Chapter 311

“But, since you’re here, I think you should really get the full experience of my alma mater. Remember, this is a

happy experience, not a sad one.”

Tessa was taken aback for a moment then she understood that Scott was just trying to cheer her up. At that

moment, she was touched and warmed by his kindness.

Afterward, the two of them took a detailed tour of the university. Scott was a conscientious tour guide, as he

brought her to all the interesting spots in the school. He didn’t even miss out on the school’s grove, at which they

interrupted many couples from having a good time.

After leaving the school, he continued to bring her around to visit many famous sights in Vienna. Perhaps it was

because of his remarks at the beginning of their adventure; it gave her the chance to let down her hair and actually

have fun as she thoroughly enjoyed her day. She felt so great that the smile on her face never disappeared

In the evening, Scott brought Tessa to a local bar with a particularly artistic atmosphere for a drink. Unlike the noisy

environment at the other bars, this place was relatively quiet. It was simply the best portrayal of leisure as they

enjoyed their time under the yellowish lights, soothing music, and private guest tables.

“I never knew a bar could have such an atmosphere.” Tessa curiously surveyed her surroundings, and her gaze

slowly filled with love for this bar.

Scott smiled and said, “If you like it, you could visit more often in the future.”

Tessa nodded and continued drinking with Scott.

As time flew by, it was late at night before they knew it. Scott glanced at the tipsy girl opposite him, and his gaze

was particularly gentle. “It’s late. Let me take you back.”

“Is it late?” Tessa dazedly checked her phone for the time. “It’s almost midnight. We should really get going.”

She staggered as she stood up, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help her. After they settled the bill, the two of

them walked out of the bar.

“We’re here. Please have a safe trip back. Thank you for today. I truly appreciate it. I’ll treat you to a drink some

other day.”

As they arrived at the residence’s entrance, Tessa stumbled out of the car. The fun she had today, coupled with the

alcohol in her system, made her feel like she was floating on cloud nine.

Scott was uneasy as he watched Tessa, who was standing outside the car window, swaying left and right due to the

alcohol in her system. So, he unbuckled his seat belt, opened the car door, and walked over to her. “Which floor are

you on? I’ll escort you home.”

“No, no, it’s fine. I can go back on my own. You should hurry back.” Tessa broke away from Scott and stood firmly to

the side, looking much soberer.

Upon noticing that her eyes didn’t look unfocused or too wasted, he didn’t force the matter. Tessa watched as the

car gradually disappeared down the road, then she turned and was about to walk back to her unit.

She looked around her room and found that it was dark, and it was evident that no one was in it.

Click! The originally dark living room lit up when she turned on the lights.

Then, she closed the door and walked into the living room, only to find that Nicholas had cleared up the dining

table. She didn’t see his clothes on the sofa either. She pursed her lips and sat on the sofa as she stared at the

white wall in front of her, her vision unfocused.

There was silence all around, the only sound being the occasional noise of car engines from the cars passing by

outside the window.

After a certain period of time, Tessa recovered from her stupor. She breathed a sigh of relief as she saw the empty

and silent room. But she didn’t manage to savor that relief until a sharp pain stabbed through her heart.

She couldn’t help but reach up to place her hand on her heart, feeling discomfort in that area, as if something was

missing, leaving it empty.

“Isn’t this good? There’s nothing to be sad about,” Tessa comforted herself.

After a while, perhaps her self-hypnosis had an effect, as she didn’t feel so uncomfortable anymore. So, she

decided to wash up in her room. However, she hadn’t even taken two steps before a tall, dark figure stepped out

from the balcony, to her surprise.

Nicholas came from behind and trapped Tessa up against the wall. Then, a voice

containing slight anger sounded in Tessa’s ears. “That man must be the real reason you’re driving me away, am I

right?!”

It turned out that Nicholas, who had been standing on the balcony, saw Scott sending Tessa back. He grew irritated

as he thought she might have been with that man the entire day, so his remarks were barbed.
