Chapter 266 She Owes You
Shortly after Elyse and Darren returned to the rehearsal room, Vicky walked in.
The moment people saw her, they quieted down.
They all knew that Elyse had taken the concertmaster position from Vicky, who was clearly upset. Nobody wanted to provoke
Vicky immediately approached Elyse, staring directly into her eyes.
Elyse wasn't sure why Vicky had e, but she didn't flinch.
The two locked eyes, both refusing to back down.
Finally, Vicky gave a wry smile and said, "Congratulations, Elyse."
Elyse remained silent, her demeanor only fueling Vicky's anger.
Vicky had endured a miserable weekend. Not only had Elyse taken the concertmaster position,
but Elyse had also been showered with praise.
The orchestra even wanted Elyse to be a concertmaster.
But there could never be dual concertmasters, and Vicky despised the situation!
"You should work hard to hold on to your spot," Vicky said coldly. za 6véDWom.cofIThis is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
"Don't worry, I will. No one will be able to replace me," Elyse responded, her eyes resolute and confident, which only made Vicky
feel worse.
"You've taken my place. You are quite proud of yourself, aren't you
Darren had heard enough and couldn't stay silent.
He stepped forward, his face stern. "Enough The manager will be here soon.
Vicky shot him a glare before storming off.
Unfazed, Darren walked a little further away with Elyse and whispered, "Keep your distance from her. You'll soon be the new concertmaster. Get ready for the tour."
Grinding her teeth, Elyse fumed. "She missed her performance because she got sick, but she blames me."
Darren grinned. Naturally, Vicky had to pin her failure on others. She would never admit her own mistakes.
At that moment, the manager walked in, ignoring the tension in the rehearsal room. "I have an announcement. Today, the TV station will interview us about the uping national tour, and we need to pick a few people for the interview."
She then listed a few names.
After finishing, Vicky asked in disbelief, "Why am I not on the list? Aren't I the concertmaster?"
The manager looked at Vicky, a bit embarrassed. "They want to focus on interviewing people who performed last week."
Vicky's expression darkened upon hearing this.
It meant they were only interested in talking to Elyse.
She shot Elyse a glare, scoffed, and stayed silent.
The manager moved on to organize the training session.
In the morning, all the members headed to the canteen for lunch. Afterward, they received a new announcement.
Elyse was now recognized as one of the dual concertmasters. The word spread quickly.
The members who used to shower Vicky with attention now flocked to Elyse instead.
Elyse felt uneasy being surrounded by so many people, as she'd never been this popular before.
Vicky, on the other hand, found herself utterly alone.
The shift was glaringly obvious.
"She's the orchestra's new star now. Everyone's going to try and impress her."
Rebekah crossed her arms as she approached Vicky.
"Why do you keep ing to me then? Shouldn't you go to her?" Vicky snapped, frustration
evident in her voice.

temporary. We've got time, and you know she's not as good as you."
Vicky's mood improved knowing she still had Rebekah's support. Now,
she took Rebekah more
Rebekah then asked, "Doesn't this bother you? You should be the concertmaster, but she stole
your spot. Now, they only want to interview her."
Of course, Vicky felt frustrated, but she didn't know what to do.
Even her instructor couldn't intervene, so she just watched from the
After a moment's thought, Rebekah leaned in closer and whispered, "I've got an idea."
Vicky looked at her with suspicion, trying to gauge her intentions.
Narrowing her eyes, Rebekah uttered softly, "If you agree, she'll lose the interview, and you'll take
her place. No one will know your doing."
Vicky's expression darkened. "Take her place? Are you implying I'm not as good as her?" Realizing her mistake, Rebekah quickly shook her head and clarified, "Last week, she replaced you. She owes you. This was supposed to be your interview, right?"
