Bound Hearts: My Vows to My Disabled Spouse

Chapter 188 Your Competitor Forever

Although Elyse missed out on the concertmaster position, she snagged a spot on the domestic concert tour. Now, she had to attend practice every day to hone her skills.

As she stood amidst her fellow orchestra members, her gaze drifted to Vicky's back, brimming

with envy.

As they delved into their rehearsal, Merlin entered the room. He looked at everyone in the room and said, "The tour begins in a month, Let's strive for excellence and leave our audience awestruck."

After saying that, Merlin exited the rehearsal room, leaving the orchestra members abuzz with excitement.

Since Elyse had never gone on a concert tour, she couldn't help but feel enthusiastic. "What a bunch of country bumpkins!"

Suddenly, Vicky's voice pierced the air. Elyse raised her head and saw her looking at everyone disdainfully.

The room fell into a hush as Vicky's words hung in the air. Did she just call them country bumpkins?

Elyse shot a helpless glance at Vicky before saying, "How irritating!"

Annoyed, Vicky snapped, "What did you just say?"

"I said you are irritating," Elyse replied, unflinching. "What has our discussion got to do with you? We didn't offend you. Yet you label us as country bumpkins. Oh, right, you are quite pleased with yourself."

Vicky gritted her teeth, shooting Elyse a resentful glare.
