Asleep
Once Cole had settled down in the condominium, Nicholas excused himself to head home. “You should
get some rest too,” he told Cole. “You can always call me if you need anything.” After they left, Nicholas
dropped Janet home before returning to his place since he would have to pass by her villa on his way
home. However, there seemed to be a strong sense of resistance that formed a barrier around
Nicholas while they were in the car.
Janet could sense it, but she didn’t waste this opportunity as it was rare for it to be just both of them in
a space together. Furthermore, she wanted to clarify what she had said in the restaurant as she didn’t
want there to be a gap between him and her. “Look, Nicholas. I didn’t mean anything else when I said
those words in the restaurant.”
However, no matter how much she spoke, Nicholas acted as if he couldn’t hear a thing. He rested his
back against the seat and shut his eyes. It looked almost like he was asleep. Janet glared at him,
feeling both angry and sorry for herself simultaneously. She also felt a sense of regret—she shouldn’t
have done what she had done.
Soon enough, the car stopped at the front of the villa. No matter how much Janet didn’t want to leave,
she still had to get out. After she got out of the car, Edward steered the vehicle back to Dynasty
Gardens. Along their trip back to the condominium, Edward had been secretly eyeing Nicholas through
the rearview mirror. Could President Sawyer really be asleep? But doesn’t he always have his guard up
when there are outsiders around?
Little did Edward know that Nicholas was just finding a way to ignore Janet. His upbringing taught him
that it wouldn’t be right to act impolitely, so Nicholas had to find another way to make it seem like Janet
didn’t exist at all. When he returned home, he realized how the house was oddly silent.
“Where’s Gregory, Andrew?” Nicholas turned to ask the other man.
“Young Master Gregory is asleep,” Andrew replied honestly.
“Asleep?” Nicholas was somewhat puzzled. He looked at the time to see that it was only 9.00PM. “Is
Gregory not feeling well?” Nicholas asked with a frown. Finally, he spoke as he strode over to
Gregory’s room. In the past, Gregory would only sleep at such an early hour if he wasn’t feeling well.
Otherwise, the young boy’s energy was enough to last him until 10.00PM at least.
Andrew immediately noticed how Nicholas had misunderstood the situation, so he chased after
Nicholas to explain things. “Young Master Gregory isn’t ill, President Sawyer. Miss Tessa played a
lullaby for Young Master Gregory just now, and he fell asleep while listening to it.”
Nicholas let out an amused scoff as he halted his footsteps. But, once Andrew cleared things up, he
still decided to pay a visit to Gregory’s room anyway.
Gregory was in a deep sleep in the child’s room, and Nicholas simply went to fix the blanket covering
Gregory. Then, he headed to his room, where he washed up before video-calling Tessa.
Tessa felt her cheeks turning red when she saw the man wearing his night robe that revealed his firm,
glowing chest muscles. Nicholas’ eyes lit up when he saw the girl’s rosy cheeks. “Why is your face so
red? Are you not feeling well?” he asked, even though he knew the answer. Tessa coughed as if trying
to hide something. “I’m feeling fine. I just turned the heater on a little too high today.”
She quickly changed the topic after that. “Why are you home so late today?” Nicholas knew that the girl
would get mad if he pushed further on the issue of her red cheeks, so he went along with her topic of
conversation. “A superior who had helped me a lot in the past showed up this afternoon. I treated him
to dinner just now.” He told her about what happened during dinner.
“Did you drink any alcohol?” she asked. He knew that the girl was worried that the alcohol might trigger
his illnesses, so he curled his lips into a handsome smile. “I drank but just a little.”
Nicholas asked about Tessa’s situation in Yvetlava after that. “How have the past two days been for
you?” he asked.
“It has been fine. I’m not used to the food here, and my stomach couldn’t take it at first, but it’s fine
now.” Tessa told him about the place she was at, and she eventually ended with a smile on her face.
“Now, whenever I think of the fact that you and Gregory are coming soon, I feel like my whole body is
filled with energy!”
Nicholas chuckled at her enthusiasm. They chatted for a while before Tessa urged Nicholas to bed. He
didn’t insist on staying up, so they both said their goodnights before ending the call.
