Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas)

Chapter 363

Chapter 363 Holiday Ends

After they had breakfast, they disembarked the ship. While they were on their way back, Tessa looked at

Gregory, who was playing with Timothy. She was reminded of what happened back on the ship, and she

huddled closer to Nicholas. “How did you cheer him up earlier?”

Nicholas glanced at her, and he smiled. “I told him it might be possible for you to stay forever if you get

pregnant with my baby.”

Tessa looked horrified. He actually lied to his son? And who said I’m going to have his baby?

The car drove along the road and eventually came to Vienna’s airport. The tearful goodbye came at the

gates, and Tessa didn’t want to say goodbye.

Gregory was crying and hiccuping. “I don’t want to go, Miss Tessa. I don’t want to leave you.”

“Neither do I.” She teared up as well. “But listen to me. This separation is only for a better reunion. Once

we have time, I’ll ask your father to bring you over, alright?”

“That’s not a good idea.” He puckered his lips, sulking.

Tessa smiled and continued to coax him. “You’re a good boy, right? I know you are.”

Gregory had no choice but to nod, and he rubbed against Tessa’s chest. He sniffled, saying, “I’ll be going

then. Do always think about me. I’ll always think about you too.”

“I’ll miss you.” Tessa kissed his forehead and put him down. She was worried she might take him home if

she kept holding him.

Timothy gave her a tissue. He had a lot to say to her, but in the end, he only said, “Take care of yourself.

I’ll come to see you when I have time.”

Tessa nodded, and she wiped her tears away. “You too. Remember to have your meals. Don’t skip them

just because you’re busy. And remember to work on your studies too.”

Timothy nodded. Worried, he said, “Don’t make me sound like the only kid here. You should be careful

too. Don’t get into any trouble. If anyone gives you trouble, tell me. I can protect you, and don’t scrimp

anymore. I can make money now.” Eventually, he started nagging and telling her about everything she

should look out for.

Tessa was feeling sad a moment ago, but her brother managed to make her laugh. “Okay, okay, I got it.

Keep nagging and people will think you’re my father,” she interrupted. Then she looked at Nicholas, who

was quiet. “You take care of yourself too. Don’t skip your meals. Gregory will keep an eye on you. And I’ll

miss you.” She pounced at him shyly and gave him a hug.

“I’ll miss you too.” He said nothing more, though he bent down and kissed her forehead.

It was time for them to leave, and she watched them walk through the gates. Even after they were gone,

Tessa still stood around for a long time. She felt empty after they left.

When she left the airport, Tessa took a deep breath and decided to do something for the day, or her

mood would turn really sour. She called her teacher and canceled her leave, then she went home and

took the violin—named ‘Nirvana’—that her brother gave her before going to the orchestra.

Tessa knocked on the door of the practice room and walked in. Hathaway looked at her, smiling lovingly.

“You’re finally back.”

“Sorry for taking a few days’ leave, Miss Hathaway.” She smiled apologetically.

“Don’t be. Your family came to see you, so of course you would need to spend some time with them.”
