Chapter 756
Always Been Yours
Chapter 756 Scottâs Solo Recital Kathleenâs failed attempt at winning Scott over got her in a horrible mood, and she only felt even more resentful when she saw Tessa, thinking this woman was the bane of her existence. After all, she was well aware that Scott had a thing for Tessa.
At the same time, it got her even more bewildered. She was clearly more outstanding than Tessa, but no matter who, their gazes would only ever land on that b*tch.
âWhat does that b*tch have that I donât?!â Kathleenâs malicious gaze at Tessa grew increasingly hostile as she became angrier by the second.
Tessa naturally sensed Kathleenâs malice, but she turned a blind eye to it.
That night, dinner was ready by the time she arrived home after rehearsal.
While the family of three enjoyed a pleasant meal, Gregory related everything he did during the day to Tessa, who listened attentively with a smile and praised him every now and then. âThatâs awesome, sweetheart.â
After dinner, the family of three took a stroll in the garden instead of retiring for the night.
Tessa and Gregoryâs laughter reverberated through the garden as the two messed around.
Meanwhile, Nicholas stood aside and beamed as he watched with a gaze filled with nothing but affection and adoration.
Later, when they got tired, a servant escorted Gregory back to his room for a quick shower before bed.
On the other hand, Tessa and Nicholas snuggled up in bed after a quick shower.
Scottâs solo recital suddenly popped into Tessaâs head, and she brought it up with Nicholas. âScott came to the orchestra today, and he invited me, Miss Hathaway, and the others to watch his solo recital.â
Nicholas didnât give too much thought to it and nodded. âIn that case, Iâll drive you there. Just give me a call when itâs almost over, and Iâll pick you up.â
Tessaâs heart swelled up with love upon hearing his words. âYouâre the best, hubby.â
While speaking, she leaned over and gave him a peck on the cheek.
After recovering from his split-second stump, Nicholas clasped Tessaâs waist and leaned in as he whispered, âSay that again.â
Clearly, he loved the term of endearment.
Tessa blushed, having a hard time repeating it since she had blurted out those words without realizing it.
Nicholas naturally knew she was abashed, and he inched closer, urging her with his deep, magnetic voice. He said, âOne more time, hmm?â
However, she shook her head, her face now crimson.
Seeing how abashed his love was, he leaned in for a kiss, enamored.
She returned the kiss with closed eyes, and the two shared a passionate moment.
However, just as things were getting heated, he suddenly pushed her aside and headed into the bathroom again.
They couldnât do anything since she was pregnant, and because of that, Nicholas suffered almost every day.

The following day, Nicholas picked Tessa up for dinner after her rehearsal before sending her to the theater entrance.
As it was approaching show time, many people had already arrived.
Nicholas couldnât help enjoining Tessa with worry upon seeing the crowd. âBe careful when you go in. Donât let them bump into you.â
âDonât worry. Iâm taking the VIP lane. It wonât be crowded,â said Tessa as she unbuckled her seatbelt. âIâm going in now. Iâll call you later, okay?â
He nodded as he saw his beloved out of the car.
After getting out of the vehicle, Tessa headed straight for the VIP lane only to be stopped by a young man in a suit. âGood evening, Miss Reinhart. Iâm Mr. Brooksâ assistant, and Mr. Brooks has asked me to wait for you out here.â
Tessa was somewhat surprised, for she hadnât expected Scott to send someone to escort her.
After giving her thanks, she followed the assistant inside and found that Hathaway and Kathleen had already arrived.
âMiss Hathaway, you guys are here early,â she greeted the mother and daughter with a smile.
âWell, we didnât have anything better to do, so we came early,â Hathaway replied with a smile as she beckoned Tessa to sit beside her.
Kathleenâs hatred for Tessa grew as she watched the affectionate exchange. However, she said nothing.
