Chapter 346 At once, Nicholas received Tessa’s warning look. Since he did not want her to be embarrassed, he coughed lightly and explained, “I mean, I just arrived and haven’t paid my visit yet.” Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out of his mouth, Gregory yelled at him, “Daddy, you lied! You obviously stayed with Miss Tessa the last time you were on a business trip!” When Timothy heard Gregory’s words, his gaze instantly turned peculiar. “Tess, are you two…” Timothy bit back the words he wanted to say, but his gaze shifted back and forth between Tessa and Nicholas. The meaning of his action was self-evident. It felt that her head seemed to have exploded with a bang before her face and ears were in the shade of crimson red. “Tim, listen to my explanation. Although he stayed here for two days, he slept on the couch while I was resting in the room. Nothing happened between us.” Tessa tried to explain to Timothy. However, it didn’t have a great effect because it instead gave him the vibe that she wanted to cover up for something. An awkward Timothy said, “Tess, this is your private matter. You don’t need to explain it to me.” As she held Gregory in the silence, she felt extremely stuffy. It’s as clear as day that Tim has misunderstood. The furious Tessa then glared at Nicholas in anger. Her gaze seemed to be scolding him for ruining her innocent reputation in front of her brother. Nicholas! Look at what you’ve done!
Nicholas almost immediately understood the meaning behind Tessa’s gaze, after which he smirked at Tessa. It was so sinister as if it carried some kind of charm that enchanted people’s hearts. Looking at his smirk, she felt her heart racing while her breaths quickened. Suddenly, she felt that the temperature in the room was a little hot and stuffy while making her cheeks heat up. Fortunately, Gregory’s tender voice sounded at this time, saving Tessa from the abyss of misery. “Miss Tessa, are we still going to look around your house?”
“Sure, of course.” After saying this sentence, she took Gregory and fled the scene. Nicholas could not help but burst out laughing when he saw it. In the meantime, Timothy pursed his lips and said nothing because he knew this was Tessa and Nicholas’ way of getting along with each other. After looking around the house, they chatted for a while in the living room and the sky outside had turned dark unknowingly. “I’m a little tired. I want to head home to rest. President Sawyer, how about the both of you?” Timothy stood up and planned to leave. It was just that Gregory’s voice rang before Nicholas could respond. “Daddy, I don’t want to go back to the hotel with you. I want to stay the night with Miss Tessa here.” With that, Gregory hugged Tessa’s arm tightly and declared his determination through his actions. I don’t want to go back to the hotel with Daddy. How can a cold Daddy be comparable to a fragrant Miss Tessa? “Miss Tessa, is it okay if I spend the night with you? I promise I’ll be obedient.” Maybe it was because Gregory was afraid that Nicholas would reject his suggestion. Hence, he began to act like a spoiled child toward Tessa again. Tessa could not resist, so she agreed immediately. “Okay, you sure can.” “Miss Tessa, you’re the best!” A happy Gregory clapped his palms.. Nicholas laughed and turned to Timothy before he said, “Why don’t you head back to the hotel first? I have to deal with something else.” While speaking, he gave Tessa a meaningful look. . Following Nicholas’ gaze, Timothy saw Tessa’s cheeks flushed in embarrassment and instantly left after receiving the hint. – T. Only Tessa, Nicholas, and Gregory were left in the living room, which caused the atmosphere to be
slightly subtle. i ili In particular, Tessa noticed that Nicholas’ looks were dark and deep; it made her feel uncomfortable. “Well, it’s getting late. I’ll take Greg to take a bath.” She coughed lightly. Regardless of whether he wanted to speak or not, she carried Gregory and went to the bathroom. After a while, the faint sound of water came from the bathroom before it was followed by the sound of Gregory and Tessa laughing. As Nicholas listened to these voices, a tenderness that no one else had ever seen appeared across his face. At that moment, he felt that his life had never been more satisfying than it was now. After taking a bath, Gregory was still very excited and could not sleep at all. Maybe it was because he had not seen Tessa for so long that he stayed close to her to play in the living room.
