Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 1374

Chapter 1374 Harper Was Let Out of Prison

"I think so too," Nicholas replied to Sofia with a smile.

Sofia burst out chuckling when she heard that.

She then held out her hands and asked, "Can I hold the baby?"

"Of course."

He handed Gordon over to her.

Gordon was not afraid of strangers. His clear eyes turned to stare straight at Sofia.

The innocent look in his eyes melted her heart.

"You have gotten so cute."

She could not bear to let him go at all. Occasionally, she would tap him on the nose with the tip of her finger.

Thinking she was playing with him, he happily laughed.

After exchanging their greetings, Sofia brought Tessa to the hotel.

It was one of the Sawyer Group's hotels in Janqash.

After they settled into their room, Gregory and Gordon were left in the care of the nanny they brought along.

It was all done so that they could have some peace of mind.

Later on, Sofia pulled Tessa over to the living room to chat.

"You have been resting for way too long. I'm afraid you might be a little rusty. We'll be retraining you during the time before the performance."

"I'll go with whatever you have planned."

Tessa obediently nodded.

She had indeed gotten rusty, and her expressiveness was not at its best.

Soon, the two were done discussing Tessa's training regime.

That evening, while Tessa was lying in Nicholas' arms, she told him about her practice schedule.

"This performance is really important to us, and I've been resting this whole time. I'll be very busy with extra training. However, I have the schedule all sorted out. I will make sure to spend time with you and the kids."

"You can spend time with us anytime you want, but I do not want you to exhaust yourself just for this performance. Do your best, but do not overexert yourself. You've just recovered from your injuries."

He gave her instruction after instruction while keeping his arms wrapped around her.

She knew he was saying all that because he was worried, so she made a promise. "Don't worry. I will not fool around with my health. All my training will be limited to what I can physically handle."



Tessa spent the next few days with Sofia in the studio, training and rehearsing for the performance.

During this time, Sofia had strict expectations of Tessa.

She would make Tessa repeatedly practice just over a trivial mistake.

After a few hours, Tessa was dead on her feet.

Thankfully, Sofia kept Tessa's recent recovery in mind and would let her take a break in the afternoon.

In the afternoons, Tessa only spent two hours in the studio before being driven back to the hotel by Nicholas.

She would thereafter immediately exercise for an hour according to her physical therapy treatment plan.

Her day only ended after she was done with her physical therapy.

Evenings were when she spent time with the children.

Gregory was a good kid who understood how exhausted she was, so he would offer to give her a massage.

On this night, Gregory did just that.

"Mommy, what do you think about my massages?"

"They're amazing. You're so smart, Sweetheart."

After praising Gregory with a bright smile, she turned to tease Gordon who was in her arms.

While her days were rather tiring, she at least had a good work-life balance.

During the first week, Gregory would video call Stefania every single day at the same time.

Naturally, Gordon was involved in the calls as well.

Tessa would also tell Stefania about her day.

They would happily chat away while Nicholas talked to Timothy about business over the phone.

The couple had warm looks in their eyes.

Their gazes only turned sharp and solemn when talking about work.

Later that evening once all business talk was over, Timothy suddenly frowned and blurted as if the thought just struck him, "Nicholas, I received news a few days ago that Harper was let out of prison."

Nicholas scowled.

However, he had expected this.

After all, the Quinns were the second most powerful family in Southend after the Sawyers.

After a pause to think, Nicholas said, "Harper is infamous for being spiteful; he's always insistent on getting back at others. Be more careful during this time."

"I know. I'll be careful."

Timothy nodded.

The two men continued and spent a few minutes chatting before ending the call.

However, Nicholas was still worried, so he called Kieran
