Chapter 31
Always Been Yours
To everyoneâs surprise, Nicholas had an icy gaze as he responded in a cold volce, âMiss Reinhart is only there for work, so It has nothing to do with her marital status. Whatâs wrong with itzu Yana was speechless the moment she heard those words whereas Roselle clenched her fists, feeling jealousy coursing through her veins.
However, he ignored everyoneâs comments and his strong figure abruptly turned around with a powerful aura to leave with Gregory and Tessa.
On the way back, Tessa looked at the dark scenery outside the window and sald, âUm⦠Please send me to Pinnacle Community.â
When Gregory heard that, he anxiously asked, âMiss Pretty Lady, are you going back? Arenât you staying in Dynasty Gardens?â
She gave a slight smile before apologizing, âIâm sorry. Although I have agreed to be your teacher, I canât live with you all the time. I still have my family to take care of and my own work to do, but I promise you that I will teach you every day. Okay?â
âOhâ¦â
The little boy sounded sad as he lowered his head, his face filled with disappointment. When she saw this, Tessa felt a little awful but still insisted on leaving. Although she had only attended a simple family dinner in the Sawyer Residence tonight, she clearly felt that there was a huge gap between herself and Gregory.
He was from the top wealthy family in the city while she was an ordinary person with no strong identity or background. Hence, they were completely from two different worlds. Since he liked her and wanted her to stay, the Sawyer Family reluctantly tolerated her appearance so as not to make him sad.
However, she was not stupid! How could a top wealthy family like the Sawyer Family allow an ordinary person to develop a deep relationship with Gregory? On top of that, she didnât want them to feel that she was someone with bad intentions.
Recalling the attitudes of Roselle and Yana in the Sawyer Residence earlier today, Tessa knew that the two of them clearly had impure intentions toward the Sawyer Family. So, after thinking about it, she decided to keep an appropriate distance from Gregory.
Thinking of this, Tessa no longer wavered and persuaded Gregory, âGreg, you have to be obedient. I am just going back to rest and we can meet again tomorrow, okay?â
Gregory still had his head down and looked depressed without responding.
She couldnât help but be a little worried, so she turned to Nicholas with the hope that he could persuade the boy. However, Nicholas only glanced at the little boy from the corner of his eye and responded in a frosty voice, âDonât pay any attention to him. He will come around by himself.â
After he finished, he ordered the assistant in front, âWeâll head to Pinnacle Community.â
The assistant nodded and the car turned around immediately. Their journey there was silent and soon, the car stopped at the entrance of Pinnacle Community. Before Tessa got out of the car, she said goodbye to Gregory. âSweetheart. Iâve arrived home and will head back first. Be good and Iâll see you tomorrow.â
Gregory was sulking, but he still nodded sullenly. Smiling gently, she then alighted from the vehicle and turned to walk off. The little boy immediately rolled down the car window, then put his two hands on it.
Looking at the back of Tessaâs figure with an unhappy face, he was so sad that his heart was about to shatter. I donât want to be separated from her, not even for a second!
Nicholas glanced at him and reminded lightly, âThatâs enough. Itâs not like youâll never see her again.
Drive.â
The car engine was restarted and it drove away thereafter. Gregory immediately withdrew his aggrieved expression before he stared at his father sullenly to complain, âItâs all your fault for not persuading Miss Pretty Lady to live with us!â
Nicholasâ expression was leisurely and indifferent. âWhy should I? Letting her be your teacher is already my limit. Gregory Sawyer, donât push your luck.â
