Chapter 210
The affairs of the Sawyer Family were not something ‘revor could meddle in. Therefore, he kept silent
regarding that matter. He planned to comfort Tessa a bit more before asking her to leave. It would not be
good for her tò stay here for too
long.
Before he could speak a word, a sharp female voice interrupted him. That person said, “Tessa, you
came! Why didn’t you let us know in advance?”
Tessa looked up. It was Queenie!
Although she rarely interacted with Queenie, they worked in the same orchestra, so it was only natural
that she was familiar with Queenie’s character. Not wanting to speak to Queenie, she simply nodded
indifferently in response.
Unfortunately, Queenie had no intention of letting Tessa off the hook just like that. She had been
rehearsing in the training room earlier but came here specifically to laugh at Tessa when she heard that
Tessa was here.

with your qualifications. Your violin skills are only mediocre at best, so please don’t disgrace us. Not long
ago, I heard that you were bragging about how you obtained this position because you were favored by
Mr. Oswald. He feels too bad to say anything, so I will speak for him instead. He doesn’t value you at: all.
He simply felt that you worked too hard, and you wouldn’t understand your value unless he gave you a
chance to run into a wall.”
“Queenie, stop that.”
After watching how Queenie triumphantly mocked Tessa, the people who came out with Queenie
couldn’t bear listening any longer and frowningly interrupted her. Her words were too much. Who among
those in the orchestra did not know that Queenie was no match for Tessa, both in terms of behavior or
violin skills?
Tessa treated everybody equally, regardless of whether she served as the assistant concertmaster or
not. She was so good-natured that it was unbelievable.
On the other hand, Queenie began throwing her weight around as soon as she came to power. She
constantly undermined and oppressed the others to establish her position.
The truth was that everybody was dissatisfied with the orchestra’s arrangements. But,
what could they say? If they raised an objection, they would probably be forced to leave together with
Tessa. It was not easy for any one of them to come this far, so there was no way they would act so
foolishly.
Now that things had come to this, they could neither speak up on Tessa’s behalf nor openly go against
Queenie. All they could do was try their best to help Tessa by stopping such unpleasant words from
being uttered.
Tessa couldn’t care less at this point. Her heart was overflowing with faint disappointment. Even so, she
refused to give up. Since Mr. Oswald can’t speak up for me and it’s the directive of the higher-ups, then I
won’t trouble Mr. Oswald. I’ll go straight to the higher-ups. I want to know just who exactly is targeting
me.
She said, “Mr. Oswald, I respect your decision. Nevertheless, can you tell me who is behind the
acquisition of the orchestra? I want to speak with them myself.”
To her surprise, Trevor’s expression froze when he heard the question.

He had no idea how to tell her. If it was anybody but the Sawyer Group, then he would have had no
qualms about telling her. Unfortunately, it just so happened to be the Sawyer Group. It would be a huge
shock to her if I told her the truth.
Queenie smiled sweetly. “No way! Tessa, don’t you know the identity of our new owner? Mr. Oswald,
didn’t you tell her?”
His expression darkened. He shot a look at her, indicating for her to shut up:
However, she ignored him completely and bluntly said, “Since Mr. Oswald refuses to tell you, then I’ll tell
you. Our new owner is the Sawyer Group. So, do you understand now?”
Upon hearing the words ‘Sawyer Group, Tessa immediately froze in shock. She never imagined that the
person who wanted to terminate her… would be the Sawyer Group.
That is to say, the directive to replace me and force me to leave the Heavenly Chorus Orchestra was
issued by Nicholas? Or, is it somebody else within the Sawyer Family? Or, is it Stefania’s doing? I don’t
understand. Why is the Sawyer Family doing this to me? Is it because I deliberately ignored Greg and
made him upset? Or, is it because I’ve gotten close to Greg recently? Is it really because of such a minor
and insignificant reason? Did the Sawyer Family spare no expense to acquire the orchestra just to drive
me away and make me lose my job?
