Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 719

Chapter 719 Tessa’s Gift

When Nicholas heard Gregory’s words, he looked down and fixed his gaze upon his son. Meeting the child’s eyes that were brightening up, he instantly understood that his son was trying to get him out of the difficult situation. “Gregory is right. Since you’re our guest, you mustn’t be troubled to look after my kid.” He rejected Wanda euphemistically by intentionally stating the differences between their positions in the feast.

In the meantime, Wanda’s smile stiffened on her face as she didn’t know what to say with her purse in her hands. Seeing the father and son walk away, she bit her lip and gently pleaded, “But, what am I going to do without you by my side? This place is a total stranger to me.”

“Don’t worry, Miss Muller. I’ll get my assistant to show you around the place right away.” As soon as Nicholas finished his words, he immediately sent for Edward.

Looking handsome, Edward walked up to Nicholas and asked, “How may I be of help, President Sawyer?”

Nicholas pointed at Wanda and said, “This is Miss Muller. Please show her around the place, would you?”

“Sure. Miss Muller, this way, please.” Edward nodded and courteously showed Wanda the way, but the latter stood still unenthusiastically. Instead, she was left behind in disappointment as she watched Nicholas walk away with Gregory.

On the other hand, the father and son soon found themselves in a place where there was no one else and sat down, whereupon Gregory struggled to break free from Nicholas’ embrace. As soon as he stood on his feet, he began to preach to his father with an annoyed look on his face. “You weren’t behaving yourself, Daddy. You promised Miss Tessa that you wouldn’t let any other woman get close to you, yet you failed to keep your word. Did you know that you could have been misunderstood if the others had seen you with that woman? Don’t forget. You still have Miss Tessa, and she would be heartbroken if she found out about what happened. Fine, I’ll keep an eye on you for Miss Tessa in her absence.”
