It wasn’t until the second half of the night, when Tessa could hardly keep her eyes open, that Nicholas
finally let her off.
As Tessa drifted off to sleep in a daze, she couldn’t help but complain inwardly. Seriously, I wonder what
gave this guy so much energy. He was exhausted, and he didn’t have much rest, right?
…
Unsurprisingly, when Tessa woke up the next day, her body ached all over as if it had been crushed by a
car. After resting for a moment, she started to get out of bed.
Nicholas woke up as well. “Morning,” he said, his deep voice husky with sleep as he sat up with bleary
eyes.
Just then, the blue quilt covering his body slipped down to reveal his muscular chest, which, coupled with
his delicate and charming features, made him look like a handsome young hunk.
At the sight of the scene, Tessa was totally stunned.
Seeing the lady being bewitched by his charms, Nicholas curled his lips in pleasure. He teased, “You’re
drooling.”
I’m drooling? Tessa subconsciously wiped her mouth, only to realize there was nothing on it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe man’s deep chuckle rang beside her again.
Tessa turned crimson all at once. “Nicholas Sawyer!” Annoyed and embarrassed, she glared at the man
on the bed. “I won’t talk to you anymore. I’ll go wash up,” she said. With that, she turned around and
dashed into the bathroom, looking as if she were running away from something.
The smile on Nicholas’ face deepened as he watched this.
Tessa had calmed down by the time she finished washing up later on. When she came out of the
bathroom, she saw that Nicholas had dressed himself in a suit with all the buttons on his white shirt
fastened. With his tall figure, he looked elegant and very stoic.
At the sight of the scene, Tessa was stunned once again. This time, however, she came to her senses
soon afterward. She hemmed and said, “I’ll go wake Greg up.” With that, she quickly stepped out of the
room.
Still, Nicholas noticed her crimson cheeks with his sharp eyes, and his lips curled into a charming smile.
The three of them had breakfast in the dining room after that. Nicholas asked during breakfast, “What’s
your plan today?”
Tessa briefly explained what she would be doing at the orchestra. “I’ve got to go back to the orchestra
later on. I still have some work to deal with today.”
Nicholas nodded. “I’ll drive you there later.”
Tessa didn’t turn him down.
Hearing their conversation, Gregory shouted animatedly, “I wanna go too! I want to see you off too, Miss
Tessa.”
“Okay, you can come along. Hurry up and eat.” Tessa held Gregory’s hand in hers affectionately before
putting some ravioli into his bowl.
Gregory immediately ate the ravioli. As a result, his cheeks were bulging with food, making him look as
cute as a hamster.
After having breakfast, Nicholas and Gregory sent Tessa to the hotel. When they arrived, Nicholas took
Tessa’s hand and said in a gentle voice, “Call me when you’re done in the afternoon. I’ll come pick you
up.”
Refusing to be outdone, Gregory stared at Tessa while blinking his starry eyes, saying, “I’ll come pick
you up too, Miss Tessa.”
Looking at the father and son before her, Tessa replied apologetically, “Not this evening, I’m afraid. I
have to take the orchestra’s members to dinner.”
Gregory’s chubby face was full of unconcealed disappointment. “Aw, how regrettable! It’s too bad that I
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcan’t have dinner with you, Miss Tessa.”
Nicholas was somewhat disappointed as well, but he didn’t mind it. He said with a faint smile, “In that
case, call me when you finish having dinner with them. I’ll come pick you up.”
Tessa nodded. After that, she said goodbye to them and got out of the car.
…
Meanwhile, in the Sawyer Residence…
When Stefania came downstairs and saw Hayley standing gracefully in the living room, her face broke
into an affable smile. “What brings you here, Hayley?”
“I’m off work today, and I thought you were alone at home, so I wanted to come and keep you company.”
Hayley assumed an obedient and considerate demeanor, which Stefania liked very much.
Stefania took Hayley to sit on the sofa. After they chatted for a while, Hayley pretended to be hesitating
whether to say something, which drew Stefania’s attention. “Hayley, is there something you’d like to tell
me?”
“Yes, there is.” Hayley glanced at Stefania with feigned hesitation. Then, as if she had made up her mind,
she suddenly leaned close to Stefania’s ear and whispered, “Mrs. Sawyer, I saw Tessa. She has come
back.”
