Chapter 216
Just what is the reason for them to shut me out? Just as Tessa was racking her head to figure out the
problem, her phone started ringing. It was her old music director, Trevor!
As soon as the call connected, Trevor spoke first. “Tessa, have you been interviewing around?”
She was puzzled to hear those words. She had not told anybody about her interviews-even Timothy did
not know about this. “How did you know, Mr. Oswald?”
He sighed. “We are all in the same industry, so it’s only natural for the other music directors and I to
interact with each other. That’s how I heard that you’ve been interviewing everywhere.”
She was speechless and did not know what to say. She initially assumed that she had been very
secretive about how she had been interviewing around. Even her younger brother was clueless about
this matter, so it should have been impossible for outsiders to know. Who could have known that news of
her being rejected everywhere had already spread throughout the industry? However, this was not the
time to wonder why everybody knew about this. It was more important to know why this was happening.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe hesitated for a long time before asking in a hoarse voice, “But, why—”
“I know what you’re wondering. But, you’re such a smart person. Can’t you tell? You’re being targeted.
None of the orchestras in Brentwood City would willingly risk being shut down by hiring you. Tessa,
we’ve known each other for so long. I hope you give up on the interviews. No matter what you do, the
outcome will be the same.”
At first, Trevor thought that she would understand on her own. Contrary to his expectations, he continued
to receive news about how she was going around interviewing everywhere even though it had been days
since she first got declined. She was stuck in a constant and daily cycle of attending interviews and
being rejected.
Despite being rejected repeatedly, she continued running around and asking everywhere. She worked
tirelessly, like a spinning top that could not stop. It was all in hopes that one of the orchestras would take
her in.
He originally did not want to tell her such a terrible truth, but he could not bear to continue watching her
struggle. After all, he was well aware of how hardworking and inherently talented she was. It was for this
reason that she could not withstand such a shock.
If she continued to fail at her interviews, she might start to doubt her abilities. In the end, she might never
muster up the courage to play the violin again. That would be a great loss to the music industry.
He couldn’t bear to watch a rising new star fall just like that. Therefore, he decided to call her to remind
her of her circumstances. He hoped that she would not be discouraged just because nobody was hiring
her
When Tessa heard those words, she was shocked to the core. It’s the Sawyer Family again?
She had felt that something was odd during her interview, but she was so focused on looking for a job
that she did not think about the Sawyer Group. Allirol, she had assumed that her past performance in the
Heavenly Chorus Orchestralacollenderlher peers, so that was why they refused to accept her. It never
occurred to her that it was inually the Sawyer Group pulling the strings from the shadows to make
everybody avoid berlike the plague,
It was not until she heard the truth from Trevor that she fully understood the situation,
She did not know how she ended the call or what she said before ending the call. All she knew was that
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmher head was filled with thoughts of rushing to Nicholas and asking him why they were doing this to her.
Why must they force me into a corner like this?
After further consideration, she immediately dismissed the notion that Nicholas was behind all of this.
She was certain that he was not the mastermind. The di day and night. Their statuses were so far apart
that they were like two parallel lines. As long as nothing went wrong, these two lines would never
intersect with each other. If he did not wish to approach her, then he could just choose to not meet her
again. There was no need for him to bring Gregory to visit her again and again.
In that case, there was only one answer-the mastermind was Stefania.
Could it be that she regarded it as a breach of contract because I met Greg a few times after I resigned?
Just because of that, she refuses to tolerate my presence? Stefania is too much for doing that! Thinking
that, Tessa furiously made an appointment to meet with Stefania.
The two of them decided to meet at the cafe where they last met.
Having heard that Timothy had just established a company, Stefania assumed that Tessa was meeting
her this time to ask for more money.
