Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 1065

Chapter 1065 A Change in Attitude

Kieran was always the more expressive brother, so when he aired his grievances, his face showed how wronged he felt. Still, his aggrieved expression merely lasted for less than a second before it switched to unabashed enthusiasm, for he was eager to share with Tessa that the two of them were in attendance at her concert.

On the other hand, Tessa was stunned when she heard this. “Grandpa, why didn’t you tell me in advance that you were coming? If I had known you were coming, I could have arranged a better seat for you.”

This time, because of Sofia’s excellent marketing of Tessa’s special concert, it was nigh impossible to gain access to a single ticket.

After Remus heard the words that escaped Tessa’s lips, he glared at Kieran for his loose tongue and slightly reprimanded, “You talk too much. What are you? A fawn? Whatever happened to staying silent when you’re unwanted? Do you need me to hammer that into your brain?” He even emphasized his threat with a tap on his cane.

Kieran cowered when he met Remus’ gaze, knowing that Remus could dish out what he served.

Therefore, he immediately apologized, “I’m sorry, Grandpa. I was wrong. I’ll stop talking.” Not only that, he even made a mouth-zipping gesture right after he said that.

Meanwhile, the others couldn’t help it as they laughed at Kieran when they saw him like this.

Gregory gazed at the adults incomprehensibly and questioned, “Uncle Kieran is obviously a human. How can he be a fawn?”

The room went silent for a moment before the adults resumed laughing louder than before. Even Remus couldn’t hold back his amusement and chuckled.

The only one that wasn’t laughing was Kieran, who was busy looking at Gregory with a disgruntled gaze. Unfortunately for him, Gregory didn’t understand the source of his distress.

Finally, everyone managed to calm their amusement.

Also, thanks to this interruption, the atmosphere in the living room became relatively harmonious.

Once again, the topic of their conversation resumed to Tessa’s special concert that evening.

Tessa looked at Remus expectantly as she inquired eagerly for feedback from an audience and a respected elder, “What do you think of my performance this evening? Did I do well?”

As soon as that question left her lips, Nicholas, Kieran, and others turned their heads and looked in their direction.

Likewise, Remus naturally noticed their stares. Nevertheless, he ignored them with practiced ease. He merely glanced lightly at Tessa as he thought of how to reply to her. Then, pursing his lips slightly, he finally spoke, “How melodious can it be when your performance is so mediocre?”

Although he still spoke in a relatively arrogant tone, it was clear to all that he didn’t really mean those words. Nevertheless, his manner of speech was less dismissive than before.
