Chapter 590 As Nicholas had noticed that her lips were very dry, he called out softly, “Tessa. wake up and have some
water.”
“Okay…” she answered, half-conscious, but her entire body was limp, and she had no strength at all,
In the end, with his help, she leaned on his chest weakly. This was then that he noticed her scalding
temperature, whereupon he furrowed his brows tightly. As he watched her take small sips of water with
her abnormally flushed face, his heart was filled with worry.
When she was done, Nicholas got up and went into the bathroom. A few minutes later, he came out with
a basin of warm water to physically cool down Tessa’s body.
Under the light, the man gently removed the girl’s pajamas, and her fair skin appeared before him, but he
didn’t have any indecent thoughts as he cooled down her body with the warm towel.

The peaceful look on her face as she slept made him breathe a sigh of relief, and he cleared up the
things before getting into the bed and hugging her to sleep.
The next morning when Tessa woke up, she felt much better, but her body still felt weak. Beside her, she
heard Nicholas’ husky voice asking, “How are you feeling?”
“Not too bad. Thanks for taking care of me last night.”
Turning around, she hugged him as happiness washed over her. Even though she was in a daze from
the fever last night, she was still a little conscious and knew that this man had taken care of her for most
of the night, and that was why she could recover so quickly.
Patting her back gently, he asked with a smile, “Isn’t this my responsibility?”
His words added more sweetness to the smile on her face. A short while later when they were done
washing up, they went downstairs hand-in-hand for breakfast. Seated in the living room, Gregory trotted
over upon seeing Tessa.
“Are you feeling better, Miss Tessa?” Hugging her thigh, he lifted his small head and looked at her with
eyes filled with concern.
Meeting his concerned eyes, she felt a warm whirlpool in her chest. “I’m feeling much better.
Thanks for your concern, Sweetheart.”
Just then, the butler came and said politely, “Sir, Ma’am, breakfast is ready.”
Nicholas acknowledged it with a nod and led Tessa to the table to eat. While eating, he glanced at Tessa,
who still seemed a little pale, and asked. “Are you planning to go to the orchestra alter breakfast?”
Nodding, she answered, “There’s practice today, so I have to be there for sure.”
The words had just left her lips when it was met with his disapproval. “You’ve just recovered. Just skip
the day and ask for leave from your teacher.”
“That’s not a good idea. I just joined Group Two and shouldn’t ask for leave.” She turned down his idea

Peeved, Nicholas thought that she didn’t care about her own health. “I know that you want to work hard,
but not by disregarding your health!” Pulling a long face, he cast her a disgruntled look.
Despite sensing his anger, she still wanted to go to the orchestra.
“Don’t worry. I’m just feeling a little dizzy. It’s not a big deal, so don’t be mad,” she said with a pleasing
smile.
Nicholas’ face was tense, and his eyes were shrouded with disapproval. Out of wits, she went over to
coax him, telling him about her current situation. “I’ve just become the concertmaster in Group Two, and
many people are watching me. If I don’t do well, that will easily invite criticism against me, and it will even
implicate my teacher’s authority at that time. That’s why I can’t do that,” she said while she placed her
arms around his neck and kissed him on the cheek. “Don’t be mad, okay?”
Seeing this, Gregory chirped in, “Daddy, you should believe in Miss Tessa and not be unreasonable.”
Meeting his son’s reproachful eyes, Nicholas couldn’t be sure if he should laugh or complain about it.
