Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas)

Chapter 1375 The Dinner Party

"Harper is out of jail. Based on his personality, he would definitely go after Timothy. Help me keep an eye on him. Do not let anything happen to Timothy. It will negatively affect Tessa," Nicholas instructed.

"Roger. I promise the mission will be a success," Kieran acknowledged the instructions in a joking manner.

After inquiring about the company's situation, Nicholas hung up.

For the next few days, Tessa practiced and took care of the children as usual.

In the blink of an eye, all of the invited performers for the royal celebration had arrived.

On that day, she was practicing when Sofia walked into the studio with her phone in hand.

"Tessa, there will be a dinner party tonight for the performers. You don't need to head back this afternoon. We'll be going straight to the dinner party afterward."

"Very well. I'll tell Nicholas." Tessa nodded before calling Nicholas.

He soon answered the call in a warm and soft tone. "What is it?"

"There will be a dinner party tonight for the celebration's performers. I won't be heading back this afternoon and will be going with Sofia tonight."

Tessa briefly explained the situation.

Nicholas agreed to the change in plans but was still worried enough to say, "Don't drink too much alcohol. You have just recovered."

"I know." She smiled and nodded.

That evening, she changed into a new dress and headed to the dinner party with Sofia.

The party was held at the palace. Everything at the party looked so lavish and shiny.

There were quite a few people inside the venue by the time Sofia and Tessa arrived. Everyone was dressed in grand outfits while happily chatting with each other in tiny groups, which gave rise to a cheerful air in the room.

Looking around the room that held the best musicians in the world, Tessa knew she was right to agree to the performance.

Sofia did not know what Tessa was thinking. Soon after entering the hall, she led Tessa around to greet her acquaintances.

"This is Tessa Reinhart, my new protégé. She has more talent than all of my students combined," Sofia flaunted Tessa.

"I have long since heard about your extraordinary student. Finally, we get to meet her. She's a good one," her acquaintances complimented.

All the elite musicians that were present at the venue praised Tessa.

Every time this happened, she would politely greet them and leave them with a good impression of her.

After they had greeted almost everyone Sofia knew, Sofia turned to Tessa and worriedly said, "I've introduced you to basically everyone you should know. Find a place to sit down. Don't overexert yourself."

Tessa did not reject the suggestion as she was indeed quite exhausted. Hence, she headed to the gardens outside.

It was quieter than inside the hall.

Under the moonlight, she admired the night sky while enjoying the chill breeze. The sight of her sitting on the bench in a gorgeous dress made her look so tranquil yet beautiful.

However, it did not last long as the tranquility was quickly disturbed.

At that moment, a tall non-Xerthanian man appeared in the gardens. He seemed to be around twenty-five years old and was dressed in a black tailcoat trimmed with gold thread. His beauty was absolutely ethereal and out of this world.

Tessa was startled since she had not expected to see anyone in the gardens.
