Bound Hearts: My Vows to My Disabled Spouse

Chapter 284 The Orchestra Turmoil

Rebekah shrugged with a sense of righteousness and said, "Thanks to your actions, all of us suffer, our orchestra's reputation is now in doubt among netizens, questioning our taste and petence. Shouldn't you quit?"

Elyse's expression darkened with anger. "I've already stated, I can prove my innocence," she spat out.

Rebekah remained unconvinced that Elyse could resolve the issue.

Giving Elyse a disdainful once-over, she scoffed, "Good luck with that."

Elyse sensed Rebekah's opposition, evident in the provocative glint in her eyes, which only fueled her irritation.

Other orchestra members, who harbored their own grievances against Elyse, joined in, demanding answers. "Your actions have consequences for all of us. You owe us a solution or your

resignation," they asserted.

Rebekah chimed in with a smug smile, "See? It's not just me. We all agree you should quit."

Elyse glanced at them sternly. "Whether I leave or not is not for you to decide. I said I will prove my innocence, and I will," she declared firmly.

With that, she gathered her belongings and violin, exiting the lounge without another word.

Once Elyse exited, the people in the lounge immediately began speculating about whether Elyse would be dismissed.

Rebekah, with her arms folded, hummed a tune happily as she walked out. 'Among the crowd, Freddy observed the scene and discreetly followed her.

Meanwhile, Vicky went to Abram's office. After knocking and entering, she greeted cheerfully, "Mr. Ellsworth, have you decided on Elyse's punishment? Will she be removed from the tour?" Abram, standing by the appeared serious. "She must be removed from both the tour and the orchestra. There's no other option."

Surprised, Vicky asked, "But why?"

Abram's words implied his acknowledgment of Elyse's abilities.

Clasping her fists, Vicky asked, "Do you also believe that Elyse is better than me?"

Abram realized Vicky hadn't got him. He picked up his laptop and played a song for her. "Vicky,

what do you think of this song?"

Confused, Vicky replied, "It's just a song. I like it. Is it new?"

Abram clarified, "It's a new song by Mabel Lloyd that was taken down. I found it online. Can you pose something similar after listening to it?"

Vicky shook her head. "I'm afraid... I can't."

"This song was posed by Elyse. She's capable of it," Abram said, pausing the music.

Vicky was astonished. "Mr. Ellsworth, do you believe Elyse can pose such a song? How is that possible?" The melody was captivating.

Abram shrugged helplessly. "I understand your disbelief, but it's true. She used an unfinished song to demonstrate her abilities."

After a moment of silence, Abram placed a hand on Vicky's shoulder and said solemnly, "That's

why I can't allow her to remain in the orchestra. You are our orchestra's sole representative in the national contest. Do you now understand?"

Vicky was utterly bewildered.

Feeling humiliated, Vicky clung to the belief that she was far more skilled than Elyse. Abram gazed at Vicky, his prized apprentice. Despite Elyse's superior petence, he couldn't afford to give her any opportunities.

His determination was set on ensuring his Vicky stood out above all.

As Vicky left his office, she found solace in the garden. It wasn't long before Rebekah approached Upon seeing Rebekah, Vicky felt a surge of irritation. She asked sharply, "What brings you here?" With a smile, Rebekah leaned in. "I'm here to offer my congratulations."

Perplexed, Vicky asked, "Congratulations for what?"

Rebekah explained, "For soon being the sole talented violinist in the orchestra. Elyse, the

troublesome one, will be leaving. You'll reign supreme."

Vicky's gaze sharpened. Remembering that even her instructor had acknowledged Elyse's petence, Rebekah's words felt more like a humiliation.
