Chapter 845 You Two Are Even
As Gregory spoke, he couldn’t help but stretch out his tiny hand to touch Tessa’s belly.
Tessa smiled. “I’m not tired.”
As soon as she finished her sentence, her cell phone rang; it was a phone call from Mona. “Tessa, I
heard that you’ve come back. Let’s get together for dinner this evening.”
“Sure.”
“Let’s meet up at the restaurant, then.”
Tessa agreed before hanging up the phone.

Half an hour later, the three of them met up outside the restaurant.
When Mona saw the exceptionally good-looking mother and son coming toward her, her eyes instantly lit
up. “Greg! I wasn’t expecting to see you.” She trotted to Gregory’s side as she liked the cute and
adorable kid very much. “Can I hug you?”
“Yes, of course.” Gregory made a special effort to do her the favor, knowing that the woman before him
was his mother’s close friend.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe more Mona looked at Gregory, the more she liked him. She hugged him while lamenting with a sigh,
“What should I do, Tessa? I feel like having such a cute son all of a sudden.”
“In that case, you can get yourself a boyfriend and get married to him as soon as possible,” Tessa joked
with a smile.
With that, the three of them laughed and joked as they entered a private room and ordered food.
Tessa hesitated for a moment over dinner. Still, she asked, “How is the orchestra?”
Even though she merely asked about the orchestra, Mona knew that she was actually worried about
Hathaway. “Don’t worry. The orchestra is now back to normal, and Miss Hathaway has returned to the
orchestra, too. She looks a little pinched, but she’s gotten back in shape.”
Tessa nodded. Initially, she was somewhat worried deep down, but now she was totally relieved.
Seeing that she was relieved, Mona purposely changed the subject, saying mysteriously, “Do you know
who took over as Group Two’s concertmaster after you left?”
Puzzled, Tessa shook her head, asking, “Who?”
“It’s Cindy.”
Tessa was startled for a moment before recalling the woman. “Ah, it’s her. She does have such
capabilities.” She and Cindy had been on bad terms over the position of concertmaster at the time.
Objectively speaking, however, she thought Cindy was quite skilled as a violinist.
Mona curled her lips. “She’s quite skilled, but she’s of questionable character.”
Upon hearing this, Tessa surmised that something had probably happened. She asked with concern,
“What happened?”
“That woman has gotten all cocky since Miss Hathaway promoted her. Not only that, but she—” Mona
quickly broke off mid-sentence, feeling that her close friend’s mood would be affected if she finished her
sentence.
Still, Tessa noticed that something was wrong. She asked, “Is she still saying that I have something to do
with Kathleen’s death?”
Mona looked embarrassed; she was somewhat at a loss for a reply. At the same time, she was also
somewhat vexed at herself. Why do I have to be such a buzzkill by mentioning these unpleasant people
in such a nice atmosphere? In the end, she replied, “In any case, you’re not part of the orchestra
anymore, so you don’t have to care about these people.”
Seeing that Mona didn’t want to talk about it, Tessa nodded lightly, though she no longer smiled as much
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmas she had just now. Although Mona didn’t talk about it, she was more or less able to figure out what had
happened.
Noticing the change in Tessa’s mood, Mona knew that there was no way she couldn’t figure it out with
her cleverness. She gave a secret sigh, knowing that her close friend was probably upset deep down.
After all, many people blamed Tessa for Kathleen’s death after such a thing happened. However, in her
opinion, Tessa really shouldn’t be blamed for these things. At the thought of this, she couldn’t help but
advise, “You don’t have to care about what those people think. Besides, now that you have a better place
to go, you should stop dwelling on the past.”
Tessa pursed her lips before saying slowly, “Actually, I’ve gotten over Kathleen’s death long ago. It’s just
that I still feel sorry for Hathaway after all.”
Understanding what she meant, Mona curled her lips. She couldn’t help but speak up for her, saying,
“Come to speak of it, what Miss Hathaway did to you was quite cruel. That’s a good thing, anyway. Now
you two are even.”
“Yeah. We’re even.”
