Chapter 243
Nevertheless, she still coaxed him. “Get some sleep.”
Under the comfort of her pats on his back, Gregory finally fell asleep, but his fair, tender hands were still firmly grasping Tessa’s clothes.
Helpless, Tessa lay down next to him, and it didn’t take long before she fell asleep too.
After the three men had finished discussing work, they looked at the time and found that it was already past 12.00AM.
The men suddenly glanced at each other and smiled. They were all people who strived for excellence, and it was rare to meet people who they could converse with so well
Nicholas got up and went to Tessa’s room to look for Gregory. As soon as he opened the door, he saw that Tessa was already in deep sleep while hugging the child.
The corners of Nicholas’ lips rose slightly when he looked at the two people sleeping peacefully, and he didn’t wake them up.
After walking out of Tessa’s room, he closed the door, then said to Timothy in a low voice, “I’ll let Gregory sleep here tonight. I’ll pick him up tomorrow.”
“President Sawyer, you don’t have to trouble yourself. It’s okay to stay for one night,” Timothy offered.
“It’s fine.”
With that, Nicholas picked up his belongings and strode out of the apartment.
Early the next morning, Nicholas’ car reappeared in Regal Gardens and he knocked on Tessa’s door.
Tessa was having breakfast with Gregory, and she froze when she saw Nicholas again.
Nicholas explained calmly, “I’m here to pick Gregory up.”
“President Sawyer, come in first. Young Master Gregory is still eating. Have you eaten
yet? Would you like to grab a bite too?” Timothy called out from the table.
“All right.” Nicholas wasn’t reserved either. After changing his shoes, he sat down at the table.
Seeing that he was being so casual and humble, Tessa couldn’t say anything, so she made him a cup of coffee and toasted a few slices of bread for him.
“Thank you,” Nicholas replied in a low voice after accepting the food from Tessa.
After the meal, he wordlessly carried Gregory, who was reluctant to leave Tessa’s arms.
After getting in the car, Gregory was a little upset. “Miss Tessa has already let me sleep at her place. Why did you have to pick me up? Daddy, if you hadn’t come, I could’ve followed her around today, and you could’ve picked me up at night.”
Nicholas had long known that Gregory would be resentful, so he explained patiently, “Miss Tessa’s life isn’t like it was before. She has her own job now. If you follow her like this, she can’t take care of you, and she won’t be able to concentrate on her work. This way, won’t she want to avoid you even more?”
“But, we finally got to see Miss Tessa. I don’t know when I’ll see her again. I just don’t want to leave…” Gregory was still a little upset.
As soon as he woke up today, he saw that he was still in Tessa’s room, wearing her clothes and sleeping in her bed. She even fed him and spoke softly to him. Undoubtedly, it made him extremely happy
He hadn’t been happy for long before his father came to take him away, which left no room for discussion. It was so irritating.
Nicholas’ lips curled up. “There will be other chances.”
Gregory didn’t believe him. Previously, he said Gregory would see her again, but so much time had passed to the point where Tessa was almost ignoring him. “I don’t believe you, unless I head there again tonight.”
“Okay,” Nicholas answered.
Sure enough, that night, Nicholas showed up at Tessa’s house with Gregory again. The reason he gave was that Gregory hadn’t mastered his computer skills yet, and he and Timothy still had work to discuss.
Although Tessa was a little suspicious, they had already shown up, so she couldn’t chase them out of the house. She could only let them in to take the so-called computer lessons and discuss work.
Then, the next day, the third day, and the fourth day…
The father and son used the same excuse to visit their house every night.
Kieran found that his brother seemed to be acting a little differently lately. These days, his temper had improved a lot, and even the employees who made mistakes wouldn’t be scolded, but would at most be asked to redo the work instead.
As the president’s mood had changed for the better, the working atmosphere of the entire company was more relaxed now, and everyone was all smiles.
