Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 303

Chapter 303 

Edward choked on his words, then came to his senses and realized that it was a bad idea. If Nicholas went upstairs now to find Tessa, they might as well tell her that they had been following her all this while.

He let out a light cough, then returned to being his shrewd special assistant persona and asked, “President Sawyer, shall we return to the hotel?”

Nicholas ignored him, and his dark eyes were fixed on a window on the 17th floor, in which Tessa had just turned the lights on.

Edward knew his president’s answer and sat quietly in the driver’s seat upon seeing this. And there they stayed for the entire night.

Under the glow of the yellow street light, the black car stayed quietly parked at the residential area entrance. The surroundings were quiet, and the lights in Tessa’s room had already turned off, but Nicholas still couldn’t take his eyes off the windows.

He didn’t know why he followed Tessa back, but he just couldn’t help it. For some reason, he felt irritated.

Pop! A small blue flame ignited in the car.

Nicholas lit himself a cigarette, causing scarlet sparks to flicker in the night. He inhaled deeply, letting the strong and bitter taste of nicotine to barely calm his restless thoughts. He exhaled rings of smoke as his pondering gaze fell back onto the window of Tessa’s house.

As time went by, the sky began to brighten, Edward, who had been up all night, turned back and asked, “President Sawyer, it’s dawn. Should we book a flight back?”

According to the previous arrangements, they were supposed to return home today.

Nicholas massaged his mild headache due to a lack of sleep. A few moments later, he got out of the car, then glanced at Tessa’s window before speaking in a low and hoarse voice. “You can go back first. I’ll leave in two days.”

Edward already knew what his president wanted to do, having gotten this reply. Then, he nodded and drove away without saying a word.
