Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 974

Chapter 974 Well Done

After they arrived, Tessa realized that there were many people in Sofia’s place—all of which were members of the orchestra and her fellow senior apprentices. Eunice was also among them.

She was pretty disappointed to see that the person following Tessa wasn’t Nicholas. On the other hand, Tessa didn’t notice Eunice’s unhidden dismay. Instead, she brought Gregory with her while she politely greeted all her seniors and the other members.

Mona also followed suit and greeted everyone present courteously. For that reason alone, others had a relatively good impression of her. Suddenly, at this moment, Eunice asked, ”Tessa, where’s Mr. Sawyer? Why didn’t he come?”

At once, the smile on Tessa’s face slightly faded when she heard Eunice’s question. Likewise, others furrowed their eyebrows at her inappropriate line of inquiry.

Kellen nudged Eunice lightly as he reminded her. ”Eunice, that’s Tessa’s husband. Please stop stirring up trouble. Miss Sofia might get angry at you.”

Unfortunately, Eunice ignored his well-meant advice completely. Instead, she continued to ask Tessa, ”Why aren’t you saying anything, Tessa? I’m asking you: where’s Mr. Sawyer?”

”My husband has long since returned to Xerthania,” replied Tessa, emphasizing the word husband. Yet, at the same time, she was utterly disgusted by Eunice’s behavior.

Even so, Eunice pretended not to hear it and said in surprise, ”He has gone back to Xerthania? When did he go back? Why didn’t I know?”

Tessa instantly felt a little irritated at the face of Eunice’s unrelenting questions.

Therefore, she didn’t hide her hostility as she retorted, ”Eunice, I don’t think there’s any need for me to inform you of my husband’s affairs.”

Gregory, who stood next to Tessa, also nodded in agreement and echoed, ”Miss Eunice, why do you keep asking about my Daddy?”

In an instant, Eunice’s face flushed with slight embarrassment when faced with Gregory’s innocent question.

When the others saw the awful look on Eunice’s face, they ignored her and beckoned Tessa and Mona to take their seats.

After they made themselves comfortable, Mona leaned closer to Tessa and praised her in a low voice, ”Well done just now. There’s no need to be nice when dealing with such a shameless woman.”

Despite thinking Mona’s words were amusing, she also felt that what Mona said was right.

She felt a lot better now, venting her anger when she saw fit, especially regarding Eunice’s lack of boundaries.

Soon, dinner was ready.

The others followed Sofia to the dining room with happy steps, and Eunice was the only one with a rather unpleasant look the entire way.

Everyone feigned ignorance at her clearly displeased mood while they enjoyed each other’s company.

During the meal, everyone asked Tessa about her new song.
