    Chapter 89


    Nichs lowered his thoughtful gaze, looking at Gregory’s expectant expression, then Tessa. He


    nodded and said, “We do have a lot of empty rooms, and it won’t affect much if you stay for the night.


    You can apany Greg while you’re at it, too. Sometimes I get busy and overlook his needs, so


    maybe you can stay and chat with him.”


    Tessa hesitated for a while turning her gaze toward Gregory. The boy’s watery eyes were filled with


    expectation, and one could hardly bear to refuse him.


    She could only sigh helplessly. “All right, then. Thank you very much, President Sawyer.”


    Instantly, Gregory was overjoyed by her reply.


    Later in the day, the three gathered for dinner. Perhaps because of Tessa’s presence, Gregory had an


    exceptionally good appetite.

    He shouldn’t overeat, regardless. The doctor had told them to take care of his digestive system.


    Nichs saw the joy in Gregory’s face, and the coldness in his eyes eased off considerably.


    As for Tessa… Nichs’s eyes turned dark, for he had other reasons for letting her stay, aside from


    taking care of his son.


    Last time, he had to stop halfway through his investigation of her identity, and so many things had


    gotten in the way after that, so he couldn’t find a good opportunity to continue.


    Now that he had allowed Tessa to stay, he naturally wanted to see if he could have another chance to


    confirm who she was.


    They were soon done with dinner, and Nichs went to the study to work. Tessa, on the other hand,


    apanied Gregory as he yed the piano.


    The boy seemed to enjoy ying the piano very much, a sweet smile ever-present on his face.


    Meanwhile, the butler stood on the sidelines and watched him for a long while. He couldn’t help but


    exim, “I’ve never seen Young Master Gregory so happy before. Miss Reinhart, you’ve really brought


    him joy!”


    Tessa shyly smiled and said, “You tter me, Andrew. In reality, Greg is the one who brought me joy.”


    After that, she helped Gregory bathe again, then told him bedtime stories as she tucked him in. When


    he had fallen asleep, she went to the guest room next door to rest.


    However, it was still early for Tessa. She couldn’t sleep even when shey on the bed, so she sat in


    front of the French windows and watched the lights outside.


    The entire Dynasty Gardens was as magnificent as a castle with its glowing lights, and the swimming


    pool in the backyard reflected the lights beautifully.


    So many things had happenedtely, and she was especially annoyed with those involving the


    Reinhart Family. For some reason, she began to entertain the idea of getting into the water to calm


    herself down.


    With that in mind, she turned and walked down the stairs, where she found the butler. “Andrew, can I


    take a dip in the swimming pool?”


    Andrew hesitated for a while. Only Master Nichs and Young Master Gregory had used the swimming


    pool before…


    Still, seeing how much Young Master Gregory likes Miss Reinhart, he will agree to it, won’t he?


    With that in mind, Andrew nodded lightly at Tessa. “Of course. Feel free to do so, Miss Reinhart. I’ll


    inform the staff and make sure no one else is in the area.”


    Tessa smiled as she gave him a nod. “Thank you so much.”


    After that, she walked to the swimming pool outside. She proceeded to take off her coat and tossed it


    on the ground, revealing her slender waist and limbs.


    She was slightly underweight, but she had grown in all the right ces. No undesired fat existed


    anywhere on her body.


    She wore white suspenders, and she began to do some warmups onnd.


    Then, she sshed into the water. It was right in the middle of summer, but the water was quite cool,


    so she gained relief from the heat as soon as she got into the water.


    She swam a fewps, agile like a fish. She would disappear under the surface of the water, then


    resurface for a change of air.


    The dark fog in her heart seemed to have dissipated considerably.


    Meanwhile, Nichs had busied himself the whole night in the study, and when he finallypleted


    the work on hand, fatigue was apparent on his face.


    He raised his slender fingers to rub his temples, then got up and went out of the study. The first thing


    he did was to check on Gregory.


    The child had his eyes closed, fast asleep. His soft face was tinted with adorable peace.


    Nichs leaned in and nted a kiss on the boy’s forehead, after which he tucked in the nket


    before leaving the room.


    As he passed by Tessa’s room, he saw the door tightly shut, so he thought she was asleep. Hence, he


    didn’t linger for long before going down the stairs to fetch himself a ss of water.


    While he was finishing the ss of water, he suddenly heard water sshing outside.


    A frown crept onto his face as he curiously walked over to the French windows for a look. Just then, he


    caught sight of Tessa emerging from the water…
