Chapter 51
“Yes!”
Gregory nodded before he looked around and noticed that Tessa was carrying a violin with her, so he
asked curiously. “Did you come here right after your work?*
Tessa smiled gently. “Yeah, I just finished my practice.”
art he had a genuine look on his face as he asked again, “Can you stay over tonight, Miss Pretty Lady?”
“Well…”
While she was taken aback and looked hesitant, a disappointed look appeared on his face before he
asked with a pitiful voice, “You can’t, huh?”
Although she couldn’t beat seeing him disappointed, she made up her mind and nodded. “Yeah, I’m
sorry, Greg. I need to go home today.”
Upon hearing that, Greogry lowered his head in disappointment and he looked really dejected.
Meanwhile, Nicholas, who couldn’t stand to see Gregory like that, immediately frowned and gave Kieran

Kieran initially returned Nicholas’ gaze innocently as he didn’t understand what Nicholas was trying to
say, but Nicholas glared at him again.
Right then, Kieran felt his head numbing before he finally caught onto what Nicholas had meant and
chuckled before suggesting, “Miss Reinhart, why don’t you stay over with Gregory tonight? How can you
bear seeing him so dejected when he looks up to you so much? Besides, my brother hasn’t been able to
go to the company to work because of Greg, so I’ll have to manage the company in his place. In that
case, I won’t be able to stay over to take care of Greg, so please remain to take care of him.”
However, Tessa paused. “But, even if you can’t stay, isn’t your brother still here?”
While Kieran was rendered speechless, Nicholas gave himself a facepalm before giving Kieran a sharp
glare.
Immediately, Kieran started to perspire before he shook his head and explained, “No, no, no. That’s
where you’re wrong, Miss Reinhart. Do you really think someone like my brother can take care of Greg
well?”
Why can’t he? She thought in curiosity as Nicholas had been the one taking care of Gregory ever since
he was a baby.
However, Kieran quickly changed the topic before Tessa could say anything. “Let’s not talk about that
anymore. It’s set for tonight, then. Miss Reinhart, I think that you’re a really nice person and you can
definitely take good care of Greg. Besides that… Please don’t take what happened earlier to heart. I’m
sure you know that my family only reacted that way because they were worried about Greg…
Nevertheless, all of us felt apologetic once we found out that you were framed! So, I really hope that
you’ll forgive us for our suspicions toward you earlier.”
At this moment, Tessa was stunned and didn’t know what to say. It was undeniable that she felt offended
about what had happened previously, but… She couldn’t help but soften up when she saw Kieran’s
sincere expression. Besides that, Gregory was staring at her with an expectant look as well. Not being
able to refuse their requests, she could only nod. “Alright, then.”
“That’s great! Miss Pretty Lady can stay over to accompany me now!” Seeing that Tessa had
compromised, Gregory was so excited that he wanted to prance around in happiness.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNow that Kieran had finished the mission that Nicholas gave him, he quickly packed his stuff and made
his escape.
Meanwhile, she couldn’t help but feel annoyed. Why can’t i endure Greg’s pestering and always end up
being soft-hearted…
Sighing helplessly, she could only take her phone out to send Timothy a text. ‘Timothy, I won’t be coming
home tonight, so do rest well.’
Knowing that Tessa was busy and it wasn’t her first time not coming home at night, Timothy’s reply came
quickly. ‘Alright. Do take care and don’t be too hard on yourself.’
‘Of course. You should go to bed earlier. Goodnight!
After that, Tessa kept her phone before turning to look at Nicholas.
At this moment, Nicholas had walked to the side of the table and poured some warm water into
Gregory’s cup before opening Gregory’s medicine packet to dissolve it in the cup of water.
When Gregory saw the medicine that Nicholas was holding, his face immediately scrunched up into a
frown, causing Tessa to burst into laughter and ask, “Greg, are you afraid of taking your medicine?”
