Chapter 906
Always Been Yours
Chapter 906 Can You Lend a Hand?
With that shy little guy in her hands, Tessa was in such a good mood that her eyes were curved into a crescent. Meanwhile, Nicholas stood aside quietly, looking at the interaction of this mother and son with strong affection in his eyes.
â¦
The next morning, after the family of three had their breakfast, Tessa received an invitation call from Linville.
âTessa, thereâs a fashion show this afternoon at Century Square. Do you want to come with me?â
âSure. Letâs meet at Century Square in the afternoon.â Tessa hung up the phone after she agreed on a time with Linville.
Seeing that, Nicholas asked, âYouâre going out in the afternoon?â
âLinville invited me to a fashion show.â She nodded and then tilted her head to look at him before asking, âAre you coming with me?â
After some thought, he shook his head and replied, âI donât think Iâm going. You can ask Greg to go with you.â
He didnât have much interest in fashion events, so he turned around and told Gregory, âProtect your mommy, okay? Donât let anything happen to Mommy and your baby sister.â
âDonât worry, Daddy. I will protect Mommy and the baby for sure.â Gregory patted hard on his little chest and promised Nicholas.
When Tessa saw that, she felt as though her heart was stuffed with cotton candy, so warm and sweet.
For the next few days, Linville brought Tessa along to attend several fashion shows. Nicholas didnât go with them, but he made a deal on business with Warner.
After they had visited several places for a week, when they were having dinner that day, Nicholas suddenly said, âWe need to go back after two days.â
The day before they left, Tessa started to pack up their things, and Gregory was helping her sensibly. Just then, her phone on the table started ringing. It was a call from Linville.
âTessa, can you stay for two more days? I have an urgent matter that needs your help.â
âWhatâs wrong?â Tessa asked with surprise.
Although it had not been a long time since she knew Linville, after spending a few days together, she still felt that she knew what kind of person Linville was.
Linville was an independent person, so she wouldnât ask other people for help easily. Yet, she was asking for her help now, so it was obvious that it was a serious matter.
âSo, the thing is that I have a good friend whoâs going to hold a fashion show soon. She had actually invited a famous musician to perform at the show, but the musician reneged on his promise because of an emergency work arrangement, bringing this show into big trouble at the last minute.â
Linville briefly explained everything on the phone. âThis is my bestieâs first show. Itâs really important. Youâre the only person I can think of who can help now. Can you come over and lend a hand to my bestie? â
âOkay.â After thinking for a moment, she agreed to Linville. Linville has been such a sweetheart so far, so I must help her out!
Hearing that Tessa agreed, Linville heaved a sigh of relief on the phone.
Of course, she knew that Tessa had agreed for her sake. That was why she was very thankful to Tessa. âI owe you one for this. Just tell me if you need any help in the future.â
âItâs okay. Itâs just a small matter.â Tessa didnât really mind it.
When Linville heard that, her good impression of Tessa rose significantly. So, she said frankly, âIâll pick you up now, and then we can meet my friend together.â
Tessa agreed to it and hung up the phone. Then, Gregory came up to her curiously and asked, âMommy, are you going out?â
âYes. Linville needs some help from me,â she said while affectionately pinching the little guyâs chubby cheeks.
However, she didnât know that Nicholas just so happened to push the door in and hear what she said. With a slight frown, he asked, âWhat does she need your help for?â
âHer friend is holding a show, but the musician she invited reneged on their promise. Itâs hard to find someone at the last minute too, so she asked me to help out,â she explained briefly to him without hiding.
When he heard that she had already agreed to it, he couldnât say anything much either, so he told her, âJust donât be too harsh on yourself.â
