Chapter 616 A look of surprise appeared on Mona and Scott’s faces at the musical sound cutting through the

air.

“This zither sounds remarkable!”

Tessa nodded in agreement and thought that the sound was indeed sui generis. It was smooth, but it had

a sharp quality to it, and her teacher would definitely like it.

“This is it. The present for Miss Hathaway will be this zither. Please wrap it up for me.” Her last sentence

was meant for the shop assistant.

Mona was inspired by Tessa’s choice and started browsing the room when she saw that Tessa had

already made a purchase.

“Tessa, what type of instrument is this?”

Suddenly, she pointed to an intricate lute and looked at Tessa.

She immediately looked over and explained, “This is also a string instrument native to my country.”

Mona’s eyes lit up in excitement when she heard Tessa’s explanation. “What about the sound?

How is it?”

“Why don’t I try it out for you, and you can listen to it before deciding on your gift?”

That was more than Mona could ask for, so she eagerly accepted the suggestion. “That would be

amazing! Thanks!”

Half an hour later, all three of them had selected their gifts-Mona chose the lute, and even though Scott

didn’t pick a string instrument, he settled with a drawing instead.

Since almost all his previous presents were string instruments in the past few years, he decided to switch

things up a little this year.

When it was time to pay, the butler had already paid the bill for Tessa.

However, Mona and Scott had received a discount from the shop because of Nicholas.

When they left after paying, Mona couldn’t help but exclaim in wonderment, “I always have good fortune

when I’m around you, Tessa.”

Tessa was amused, and Scott brought up the idea of having dinner together, to which the girls agreed.

Hence, the three of them went to a Western restaurant with a pleasant ambiance. During their meal,

Scott received a call from Kathleen.

“Scott, I heard that you’re back after a successful performance. Are you free tonight? Let’s have dinner

together.”

“Next time, maybe. I already have an appointment tonight.”

“Really? Who beat me to it?”

He said truthfully with a slight chuckle, “It’s Miss Reinhart and Mona.”

On the other end, Kathleen heard the answer she was expecting and clutched the cell phone in her hand

tightly in fury.

That b*tch, Tessa Reinhart. She already has a boyfriend but keeps stringing other men along! she cursed

silently, completely overlooking Mona.

Despite her boiling anger, her voice sounded normal, and nobody could tell that she was irked by the

facade she had on.

“I see, so it’s Tessa. I won’t bother you, then. I’ll ask you out next time.”

When the call ended, Scott continued eating with Tessa and Mona. The atmosphere between them was

joyful the whole time, and because Mona was very curious about the culture of Xerthania, she kept the

conversation flowing with questions directed at Tessa.

After dinner, Scott sent Mona home because Tessa had her own driver, and when she was home, she

washed up simply and lay in bed as she called Nicholas.

“Did you have fun in the evening?”

“I sure did. Also, thanks for your investment today. Once I have money in the future, I’ll return it to you.”

“Do you have to draw such firm boundaries with me?” He cast her a dissatisfied look with raised brows.

Tessa giggled as she knew that Nicholas was willing to spend money on her, and even though she

thought it was really sweet of him, she also had her principles that she wouldn’t set aside.

“I’m not married to you yet, and I can’t keep spending your money. Furthermore, my brother sends me a

monthly allowance, so I have money to spare.”

Nicholas disagreed with her words and said firmly, “You’re my future wife, and it’s only right that you

spend my money. No matter what, you’re not allowed to spend another man’s money!”

Coincidentally, Timothy came over because of work and overheard him saying that. Disgruntled, he

pushed open the door and burst in.

“Nicholas, how could you be so bossy? What do you mean by another man? I’m her younger brother!”

Then, Timothy marched to his desk, leaned forward slightly, and snatched his phone out of his hands.

As he gazed at his sister in the video call, a gentle smile spread across his handsome face. “Tess, don’t

listen to Nicholas. I’m more than happy to let you spend my money.”

Unfortunately, Tessa was unable to come up with a quick answer as she was stunned by her brother’s

sudden appearance.
