Chapter 1046
Always Been Yours
Chapter 1046 A Dream-like Night With that being said, Tessa wheeled around to inform Sofia and her seniors.
A group of people filled the table in a private lounge that night. With Marjorie leading them, the seniors raised their glasses to toast for Tessa. âCongratulations on finishing the recording, Tessa.â
âThank you.â She toasted with her glass of fruit juice. The smile on her face beamed wider as Nicholas, who was beside her, watched her.
Once she downed her drink, he placed a few pieces of fish on her plate. âHave some of these. Donât just drink.â
âOkay.â She nodded and could not smother the sweet smile on her face.
The others witnessed the whole scene and began to tease the couple. âTessa, stop being all lovey-
dovey. Weâre trying to enjoy the food here.â
âPoor me. I only had a glass of wine and Iâm already full before I can taste these amazing food.â
âMr. Simon, look at them calling us single by being all sweet and stuff!â
Red crawled onto Tessaâs cheeks as she stomped on her foot bashfully. âCut it out.â
Nicholas then pulled her into his arms protectively. âIf you donât wanna see this, please bring your partners along in the future.â
âYouâre poking us at the sore part, Mr. Sawyer. Donât you know that weâre all single?â grumbled Kellen, who put on a hurt expression.
Nicholas remained unbothered as he smiled. âThatâs none of my business. If you guys donât find someone for yourselves, you shouldnât blame us.â
âSo, is it our fault for being single? Man, that hurts. Guys, we should form an alliance and take Mr.
Sawyer down.â
The others played along, raising their wine glasses in an attempt to make Nicholas drunk. The latter gladly received the challenge.
Looking at how languid he was in the face of their attack, Tessa did not stop them. Instead, she turned her head to converse with her teachers.
Merriful laughter filled the room and before long, the seniors began to raise the while flag.
âI donât think I can drink anymore.â
Jenny was the first to give up before Daniela did. Even Marjorie gave in after holding onto it for a while longer.
In the end, Kellen was the only one left. However, he was no less better as his whole face was red. He was going to get drunk obviously.
On the other hand, Nicholasâ eyes were crystal clear without a smidgen of stupor.
Sofia found Kellenâs tenacity hilarious as she thwarted him. âEnough. Stop it. Tessa can take care of President Sawyer, but no one will do the same for you if youâre drunk.â
âItâs alright. I have my members. They outnumber them.â
To his bewilderment, the seniors were reluctant to take his side as soon as he said that. His face fell as he complained, âDonât you guys love me?â
Tessa burst into laughter at that. Even Sofia and Simon could not hold in their laughter anymore.
The gang finished their meal in mirth and the conversation was eventually steered to Tessaâs concert.
Sofia suddenly thought of something and smiled. âThis time, I invited your seniors to help you out with your performance. You better show what you got.â
âThank you, everyone. I will not let you guys down,â Tessa expressed her gratitude at the lovely surprise.
The others waved their hands. âNah. Itâs no big deal, but you gotta treat us to something nice if itâs a success.â
âAnd do not bring Mr. Sawyer along. Weâve had enough today,â the vengeful Kellen added.
Nicholas lifted his brow and wrapped his hand around her shoulder with a smile. âThat is out of the question.â
After returning home, Tessa was still in high spirits as her smile did not disappear from her face. It had been a while since Nicholas saw his wife being so happy. He hugged her and asked, âAre you that happy tonight?â
âI am. I really am. Itâs like a dream. I can finally have a concert and release my own album!â
