Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 696

Chapter 696

While sitting next to Nicholas, Tessa poured two glasses of wine for them sensibly. 

Janet was unhappy as she felt excluded when she saw how the three were enjoying themselves. 

At this time, Cole continued, “I‘ll bring Janet with me when I head back this time. Thank you for taking care of her throughout this time.” 

Her face darkened as soon as she heard this. She didn‘t want to go back. She felt that if she left now, she would never have a chance at all. 

But... when she saw how Nicholas didn‘t react to her leaving, she felt her heart ache.

Did this man really want her to leave? 

When Tessa noticed the reluctance in Janet‘s eyes, she felt a little uncomfortable but did not take it to heart. 

Everyone was ready to leave once dinner was over. 

However, Janet gritted her teeth and walked up to Nicholas expectantly. “Can we talk?” 

“We don‘t have anything to talk about,” he answered indifferently before putting his hand on Tessa‘s shoulders. Then, he leaned onto her affectionately and softly said, “Let‘s go.” 

Tessa nodded and walked away with him a little laboriously. 

He drank a lot of wine over dinner and was a little tipsy; he had leaned half his weight on her. 

As Janet watched the silhouettes of the two people about to walk away, she felt extremely aggrieved. 

When Cole noticed the ugly expression on her face, he stepped forward, patted her on the shoulder, and persuaded her, “Let him go. If you continue to force your way in like this, you might not even be able to be friends with Nicholas in the future.” 

She was even more unwilling when she heard this, but deep down, she knew he was right. 

If she continued to do this, Nicholas would only become more and more disgusted with her. 

As she thought of this, she quickly chased after him. “Nicholas.”
