Chapter 1514 Is It Related to Edward?
Tessa decided not to push the subject. ’’Alright. Since he's not your type, then I won't force you. But, if you plan to abort the child, I suggest that you at least inform Edward about your decision."
"I'll think about it." Mona did not object to the suggestion. Then, she urged Tessa to return to the restaurant.
Tessa did not stay for long once she confirmed that Mona was fine.
Back at the restaurant, the others immediately expressed their concern for Mona when Tessa returned. "Tessa, is Mona okay?"
"She's fine. She's just having some stomach problems, so I arranged for some light and digestible food to be delivered to her room," she responded with a half-truth.
Everybody, except for Nicholas, did not think much about her answer and continued eating their meal.
The meal ended on a happy note. After that, they dispersed and returned to their respective rooms to rest.
Nicholas brought Tessa home.
During the car ride, he began to question her. "What's wrong with your friend?"
"She..." Tessa was about to answer when she caught a glimpse of Edward, who was driving in the front seat. Hence, she changed her mind and said, "It's nothing."
Despite her response, he immediately saw through her evasion. He swept a glance at Edward and stopped pursuing the matter.
When they reached home, Nicholas took Tessa to the bedroom and resumed their conversation from before. "Is your friend's condition related to Edward?"
Tessa glanced at him in astonishment and burst out laughing. "I really can't hide anything from you."
He raised his eyebrows slightly and pressed her again. "So, what happened?"
"Mona is pregnant, and Edward is the father." She did not conceal anything and responded truthfully.
Her answer shocked him greatly. A short while later, he seemed to recall something. "Was it that night?"
She nodded.
His confusion intensified at her response. "That's strange..."
