“President Sawyer, I’m sorry to interrupt. Maybe you aren’t aware of this, but spoiling the movie is a

shameful act, let alone when doing so in a cinema,” Tessa growled through gritte

He chuckled at her comment, which frustrated her even more. What’s so funny about it? It’s normal to

go along with the plot when watching a movie, so I shouldn’t be blamed for being unable to grasp the

plot, right? Besides, spoiling the movie affects the whole watching experience!

Gregory let out a soft chuckle as well. “Miss Tessa, don’t worry. You can ask me if you don’t understand

anything.”

Argh! I’ve had enough of the two of them! Don’t they know that the joy of watching movies ftes in not

requiring us to use our brain? They should at least be kind to the producer by being enlightened at the

very end of the movie and praising, “Oh, I see!” Isn’t that a better way to watch a movie?

However, Tessa broke into a smile the next instant. The father and son not only look alike, but are

equally intelligent as well. Could it be that this is the work of genetics? No, I shouldn’t be thinking about

all these when I’m watching a movie. I should be nice to the producers by watching the movie from the

beginning till the end. Fine, I’ll forget about the spoiler and pretend that I knew nothing at all. Hence,

she paid full attention to the deduction process, completely practicing the act of watching-without-

thinking throughout the movie.

However, Tessa still found the father-son duo funny when they were spoiling the movie. She chuckled

and shook her head, attempting to shake away the messy thoughts before she took the coffee by her

hand and sipped it.

When she returned the coffee to its original position, she suddenly felt a stare from Nicholas.

“What’s wrong?” she asked in puzzlement.

Nicholas calmly replied, “Nothing, but the coffee that you drank is mine.”

Tessa’s face flushed crimson when she heard that. l-Isn’t that the legendary indirect kiss? What did I

just do?! Come to think of it, Nicholas kissed me before, so an indirect kiss is insignificant compared to

that, right?

Nonetheless, with such thoughts in mind, she still turned to him awkwardly. “I’m sorry. It was

unintentional. If you mind, I’ll get you another cup of coffee.”

He casually responded, “There’s no need.”

“Alright.”

Tessa thought that Nicholas wouldn’t drink that cup of coffee since the movie was about to end, so she

continued to pay attention to the screen.

However, when she noticed what he was doing through the corner of her eye, she was rooted to her

spot at that instant.

She felt as if her head had exploded and she started screaming inwardly, H-He’s actually taking that

cup of coffee and sipping it as if nothing had happened? But I drank that before!

Upon seeing that, Tessa could no longer focus on the movie, nor could she force herself to respect the

producers by finishing the movie.

As she couldn’t focus at all during the second half of the movie, she had no idea if Conan’s deductions

and the details of the crime-solving was just like how Nicholas had explained.

Finally, after a long excruciating wait, the movie ended and they exited the cinema.

Nicholas carried Gregory in his arms while Tessa walked next to them. She suddenly realized that the

end of the movie also signified her parting with the child.

At that thought, she felt reluctant to leave.

Gregory, who realized this as well, was equally reluctant to part ways from her. He looked at Tessa

pitifully and asked, “Miss Tessa, are you going home now?”

She nodded. “Yes.”

A shred of disappointment flashed through Gregory’s eyes when he heard her confirmation. He looked

at Tessa sadly but this time, he didn’t stubbornly insist on her to go home with him.

Instead, he whispered, “Daddy, let’s send her back.”

Nicholas was slightly stunned but he still nodded. “Let’s go together.”

Truth was, Nicholas was a little shocked that Gregory didn’t act like before-crying and pleading for

Tessa to keep him company. It seemed like the latter had become a little more mature.

Nicholas was glad to see him acting like this. It was the right decision to bring him out today, he

thought, but he still felt a little distressed for the child. This little guy really adores Tessa, which is why

he chooses to respect her and not force her against her will by insisting that she stay with him.
