Chapter 494 Suspicion on the Road

+8 Pearls

The next morning, after getting washed up, Ms. Tessa headed to the dining room. The maid had balready /be by and prepared breakfast.

Landon had also gotten up carly and was watching the news on the sofa.

The moment he saw her, he got up and wrapped an arm around her waist. “Tired fromst nightb? /bEat first- I’ll drive you to TS Entertainment afterward.” He knew her work had been focused there recently.

Ms. Tessa shot him a re.

As if it wasn’t his fault she was tired. Tonight, she definitely couldn’t let him go wild again–though she bhad /bto admit, it did feel pretty good…

“Why are you blushing?” Landon teased. “Thinking aboutst night?”

“No!” Tessa’s cheeks turned red as she quickly sat down at the table. “Let’s beat/b!”

Without looking at his smug expression, she bowed her head–and began eating.

Landon chuckled and sat beside her, dropping the teasing and joining her for breakfast.

After the meal, he personally drove her to TS Entertainment.

“Rehearsals are tough, but don’t push yourself too hard, alright?”

“Rx, I know my limits. You’re busier than I am–you need to rest, too.”

“Don’t worry. See you tonight.”

“Okay.”

While Ms. Tessa threw herself into concert rehearsals, Ysabel was also making remarkable progress.

Another piece of good news came: university admission results had been released, and Ysabel had sessfully been epted into the music program at Navoris University.

Meanwhile, Ms. Tessa’s exceptional grades drew the attention of the most prestigious schools in Murica. Both Navoris University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology wanted her. The presidents of both institutions personally visited to extend their offers, even dangling generous incentives–freedom to choose any major, full tuition waivers, and even a house.

Ms. Tessa told them she would think about it seriously, and only then did the two presidents reluctantly

leave.

She wasn’t ying hard to get–she genuinely hadn’t decided yet. There were other things she had to consider…

When news spread that two top universities werepeting for her, everyone was together to celebrate.

“Tessa, why don’t we take a break from rehearsals today and have a proper celebration bfor /byou and Ysabelb?/bb” /bsuggested the members of the/Avery band.

“Let’s wait until the concert is over. I still haven’t decided which university I’m going bto/bb./b”

She nced at Avery–she knew he was pressed for time and didn’t want to waste precious brehearsal /bHours on a celebration.

“Alright! We’ll throw a proper celebration after the concert!”

With that, everyone threw themselves back into the intense rehearsal session.

After it ended in the afternoon, Ms. Tessa changed clothes and was about to find Landon–only bto /bsee Avery getting into a heavily modified off–road vehicle.

The people in that car had an intimidating presence. They clearly weren’t ordinary.

Just then, Stephen came out and saw Ms. Tessa still standing there. He paused and lowered his window.

“Tessa, heading somewhere? I can give you a ride!”

“Get out.”

“Huh? What do you mean?” Stephen looked confused.

“I said get out. I’m borrowing your car.”

When he still didn’t react, she pulled him out herself, climbed into the driver’s bseat/b, and took off.

Something about Avery didn’t sit right with her–maybe it had to do with those people…

Stephen was left standing there,pletely bewildered.

What just happened?

“Tessa!”

He called out, but the car was already far down the road. Nothing he said would matter now. “What the bhell /bjust happened?”

Ms. Tessa tailed them for a while, but the people in the other vehicle must have noticed and started trying to shake her.

She was a skilled driver when it came to tracking–but Stephen’s car was way too conspicuous.

Not at all suited for following someone…
