Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 380

Chapter 380 For Love

“I was looking forward to seeing you, Greg, and Timothy, but now it’s gone. It’s all gone. I’m devastated.” She cried her heart out, as if someone had taken her dream away.

Nicholas listened to her quietly, and a while later, he chuckled. He looked at her, a mess of tears, and he patiently calmed her down. “It’s alright. It’s alright. The performance is in two months, right? I’ll pretend I don’t know you’re coming then. It’ll still be the same in the end.” He had never been so gentle to anyone before.

Amused, Tessa broke into a laugh. “How can you pretend you don’t know I’m coming when you already do?” She wiped her tears away and shot him a playful glare.

Nicholas heaved a sigh of relief and smiled. “You’ve finally stopped crying.”

Tessa blushed shyly. “I wasn’t crying. I was just venting. I mean, I can’t force them to go to Xerthania.”

Nicholas suddenly felt really apologetic and guilty seeing the look on her face. She only left Southend because Remus forced her too. It had been a while since then, but she never complained about it. After they ended the call, Nicholas called Edward in. “Tell me if there’s anything important happening tomorrow and the day after.”

Edward nodded and scrolled through his tablet. “You have important appointments tomorrow and the day after that, sir.”

Nicholas answered without hesitation, “Cancel them.”

“C-Cancel them?” Edward stared at him dumbly. “Are you serious, sir?”

“I am always serious.” Nicholas looked at him .

Edward was shocked, and he persuaded, “But these clients are important, sir.”
