Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas)

Chapter 1215 I Care About You, Too

Tessa nodded with a smile; her almond-shaped eyes were as bright as the stars. “I’ll be careful. Also, I’ll surely rest up when this is over.”

For the rest of the dinner, the atmosphere was incredibly harmonious. Stefania and Tessa were chatting like friends, their conversations ranging from music to fashion, whereas Remus discussed work-related matters with Tobias and Nicholas. Kieran, on the other hand, was keeping Gregory company, making the boy burst out laughing with his lively disposition.

When they finished having dinner, it was already late, so Nicholas took Tessa and Gregory home. The smile on Tessa’s face never faded as the three of them were on their way home. At the sight of this, Nicholas wrapped his arms around her and tickled her petite, upturned nose with his hand. He smiled. “You look all over the moon.”

“Of course.” Tessa’s eyes curved as she hugged the man around the waist with a Duchenne smile. “I think Grandpa has at least accepted me at the moment. As long as I work harder and better in the future, he’ll stop giving you a hard time.”

It’d be a lie to say Nicholas wasn’t visibly moved by such words. He’d always known that Tessa was trying very hard to improve herself to make herself worthy of him. “As I said, you don’t have to work so hard. You can rely on me for everything.” His voice dripped with indescribable affection as he tightened his arms around her.

Tessa shook her head while nestling in his arms. “I know you care about me, but I care about you, too.”

“I care about you, too, Mommy.” Not wanting to be left out at this moment, Gregory threw himself at Tessa’s knees.

Tessa was instantly overwhelmed. “I care about
