you think you are?” Kathleen sneered furiously with a malicious gaze.
However, Tessa wasn’t intimidated as she smirked. “If you’re not afraid that you’re no match for me,
why are you coming up with so many petty tricks?”
A pang of guilt hit Kathleen upon hearing the accusation, but she still put up an innocent front and
denied it. “What a joke. You think you’re worthy of my time and effort?”
“Am I not?” Tessa chewed on the words while fixing her gaze on the woman in denial and suddenly
came to an idea.
Since Kathleen had decided to bring everything to light, she might as well settle their feud once and for
all, saving her from having to worry about this woman framing her constantly.
“Since I’m not worth your time and effort, why did you deliberately break my violin and set me up
repeatedly?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing that Kathleen’s face turned grim upon the confrontation, Tessa continued, “If not for Miss
Hathaway, do you think I would’ve turned a blind eye to everything you’ve done? You should be
thankful that you have a good mother!”
Kathleen flew into a rage out of humiliation as soon as she was exposed, glaring daggers at Tessa with
her gaze ablaze. “You call that a good mother?! If she really has my best interests at heart, she should
kick you out of the orchestra! I’m her daughter, me! However, she keeps defending a b*tch like you!”
“You think Miss Hathaway is defending me?” Tessa was rendered dumbstruck by Kathleen’s words.
“Who else if not you? Me?” Kathleen taunted maliciously. “Sometimes, I really wish you’d never
existed!”
Tessa covertly stood on guard when she sensed Kathleen’s hostility, and at the same time, she thought
she should just make some things clear with Kathleen when the woman had put it like that.
“First, Miss Hathaway might be defending me, but she’s also protecting you. I can press charges
against you for any sole incident you’ve caused me, leaving you with a criminal record. Do you think
you’d still have a future if you’re charged with framing a fellow musician?”
Tessa bore into Kathleen, hoping the woman would finally come to her senses and stop targeting her
when she had already broken it down for her like this. “Second, does it not exhaust you to live like this?
What’s the point of rivaling other people all the time? Is it not good enough for you to just be yourself?”
She had just wanted to talk some sense into Kathleen, hoping she would stop heading further down
into the blind alley, but Kathleen assumed Tessa was lecturing her and subsequently hit the roof. “Who
do you think you are to lecture me?! You are in no position to tell me what to do!”
With that, she raised her arm, wanting to slap Tessa.
Alarmed, Tessa reflexively evaded but slipped and fell backward because the floor was slippery,
causing her to panic.
She reached her arms out hoping to grab onto something, but it was too late as she fell.
As soon as she felt a twinge, she instinctively protected her belly and used her elbow to cushion the

ghastly.
“Ouch…” The pain was so excruciating that she kept gasping for cold air on the floor, unable to get up.
On the other hand, Kathleen was petrified, for she never imagined something like this would happen.
After finally coming back to her senses, she felt inexplicably conscious-stricken and fled the scene
when she saw Tessa groaning on the floor.
Lo and behold, she bumped into Scott and Hathaway as soon as she ran out, leaving Hathaway to
reprimand her with a frown. “What are you doing, running around like that?” she asked.
Perhaps because of guilt or that Scott was next to her, Kathleen didn’t defend herself and simply said
bashfully, “Nothing.”
Seeing so, Hathaway couldn’t help thinking her daughter was behaving evasively.
