Chapter 854 Slander Party
Since only the people in the know were privy to what had happened, the people here thought Tessa
was not at fault. Although Gregory did not understand much of what had happened, he was certain of
one thing: His mommy changed mentor because Hathaway didn’t want her anymore. “Mommy, don’t be
sad. We’ll become much better from now on and make those people that don’t want Mommy to regret
it.”
The way Gregory comforted Tessa like an adult would was just too cute in Tessa’s eyes. He had
succeeded in cheering her up and livening up the atmosphere, as the others around were amused with
him.
In comparison with the cheerful atmosphere Tessa and the others were in, Hathaway’s one was
gloomy. Even so, she pulled herself together and welcomed the group members to the meal.
During the dinner, Cindy watched from afar in jealousy as Tessa was getting along with those tycoons.

shot after leaving us for only a few days,” she sneered with her eyes observing Hathaway’s expression.
With a slight frown, Hathaway kept her silence. In truth, she didn’t want to talk about Tessa, as doing so
would sadden her once more. However, Cindy misunderstood and thought that Hathaway shared her
dislike for Tessa, so she started a slander parade about Tessa.
“Tessa truly is a shameless person for her to be alright even after causing the Hathaway Philharmonic
to be so miserable.”
“Right? For her to find a strong backer so quickly and shamelessly, her very existence insults the
pedigree of music.”
“Say, do you guys think that Tessa had deceived Sofia?”
“Isn’t it obvious? Otherwise, why would Sofia accept such a questionable person into her group?”
As the members were extremely jealous of Tessa, their remarks about her grew vicious with each one,
as though they would feel better about themselves by doing so.
Although Cindy enjoyed listening to the member’s disparaging remarks about Tessa, she still felt bitter
about it. No matter what they were saying about Tessa, it remained an indisputable fact that she had
gotten a prestigious person as her mentor. Cindy was puzzled over how she, who was not in any way
inferior to Tessa, could only manage to become concertmaster after working hard. She was jealous of
the fact that not only Tessa was first accepted as Hathaway’s mentee, but she was also now a mentee
of one of the most prestigious people in the music industry and was surrounded by a group of famous
musicians.
Listening to the members degrading Tessa with every passing remark, Mona became furious and was
especially displeased with Cindy who had started it. “Haven’t you all said enough? If you’re jealous of
someone, then you should directly say it to them and not be so shamelessly talking behind their backs.”
She glared at each of the members who had made snide remarks and sneered as her eyes went to
Cindy, “Not only is Tessa talented, but she’s also of a good character. That is why she is favored by all
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthese people. Don’t you know that talent is everything now? She’s unlike some who only knows how to
look at others bitterly without ever trying to improve themselves even though they’re not as capable.”
Unable to realize that she was the said person, Cindy flared in anger and berated Mona. “Just who are
you talking about?”
Unafraid, Mona countered, her voice stern, “Whoever’s shoes fit. I’m talking about the ones who would
make the most noise, snide remarks, and act the most bitter about Tessa.”
Embarrassed as she was seen through by Mona, Cindy immediately exploded with anger, “Who do you
think you are for speaking to me that way?!”
Then, she paused for a brief moment, as though she had thought of something to say, and sneered,
“Oh, I’ve almost forgotten how much of a lapdog you were when Tessa was still with us. Tsk, you
should stop putting on an act now that your master isn’t even here anymore. Not only can Tessa not
see your little performance, but even I feel disgusted with you.”
“What do you mean by an act?! I’m not putting on a performance!” Mona retorted with a twisted
expression.
