Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 109

Chapter 109
“Daddy gave me this six months ago. It’s different from Shadow because it can’t talk. However, if you key in commands for it, it can even dance for you. Let me show you how it works.”
Then, Gregory entered a series of codes into the robot. Although the robot looked big and clumsy, it actually started dancing like popular modern-day robots. In fact, it looked even better than those robots.
“This is from Grandpa..” Gregory introduced all of the robots that he had as if they were his treasures while Tessa listened attentively.
Meanwhile, Nicholas trailed behind them and watched Tessa and Gregory interact with his dark gaze. Gregory normally wouldn’t allow anyone to enter this place, and not even Kieran was allowed to enter.
However, Tessa was the only person who was able to enter the basement besides Gregory and Nicholas. For Gregory, who had a strong sense of territorial awareness, revealing his secret base to Tessa without any hesitation indicated that he trusted her with all his heart.
Right then, Nicholas narrowed his gaze before he stared at Tessa with a hint of curiosity. Nevertheless, Tessa didn’t notice his gaze at all, as she was exploring the basement with a smile, along with Gregory.
About an hour had already passed by when they had finally finished exploring the basement. After the tour, all Tessa felt was astonishment, as the Sawyers were way more extravagant than what she had imagined
When they got back to the mansion, Gregory asked, “Miss Tessa, did you like my secret base?”
“I love it.” Upon hearing what Tessa said, Gregory pursed his lips and smiled before his cheeks flushed. It was as if he was delighted with Tessa’s answer.
“Master Nicholas, dinner is ready.” Right then, Andrew came over and said to Nicholas respectfully.
“Alright.” Nicholas nodded before he brought Tessa and Gregory to the dining room to have dinner. After they were done with their meals, Edward came to Dynasty Gardens with a document in his hands. “President Sawyer, this is a document from Roselle Gingham.”
Yet Nicholas frowned without even scanning through the document. “Return it.”
Nevertheless, Edward had a hesitant look on his face before he said again, “But, President Sawyer, this is the overseas project that we had always wanted to get our hands on.”
Sawyer Group had always been trying to get in contact with this overseas company for a long time now, but that company had taken advantage of them and gouged them, causing them to reach a stalemate.
Therefore, Roselle had been a great help for them by scoring a deal with that overseas company.
Despite that, Nicholas remained quiet. Although he really wanted this project, that didn’t mean that he wanted to owe Roselle any favors.
Even though Edward could notice the look of refusal on Nicholas’s face, he still had to convey what he had to convey. “Miss Gingham wants me to convey to you that she’s very sorry for what her mother had done to Greg, and she hopes that she can make up for it with this deal. She also hopes that you can forgive her mother.”
Upon hearing that, Tessa thought to herself, Roselle is really clever enough to exchange forgiveness with a deal like this.
Yet, Gregory looked away arrogantly when he heard Edward’s words before he harrumphed to show
that he was upset, as he really disliked Roselle.
Who wants her project?!
When Nicholas noticed Gregory’s reaction, he returned the document to Edward without any hesitation. “Sawyer Group doesn’t need this! There’s nothing in this world that can be more important than Greg’s safety to me, and I don’t need a mere project like this. Return it.”
Still, Edward looked reluctant. Is he really going to reject a deal that came delivered up to his doorsteps?
Nonetheless, he knew that Nicholas wouldn’t change his mind after making his decision. Although he thought that it was a pity to let go of a deal like this, he didn’t try to convince Nicholas otherwise and quickly left with the document.
Not long after Edward left, Gregory dashed toward Nicholas before climbing up his legs and sitting down on Nicholas’s thighs. Then, he declared in a childish voice, “Daddy, you’re the best! You’re the best daddy ever!”
