Nicholas nodded in agreement beside them. “Success won’t let down every person who works hard for
it.”
“Don’t lose heart, Miss Tessa,” Gregory chimed in, comforting Tessa like an adult.
Tessa was deeply moved as she looked at them. She nodded with a smile, saying, “Don’t worry. I won’t
be discouraged.”
After dinner, the four of them walked out of the restaurant together. As Timothy still had some unfinished
work to deal with at the office, he decided to go back first. Before he left, he looked at Tessa, whose
hand was being held by Nicholas. He asked, “Are you gonna stay at our place tonight?”
“Yeah—” Tessa replied, only to be interrupted by Nicholas before she could finish her sentence. “She’ll
go back to Dynasty Gardens with me,” he said.
Speechless, Timothy felt a little sad all of a sudden. At the same time, though, he felt he had been forced
to watch another public display of affection. However, in a show of understanding, he didn’t stop
Nicholas. After all, Nicholas and Tessa had been in a long-distance relationship shortly after they started
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtgoing steady, so they must’ve missed each other very much.
On the other hand, Tessa glared at Nicholas bashfully. Naturally, she could figure out his purpose for
having her stay with him. She insisted, “I want to go back to take a look. I haven’t been back for a long
time.”
Nicholas looked at her before his gaze finally shifted to Gregory next to them. “Greg, your Miss Tessa
isn’t going back with us tonight.”
Gregory panicked at once. Tugging at Tessa’s hand, he asked anxiously, “Miss Tessa, why aren’t you
going back with us? Could you please go back with us? I want you to keep me company and read me
bedtime stories.”
Tessa couldn’t bring herself to say no at all when Gregory acted cute and adorable in front of her.
Speechless, she looked at Nicholas as if to say, “How shameless of you to use your own son.”
Naturally, Nicholas understood what the look in her eyes meant. After giving her an affectionate smile, he
turned to speak to Timothy. “Just go back on your own. I’ll take care of your sister.”
Timothy nodded. After saying goodbye to Tessa and Gregory, he turned around and left.
Just then, Nicholas took Tessa’s hand in a natural manner, asking, “Should we go back right now, or
should we hang out around here?”
Just as Tessa was about to respond, Gregory’s cheerful voice rang beside her. “Miss Tessa, can we hang
out around here? It’s been a long time since we last hung out together.”
Naturally, upon hearing this, Tessa wouldn’t turn Gregory down. She and Nicholas held each of the little
boy’s hands in theirs as they strolled along the street like an ordinary family of three.
Gregory had a great time that night, and when they returned to Dynasty Gardens later on, he felt he
hadn’t had enough fun yet.
On the other hand, when Tessa saw the familiar and yet unfamiliar environment, her feelings were
somewhat complicated, though she also felt a bit nostalgic. Just as she was in a daze, Gregory suddenly
tugged at her sleeve, seemingly recalling something.
“What’s the matter?”
“Miss Tessa, let me show you your room,” Gregory said while dragging Tessa upstairs. As they were
heading upstairs, he said mysteriously, “Miss Tessa, let me tell you a little secret. After you left, my dad
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmforbade anyone from touching anything in your room, so your room has always stayed the same since
you left.”
Tessa was surprised.
When the two arrived at the room, Tessa found that it was indeed almost the same as when she had left
like Gregory had described. Upon seeing this, she was visibly moved.
Gregory’s sweet voice rang again. “Miss Tessa, can I sleep here with you tonight?”
Before Tessa could nod her assent, Nicholas’ clear, full voice sounded behind them. “Tessa won’t be
sleeping here anymore.”
“Miss Tessa won’t be sleeping here?” Gregory turned to look at the man while blinking his eyes in
puzzlement. “Where is she gonna sleep, then?”
With a faint smile on his lips, Nicholas walked over to them and pulled Tessa to his side. He said in a
gentle voice, “Tessa will be sleeping in the master bedroom from now on.” Then, he paused for a
moment and continued, “Also, stop pestering her to sleep with you from now on. You’re already a little
man, so you have to learn to sleep alone.”
Upon hearing this, Gregory immediately pouted his lips in displeasure.
