Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas)

Chapter 642

Chapter 642
Tessa knew of the friend who had been injured but still pretended to sound angry as she spoke. “You didn’t tell me that your friend was a woman.”
“That’s my mistake. I won’t do it again,” Nicholas nodded while admitting to his faults. His actions touched Tessa to see this, but she still felt the urge to question him out of curiosity. “So, what’s your relationship with her?” She knew him well enough that he wouldn’t just agree to do others a favor as he hated being troubled by others.
He answered her question honestly. “I don’t have much of a relationship with her. At most, I used to be friendly with her.” He focused his earnest gaze on Tessa. “I won’t fall for anyone else apart from you.”
Tessa had been trying to keep a frown on her face, but her expression softened the moment she looked into the man’s loving eyes. Gregory joined in the conversation with a straight look on his face. “I’m the same as Daddy, Miss Tessa. I don’t like anyone else apart from you.”

Tessa couldn’t help but laugh when she saw the serious expressions on both the boy’s and the man’s faces. She wasn’t suspicious of Nicholas-she just wanted to make a fool out of him. Nicholas could tell that she was joking, and he heaved a sigh of relief. “You little rascal…” His gaze was filled with a mixture of exasperation and love for the woman.
“What did I do? Do you think you’re the only one who gets to tease me? Am I not allowed to tease you back?” Tessa asked. Upon finishing her sentence, she turned to ask Gregory. “Do you think what I did was right, Gregory?”.
“Yes, Miss Tessa!” It didn’t matter what Tessa did or said; Gregory insisted on protecting Tessa as he was her most loyal protector. Tessa shot Nicholas a triumphant look after hearing what Gregory said, and Nicholas smiled in response.
Before he could part his lips to say anything else, Tessa continued talking. “You’ll need to help me keep an eye on Daddy from now on. You can’t allow others to get close to him, okay?”
Gregory patted his chest to indicate his promise to her. The severe expression on his face made him seem incredibly adorable.
When he heard their conversation, Nicholas felt highly amused but couldn’t help but blurt out, “Do you not have any trust in me at all?”.
“It’s not that I don’t trust you. I’m just worried about the people around you,” she replied honestly. She was confident that Nicholas would never betray her, but she was worried that someone else might intentionally come between them.
Janet could hear the three of them talking from where she stood in the living hall, and she felt terrible. It seems like he only treated me as an outsider all along. Both Nicholas and Gregory are the same.
