Chapter 243
Always Been Yours
Nevertheless, she still coaxed him. âGet some sleep.â
Under the comfort of her pats on his back, Gregory finally fell asleep, but his fair, tender hands were still firmly grasping Tessaâs clothes.
Helpless, Tessa lay down next to him, and it didnât take long before she fell asleep too.
After the three men had finished discussing work, they looked at the time and found that it was already past 12.00AM.
The men suddenly glanced at each other and smiled. They were all people who strived for excellence, and it was rare to meet people who they could converse with so well Nicholas got up and went to Tessaâs room to look for Gregory. As soon as he opened the door, he saw that Tessa was already in deep sleep while hugging the child.
The corners of Nicholasâ lips rose slightly when he looked at the two people sleeping peacefully, and he didnât wake them up.
After walking out of Tessaâs room, he closed the door, then said to Timothy in a low voice, âIâll let Gregory sleep here tonight. Iâll pick him up tomorrow.â
âPresident Sawyer, you donât have to trouble yourself. Itâs okay to stay for one night,â Timothy offered.
âItâs fine.â
With that, Nicholas picked up his belongings and strode out of the apartment.
Early the next morning, Nicholasâ car reappeared in Regal Gardens and he knocked on Tessaâs door.
Tessa was having breakfast with Gregory, and she froze when she saw Nicholas again.
Nicholas explained calmly, âIâm here to pick Gregory up.â
âPresident Sawyer, come in first. Young Master Gregory is still eating. Have you eaten yet? Would you like to grab a bite too?â Timothy called out from the table.
âAll right.â Nicholas wasnât reserved either. After changing his shoes, he sat down at the table.
Seeing that he was being so casual and humble, Tessa couldnât say anything, so she made him a cup of coffee and toasted a few slices of bread for him.
âThank you,â Nicholas replied in a low voice after accepting the food from Tessa.
After the meal, he wordlessly carried Gregory, who was reluctant to leave Tessaâs arms.
After getting in the car, Gregory was a little upset. âMiss Tessa has already let me sleep at her place.
Why did you have to pick me up? Daddy, if you hadnât come, I couldâve followed her around today, and you couldâve picked me up at night.â
Nicholas had long known that Gregory would be resentful, so he explained patiently, âMiss Tessaâs life isnât like it was before. She has her own job now. If you follow her like this, she canât take care of you, and she wonât be able to concentrate on her work. This way, wonât she want to avoid you even more?â
âBut, we finally got to see Miss Tessa. I donât know when Iâll see her again. I just donât want to leaveâ¦â
Gregory was still a little upset.
As soon as he woke up today, he saw that he was still in Tessaâs room, wearing her clothes and sleeping in her bed. She even fed him and spoke softly to him. Undoubtedly, it made him extremely happy He hadnât been happy for long before his father came to take him away, which left no room for discussion. It was so irritating.
Nicholasâ lips curled up. âThere will be other chances.â
Gregory didnât believe him. Previously, he said Gregory would see her again, but so much time had passed to the point where Tessa was almost ignoring him. âI donât believe you, unless I head there again tonight.â
âOkay,â Nicholas answered.
Sure enough, that night, Nicholas showed up at Tessaâs house with Gregory again. The reason he gave was that Gregory hadnât mastered his computer skills yet, and he and Timothy still had work to discuss.
Although Tessa was a little suspicious, they had already shown up, so she couldnât chase them out of the house. She could only let them in to take the so-called computer lessons and discuss work.
Then, the next day, the third day, and the fourth dayâ¦
The father and son used the same excuse to visit their house every night.
Kieran found that his brother seemed to be acting a little differently lately. These days, his temper had improved a lot, and even the employees who made mistakes wouldnât be scolded, but would at most be asked to redo the work instead.
As the presidentâs mood had changed for the better, the working atmosphere of the entire company was more relaxed now, and everyone was all smiles.
