Chapter 1019 Ninety Points “Are you not in a position to reveal it or are you afraid of causing a scandal?” “So that means that your orchestra is admitting to the scandal, and Sofia really is protecting the culprit.”

The surrounding media relentlessly fired one sharp question after another at the person in charge, who had no choice but to reply to some questions at his discretion.

“The accident occurred during Group Six’s performance on stage is indeed premeditated, and we have already requested the police to take part in the investigation. However, we don’t have any leads, and we are not trying to cover for the culprit.”

Because of his words, the incident began trending on the internet. Meanwhile, although Tessa had heard about this incident, she did not pay much attention to it as all of her focus was now on recording her composition. After warming up with the first two pieces, she was in good shape as she recorded the third piece, which turned out smoothly.

Simon complimented her with relief, “At first, I was worried that you would be affected by the net, but now it seems that I was worrying too much.”

In the evening, she finished recording the third piece and placed her violin down before walking out of the recording studio expectantly, asking, “Mr. Simon, how do you feel about this piece?”

“Not bad. This piece is perfect in terms of both the playing style and the atmosphere.” Simon praised her generously without any hesitation, and his words elicited a delighted smile to bloom on Tessa’s face.

Later, as if she thought of something, her almond eyes shone radiantly as she looked at him. “In that case, if you were to give a score, how many points would you give, Mr. Simon?”

Simon pretended to ponder over her question before he answered, “Probably ninety points.” “Ninety?

But you said that it was perfect. Shouldn’t it be a hundred?” Tessa blinked, wondering if she had misheard.

He smiled smugly. “I was worried you might get arrogant if I gave you full marks, so I took ten points off.”

Tessa was both amused and wry, but she was still elated. After all, in other words, it still meant that her piece scored full marks in Simon’s heart. At that thought, she grew a little emotional. It was her first time getting full marks from him.

“Mr. Simon, just give me a hundred. Don’t worry, I’ll never be arrogant.”

She thought the score was commemorative, so she hoped he would give her a new score. However, no matter how she begged and whined, Simon simply teased her and did not change his decision.

Just as the two were laughing and fooling around, Sofia entered the room. She had finished handling the orchestra’s affairs and had taken time to check on the results of Tessa’s new piece.

“What are you talking about? You look happy.” Seeing this, Tessa immediately tattled to her. “Miss Sofia, Mr. Simon said that my piece was perfect, but he only gave me ninety points.”

At her words, Sofia raised her eyebrows and turned to look at Simon. The man in question sat calmly in his chair and said with a laugh, “Like I said, you might get arrogant if I gave you full marks. I took ten points off so that you’ll strive to do better next time.”

Tessa felt upset, while Sofia was a little surprised. After all, it showed that the piece was excellent for Simon to give it a full score. “Play the recording for me. I want to hear how it went.”

As she spoke, she had already sat down in a chair nearby and gestured for Simon to play the recorded piece. He nodded and quickly put on the recording they had completed earlier. Sofia closed her eyes and listened extremely intently.

At the end of the song, she placed the headphones down, somewhat surprised, and complimented, “It’s perfect. I can’t even find a flaw in this piece. It is indeed worth a hundred points.”

Hearing this, Tessa smiled even more brightly, not forgetting to cast a smug look at Simon, who shook his head with laughter at her childishness, his face full of affection.

The three talked about the album for a while, and the topic inadvertently changed to what was happening on the internet. “I saw the news on the internet today. Has the orchestra been affected in any way? If you need help, just tell us.”
