Chapter 983 Getting Rid of Tessa for Good
Tessa hugged him tightly and asked, ”When did you come back?”
”Be careful. Don’t fall.”
Nicholas wrapped his arms around her carefully before responding. ”I only arrived this morning.”
”You didn’t even notify me about you being back. I didn’t know that you would be back so soon.”
Tessa barely calmed herself before finally releasing Nicholas from her version of a bone-crushing hug.
Then, she glanced at Nicholas coquettishly.
”I just wanted to surprise you, that’s all.”
He held Tessa’s hand as he spoke and got into the car with her.
As for Gregory, he was already impatiently waiting for them in the car.
After everyone made themselves comfortable, Edward started the engine and drove them home.
Nicholas cuddled Tessa in the back seat as he lowered his head and kissed her forehead before whispering, ”I missed you so much.”
Although they video-called each other every day, the feeling wasn’t the same as truly being there with the one they loved.
Tessa could feel herself smiling sweetly after she heard Nicholas’ words.
When Gregory saw the two acting so lovey-dovey, he hurriedly covered his eyes with his hands. ”Oh! Mommy, Daddy, you guys are kissing again. No, no, I can’t watch.”
Despite that, Gregory’s actions were the opposite of his words as the gap between his fingers widened little by little until he could take a peek at the adults.
Nicholas and Tessa chuckled with amusement as they looked at Gregory, yet they said nothing.
Tessa hugged Nicholas as she spoke softly, ”I miss you too. Not just me, but the baby misses you too.”
A gentle smile appeared on Nicholas’ face when he heard her soft confession.
”I miss the baby too.”
As he spoke, his hand caressed Tessa’s belly.
Suddenly at this moment, perhaps due to knowing that Daddy had returned, the baby was somewhat active.
In the meantime, Eunice was shocked yet delighted as she watched the black sedan gradually disappear at the end of the street. Nicholas has returned to Vienna!
Regardless, she soon suppressed the joy in her heart as it was slowly replaced by resentment. What’s the point? He only has eyes for Tessa even if he returns to Vienna. I have no chance to get close to him at all!
When she thought of this, she couldn’t help but feel that Tessa’s existence was a great eyesore.
Then, as if she had thought of something, she took out her phone and called Wanda.
”What’s so important that you have to call me in the middle of the night?”
Wanda’s husky voice sounded on the phone, indicating she’d just woken up. The tone in her voice was pretty rude when she asked Eunice that question.
After all, it was only 3-4.00AM in Xerthania now.
At this time, a sudden realization struck Eunice, so she apologized insincerely. ”Sorry, I forgot that it was still midnight on your side. But there’s indeed something important going on here on my side. Nicholas has returned to Vienna.”
”What did you say?! Nicholas is in Vienna?!”
Wanda’s shocked voice rang from the phone.
Eunice nodded and continued, ”Yes. He just came to the Sofia Symphony building to pick up Tessa and Gregory.”
Meanwhile, on the other end of the phone, Wanda’s facial expression was twisted in ire after she heard Eunice’s words. Deep down, the envy and hate she harbored for Tessa grew. What kind of love spell did this sl*t cast upon Nicholas to the point that he ditched his company’s affairs and stayed abroad all the time?!
At this very moment, Wanda could no longer bear Tessa’s existence. If things go on like this, how would she still have a chance to get married to Nicholas?!
As she thought of that, a malicious intent flickered in her eyes, and she interrogated Eunice, ”You said you wanted to deal with Tessa before, so have you figured out a plan?”
”Originally, I had an idea. But now that Nicholas has come here, it’s difficult to execute the plan.”
”Nicholas isn’t a big issue. I can help you lure him away from Tessa.”
Wanda decisively lent Eunice a helping hand, for she desperately wanted Tessa to disappear from the surface of the earth.
Meanwhile, Tessa was clueless about the plan that the two conniving women were cooking up against her.
After she and Nicholas returned home, they had a cozy meal together with Gregory.
During the meal, Tessa asked Nicholas about the situation in Xerthania.
”How are your parents and grandpa?”
”They’re doing pretty fine, except they’re missing Greg,” replied Nicholas, being frank with Tessa about the situation in Xerthania.
Tessa felt a little guilty after she heard what Nicholas had said. ”I’ll bring Greg back when I’m done with my album.”
As her loving and supportive husband, he naturally agreed to her remark.
The family of three later sat and cuddled up with each other on the couch in the living room after dinner.
Tessa even played Nicholas the songs she’d composed during this period.
It was like an auditory feast for the father and son as they listened to the melodic and lively sound of the violin as Tessa performed before them.
