Chapter 183

She inadvertently looked in the direction of the sound, and what she saw through the glass partition

that separated the dry and wet area instantly struck her to the core.

It turned out that Nicholas was behind the glass partition and he was taking a shower.

Tessa instantly returned to her senses. She screamed at the top of her lungs, dropped the toiletries in

her hands and staggered her way out of the bathroom as fast as she could.

Timothy and Gregory, who happened to wake up at that moment, heard her scream, so both of them

rushed to the bathroom, only to see a flushed Tessa leaning against the wall.

“Tess, what happened?” Timothy asked softly, looking at her in puzzlement.

She darted a glance at the two people who had been attracted over by her shouting, feeling so

embarrassed that even her ears flushed crimson. Feigning calm, she patted her knees and replied,

“Nothing happened. I knocked on something.”

Timothy immediately asked, “Is it painful? Do you need me to support you to go take a rest?”

Just then, Nicholas exited from the bathroom in his bathrobes. He calmly glanced at Tessa, which

made her flush even harder. She immediately waved her hand and rejected Timothy’s help. “No need.

There’s no need.”

After saying that, she looked back at Nicholas in frustration and glared at him for not locking the door

when he was taking a shower.

Nicholas blinked innocently at her. He used to stay here alone sometimes, so he had adopted the habit

of not locking the door.

When he woke up that morning, he had forgotten that Tessa was in the apartment as well.

Nevertheless, it was still a negligence on his end.

Timothy merely cast a suspicious look at Tessa’s leg without making any comments but instead, he

said, “Since everyone is up and about, I’ll go and make breakfast.”

With that, he headed over to the kitchen, leaving behind two tall and one short figure standing at the

bathroom entrance. Gregory, who had no idea of what had happened, gently massaged Tessa’s leg

when he had heard that she had knocked on her knee.

Seeing Gregory’s reaction as well as the smug look on Nicholas’ face, Tessa suddenly didn’t know how

she should face the father-son duo, so she mumbled, “I’ll go and give him a hand.”

“Miss Tessa, wait for me!” Gregory immediately went after her when she left.

The child carried out the thought of following Tessa wherever she went to the fullest, tailing after her

like a little chick following its mother.

His eyes sparkled with adoration when he saw Tessa helping up with washing the ingredients in the

kitchen.

After having breakfast, Nicholas was prepared to leave and he turned to Gregory. “Do you want to

leave?”

Gregory hesitated, unwilling to leave his Miss Tessa.

However, he still put on his shoes, although he dilly-dallied while doing so. He turned around to glance

at the woman, who was standing at the door gently gazing at him.

His subconscious reaction was to tell her that he didn’t want to leave and wanted to stay, but the words

just couldn’t escape his lips. Miss Tessa has things to do. I can’t be too clingy and become an

obnoxious kid.

However, Gregory’s gaze still lingered on Tessa as he hoped that she would ask him to stay.

Tessa, in fact, noticed him cautiously feeling her out, but she didn’t ask the kid to stay.

Therefore, Gregory pouted in dejection, which made Tessa feel distressed. She couldn’t help but think,

Am I being too harsh on him?

Nonetheless, when she recalled what Stefania had told her, Tessa forced herself to retract her gaze

from Gregory

After the father and son had left, Timothy, who noticed Tessa’s reluctance and guilt, let out a sigh.

“Tess, didn’t you tell me that we have to fight for what we want? The young master of the Sawyer

Family seems to like you a lot. If you like him as well, you can try to keep him here.” He paused for a

moment before he added, “Even if you are not his teacher, you can still become his friend.”

When Tessa heard that, she felt a lump in her throat. “I can’t be friends with just anyone, and the

Sawyer Family is way out of my league.” She then added inwardly, The Sawyer Family is not someone

we ordinary folks can get close with. Getting acquainted with Gregory itself has been a miraculous

thing, so I should be satisfied with that.
