Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 841

Chapter 841 Becoming Sofia’s Apprentice

Tessa answered her obediently.

“I’ll also follow your arrangement, Granny Sofia,” echoed Gregory in a sweet voice.

“Okay, you guys will follow my arrangement from now on.” Sofia smiled happily. At the same time, she revealed her plans, saying, “From now on, I’m gonna extend our daily lessons from two hours to four hours. That’s two hours in the morning and two hours in the afternoon. You two may have lunch at my place during lunch break.”

Naturally, Tessa agreed to it. After finalizing the details, she had the maid bring her two cups of tea, after which she and Gregory performed a ceremony to formally acknowledge Sofia as their mentor. Of course, such etiquette didn’t exist in foreign countries, but she and Gregory did so nonetheless to show their respect and appreciation for their mentor.

When Sofia learned of the meaning of the ceremony, she became even more satisfied with Tessa.

At the end of the ceremony, Tessa and Gregory bid Sofia farewell. However, instead of going back right away, they went to Louis’ manor.

“I made it, Mr. Louis! Mr. Louis—” Tessa couldn’t help but cry out merrily before she and Gregory even reached Louis’ workroom.

Louis’ face broke into a fond smile when he heard Tessa’s cries of joy in the workroom. However, by the time he saw her, his smile was already replaced by a disapproving frown. “I could hear you shouting from far away. Where are your ladylike manners?”

Gregory covered his mouth while chuckling in secret.

Tessa didn’t take Louis’ words to heart either. Capering to his side, she replied sweetly with a note of childishness in her voice, “Let’s forget about my ladylike manners today. I’m so happy.” She didn’t know why, but she’d inadvertently behave in a childlike manner in front of Louis. It was as if she treated him as an older member of her family whom she could act like a spoiled child and get close to as she pleased. At this very moment, for instance, she let out a chuckle and—with extravagant gestures—told him how she had become Sofia’s final apprentice.

Louis looked at her fondly while she was talking. Not only that, but he was happy for her deep down. “That’s nice. It’s not easy to gain that old woman’s approval.”
