Chapter 136 Trevor gave Tessa a gentle pat and comforted her.

“Thanks, Mr. Oswald, for coming over to visit me today. Be careful when you’re on the road.” Tessa

nodded and thanked him,

Nodding back at Tessa, Trevor then got up and left.

As soon as Trevor opened the door, a tall figure in front startled him, and he nearly screamed.

That tall figure was Nicholas. As he stood at the door, he nodded at Trevor and made a ‘shh’ gesture.

Understanding Nicholas’ gesture, Trevor took another glance inside the ward and saw that Tessa and

Gregory weren’t aware. So, he immediately closed the door and greeted Nicholas, “Good day, President

Sawyer.”

Once more, Nicholas nodded. Then, he turned his body sideways, allowing Trevor to go first.

After taking two steps, Trevor stopped. Later, he turned his head back to look at Nicholas, hesitating.

“President Sawyer…”

“Speak,” Nicholas ordered.

All of a sudden, Trevor was clueless on where to start his sentences, and he went silent for a while.

Upon seeing that, Nicholas simply frowned and did not rush Trevor.

After a while, Trevor said, “President Sawyer, I have a presumptuous request. I hope you can help me

encourage and enlighten Tessa. I know her. She’s a girl who practices very seriously on a daily basis.

While others pour in their 100 percent, she pours in her 120 percent. I know because I have noticed her

effort. We all feel very sorry that this happened. This would have been her first orchestra performance as

an assistant concertmaster, and not to mention, it’s a large-scale event. Now that she can’t participate in

it, I fear it will hit her hard. Tessa has always taken things too seriously. I’m afraid she won’t be able to

regain herself for a while…”

Upon hearing Trevor’s words, Nicholas remembered Tessa was crying secretly under the blanket by

herself last night. Therefore, he understood what Trevor meant.

Accepting Trevor’s request, Nicholas nodded slightly. “Sure, I’ll help you.”

“Then, I shall leave her in your care. There are some other matters that I need to attend to in the

orchestra, so I’ll take my leave first.” Trevor bowed to Nicholas, feeling grateful.

Not knowing the situation outside, Tessa sat on the bed and recalled her conversations with Trevor. She

was still somewhat unwilling to accept what was going on.

The anger in Tessa’s heart stuffed up, making her a little overwhelmed. Right now, she had no idea what

she was going to do in the future.

Seeing that Tessa was in a trance, Gregory became worried too. He understood most of the matters

discussed by Nicholas and Tessa. Also, Gregory knew that Tessa probably could not play the violin

anymore. Realizing that fact, he became upset.

“Miss Tessa, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. If I hadn’t been playful and disobediently ran out of the orchestra,

then you wouldn’t have come to find me, and you wouldn’t have gotten hurt.” Gregory’s eyes turned red

as he said that, and he looked like he was about to cry.

Upon seeing this, Tessa felt her heart soften. Not bothering much about her own grief, she raised her

uninjured arm and touched the top of Gregory’s head.

“Oh, silly boy. You have nothing to do with this, so you don’t have to apologize. I saved you out of my

own will, and I don’t regret it at all. Despite knowing things would turn out this way, I’d still save you if

given another chance. I would rather injure myself than see something bad happen to you. Don’t worry.

I’m strong, and I’ll be fine after resting for a few more days. Soon, I will be able to hold you in my arms

again.”

Meanwhile, outside the ward, Nicholas was about to open the door but stopped after he heard that. For

some reason, Tessa’s words tugged at his heartstrings.

“Okay, Sweetheart. I’m really fine. I didn’t cry, so why are you crying? There, there, my cry baby. Don’t

cry anymore. If you cry again, then I’ll cry too.”

Looking at the crying Gregory, Tessa felt slightly helpless for a while, yet she did not know whether to

laugh or cry:

This child is superbly adorable. His original doll-like appearance is even more adorable now with his

teary eyes looking dewy. He just makes me want to pinch his cheeks.

In fact, Tessa really did so. With her delicate fingers, she pinched Gregory’s face.

Feeling Tessa pinch him, Gregory was stunned for a moment. He forgot to cry and just let Tessa pinch

and rub his face in a daze.

Tessa looked at him and could not help but chuckle.

Although he did not know what Tessa was laughing about, Gregory stopped crying after he saw Tessa

chuckling. Then, he obediently wiped his tears away and giggled happily.

At this moment, the door of the ward was pushed open. In came Nicholas, who had changed into a tailor-

fitted suit.
