Chapter 818

Chapter 818 It’s for Her Sake Due to the overwhelming sorrow doused on her, Hathaway failed to sense that something was amiss before her eyes as well as the nuance in Rorion’s voice.

Nicholas returned home upon leaving the hospital. As soon as he stepped into the living room, he saw Tessa coming from the kitchen.

“You’re awake.” He smiled and came up to her after which he pulled her to the couch and had a seat together. “How are you feeling right now? Did you have a good sleep?”

“Yeah. I feel much better now.” Noticing the man’s concern, she smiled to indicate that she was totally fine.

He observed her complexion closely and realized that she indeed seemed much better than she was in the morning. Only then, his mind was put at ease.

“I wanna visit Miss Hathaway in the hospital,” she proposed abruptly.

However, it was not a surprise for Nicholas, for his wife had been a kind person who paid homage to the seniors. Nevertheless, he did not wish for her to visit Hathaway at the moment. “Actually, I’ve been to the hospital to see her.”

“Is she okay?” Although she was quite taken aback by his efficiency, Hathaway’s condition was of utmost priority at the moment.

“She’s doing fine, but it has taken a toll on her mentality,” he recounted succinctly and Tessa heaved a sigh of relief.

“Did she say when she’s going to meet me?”

“About that…” He hesitated, not knowing how to respond to that question.

The glint in her eyes simmered immediately. “She doesn’t want to see me, does she?”

It pained him to hear her disheartening voice, so he decided to tell her about the conversation he had with Hathaway. “I’ve terminated the contract between you and Miss Hathaway. So, you’re no longer one of her band members or her student.”

“I’m no longer her student…” She stared at Nicholas in a daze.

He nodded in response. “It is the best for both of you. I can tell that she doesn’t want to hate you, but she just can’t get over it.”

It was impossible for Tessa to not be despondent to hear that. With her downcast eyes and the sorrow, every part of her body was exuding a melancholic air.

Although it hurt him to see Tessa in such a state, he continued, “I know that you’re upset, but it’s not your fault for what has happened. If you insist on staying by her side, the onlookers will speak ill about you for sure. You’re my precious girl that I love so much. I can’t stand seeing you suffer like that.”

I see.

Tessa’s eyes twinkled upon realization. Although she was touched, the mixed feelings rendered her speechless.

Her silence prompted Nicholas to cup her cheeks and stared into her eyes with an intense yet worried gaze. “Are you blaming me for making decisions without a discussion?”

“No,” denied Tessa as she shook her head. Why would she blame him when he was doing it for her sake?

“Then, why aren’t you talking?” He zeroed in on her in concern. All and still, he was aware that his independent wife was like him; they had never liked it when someone else interfered with their personal matters.

Realizing his concern, Tessa replied solemnly, “I don’t blame you. You’re doing it for me. I wasn’t speaking because I was thinking what am I going to do after leaving the band.”

Nicholas breathed a sigh of relief as he had not expected her to be worried about that. “Honestly, you don’t have to stress about that. Everyone knows how capable you are. Even if you leave Hathaway, there will always be a place for you.”

Despite his heartening words, she had stirred feelings about it.

The next morning, the couple received a call from Hathaway right after they finished their breakfast.
