Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 203

Chapter 203 

“Keep this up and you will recover soon,” the doctor laughingly said when he saw

Tessa’s reaction.

“Then, can 1-” Tessa spoke up impatiently. She wanted to ask about playing the violin. Unfortunately, the doctor interrupted her before she could even finish her question.

The doctor said, “Don’t think that you can start playing the violin again just because you’re much better now. As they say, broken bones take a hundred days to heal. You should also take more care when it comes to a bone fracture like yours. You will need to recuperate quietly for at least a month or so before you can touch that precious violin of yours.”

Upon hearing those words, the light in her eyes vanished instantly. A month… I can afford to wait, but the orchestra can’t… There’re only a few more days left before the orchestra leaves to perform abroad, yet there’s no way I can go on stage in my current condition. In the end, will I just end up as a spectator again?

The look on her face did not escape Nicholas’ notice. He was well-aware of her unfulfilled wishes. Nevertheless, what could he do even if he knew? There were many things he could help her with, the only exception being matters involving her body. Unfortunately, there was no other method to solve this problem aside from slowly recuperating from her injuries.

Compared to her health, everything else was not as important. He did not wish for her to destroy herself for the sake of the performance this time. That was why he didn’t encourage her to return to the orchestra and the stage where she belonged.

Likewise, Gregory noticed the changes in her mood and quickly comforted her. “Miss Tessa, it will be okay. You are so talented. There will be many, many more opportunities in the future.”

Knowing that Gregory was worried about her, she forced her lips to curve into a smile. “I know.”

It was almost lunch time by the time Tessa was done with her check-up. Since these two had come along to accompany her for her check-up, she could not just leave without doing anything in return. Hence, she suggested, “President Sawyer, Greg, why don’t I treat the two of you to lunch as a thank you for accompanying me for my check-up?”

Naturally, Gregory was elated to hear those words and immediately nodded in agreement. “Sure!”

It was probably thanks to Tessa’s company that his lunch tasted especially delicious today. He ate quickly without needing anybody to persuade him to eat, let alone worry about him.

She was thinking about going home after lunch. The words were on the tip of her tongue, but she was interrupted by the urgent ringing of a phone before she could say anything

Nicholas answered the call and frowned deeply while listening to the report from Edward.
