Always Been Yours

Chapter 222

Nicholas fell silent. His reasoning is not wrong, but the Reinhart siblings have never interacted with Grandpa before. At most, they only met each other once or twice in passing. Forcing them to pay this kind of price based on those one or two meetings is overboard. Besides, there’s nothing between Tessa and I. Why did he mention her marrying into the Sawyer Family? This matter can’t be so simple for Grandpa to target them like this. I’m sure there’s some inside story behind this incident that I don’t know about.

Meanwhile, Tessa felt extremely distressed after Nicholas came to pick Gregory up. In particular, the aggrieved look that Gregory gave her before he left lingered in her mind. She could not get it out of her head. It felt like her emotions were going to suffocate her to death.

She turned on her phone and looked at pictures of herself and Gregory. Reaching out, she stroked his smiling face in the picture. “I’m sorry, Greg. I didn’t mean to hurt you…”

Nevertheless, the damage had been done. Although Nicholas managed to coax Greg into going home under the excuse that I am busy, I’m sure Greg no longer wants to see me again. He has never liked talking to strangers. In the future, what will Greg do once I’m gone?

She thought back to the time when she first met Gregory. The image of him stretching out his hands for her to carry him made her heart hurt so much that she felt as though her heart was about to explode.

She sighed. Eventually, she exited her photo gallery and stopped looking at the pictures inside. It felt as though Gregory’s shadow lingered in every corner of this house. As a result, it became too depressing to stay here alone. Picking up her keys, she walked straight out the door.

It was not until she left the house that she realized she had nowhere to go. Timothy’s company was a no go because she would only worry him if she went there in her current state. Therefore, she

wandered the streets aimlessly. Before she knew it, she arrived in the vicinity of the Heavenly Chorus Orchestra building. She was taken aback by the sight of the familiar-looking building. I don’t even work here anymore, so why did I come here? I should go back quickly!

She turned around and bumped into a person’s chest.

“I’m sorry. I’m sorry.” She hurriedly lowered her head and apologized.

“It’s fine. Just pay more attention to where you’re going next time. Don’t wander along the streets again if you have something on your mind.” A gentle voice rang out above her head.

This voice… These words… Why do they sound so familiar? She hurriedly looked up. When she saw the person standing in front of her, she immediately became dumbfounded.

Scott was also taken aback to see that it was Tessa. Then, he immediately laughed. “It’s you. I already told you to watch where you’re walking. Why are you still being so absent-minded?

Tessa was embarrassed. Out of the two occasions that she failed to pay attention to where she was going, she just had to run into him on both occasions. Be that as it may, she was a little happy to meet him again. “If I remember correctly, you are Scott Brooks, right?” All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

This time, he was the one who seemed dumbfounded. “You know me?”

She smiled and replied, “I’ve seen your performance before. You are the main violinist of the Berlin Philharmonic, Scott Brooks. The Italian song ‘Devil’s Trill Sonata’ that you performed previously was the most emotional version that I’ve ever heard in my life. The ‘Zigeunerlieder’ that you performed also

perfectly portrayed the musical style of the gypsies. If I didn’t know your origins, I would have thought that you grew up there.”

He had heard many compliments in his life, but almost all of them were very fake and shallow. They were usually praises telling him that he played very well. It was rare for somebody to comment on his music in this manner, so his eyes immediately lit up brightly.

“You’ve heard me play before?”

She smiled. “To be honest, I used to dream of becoming a performer like you and becoming famous all over the world.”

She didn’t just listen to his music-it was not as simple as that. The truth was that she had listened to the music of almost all the world-renowned musicians to the point that her ears were about to fall off. She could tell who was playing what in an instant. Even so, I still can’t find a job or a stage where I can show off my talents. Standing shoulder to shoulder with the world-renowned musicians has become nothing more than a far-off dream.

He was a little shocked. “You’re a violinist too?”
