Although he looked calm and collected on the outside, Gregory was actually terrified on
the inside.
Sa
Still, he suppressed his fear.
He was afraid that Tessa would feel worse if he let himself cry.
From the clingy hug, Tessa could feel how uneasy Gregory had been, which made sense since he
must’ve been scared stiff.
Under artificial lighting, both of their faces looked ghastly pale. Even so, there was a loving air in the
room.
This scene was what Nicholas was greeted with when he returned from escorting the doctor out.
Instantly, his heart calmed down.
Just then, Andrew walked by with a glass of warm milk.
“Master Nicholas.”
“I’ll take it to her,” he said, dismissing Andrew after accepting the glass of milk.
He then walked into the room with the glass of warm milk.
Gratitude filled Tessa’s heart as she watched him move closer.
She didn’t dare imagine what would’ve happened if he hadn’t arrived on time.
“Drink this. It’ll help with the shock,” said Nicholas as he handed over the glass.
With a nod, she accepted it.
Once she was done with the glass of milk, she looked at the other two in the room and asked, “Why
were you there?”
“Daddy and I were going to celebrate with you, Miss Tessa,” Gregory sweetly replied as he clung to her
arm. “Who knew that we’d find those bad guys trying to hurt you. Thank goodness you’re alright.”
The response made her feel so much warmer, especially when combined with the sight of Nicholas,
who radiated a sense of security to her.
It was also no wonder her calls to Nicholas never went through that afternoon. They must’ve been on
the plane.
At that thought, she smiled. “Yes, thank goodness for your timely arrival. You’re the reason why I’m
okay now.”
“Yeah! Daddy is the best. He sent all the bad guys running.” Gregory looked at Nicholas with eyes full
of excitement and worship before turning to say to Tessa in a comforting tone, “Don’t worry,
Miss Tessa. I’ll be as strong as Daddy one day, and I’ll protect you then.”
Gregory’s innocent words made her feel like her entire being was filled with cotton cand sensation that
felt both sweet and warm to her.
“Okay. I’ll be waiting for you to protect me, Sweetheart.”
Her fingers swept across the tip of his nose.
And so, the three muttered sweet nothings to each other, just like a family.
There was a type of unspeakable warm harmony that echoed through the room as their shadows were
thrown against the white walls by the dim yellow lights in the room.
After a while, Gregory grew tired as he began to rub his eyes.
In one day, he had gone on a plane ride that spanned over ten hours and received the fright of his life.
It was a miracle he had held on this long.
She moved to bathe Gregory and settle him in his bed, but Nicholas refused to let her do so since she
had just danced with danger today.
He only returned to her room later that evening after Gregory fell asleep.
After quickly cleaning himself up, he got in bed and wrapped his arms around her once more.
As for Tessa, she was feeling at peace with her cheek pressed against his chest and the sound of his
strong heartbeat in her ears.
“Are you still scared?” he asked, looking down at the woman in his embrace.
She nodded. “But I have you now, so I’m not scared.”
There was a pause before she continued, “When it happened, I was so scared. I even wondered how
I’d ever be able to be by your side with a crippled hand.”
He froze. Then, he forced her to look into his eyes.
“I forbid you to think that. No matter what happens, even if you are crippled, I will never allow you to
leave me.”
Her heart skipped when she saw the serious glint in his eyes.
She hugged him back and said, “Okay. No matter what happens from now on, I will never leave you.”
With a satisfied smile on his face, he wrapped his arms tighter around her.
He stayed by her side the entire evening.
Soon, she fell asleep. Perhaps it was because she felt safe with him there.
As he watched her fall into a deep sleep, he gently placed her back on the bed before leaving the
room.
As soon as he left, his entire bearing changed, causing a terrifying aura to hang around him.
He immediately went downstairs, where Edward was waiting for him in the living room,
