Always Been Yours

Chapter 419 Hathaway Philharmonic 20th Anniversary

“Thank you, Miss Hathaway!” Tessa thanked her in excitement the moment she got over the moment of surprise.

Hathaway smiled faintly. “Don’t get ahead of yourselves now. Although I’ve permitted you to perform on stage, I’ll be much more demanding of you and will increase the number of things you’ll need to practice from now on.”

“I don’t mind. I know you’re doing it for my sake, which is why I’ll do my best to keep up!” Tessa did not think of it as a bother at all.

She felt that Miss Hathaway increasing her practice tasks and becoming much more demanding was her mentor’s way of showing that she had expectations of her.

Furthermore, she was extremely appreciative of every opportunity to be on stage and hoped that she would be in peak condition when performing on stage.

On that same night, Tessa shared the good news with Nicholas and Gregory when she went back home.

“Miss Tessa, you’re amazing!” Gregory hugged Tessa while singing her praises.

Nicholas, though standing at the side, also had a smile on his face at the good news.

And so, over the next few days, Tessa’s schedule was filled to the brim. She would leave the house at the break of dawn and would only come home when the sun was gone. Even so, she still desperately wished that there would be more than 24 hours in a day.

Although Nicholas felt sorry for Tessa being so busy, he knew that she was doing everything she could to chase her dreams, which was why he stayed silent and had instead requested his family’s nanny to prepare nutritious meals for Tessa every day as support.
