“Tess, Nicholas.”
“Miss Tessa, Daddy, you two are back at last,” Gregory said while jumping off the sofa. Then, he ran straight toward Tessa and stretched out his arms, saying, “Miss Tessa, give me a hug.”
Tessa couldn’t bring herself to turn down the adorable little boy at all, so she bent down and held Gregory in her arms. Then, she walked toward Timothy and sat on the sofa, saying, “Have you eaten?”
“Yep,” Timothy said. Then, he added with a mischievous smile, “Of course, it’ll be even better if you can make some midnight snack later on.”
“Of course I can,” Tessa replied without the slightest hesitation.
Unwilling to fall behind, Gregory chimed in, “I’ve eaten too. I had one and a half bowl of pasta for dinner, and Uncle Timothy had dinner with me.”
Tessa felt her heart almost melting at the sight of how adorable he was. She kissed the little boy on the cheek and praised him, saying, “That’s very great of you, Greg.”
“Hehe…” Gregory giggled happily.

Nicholas was inwardly pleased as he sat aside and watched them interact.
The clock on the wall struck nine in the blink of an eye. Recalling that she had promised to fix Timothy some midnight snack earlier, she stood up and asked, “Tim, what would you like to eat for midnight snack?”
“I want to eat the noodles you cook. It’s been a long time since I last ate that,” Timothy said while smacking his lips. They were now doing better than before, but he found that what he liked the most were still the noodles Tessa used to cook for him at midnight.
Tessa nodded.
Just then, Gregory’s excited voice rang beside her. “I want to eat the noodles you cook too, Miss Tessa.”
“Okay, I’ll make you a bowl of it,” Tessa said to Gregory with a smile as her eyes fell upon Nicholas. However, before she could ask him, he said, “I want a bowl of it too.”
Tessa nodded before heading for the kitchen.
At the sight of the scene, Gregory immediately followed after her, mumbling, “I’ll go help Miss Tessa.”
A while later, Tessa made four bowls of noodles. After serving all the noodles on the table, she called Nicholas and Timothy over to eat, saying, “The midnight snack is ready.”
Timothy ate the noodles with great relish. He said with a sigh, “The noodles you make are still the best, after all.”
“That’s right! Miss Tessa, whatever kind of food you make, I can have two bowls of it,” Gregory said while wolfing down the noodles. One might as well say he was Tessa’s most loyal supporter.
Nicholas nodded in agreement. “The noodles are very tasty indeed.”
