Chapter 10 Back home

“Ma’am, I love our office space. It’s spc ious and very well-ventilated,” Lisa, Tessa’s assistant, remarked as she moved around the office space. She had decided to move to Ashford City together with Tessa.

Tessa nodded as she looked around the newly renovated place.

She had now settled in Ashford City. When she arrived, her best friend, Michelle, helped her look for an office space at the mall and a school for the children.

Tessa had to design a plan for the changes she wanted to make to the office. After all, being in a bigger City. she was optimistic she would have more clients, so she needed the place to look professional.

“It’s going to be fun working with you, Tessa,” Michelle chimed in.

After noticing how she had a hard time managing the company’s finances back in Whitpalm City. Tessa decided to hire an accountant so that she could concentrate more on her work.

The only difficulty she had was hiring a qualified accountant. Luckily, Michelle studied financial accounting in college.

Of course, she was more than willing to help out with little pay until the company began to make enough profits.

Tessa smiled at her. “I hope everything goes well.”

She then turned to face her children, calling out her eldest.

“Reagan, you can play with your sisters while your aunties and I fix up the place. Can you protect your sisters

for me?”

It was because they were only able to purchase the children’s requirements for school today so they hadn’t started school yet. Tessa wanted to leave them with Elena but they pleaded with her to let them follow her to work. Naturally, they wanted to see where their mother works.

Reagan blinked and nodded his little head seriously. “Ok, Mommy. Don’t worry. I’m a man and a man protects

his family.”

He puffed out his little chest as if he was an adult, his face was serious with a cute pout on his lips.

Tessa thought he looked adorable so she ruffled his neatly styled hair but the little man frowned, pushing her hand away.

He didn’t like being untidy.

She then looked at her two daughters. Nia was mostly quiet and didn’t like being around people. Especially

strangers.

Willa, on the other hand, was a sweet girl. To her, everyone was a friend. It was easier for someone to kidnap Willa with no problems than Nia.

“Girls, please behave. I’ll buy you ice cream later.”

Their eyes lit up when they heard that. Ice cream was their favorite! So yummy!

“Ok, Mommy.” they said in unison.

“I love you all.”

“We love you too, Mommy.”

Tessa went into her office to organise stuff while she told Lisa to keep an eye on her kids.

The place was designed in such a way that there would be a visitor’s lounge area and a reception at the

entrance where Lisa will be stationed for a while.

Then two big rooms would be the actual offices with a toilet at the far end.

.When the kids were left alone, they looked at each other and Willa suddenly suggested. “Let’s play hide and seek.”
