“Yes!”

Gregory nodded before he looked around and noticed that Tessa was carrying a violin with her, so he

asked curiously. “Did you come here right after your work?*

Tessa smiled gently. “Yeah, I just finished my practice.”

art he had a genuine look on his face as he asked again, “Can you stay over tonight, Miss Pretty

Lady?”

“Well…”

While she was taken aback and looked hesitant, a disappointed look appeared on his face before he

asked with a pitiful voice, “You can’t, huh?”

Although she couldn’t beat seeing him disappointed, she made up her mind and nodded. “Yeah, I’m

sorry, Greg. I need to go home today.”

Upon hearing that, Greogry lowered his head in disappointment and he looked really dejected.

Meanwhile, Nicholas, who couldn’t stand to see Gregory like that, immediately frowned and gave

Kieran a look.

Kieran initially returned Nicholas’ gaze innocently as he didn’t understand what Nicholas was trying to

say, but Nicholas glared at him again.

Right then, Kieran felt his head numbing before he finally caught onto what Nicholas had meant and

chuckled before suggesting, “Miss Reinhart, why don’t you stay over with Gregory tonight? How can

you bear seeing him so dejected when he looks up to you so much? Besides, my brother hasn’t been

able to go to the company to work because of Greg, so I’ll have to manage the company in his place. In

that case, I won’t be able to stay over to take care of Greg, so please remain to take care of him.”

However, Tessa paused. “But, even if you can’t stay, isn’t your brother still here?”

While Kieran was rendered speechless, Nicholas gave himself a facepalm before giving Kieran a sharp

glare.

Immediately, Kieran started to perspire before he shook his head and explained, “No, no, no. That’s

where you’re wrong, Miss Reinhart. Do you really think someone like my brother can take care of Greg

well?”

Why can’t he? She thought in curiosity as Nicholas had been the one taking care of Gregory ever since

he was a baby.

However, Kieran quickly changed the topic before Tessa could say anything. “Let’s not talk about that

anymore. It’s set for tonight, then. Miss Reinhart, I think that you’re a really nice person and you can

definitely take good care of Greg. Besides that… Please don’t take what happened earlier to heart. I’m

sure you know that my family only reacted that way because they were worried about Greg…

Nevertheless, all of us felt apologetic once we found out that you were framed! So, I really hope that

you’ll forgive us for our suspicions toward you earlier.”

At this moment, Tessa was stunned and didn’t know what to say. It was undeniable that she felt

offended about what had happened previously, but… She couldn’t help but soften up when she saw

Kieran’s sincere expression. Besides that, Gregory was staring at her with an expectant look as well.

Not being able to refuse their requests, she could only nod. “Alright, then.”

“That’s great! Miss Pretty Lady can stay over to accompany me now!” Seeing that Tessa had compromised, Gregory was so

excited that he wanted to prance around in happiness.

Now that Kieran had finished the mission that Nicholas gave him, he quickly packed his stuff and made

his escape.

Meanwhile, she couldn’t help but feel annoyed. Why can’t i endure Greg’s pestering and always end up

being soft-hearted…

Sighing helplessly, she could only take her phone out to send Timothy a text. ‘Timothy, I won’t be

coming home tonight, so do rest well.’

Knowing that Tessa was busy and it wasn’t her first time not coming home at night, Timothy’s reply

came quickly. ‘Alright. Do take care and don’t be too hard on yourself.’

‘Of course. You should go to bed earlier. Goodnight!

After that, Tessa kept her phone before turning to look at Nicholas.

At this moment, Nicholas had walked to the side of the table and poured some warm water into

Gregory’s cup before opening Gregory’s medicine packet to dissolve it in the cup of water.

When Gregory saw the medicine that Nicholas was holding, his face immediately scrunched up into a

frown, causing Tessa to burst into laughter and ask, “Greg, are you afraid of taking your medicine?”
