Chapter 6 I Don’t Want Her Near Gregory
“Well, I…” Tessa cast the briefest of looks at Nicholas, unsure how to answer Gregory’s question.
The next second, the little boy’s eyes turned red, and he pressed his lips into a thin line as he tried to keep from crying, but alas, his tears fell anyway.
His tears alone were enough to make Tessa’s heart shatter into a thousand pieces.
To one side, Kieran felt his heart twist at Gregory’s silent crying, and he quickly interjected, “Just let her carry him for a while, Nicholas. What’s the rush? Besides, this lady is going on stage in a bit, so she could just bring Greg into the hall and get right to the performance afterward. I mean, look at our baby—he’s crying! If Mom sees how puffy his eyes are, she’s going to freak out.”
Nicholas frowned, and his sharp gaze lingered on Tessa for a long moment. What is it with this woman? What did she do to make Greg so obsessed with her? But he didn’t want to see Gregory cry, either, so he maintained his composure as he said in clipped tones, “If it isn’t too much of a bother, Miss Reinhart, then we’d be much obliged if you could keep our Gregory company for a while longer. He’s just a child, and he can be a little clingy, so we hope you won’t mind.”
Instantly, Tessa shook her head. “Oh, please, there’s no need to be so formal. It’s no trouble taking care of him at all.” Frankly speaking, she was far too fond of Gregory to think of minding him as a chore, though she was admittedly surprised that Nicholas would allow an outsider like herself to take care of his son.
Gregory, on the other hand, did not dwell too much on this. He had cheered up considerably after his father had given the green light, and in his trademark childlike voice, he said, “Thank you, Daddy!”
Then, he hastily turned to look up at Tessa with adoration. “Pretty lady, you still need a violin, don’t you? I’ll take you to see Grandma’s huge violin collection, and you can pick whichever you like!”
Tessa nodded indulgently. “Alright, lead the way.”
