Fell for the Alpha-less Queen

Chapter 178 He Trusted Her

Finished

Nico found Tessa and Ysabel and saw that Tessa was just lying on the grass, leisurely sunbathing. He still couldn't believe his eyes.

"Tessa, are you okay? I'm sorry, it's all my fault. If I hadn't asked you to go to the lab for the experiment, none of this would've happened."

Nico felt really guilty. But since it had already happened, nothing he said now could change it.

Tessa sat up from the grass. The sunlight was a bit too bright, so she squinted slightly.

"You didn't do anything wrong. This has nothing to do with you. Don't worry, whatever they're planning, I'm still here."

Nico was stunned. He had come to comfort Tessa, but he didn't expect her to say that. Did she forget she's the one who's supposed to need support?

"Nico, I really want to ask you something right now. Why did you take off your jacket? You were just doing an experiment, so why take your clothes off? That's exactly the kind of thing that makes people misunderstand." Ysabel's tone wasn't friendly. Nico might've been good-looking, but he'd caused Tessa serious trouble.

Tessa remained silent.
