    Chapter 93


    “What happened?” Nichs followed behind Gregory in confusion and hurriedly made his way to Tessa’s


    room, only to see her lying in bed noticeably with her heavy breathing and abnormally flustered cheeks.


    The man then knitted his eyebrows and patted thedy’s cheek, asking, “Hey, are you alright?” As soon


    as his hand came into contact with her cheek, he realized that she felt a little feverish. Thus, he naturally


    ced his hand on Tessa’s forehead and immediately found out that she had a fever. Furrowing his


    brows, he asked, “How do you feel now?”


    Tessa opened her eyes, barely clinging to her consciousness. When she made sense of what was going


    on, she found herself just inches away from Nichs’s handsome and chiseled face. At that moment,


    she could feel her heart beating rapidly, like a jackhammer.


    Soon, she felt slightly ufortable and immediately tried to get up from the bed, only to go weak in her


    knees and fall forward face down. As she screamed on the inside, she was ready to brace for impact, but


    the next second, she felt someone’s muscr arm wrapped around her waist shortly before she found


    herself in a warm embrace.

    It turned out that Nichs managed to catch Tessa just in time and had his arms wrapped around her in


    his embrace. While Tessa was caught in a trance, she subconsciously looked up and met the man’s


    gaze, finding herself even closer to him. Staring at Nichs’s cold dark gaze that looked like obsidians,


    she somehow felt like there was some spell in his eyes, as if there was a force that could suck her into


    them.


    At the same time, Nichs was caught in a trance as well when he caught the scent of thedy’s


    fragrance. Meanwhile, Tessa’s soft skin on his palm made him feel like there was an electric current that


    ran through his body.


    Soon, he unknowingly tightened his fingers and squeezed his grip, only to let go of thedy shortly after.


    Then, he spoke with an unhappy gaze and told thedy to rest. “Well, you can’t outdo your body’s limits,


    so lie back down and get some rest!” He showed his dominance with his unyielding tone and released


    Tessa at the same time, helping her return to the bed.


    Feeling feverish in her cheeks, Tessa decided to lie back down in bed. After making sure thedy


    listened to him, Nichs bent over and picked Gregory up in his arms, speaking to thetter with a


    gentle voice. “Miss Pretty Lady is not feeling well, so we need to leave her alone and let her rest.”


    Gregory nodded sensibly and wrapped his arms around his father’s neck, suggesting in a childish tone,


    “Well, shouldn’t we get a doctor to check on her? It looks like she is feeling really ufortable, which


    reminds me of myself when I was sick.”


    Nichs replied with an affirmative hum. “I’ll call the doctor right now.” Then, he stepped out of the room


    and rang Ashton up. As soon as the call was answered, Nichs went ahead and asked, “Are you free


    at the moment? I need your help here right now.”


    Thinking it was Gregory who needed his treatment, Ashton instantly agreed. “Sure. I’ll be right there.”


    Fifteen minutester, he showed up and asked in a concerned manner, “Are you alright, Greg?”


    Gregory shook his head. “It’s not me, but Miss Pretty Lady. She is sick!”


    Ashton was stunned, wondering who Miss Pretty Lady was. Shortly after that, his question was


    answered when he followed the father and son to the room, where he saw ady in there. Dumbfounded,


    he gazed at Nichs in puzzlement, with a pair of eyes that looked like they were asking him who it was.


    Nheless, Nichs appeared calm and proceeded to exin, saying, “This is Greg’s violin teacher.”


    Ashton nodded in spite of his furrowed brows and confusion. This isn’t right! Nichs has always kept


    to himself, so why would he allow an outsider to stay in his house? It’s just Greg’s violin teacher, after all.


    Furthermore, it’s ady-a beautifuldy-who gets to lie down in bed in Nichs’s guest room. Hmm.


    Something tells me that thisdy is no ordinary person.


    Needless to say, Ashton spoke nothing about the monologue that was going on inside of him. Soon, he


    examined Tessa’s condition and turned his attention to Nichs.


    “Don’t worry. She’ll be fine. It’s just some normal fever, and she’ll recover shortly with the right medicine.


    In fact, this is not a big deal at all. You shouldn’t have called me for something so trivial. I have bigger


    and better things to do with my talent and profession.”
