Chapter 1518CHAPTER 1518 A SURPRISE
After a simple exchange of pleasantries, everybody became more familiar with each other. That was
especially true after a few rounds of drinks. Many of them began to relax and let loose.
Looking at the women dancing in the living room, Tessa couldn't help thinking that they were very
energetic.
At this moment, Sabrina finished entertaining the ladies around her and walked over with a glass of
wine in her hand. "What are you looking at, Tess?"
"I'm looking at your friends," Tessa answered truthfully. Then, she sighed with a soft smile. "It sure is
nice to be young."
"Tess, why are you speaking as though you're very old?" Sabrina glanced at Tessa, not knowing
whether to cry or laugh at the statement.
Tessa blinked and grinned. "Compared to you girls, aren't I much older?"
Sabrina fell silent because she did not know how to answer the question. In the end, she decided to
change the topic and brought up the reason she approached Tessa instead. "Tess, can you accompany
me during the makeup session tomorrow morning? I'm too nervous and scared to go alone."
While speaking, she even acted frail and delicate on purpose so that she seemed weak and vulnerable.
Tessa was actually deceived by Sabrina's pretense. She immediately nodded and agreed. "Sure. I'llcome over early tomorrow morning to accompany you."
"Thank you, Tess!" Sabrina hugged Tessa's arm in delight.
novelbinA short while later, Tessa began to feel sleepy and expressed her desire to leave.
Sabrina did not try to stop Tessa from leaving. After all, a pregnant woman needed more rest.
Back at home, Tessa was surprised to see Nicholas sitting on the couch as soon as she walked into the
living room. He seemed to be tipsy.
"Why are you back so early? Has Timothy's party ended?"
"No. I came back early because I missed you." While speaking, Nicholas beckoned her over.
Listening to his sweet words, she walked over with a sweet smile on her face.
They snuggled on the couch in the living room for some time. Then, she abruptly recalled her promise
to Sabrina.
"I'm meeting Sabrina early tomorrow morning. I promised to accompany her during her makeup
session, so I won't be joining you at the wedding venue."
Nicholas' eyes glinted slightly at those words, and he responded with a faint smile. "I'll send you there
tomorrow." "Forget it. It's too early. You should sleep a little more. You haven't been resting well recently." Tessa
shook her head and refused his offer.
It turned out that Timothy had previously made a suggestion for both families to take a vacation
together after the wedding. In order to make time for the trip, Nicholas had been working overtime to
settle some work matters.
Nicholas was pleased to hear his wife's concerns. "It's not a problem. I'll have many chances to catch
up on my rest later."
Seeing her husband's insistence, Tessa did not bother to mention anything else.
They continued chatting for some time, then they retired to their bedroom to rest.
…
The next day, Tessa woke up before dawn. The sky outside was dark at the time.
She had a simple breakfast. After that, Nicholas drove her to meet Sabrina.
"Go on. I'll come and pick you up later." He looked at Tessa. His words contained a double entendre,
but she failed to notice. She simply nodded and went inside the beauty salon.
After entering the building, she discovered that many people were inside the bridal room. Moreover,
every one of them was busy with the tasks at hand.

At this moment, Sabrina was sitting at the dressing table and receiving the full makeup treatment.
When she saw Tessa walking over, she quickly gestured for the makeup artist to stop working. Then,
she happily walked over to greet Tessa. "Tess, you're here."
"Yeah. Hurry up and finish your makeup. I'll wait for you by the side." Tessa observed the half-done
makeup on Sabrina's face and urged with a smile.
Unexpectedly, Sabrina shook her head and refused. "It's fine, I'm in no rush. We can do our makeup
together once you've changed into your clothes."
Hearing those words, Tessa looked confused. "Change my clothes? What clothes?"
"Of course, it's your wedding dress." While speaking, Sabrina asked the staff to bring out the wedding
dress that Tessa had chosen previously.
The sight of the wedding dress instantly left Tessa frozen in shock.
Sabrina's apologetic voice sounded in her ears. "Nicholas wanted to give you a surprise, so he asked
us to keep your wedding a secret from you. Aside from my wedding with Timothy, today is also your
wedding with Nicholas. Hurry up and change into your wedding dress, Tess."
After hearing the explanation, Tessa finally came back to her senses. She felt both angry and amused
at the situation, but she was also extremely touched by their gestures.
