Always Been Yours Chapter 597
“Of course, he’s my little brother,” Tessa replied to Nicholas with a proud look on her face.
This made him laugh as he thought about how adorable the woman in front of him was.
The three stayed in the apartment for a while before heading to a nearby restaurant for lunch.
During lunch, Tessa asked, “Do any of you want to go anywhere after lunch?”
“I don’t mind going anywhere as long as I’m with you,” Gregory said, smiling sweetly at her.
At this point, she felt that her heart was about to melt from pure adorableness.
She couldn’t help but reach out to pinch his cheeks. “Greg, did you grow up with sweet talkers? Why are you so good at buttering people up?”
“I don’t butter people up! I’m only like this with you.”
His eyes sparkled like black gems shining in the dark when he looked at her.
Just like that, the two broke out in laughter.
Nicholas, who was sitting between them, looked at the two tenderly.
After they played around for a while, Tessa turned to look at him and asked, “What about you? Is there anywhere you want to go?”
He looked at her gently and asked in return, “How about you? Do you have anywhere you want to
go?”
“No.”
“In that case, I’ll decide what we’re going to do this afternoon.”
She naturally agreed to his suggestion.
In the afternoon, Nicholas brought Tessa and Gregory to an art exhibition.
Both of them enjoyed the artistic environment very much.
These paintings, in particular, had sparked the inspiration for her music.
After dinner, the three of them headed home.
Andrew heard some noises and respectfully walked out of the living room to report, “Master Nicholas, the team of stylists is here.”
Nicholas nodded before bringing Tessa and Gregory into the living room.
An hour later, Tessa came down the stairs in an off-white, long-sleeved lace dress, and her already exquisite facial features became even more stunning after makeup.
When Nicholas saw her, he was mesmerized by her beauty.
Then, he quickly stepped forward and took the initiative to help her down the stairs.
Tessa looked at the tall and handsome man who had changed into a black suit before she asked curiously, “Is there anything going on tonight for us to be dressed formally?”
Nicholas smiled and answered casually when he heard her question, “There’s an auction tonight, and I want you to be my plus one.”
After she heard his answer, she merely nodded lightly and didn’t think much of it.
She didn’t question him further, thinking she was simply going to an auction.
At this time, Gregory was also done and hopped down the stairs.
“Miss Tessa, how do I look?”
He happily ran up to Tessa and twirled in front of her to show off his look for tonight.
Gregory had also changed into a small suit tonight, which made him look like a miniature version of Nicholas with the black bow tie on a white collared shirt. Such attire made him look handsome and stylish.
“You look dashing,” she praised him to the skies.
Gregory smiled even brighter when he heard her compliment.
After he got a good look at her, he also sincerely praised her, “Miss Tessa, you are so beautiful tonight.”
This caused Tessa’s smile to deepen even more.
Nicholas, who had been watching the exchange between the two, felt slightly left out.
He left out a light cough, and when she looked over, he pretended to straighten his bowtie.
At first, she was taken aback for a moment before realizing that he wanted to be complimented as
well.
“You’re stunning tonight as well!”
She grinned and hugged his arms as she praised him with smiling eyes.
When he heard her compliment, he couldn’t help but smile, obviously in a good mood.
The auction was held in a five-star hotel.
In the brightly lit ballroom, everyone was walking around with a glass of wine in their hands.
When Nicholas, Tessa, and Gregory showed up, their stunning looks immediately attracted the guests’ attention.
“Oh my, this family looks amazing!”
“That man is so handsome. I’m so envious of that woman next to him.”
“Aw, look at that little boy! He looks so cool and cute!”
Many of the affluent members of society whispered among each other.
Tessa, who had an arm around Nicholas’ elbow, was observing her surroundings, only to notice that many famous musicians were at the scene.
However, she did not think much about it as she quietly followed him, occasionally tilting her head to the side to talk to Gregory.
