Chapter 980 Bottleneck
As soon as he finished speaking, Nicholas buzzed Edward over and instructed, “Kindly
show Miss Muller the way out.” Wanda had no other choice except to leave in dismay.
Her mood was pretty terrible by the time she stepped out of the office building. Darn it!
Nicholas really isn’t giving me the slightest chance at all! Even so, I’ll never give up.
Nicholas didn’t know about Wanda’s thoughts. Once again, he dived into his hectic work
schedule after he sent Wanda away.
When he saw that there weren’t many affairs left that required him to deal with, he
planned to get them done as soon as possible and book a flight to Vienna within these two
days.
At the same time, Tessa was also preoccupied with tasks related to her new songs.
After all, if she wanted to present her audiences with good quality songs, she had to put in
double the effort not to let the people supporting her down.
Sometimes, she even needed to look for inspiration first before she could produce a song.
For this reason, she bothered Sofia and several of her seniors quite a bit during this period
of time.
Gregory was worried sick after he saw Tessa working herself to the bone daily.
But since he was young and inexperienced, he couldn’t be of much help. So every day, he
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcould only sensibly behave himself a little and try not to disturb Tessa.
Even so, the progress of Tessa’s new song production was still slow going.
This made her extremely anxious.
Meanwhile, Sofia, too, sensed Tessa’s emotional fluctuations. Therefore, she suggested to
Tessa by saying, “I feel that you’ve reached a bottleneck phase now. How about this? You
don’t have to report to the orchestra for these two days. Go and have a walk to get some
fresh air with your friends. Relaxing your body and mind may be helpful to you.”
As she listened to Sofia’s advice, she thought it made sense. Hence, she phoned her best
friend, Mona.
“Tessa, aren’t you busy with your new songs lately? Is there something urgent?”
“My progress hasn’t been very smooth recently. Miss Sofia said that I’d reached a
bottleneck phase. She asked me to temporarily put my work down and gave me a two-day
break, suggesting that I ask my best friend out for a walk. So, I immediately thought of
you. What do you say? Do you want to go shopping with me today?”
Tessa told Mona the truth without intending to hide her actual situation.
Initially, she thought that Mona would happily agree to go shopping with her. Therefore,
she was somewhat surprised when Mona rejected her.
“I really want to hang out with you, but I can’t. Not today. Miss Hathaway is giving me
special training.”
As she listened to Mona feigning despair, she laughed a little before saying, “Just be glad
that Miss Hathaway is keeping an eye on you and giving you personal training.”
Mona giggled in reply. Then, as if she remembered something, she suggested. “By the
way, Mr. Brooks has returned to Vienna recently. So, why don’t you look for him and ask
him to give you some pointers?”
As she listened, Tessa felt that Mona’s suggestion indeed held some value.
Setting aside the fact that Scott was now a sophisticated musician, he could consistently
provide Tessa with different enlightenment with his unique understanding of music.
Thus, she took the initiative to invite Scott for a meet-up after she ended the call with
Mona.
Meanwhile, Scott was pretty happy to see Tessa, who seldom asked him out. Plus, she
even took the initiative to suggest a get-together.
“Let’s meet there then.”
Scott stated an address, and Tessa readily agreed.
Half an hour later, the two met in a quiet cafe.
A trace of sadness painted across his eyes as he looked at Tessa, who was beamed with
joy. Nevertheless, he soon quickly masked his sorrow, for he knew he had no chance to be
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwith Tessa. Being her friend is the best option I can have right now. It’s best that I keep
some things hidden from her. Otherwise, we may not even be able to be friends in the
future.
On the other hand, Tessa didn’t notice Scott’s oddity and greeted him with a smile, “Mr.
Brooks, when did you return to Vienna?”
“Just about two days ago.”
As Scott spoke, he began to express his concern about Tessa’s current situation. “Are you
doing well in the Sofia Symphony?”
“Pretty good. Miss Sofia planned to test the water by arranging for me to release an album
recently.”
Tessa briefly explained her situation. After that, she said shyly, “Actually, it’s also because
I’ve encountered a problem that I asked for a meet-up today. So I want to seek your
advice.”
Scott teased her, “Since it’s a problem that can stump you now, it must be a conundrum
then.”
“It’s definitely a challenge for me, but not for you.” Tessa blinked and jokingly added, “Mr.
Scott, you’re recognized by the industry as a prominent musician of the future. So this
problem certainly won’t be a difficult one for you.”
Scott burst into laughter before he replied, “Can I take your words as a compliment to my
musical skills?”
