Chapter 1088 A Siren’s Song

“We paid to dine here just so we could hear your in-house musicians perform, but you

ended up canceling the performance! If you refuse to let this lady go up on stage and play

us a tune, then you’d be defrauding customers like us!”

The customers’ complaints rose to a clamor. Since the waiter couldn’t afford to offend

them, he appeased them and said, “In that case, I shall refer to our manager and see what

he has to say about this.”

A moment later, the manager came out dressed in a business suit. He spoke to Tessa

directly, “Ma’am, I think my employee has clarified that we will only have piano

performances tonight. If you can play the piano and captivate the crowd with your

performance, I’ll make an exception for you and bring you the violin.”

She nodded and agreed readily, “Well, then, I’ll perform with the piano first.”

She understood that the manager had his hands tied as well, and she didn’t blame him for

trying to make things hard for her.

Gregory hurried over to Tessa and wrapped his arms around her leg. He stared at her with

wide eyes and asked, “Mommy, are you going to play the piano? Can I play with you?”

He still remembered what it felt like to perform on the piano alongside Tessa, and he

would do anything to relive that.

Tessa couldn’t bring herself to turn the little boy down, so she glanced up at the restaurant

manager and inquired with a smile, “My son knows how to play the piano as well. May I

have him perform with me?”

The restaurant manager, as expected, had no qualms with that whatsoever.

Within minutes, Gregory happily led Tessa to the piano and climbed onto the stool. It

wasn’t long before the familiar and lively tune of Beethoven’s “Ode to Joy” filled the

restaurant.

Gregory and Tessa played wonderfully, and the performance was breathtaking. As soon as

the show ended, the crowd cheered and applauded heartily.

“She must be a professional! What a stunning performance!”

“And that little guy is quite the pianist for his tender age!”

The manager immediately knew what to do next when he heard the crowd’s approval of

the performance. He took the violin out of the glass cabinet as soon as Tessa and Gregory

came down from the stage.

A bright smile lit up Tessa’s face when the violin was handed to her. She carefully took it,

then lovingly inspected it over and over. At last, she asked tentatively, “May I play it?”

“Of course,” the manager said with a firm nod, having already seen her talent.

Tessa, oblivious to the manager’s and the crowd’s opinions, excitedly returned to the

stage with the precious violin. She only cared that she had the manager’s permission to

play it.

Meanwhile, the other customers were ecstatic to see that she had come back up on stage,

this time with the violin in hand. The piano performance earlier had left them wanting

more.

Tessa bowed, and the crowd politely applauded, though Gregory packed in much more

enthusiasm than everyone else in the room.

On the other hand, Nicholas gazed at his wife, who looked radiant with confidence, as she

took center stage.

Before long, a light and elegant melody resonated through the restaurant. Like a siren’s

song, the violin’s sound drowned out everyone’s thoughts and lured them into a

dreamscape.

When the song came to an end, Tessa still hadn’t gotten enough of the violin. She liked

how full and unique it sounded.

As for the crowd, they slowly snapped out of their reverie like they had just woken up from

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

an idyllic daydream and started clapping, breaking into raucous cheers. They enjoyed

every bit of Tessa’s performance.

“She’s got to be a professional musician!”

“You don’t say! I think everyone here can tell!”

“I personally find it astounding that a young woman like her has mastered two classical

instruments! She must be a prodigy.”

The crowd agreed with this statement wholeheartedly. Even the manager had to admit

that Tessa was quite a remarkable violinist.

He took in the crowd’s reaction and beamed as he walked up to Tessa. “Ma’am, you played

the violin beautifully. Your evening meal is in the house, but I wonder if you could play us

another song.” He grew shy toward the end, and the request came out somewhat meekly.

Tessa, however, did not mind at all. Nothing would give her more satisfaction at that

moment than to play the violin a second time, so she agreed.

The other customers overheard their conversation and immediately began applauding

wildly to welcome her back on stage.

Soon, Tessa lodged the violin between her collarbone and jawline and played a song she

had composed.

Unsurprisingly, she lured the crowd into yet another stupor.
