“Yes, just the two of us.” Nicholas nodded, but as though he was worried that Tessa would
misunderstand, he quickly explained earnestly, “This client is one of the major development projects
that the company has set its sights on for the second half of the year. This project can not only broaden
our market overseas, but it can also add another industry under the Sawyer Group’s belt. Hayley
knows some insider information, and since both our companies want to cooperate, I have to meet up
with her.”
After hearing that Nicholas had broken down into details of his company’s development plans for the
second half of the year, Tessa couldn’t help but giggle. She knew that he said so much just to put her
mind at ease, and because of this, she suddenly felt that she was being taken seriously.
Even though his explanation touched her, there was still a trace of doubt in her heart.
“Nicholas, I have a question.”
“What is it?”
“I think, be it Roselle or Hayley, they have better qualifications than me, but why are you only interested
in me?” After saying that, she fixed her gaze on him with an expectant look in her eyes.
He raised his brows in surprise as he wasn’t expecting her to ask such a question, and he asked
himself, Why?
After he pondered over it for a while, something came into his mind, and he said, “I’ve never been
involved in a relationship before this, so there are many things which I don’t really understand. But now
I know that regardless of how outstanding Roselle and Hayley are, I’m just following my heart in this.
My heart says it’s you that it wants, so I want only you by my side.” At this point, he gazed deeply into
Tessa’s eyes through the screen. “When I see you, it makes me feel like you’re the only one for me in
this life.”
Thump, thump.
At that moment, she could feel her heart beating against her chest, and after a few seconds, she
composed herself. Then, finally, she couldn’t help but murmur, “Yet here you are, saying that you know
nothing about relationships, but nobody will believe it if they see how well you flirt.”
“What did you say?” Even though he heard her saying something, he couldn’t clearly hear what she
said.
She was startled as she didn’t think she actually said aloud what she was thinking.
“Uh, nothing.” In order to avoid being questioned, she hurriedly changed the topic. “It’s getting late for
you. Aren’t you going to prepare to meet your client?”
He pretended not to notice her sudden subject change and glanced down at his watch. “It’s still early.
How was your practice today? Did anyone cause you any problems?” he asked in concern.
“I’m Miss Hathaway’s protégé. Nobody dares to make any trouble for me.”
The proud and charming look she had made it hard for Nicholas to look away, and he thought that she
was so attractive no matter how much he looked at her.
Then, they chatted for a little more, mainly with Tessa speaking about her learning experience and the
fun things she observed from the band. Later, they said goodnight to each other and hung up.
As Tessa lay in bed to rest, Nicholas contacted Hayley to make an appointment for tonight.
Hayley and Nicholas sat inside facing each other in a traditionally decorated VIP room of a Chinese
restaurant.
Hayley had spent three hours solely dressing up for dinner tonight, but when she saw the aloof man in
front of her, a sense of frustration started to build up in her. Right now, she had to admit that her charm,
which she was so proud of in the past, was nothing at all in his eyes.
He gestured for the menu from the waiter and passed it to her, utterly oblivious to her train of thought.
“Please order what you would like to eat, Miss Stone.”
Looking at the menu in front of her, she blinked and accepted it. Since she couldn’t attract Nicholas
with her beauty, then she would show him the virtuous side of herself.
After placing the order, she turned to him with a smile. “I ordered a few dishes that you like, which I
usually hear from Mrs. Sawyer, and I also informed the restaurant not to make it too spicy.”
He nodded expressionlessly and went straight to the point. “How much do you know about the
project?”
