Chapter 873 Tessa’s Baby

“My belly is still flat. What can you even see?” Even though Tessa said that, she still lifted her clothes. As

she was of a thin body stature, her stomach was flat even though the baby was already three months

old. No one would be able to tell that she was pregnant looking at her like this.

Looking at Tessa’s flat stomach in slight disappointment, Nicholas said, “When will she get bigger?”

Tessa was stunned by Nicholas’ question, for the images that she had once buried deep inside her mind

came floating up. In truth, she was with a child a few years ago. The thought of that child immediately

had Tessa turning gloomy and depressed.

Naturally, Nicholas noticed Tessa’s change in mood and knew what plagued her mind. However, he knew

that this wasn’t the time for her to come clean with her past, as doing so meant that Tessa could no

longer pursue her dreams without any distractions as she was doing now. With such thoughts in mind,

Nicholas spoke out to interrupt Tessa’s thoughts. “Why did you suddenly stop talking?”

“I was thinking how many months it will take for my belly to grow.” Coming back from her thoughts, Tessa

felt guilty, as she lied to Nicholas for the first time.

Pretending not to have noticed the change in Tessa, Nicholas asked, “So, how many months do you

think it will take?”

PlayvolumeAd “I’m guessing it would probably be around the fourth month for my pregnancy to show.”

The last time she was pregnant, it took about four months for her pregnancy to show, so she thought it

would be the same this time as well.

Noticing that Tessa was not as enthusiastic as she was before, he knew that Tessa still felt depressed

over her past, so he thought of ways to divert her attention. “If it’s the fourth month, then it’s almost time.

Do you think the baby will start interacting with us? Should I start educating the baby by then?” he asked

ignorantly with full anticipation for the baby’s arrival.

Sure enough, Nicholas was successful in distracting Tessa from her thoughts. Looking at his wife who

had her smile back, he heaved a sigh of relief. “It’s getting late. You should get some sleep now.” He

coaxed Tessa to bed.

Tessa agreed with a nod, then ended their video call for tonight.

…

Elsewhere, Nicholas placed his phone down and was about to continue working when a knock came

from the door.

“Nicholas, how about going back home and having dinner with our parents tonight?” Kieran asked as

soon as he entered the room.

Nicholas agreed with a nod.

That evening, in the dining room of the Sawyers’ mansion.

The two brothers accompanied their parents for dinner. As Kieran was the mood maker for the evening,

the atmosphere wasn’t so bad.

During the meal, Stefania suddenly said, “It’ll be Christmas soon. Will Miss Reinhart be joining us then?

We should invite her over to have dinner.”

Nicholas paused upon hearing his mother’s suggestion and inadvertently smiled. He knew that his

mother had accepted Tessa into the family, but… “We should forget about it. Since she’s pregnant now,

it’s better for her to stay put. Instead, I’ll be going to them to spend Christmas together.”

Stefania became unhappy for a brief moment after hearing Tessa wouldn’t be back for Christmas, as that

meant that she wouldn’t be able to see Gregory. But what Nicholas said made sense, as it would be

tiring for a pregnant woman to travel back and forth. In the end, she couldn’t make any retort for the sake

of the baby in Tessa. “Then you should take good care of the two of them when you’re there with them.”

Understanding his mother’s instructions, Nicholas nodded.

Just then, Tobias remembered that Nicholas had quarreled with Remus, so he said, “When you have

time later, you should go back to Sawyer Residence and visit your grandpa.” He knew that the two of

them were still piqued with each other ever since their argument, so he couldn’t help but nag at Nicholas.

“No matter what your grandpa has done, know that he has only done so for the sake of the family, as

well as your own. So, please don’t argue with him. Since his mindset is of the older generation, you’ll

need to give him time to accept it.”

Although Nicholas said nothing, he still acquiesced to the matter.

After the meal, Nicholas asked Edward to send two cans of quality tea leaves to him before he took them

along to visit Remus.
