Chapter 715 An Important Place in Her Heart
After hearing about Tessa’s night, Nicholas asked in confusion, “Why would you go to an auction?”
“Your grandfather’s birthday is just around the corner, and I know he is in love with antique collections.
So, I went to the auction to see if there was anything I could find, which I did, to my surprise.”
Upon listening to the lady’s explanation, Nicholas was happy on the inside. In fact, he did mention
Remus’ birthday feast to her in the past but hadn’t discussed it with her, thinking they both had a tacit
understanding about the matter. While Tessa hadn’t brought Remus’ birthday up since then, he didn’t
expect her to keep that in mind despite his grandfather’s dislike for her.
I can’t imagine she took the time and trouble to learn what Grandpa likes so that she could prepare him
a present, although she isn’t exactly his favorite all the time. At that moment, Nicholas was delighted,
thinking he had an important place in Tessa’s heart. “That’s so sweet of you.” He looked at the lady with
a sentimental gaze.
Meanwhile, Tessa, who appeared to be slightly bashful with the man’s loving eyes, pursed her lips and
smiled. “I’ll get someone to deliver the present tomorrow, so please don’t forget to sign for the package
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwhen it arrives.”
Nicholas nodded. “Alright, I’ll tell Edward to keep an eye out for its arrival.”
As the couple continued their chat, Gregory’s unhappy voice was suddenly heard. “You’re such a
naughty boy, Daddy. Why do you always leave me out when you talk to Miss Tessa?” The child then
forcibly made some space for himself so that he could see Tessa on the screen. “I miss you, Miss
Tessa.”
“I miss you too, Greg. Have you been a good boy recently?”
“Of course I have. I haven’t forgotten what you told me, Miss Tessa.”
While the child and the lady wouldn’t stop going on and on about how much they missed each other,
Nicholas began to feel annoyed with his son. I guess I must call Tessa only when I’m in the office next
time.
However, Gregory had no idea that his father had other plans to keep him from interrupting his call with
Tessa ever again. Enjoying his conversation with Tessa, he wouldn’t stop bringing up new subjects with
her and even played her a song on the violin. Needless to say, Tessa also corrected the mistakes he
made at the same time, but as the night was getting late, she started to feel sleepy.
Seeing Tessa repeatedly yawning, Nicholas felt sympathetic toward her. Thus, he snatched the phone
away from Gregory and said, “Alright, that’s enough for today. Miss Tessa needs to rest now, so you
can talk to her next time.”
While Gregory’s smile on his face faded immediately, Tessa couldn’t bear to let the child down. “It’s
alright. I can sleep later.”
“No way! That’s going to take a toll on your productivity the next day, and more importantly, it’ll break
my heart.” Nicholas stared at Tessa in a commanding manner.
When Tessa heard Nicholas’ words, her heart melted. Not long after that, Gregory came closer to the
camera and sensibly said, “Hurry up and take some rest, Miss Tessa. I don’t want you to tire yourself
out.”
“Alright, I’ll go to bed now. Remember, Gregory. Be a good boy.” Tessa hung up the call as soon as she
finished her words and lay in bed.
…
The next day, Tessa left home early in the morning. Upon delivering the classic literature book to
Nicholas, she made her way to her orchestra training and resumed her hectic days as usual. On the
other hand, Nicholas was also occupied by his work every day like he usually was. As time went by, the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmday on which Remus’ birthday feast was held finally arrived.
The birthday feast was held at a six-star hotel that belonged to the Sawyer Group because there was a
banquet hall that could house over five hundred people. For the sake of the grand occasion, the place
had been beautifully decorated ahead as the Sawyer Family took the event seriously. While everyone
in the family was there, Tobias and his wife were the first to enter the banquet hall before the rest of the
family members did.
In the meantime, the waiters, who were each wearing a tuxedo, appeared to be busy with the
arrangements in the banquet hall. While some of them were going through the silverware, the others
were inspecting the place to ensure nothing would go wrong during the feast.
On the other hand, the chefs in the kitchen were occupied with the food preparation as all of them were
top-notch cooks and bakers who were specially hired from overseas. Apart from that, all the ingredients
and wine were also freshly delivered from overseas by air.
Before the clock even struck ten, the hotel was already crowded with guests and luxury cars, along with
the press and reporters.
