Seeing this dress, Tessa had a vague feeling that something was off. The dresses for the celebration were all provided by the royal family. However, this dress was sent by Count Hobbs in front of Nicholas…
For a moment, she had some suspicions in her heart. Nicholas couldn’t help but step forward and hug her after seeing her staring at the dress in silence. Then, he asked softly, “What’s wrong?”
“It’s nothing.” She snapped out of her thoughts and smiled at Nicholas. At the same time, she had made up her mind that she wouldn’t accept this dress.
Thinking of this, she closed the gift box and handed it to Edward. “Can you please find someone to help me send this gift box back?”
“Sure, Miss Tessa.” Edward nodded and agreed very readily. This was also because he sensed the displeasure emanating from his boss.
At this time, Sofia also sensed that something was wrong and subconsciously looked at Nicholas while saying, “Actually, Freya requested Count Hobbs to send it over,”
“Even so, I cannot accept it.”
Tessa understood Sofia’s intention, but she still shook her head and insisted, “This dress is said to be worth over one hundred thousand. I was just a guest performer invited to the celebration.
It’s unreasonable to accept this dress. Mr. Jackson, please return this dress as soon as possible.” As soon as she finished speaking, Gregory next to her finally understood what was going on and nodded with a stern little face.
“Mommy is right. We can’t accept this dress without merit. Mr. Jackson, please return it quickly, Gregory urged. He then muttered, “Who is this Hobbs guy? It looks like he’s up to no good, giving Mommy gifts for no reason.
He must be harboring evil intentions.” Although his voice was not loud, everyone including Tessa heard it and burst into laughter.
She reached out and affectionately caressed his head. “Who taught you all these things?” “No one taught me. I saw someone act like this on the television program.”
Looking up with his big, bright, and watery eyes, Gregory reminded her in a baby voice, “Mommy, you can’t accept gifts randomly in the future.. You can’t accept gifts from other men except for Daddy.”
Seeing how serious he was, everyone couldn’t help but burst into laughter. Edward cleared his throat. “Young Master Gregory, don’t worry about it. I’ll contact my men right away.”
With that, he nodded at Tessa and went outside to contact his subordinates with his phone.
Seeing this, Tessa held Gregory’s hand and smiled sweetly at Nicholas. “Okay, now that this. matter is taken care of, let’s go back to our home in Vienna.”
After she finished speaking, she took the initiative to hold Nicholas’ arm and her eyes were full of sincere affection. How could he not see that she didn’t want him to think too much about the gift?
At this moment, the frustration he had felt about the dress vanished into thin air and he felt utterly relaxed. It seemed that Tessa wasn’t as dull as he had imagined.
“Okay, let’s go home,” he said. Nicholas indulgently tucked the strands of hair that fell onto her cheek behind her ear and then lowered his head to kiss her pale face.
Teressa’s face flushed red immediately. “Miss Sofia is still here,” she said shyly as she took Gregory’s hand and left. Sofia couldn’t help but laugh as she watched them leave. “She really cares about you,” she said to Nicholas.
She was also happy that her student had found such happiness. Nicholas nodded and agreed with her. “I know.” A gentle and loving smile formed on his face as he watched them walk further ahead.
Soon, they arrived in Vienna. As they left the airport, Sofia asked, “I’m going back to the orchestra. Are you coming with me?” “Not today. We’ll settle down first and I’ll go to the orchestra tomorrow,” Tessa shook her head and said.
Sofia nodded and bid farewell to the two children before getting into a car and leaving. Tessa, together with Nicholas and their two children, went back home..
