Tessa nodded in acknowledgment while Nicholas listened to the doctor's advice attentively.
When they returned, Stefania and Gregory were already impatiently waiting for them on the couch.
"How was the checkup?" Stefania asked with concern.
Tessa didn't hide anything and recounted the doctor's words, "My injuries are healed. I just need to eat well."
"That's good. As long as your body has recovered, we don't need to be too worried about the rest," Stefania consoled her.
Then, Gregory chimed in playfully, "I'll make sure Mommy will drink the soup every day!"
Tessa didn't know how to respond to that as all sorts of nutritious soup, chicken soup, and ginseng soup had been served to her these days to make her heal faster. Hence, her face would twist in apprehension whenever she smelled them.
Later, the whole family had lunch before Nicholas went to the office while Tessa stayed home to practice the violin while caring for the children.
While Tessa was taking a break, she got a call from Sofia.
"Tessa, what did the doctor say during the checkup today? Are you feeling better?" Sofia asked worriedly.
Tessa replied with a smile, "Yup. I've also been given the green light to start practicing the violin too."
"That's great. Since you're practicing, you can come over to Vienna. I can guide you here, and you can try to manage Group Two as well," Sofia suggested.
Tessa knew Sofia had the best for her in mind and agreed to her suggestion immediately. Then, they decided on the date for her return and talked a bit more before ending the call.
