Chapter 329
“Yes, just the two of us.” Nicholas nodded, but as though he was worried that Tessa would misunderstand, he quickly explained earnestly, “This client is one of the major development projects that the company has set its sights on for the second half of the year. This project can not only broaden our market overseas, but it can also add another industry under the Sawyer Group’s belt. Hayley knows some insider information, and since both our companies want to cooperate, I have to meet up with her.”
After hearing that Nicholas had broken down into details of his company’s development plans for the second half of the year, Tessa couldn’t help but giggle. She knew that he said so much just to put her mind at ease, and because of this, she suddenly felt that she was being taken seriously.
Even though his explanation touched her, there was still a trace of doubt in her heart.
“Nicholas, I have a question.”
“What is it?”
“I think, be it Roselle or Hayley, they have better qualifications than me, but why are you only interested in me?” After saying that, she fixed her gaze on him with an expectant look in her eyes.

He raised his brows in surprise as he wasn’t expecting her to ask such a question, and he asked himself, Why?
After he pondered over it for a while, something came into his mind, and he said, “I’ve never been involved in a relationship before this, so there are many things which I don’t really understand. But now I know that regardless of how outstanding Roselle and Hayley are, I’m just following my heart in this. My heart says it’s you that it wants, so I want only you by my side.” At this point, he gazed deeply into Tessa’s eyes through the screen. “When I see you, it makes me feel like you’re the only one for me in this life.”
Thump, thump.
At that moment, she could feel her heart beating against her chest, and after a few seconds, she composed herself. Then, finally, she couldn’t help but murmur, “Yet here you are, saying that you know nothing about relationships, but nobody will believe it if they see how well you flirt.”
“What did you say?” Even though he heard her saying something, he couldn’t clearly hear what she said.
She was startled as she didn’t think she actually said aloud what she was thinking.
“Uh, nothing.” In order to avoid being questioned, she hurriedly changed the topic. “It’s getting late for you. Aren’t you going to prepare to meet your client?”
He pretended not to notice her sudden subject change and glanced down at his watch. “It’s still early. How was your practice today? Did anyone cause you any problems?” he asked in concern.
“I’m Miss Hathaway’s protégé. Nobody dares to make any trouble for me.”
The proud and charming look she had made it hard for Nicholas to look away, and he thought that she was so attractive no matter how much he looked at her.
