Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 585

Chapter 585 

Unable to hold back any longer, Tessa pulled Gregory into her arms for kisses and caresses 

With his arms around her neck, Gregory giggled happily.

Affection and love shimmered in Nicholas’ deep eyes as he watched the two cuddle with each other.

Dinner was to be had in a members-only establishment.

To celebrate Tessa’s achievement, Nicholas had ensured they were sufficiently prepared.

Their room was decorated in a manner that was very warm and cozy while a bouquet of lilies-a congratulations bouquet-was used as the centerpiece of their table.

“Thank you,” Tessa said, hugging Nicholas. She was touched by the effort put in.

“Congratulations, Miss Tessa,” Gregory happily said, holding his glass of juice up in an imitation of a toast. “You’re one step closer to achieving your dream.”

“Oh, you’re such a flatterer.”

She giggled as she clinked her glass of wine against the glass of juice.

“I’m only ever like this when it’s with you,” he said as he guzzled down his juice.

Those words filled her with joy and warmth.

She had been so overjoyed that evening that she had a little more to drink than usual. Although she was tipsy by the end of dinner, she wasn’t drunk.

When they arrived home, she tucked Gregory in bed before returning to the bedroom.

When Nicholas saw her come in, he beckoned her and said, “Come here.”

“What is it?” she asked as she walked over to him.

To her surprise, as soon as she was within reach, he pulled her into an embrace.

Then, a shiny silver chain bracelet dangled before her eyes.

Stunned, she exclaimed, “What a beautiful bracelet!”

“Do you like it?” he dipped his head down and whispered into her ear. There was a silent but obvious seductive quality to his deep voice.

Instantly, she felt as though she had been zapped.

“I do,” she replied, nodding as her face blushed.

Seeing that, he chuckled and put the bracelet on her wrist.

“Congratulations, Tess. You’re one step closer to your dream,” said Timothy.
