Chapter 553
Kathleen smiled before she intentionally praised the other woman. “I’m rooting for you too.” The rest of the orchestra members also began to show their support for Cindy. “Cindy is the most skilled among us-she’s sure to win the competition,” one uttered.
“When that happens, you will be the lead violinist of the second orchestra team. You’ll have to look out for us then, Cindy.” The rest of the members knew themselves well enough to know that Cindy was both more experienced and skilled than them.
Cindy was pic
was pleased to hear their words and vowed to look out for everyone after becoming the concertmaster. A look of disdain flashed across Kathleen’s eyes when she saw the few of them laughing and chatting. But for the sake of her plan, she forced herself to be patient with them. “Actually, this whole competition wasn’t supposed to exist at first. It was only hosted because my mother requested for Tessa to be the concertmaster of Group Two. The other shareholders had initially chosen Cindy to take up this role.”

The few members who had been laughing felt their smiles freeze on their faces upon hearing this. Even Cindy’s expression turned sour, and she stared at Kathleen before questioning her. “What’s going on here?”
Kathleen didn’t bother to hide anything; however, she did exaggerate the story of how her mother tried to fight for Tessa to be the lead violinist. “I agree that Tessa is a good player, but I
think you’re just as good as her. Furthermore, you’re way more experienced than her, so I think you’d suit Group Two better. The whole competition only exists because my mother is biased toward Tessa. It’s really a waste of everyone’s time.”
“It seems like Miss Hathaway is truly biased,” someone commented.
“She is! She usually doesn’t allow us to perform outside, but those rules didn’t apply to Tessa at all.” The other members began to protest, heating up the discussion they had. Cindy felt more enraged upon hearing their words. “Who does Tessa think she is? During this competition, I will show her what it means to respect her seniors!”
Tessa should just wait for her turn, right? Does she think that everyone else has to step aside just because she is Miss Hathaway’s protégé? Cindy thought.
Tessa wasn’t aware of what happened at the bar at all. The next morning, she brought her violin case to practice as usual. “Good morning!” She smiled and greeted the members around her. However, many of them ignored her and pretended as if she didn’t exist. Her smile stiffened when she realized that no one was responding to her. She gazed at her surroundings and pressed her lips together before walking to the practice room when she saw that everyone was ignoring her. While she made her way there, she wondered why the members showed such a massive change in attitude toward her.
