Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 581

Chapter 581 Although he looked calm and collected on the outside, Gregory was actually terrified on the inside.

Sa

Still, he suppressed his fear.

He was afraid that Tessa would feel worse if he let himself cry.

From the clingy hug, Tessa could feel how uneasy Gregory had been, which made sense since he must’ve been scared stiff.

Under artificial lighting, both of their faces looked ghastly pale. Even so, there was a loving air in the room.

This scene was what Nicholas was greeted with when he returned from escorting the doctor out. Instantly, his heart calmed down.

Just then, Andrew walked by with a glass of warm milk.

“Master Nicholas.”

“I’ll take it to her,” he said, dismissing Andrew after accepting the glass of milk.

He then walked into the room with the glass of warm milk.

Gratitude filled Tessa’s heart as she watched him move closer.

She didn’t dare imagine what would’ve happened if he hadn’t arrived on time.

“Drink this. It’ll help with the shock,” said Nicholas as he handed over the glass.

With a nod, she accepted it.

Once she was done with the glass of milk, she looked at the other two in the room and asked, “Why were you there?”

“Daddy and I were going to celebrate with you, Miss Tessa,” Gregory sweetly replied as he clung to her arm. “Who knew that we’d find those bad guys trying to hurt you. Thank goodness you’re alright.”

The response made her feel so much warmer, especially when combined with the sight of Nicholas, who radiated a sense of security to her.

It was also no wonder her calls to Nicholas never went through that afternoon. They must’ve been on the plane.

At that thought, she smiled. “Yes, thank goodness for your timely arrival. You’re the reason why I’m okay now.”

“Yeah! Daddy is the best. He sent all the bad guys running.” Gregory looked at Nicholas with eyes full of excitement and worship before turning to say to Tessa in a comforting tone, “Don’t worry,

Miss Tessa. I’ll be as strong as Daddy one day, and I’ll protect you then.”

Gregory’s innocent words made her feel like her entire being was filled with cotton cand sensation that felt both sweet and warm to her.

There was a type of unspeakable warm harmony that echoed through the room as their shadows were thrown against the white walls by the dim yellow lights in the room.

In one day, he had gone on a plane ride that spanned over ten hours and received the fright of his life. It was a miracle he had held on this long.
