Chapter 989 Don’t Let Tessa Off
On the other end, Wanda frowned because she understood the meaning behind Eunice’s words. It seems that she doesn’t plan to pick on Tessa anymore. No, that won’t do.
Not only did she want Tessa not to attain any fame, but she also wanted Tessa to be utterly ruined so that she would be too ashamed to stay by Nicholas’ side.
Hence, she purposely provoked Eunice, saying, ”What? Are you planning to let her off? Bear in mind that as long as this woman exists, it’s impossible for you to get close to Nicholas. Besides, even though the building caught fire, it will only postpone the release of Tessa’s album. Once everything is in place, your teacher will definitely reach out to Tessa again.”
After a moment of hesitation, Eunice figured that the woman had made a valid point. ”What do you have in mind?”
”We’ll go according to the original plan.”
Tessa was oblivious to all these nefarious plots that surrounded her. After she had tucked Gregory in bed, she saw that the lights in the study were still on. Therefore, she turned to go downstairs.
A few minutes later, she returned to the second floor with a bowl of soup.
She knocked on the door of the study and entered. ”Nicholas.”
When Nicholas saw her, he quickly rose to his feet and took the soup from her hands, asking in concern, ”Why aren’t you in bed yet?”
”I’m worried that you’ll be hungry when you’re still at work at this time, so I thought to make you some supper,” Tessa said, gesturing for him to finish the soup while it was still hot.
A tender warmth surged in his heart, and he held the bowl as he shared it with her. Then, under the light, they fed each other, painting a very heart-warming picture.
After they finished the soup, Tessa urged, ”Get back to work quickly. I’ll be waiting for you here.”
At first, he didn’t want her to wait for him, but she was firm on her decision to accompany him, so he could only allow her to do as she pleased.
Still, he sped up the efficiency of his work because he wanted to finish earlier. That way, Tessa wouldn’t have to wait for him and get a good night’s rest. But, alas, it was an hour later when he was finished with work.
