68 The Celebration

Some of the members in the orchestra were also relatively well-known musicians in Aalto. Although when practicing, they already had a pretty high expectation on this concert, especially on Symphony of Fate, the heated response from the noble audiences and the many famous musicians tonight was still a great surprise for them.

Victor was also very excited. He walked toward Rhine, his most intimate comrade in these days, and gave him a big hug, “Thank you so much, Mr. Rhine. You helped me with improving the harpsichord. You supported me all the time during the countless times of rehearsal. Without you, this concert could never be this perfect.”

Although Rhine remained quite silent all the evening, he was also very gratified by the success of the concert, “Thank you, Victor. It is my honor to work with you, Mr. Victor, and with Lucien as well.” He smiled.
