Chapter 1083 The Attractive Couple
Being the good-tempered man Nicholas was, he went along with Timothy’s requests. Meanwhile, Tessa stayed on the shore with her feet in the water as she kept an eye on Gregory. She had just recovered a while ago, so she didn’t do anything too strenuous. After they were done playing at the beach, they all returned to the villa. That afternoon, the cook prepared a grand feast consisting primarily of seafood.
However, both Tessa and Gregory were mildly allergic to seafood, so they didn’t try the prawns at all. Instead, they ate mostly fish and oysters. Despite not having the full experience of the meal, both of them were extremely satisfied. Even Timothy was pleased with the meal. Gregory started feeling drowsy after the meal. Timothy thoughtfully brought the young boy upstairs to nap in his room while Tessa and Nicholas sat behind the large window and enjoyed the view outside since they weren’t sleepy.
The weather was perfect that day, and the sand and sea looked like a beautiful gold and blue painting. Every now and then, a few seagulls flew past them. “How gorgeous,” Tessa sighed as she gazed at the perfect view outside the house. “I’m glad you like it,” Nicholas said as he lowered his head to look at the woman in his arms. Then, he bent down to plant a kiss on her lips.
Tessa felt a sweet sensation in her heart. She looked like she was thinking about something for a while before she let out a smile. “I do like this place a lot. Perhaps we could come here to retire after our kids are all grown up,” she suggested. Nicholas couldn’t help but laugh when he heard her words. “You can come here whenever you want. If you like this place, we could move here for good, too,” he replied.
“Now’s not the time to do that. You have a company to run, and I don’t think I’m fit to stay on the island with my condition!” Tessa was speechless in relation to the man’s suggestion, but she also felt warmed by his words. She knew how much Nicholas loved her. “When the child is born, we could visit this place for holidays more frequently. That would be good enough,” Tessa suggested. Nicholas thought about it for a while and figured that she was right.
Even though this tourist spot is considered developed, the facilities can’t be compared to those in the city. Their medical facilities, which are the most important facilities, are not very advanced. That’s enough to put me off.
Both of them talked for a while more before Tessa fell asleep in Nicholas’ arms. Nicholas looked lovingly at his wife who was deep in her sleep. He carefully carried the woman back to the bed before he quietly slipped into bed for a nap.
Later that day, Tessa woke up to find herself in bed. Nicholas wasn’t in the room, but that didn’t bother her. She washed up before heading downstairs to find Nicholas sitting on the couch and going through some documents. His icy features softened when he heard footsteps coming from upstairs. “You’re awake,” he said while looking up.
Tessa nodded and looked around to realize that Gregory and Timothy were nowhere to be seen. “Where’s Gregory and Timothy?” she asked.
“Timothy brought Gregory out to explore the place a while ago. There are a lot of tourist attractions on this island,” Nicholas replied. “Are you interested in taking a walk? I could show you around the island,” he said. Tessa was intrigued by the idea, but she then saw the laptop on the coffee table. “Would I be disturbing your work?” she asked hesitantly.
“No. I’m done with work,” Nicholas uttered as he shut his laptop down. The screen of his laptop clearly showed that he was in the midst of a meeting, and the rest of the higher-ups in the call looked utterly lost when Nicholas turned his laptop off. Edward, in particular, felt rather taken aback. I feel like President Sawyer is becoming more and more of an incapable boss now that he’s married, Edward thought.
Tessa wasn’t aware of any of this, and she happily slipped her arm into Nicholas’ as they headed out. Both of them didn’t have a car, so they simply walked hand-in-hand down the main road, which was positioned right by the ocean. When they looked to their side, they could see the clear ocean water and the sea foam that came with the waves. Everything felt perfect.
There were quite a number of tourists and locals by the beach, and all of them were enjoying themselves. Perhaps Tessa and Nicholas’ good looks were what attracted everyone’s attention—many of the people at the beach noticed the couple the moment they showed up.
