Chapter 845 The Only Woman Who Is Good Enough for Him
Despite saying so, she cursed Edward at full blast inwardly. What a tactless moron!
Edward was unaware of what she was thinking, so he thought that she didn’t mind. After nodding slightly, he set the table for Nicholas, saying, “Your meal is ready, President Sawyer.”
“I got it.” Nicholas nodded. Then, he put aside his work and started eating.
Wanda felt disturbed when she saw that the man had started eating. Nicholas wasn’t like this in the past, but he’s willing to change his habits for a woman. The more she thought about it, the more she found it unacceptable. She purposely asked, “Nicholas, I heard that Miss Reinhart took Greg to Vienna. Won’t you be reluctant to part with them now that you guys are living apart from each other?”
Nicholas frowned slightly; he didn’t like to discuss his private affairs with someone else. Still, he replied flatly out of courtesy, “I won’t.”
Naturally, Wanda noticed the note of displeasure in his voice, but she pretended not to notice it. Propping her chin in her hand, she said in a grave tone, “If it were me, I wouldn’t be willing to live apart from the person I love. And besides, I hear that it’s difficult for long-distance relationships to stand any tests most of the time.”
Hearing her meaningful words, Nicholas looked vaguely displeased. Furthermore, he didn’t feel like talking about Tessa with this woman, so he replied coldly, “That’s a matter between my wife and me, so it’s none of your concern, Miss Muller.” With that, he immediately took out his cell phone and gave Tessa a video call.
Tessa and Gregory had just finished their evening practice. When they got a video call from Nicholas, they were very happy. “Daddy, you’re free at last! I miss you so much,” Gregory said.
“I miss you too.” Nicholas looked at Gregory tenderly before resting his eyes on Tessa. He asked caringly, “How are you these days?”
“We’re fine. Miss Sofia even praised Greg for making great progress today.” Tessa summarized how their daily life had been over the past few days.
Nicholas listened to her story with great interest. Then, he said with a smile, “Greg, since you’ve made progress, why don’t you play a tune for me?”
“Give me a minute, then,” Gregory replied. With that, he turned around and ran to the music room to get his violin.
Soon after that, a cheerful melody flowed from the phone.
Contrary to the family’s cozy atmosphere over here, Wanda was totally ignored. However, she was preoccupied with what Nicholas had said just now. My wife and me?! Did he just refer to Tessa as his wife?! No, I don’t believe that they’re married. I feel that this is more like a warning he gives me. Even so, I won’t give up. I’m the only woman who’s good enough for him!
Nicholas was unaware of these things. After Gregory finished playing the tune, he clapped his hands and praised the boy, saying, “You’ve indeed improved a lot compared to the past.”
Gregory looked at him delightedly with dark, starry eyes. “I’ll play even better in the future. When that happens, I’ll play the violin for you again.”
Just when the family of three were having a pleasant conversation, Wanda’s voice sounded deliberately from behind Nicholas. “Nicholas, are you talking to Greg and Miss Reinhart over the phone? Can I say hi to them?” As she spoke, she came to Nicholas’ side and leaned close to him on purpose.
Nicholas’ face instantly darkened with a frown. “What are you doing?” He stood up with a grim expression and distanced himself from Wanda with the phone in his hand.
The smile on Wanda’s face froze somewhat when she saw how cool and distant the man was. Is he so anxious to stay away from me because he fears that Tessa might get the wrong idea? In an instant, she was inwardly jealous of Tessa. She couldn’t understand what made her inferior to Tessa. The more she thought about it, the more unhappy she was. However, she pretended to be apologetic, saying, “Sorry, but I don’t mean anything else. I just wanted to talk to Greg for a second just now. I hope that Miss Reinhart won’t get the wrong idea.”
Tessa and Gregory were startled for a moment over the phone.
