Chapter 178

Gregory broke into a smile. Before Tessa held her hand out, he beat her to it by taking her hand and

grinning at her. “You are so kind,”

Tessa couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

No matter how confident she had sounded about her life without them, she still couldn’t bring herself to

be harsh toward the little guy when facing him.

She could never reject the kid’s request and couldn’t bear to see him upset.

“Daddy’s car is over there!” Holding Tessa’s hand, Gregory walked toward Nicholas’ car. The child kept

swinging her hand the entire time and he said, “Miss Tessa, I haven’t met you for days! Do you know

that I really missed you?”

After he said that, he nuzzled his face against her hand, looking content.

Upon seeing how excited he was, Tessa twitched the corner of her lips without saying a word.

As a matter of fact, she didn’t know how she should face the kid and his father. What she had said in

the hospital that time had been too harsh, and she would be eating her words if she were to give

Gregory a glimmer of hope at that moment.

At present, Tessa’s head was in such a mess that she had lost the ability to even think.

She didn’t know how she should bring it up and what she should say after that; all she could do was to

remain silent to ease the awkwardness.

When she had entered the car, Nicholas looked at her and asked, “Where do you want to go?”

He posed the question before Tessa managed to return to her senses. After a moment of silence, she

replied, “Uh… anywhere is fine.”

It was a casual question that Nicholas didn’t expect an answer to, as he had noticed that Tessa

seemed to be in a daze. Therefore, he turned to Gregory and asked. “How about you? Where do you

want to go?”

Gregory paused for a moment and responded, “Can we go and watch a movie?” He then shyly added

with pursed lips, “I heard from Uncle Kieran that the movie of my favorite anime-Detective Conan-is in

theaters now. I have never watched a movie together with Daddy and… Mommy. I want to know what it

feels like.” After he said that, he timidly glanced at Tessa.

Tessa felt a lump in her throat when she saw him this way.

Gregory had always been a bubbly and adorable kid who never failed to charm the people around him.

However, he had never mentioned anything like that. Now that he had mentioned this, Tessa really

wished to embrace and comfort him.

Nicholas was equally stunned as well as he had never been to that sort of place, so he never expected

that his son would make such a request.

Nonetheless, it was a rather minor request, so he wasn’t against the idea of three of them watching a

movie together.

Yet, the main concern at that moment was what Tessa thought about that. He turned to her and asked,

“Do you want to go? You don’t have to force yourself if you don’t.”

Tessa initially wanted to reject the idea as she was still concerned about what she had said at the

hospital, but when she turned to her side and saw Gregory eagerly looking at her with pleading eyes,

she found the words that she was about to utter just couldn’t leave her mouth.

After a moment of hesitation, she nodded and agreed. “Sure.”

Gregory’s eyes instantly lit up, shining as bright as a star as he looked at Tessa. “Thank you, Miss

Tessa. You are the best!”

Tessa smiled and reached out her hand to ruffle his hair.

At about 9.00 PM, Nicholas, Tessa and Gregory arrived at the cinema.

When they entered the premises, Nicholas found that it was rather noisy with a lot of people inside,

which made him frown subconsciously.

Even so, since he had agreed to bring Gregory here, he couldn’t break his promise of watching a movie

with his son.

As Nicholas had never bought a movie ticket before this, he didn’t know how to do so. His gaze was

fixed on the long queue beside him, which seemed to lead to a self-service ticketing machine.

With his brows knitted, he stared at the queue, as though he was carefully observing the process of

purchasing a movie ticket.

Tessa, who took notice of how Nicholas kept staring at the machine, was puzzled at first, but the

reason behind his strange behavior suddenly dawned upon her. “President Sawyer, could it be that you

have never been to a cinema before?” she couldn’t help but ask.

Nicholas pressed his lips and nodded, as he had nothing to hide. “Yes.”

As the first in line to succeed the Sawyer Group, his family had been raising him with elite education

since he was little.

Since Nicholas was in elementary school, he had had endless lessons every day.
