Tessa went to select the outfit that she would wear to the concert in rather good spirits. In the end, she
wore a dress in haze blue that had a tad bit of starry decoration before heading to the International
Convention and Exhibition Center.
Meanwhile, Nichs returned to Dynasty Gardens. Upon seeing him, the butler, Andrew, went forward
to greet him, “Master Nichs, Young Master Gregory has been in the music room for the entire day
again.”
Nodding his head, Nichs passed his coat to Andrew before striding off to the music room on the
second floor.
Gregory was inside wiping the violin strings with a special cloth so carefully that he didn’t even notice
when Nichs entered the room. His behavior caused Nichs to frown before calling out in
exasperation, “Greg.”
When Gregory heard the greeting, he looked up before lowering his head to continue what he had
been doing once he saw that it was Nichs. He carefully and mechanically wiped the strings while
treating Nichs as an invisible person and didn’t even give Nichs another nce.
He hadn’t addressed Nichs as ‘Daddy’ for the past few days and apart from their argument a few
days ago, he hadn’t spoken to Nichs either. His son’s lukewarm attitude toward him left Nichs in a
truly bad mood.
In his twenty-odd years, he had been ever victorious, be it in school, the army, or even the corporate
world. He was able to get what he wanted to the point where no one was able to make him feel fear.
Yet, he was now defeated by a child. For the first time in his life, he understood what a setback was.
With a sigh, he slowly approached Gregory and handed him two tickets. “This is for tonight’s orchestra
Are youing along?”
s, Gregory only continued his motions, not even ncing at the tickets that his father handed him.
An undeterred Nichs continued mildly, “No? If you aren’t, I can give these tickets to someone else,
but you must know this is Tessa’s favorite orchestra from Berlin.”
Seemingly catching Nichs’ drift, Gregory looked up at him as if searching for a lie. At the same time,
the little boy was trying to guess whether Tessa would be attending. However, Nichs intentionally
remained silent and only smirked at Gregory in response to the little boy’s question.
After they stared at each other for a while, Gregory found the answer that he wanted from Nichs’
gaze and snatched the tickets. “I’ming.”
When he saw the word ‘Berlin’ on the tickets, Gregory’s eyes brightened in happiness. Whatever music
that Miss Tessa fancied, he would make an effort to attend the concert as well. Then, he would be able
to see Miss Tessa! Who would know whether Miss Tessa would be ted or surprised to see him?
Upon seeing the vigor return to his son’s eyes, Nichs finally let out a breath.
For the past few days, Gregory had been as lifeless as a block of wood as he went about his day
listlessly. The most active thing that he did was shut himself in the music room and space out with
Tessa’s violin in his arms.

“If you want, we can go, but you’ll have to eat first,” Nichs instructed with a deliberately stern face.
Of course, Gregory didn’t care what expression his father now had and only thought about seeing Miss
Tessa again. So, he vigorously nodded. “A promise is a promise!”
With that, he ran down the stairs and sat at the dining table while dering; “I want to eat, Andrew.”
When Andrew heard that Gregory finally wanted to eat, he frantically nodded. “Of course, of course. I’ll
serve you at once, Young Master Gregory.”
After turning back to see that Nichs was no longer furrowing his brows, the weight in Andrew’s heart
was finally lifted. The father and son had at longst reconciled.
Meanwhile, Gregory ate in an enthusiastic manner and epted whatever dish he was given. His pale
face gradually regained its color. It was possibly due to his eagerness to see Tessa that he ate at
lightning speed.
Soon, he was soon so full that his little stomach swelled. After finishing, he lifted his head and
wordlessly stared at Nichs to urge Nichs along.
The concert would start at six in the evening. If they left now, they would be able to make it in time, but
they would bete if they dyed any longer.
