Chapter 425:

As the sun rose, Elyse awoke, feeling a weakness in her legs. She lingered in bed for a while longer but eventually got up with reluctance.

She had risen an hour earlier than usual.

Seeing her descend the stairs, Driscoll was taken aback and asked, “Mrs. Owen, are you heading to the studio? The cook hasn’t made breakfast yet.”

Realizing her early start, Elyse shook her head and replied, “It’s okay. I’ll skip breakfast at home. Please have the driver take me to the studio.”

Driscoll immediately went to prepare the car.

Upon reaching the studio, Elyse promptly began practicing after finishing the sandwiches she had purchased on the way.

When Fiona arrived on her usual schedule, she felt uneasy seeing Elyse so immersed in practice.

Approaching Elyse, Fiona offered a wry smile. “I wasn’t anxious initially, but seeing your intensity sparked a crisis in me.”

She then sighed, feeling overwhelmed. “You’re incredibly competitive!”

“Fiona, I’m not very skilled. If I were as skilled as you, I wouldn’t need to practice this much,” Elyse responded, managing a smile despite feeling inadequate.

Fiona playfully poked Elyse’s waist and countered, “You’re not telling the truth. I think you’re the hardest-working violinist here.”

After a brief exchange, Elyse lost herself in her practice again.
