Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas)

Chapter 599

Chapter 599
It seemed that Nicholas understood what she meant just now.
Just as the emcee was about to close the bidding, he raised his paddle again. “Six million.”
Tessa was dumbfounded when she heard his voice ring in her ears.
This violin was too expensive.
She sighed in her heart and didn’t want him to break the bank like this, so she persuaded him, “Nicholas, you have given me an excellent violin. I have enough violins now; I really don’t need this one.”
“You having enough violins doesn’t conflict with me wanting to give it to you. Also, this is the present I want to give you to congratulate you on becoming the concertmaster.”
Nicholas looked at Tessa with gentle eyes and added pleasantly, “I hope you can take it with you to achieve your dreams.”
“But this… It’s too precious.”
“I want the best for you.”
He stared at her affectionately.

Right then, it would be a lie if Tessa said his actions and words did not move her; however, she still felt that Nicholas had spent too much.
Just as she was about to persuade him again, the sound of the hammer knocking down came to her ears.
“Congratulations to this gentleman for successfully bidding the Stradivarius violin for six million.”
Perhaps the emcee heard Tessa’s words of persuasion, so he paused and added, “The price has been set; the rules of the auction do not allow refunds.”
After the auction ended, a staff member swiftly came over and invited them to view their prize, so to speak.
“Our guests, please come with me to the VIP room to do the inspection and acceptance of the Stradivarius violin.”
With that, Nicholas nodded and took Tessa and Gregory with him.
On the way there, she held Gregory’s hand without saving a word as she felt mixed emotions regarding Nicholas’ gift.
When he noticed that. Nicholas merely tilted his head and glanced at the beautiful girl besia him but didn’t say anything.
Gregory happily followed along her side, not noticing the subtle change in atmosphere between the two adults.
When they entered the VIP room, the emcee was also there.
He greeted them respectfully and politely. “President Sawyer, Miss Reinhart.”
As Nicholas saw him, he nodded with his arm around Tessa and said calmy, “Where’s the violin?”
The emcee looked at the staff next to him once he said those words.
And with that, the staff carefully placed the case containing the Stradivarius violin on the glass table.
When he opened the case, Tessa was immediately attracted by the exquisite violin in front of her.
She didn’t get a good look at the musical instrument previously on the stage because the hostess was walking around.
So, when he saw her look at the violin with a passionate gleam in her eye, he gently pushed her lower back and said warmly, “Go on, have a better look at it.”
Tessa didn’t refuse as she stepped forward and carefully took out the violin.
Although the Stradivarius violin had more than two hundred years of history and looked pretty simple, its craftsmanship was exquisite.
