It really is her…
Edward was a little flustered to see him like this. “President Sawyer, are you okay?”
“I’m fine.” Without turning back, Nichs replied, “You can go back first.”
Feeling slightly worried, Edward hesitated about whether or not he should leave. “But, President
Nichs looked back as his eyes narrowed dangerously. “Go back.”
“Okay.”
Edward couldn’t help but shudder when he saw how Nichs had acted. He was still young and valued
his life, so he quickly left this ce.
After Edward left, Nichs sat on the bench outside the ward for a long time. He had guessed this
answer early on, but he dyed detection because he was rather afraid to face the truth.
He instantly found it ridiculous. The dignified president Sawyer Group, a retired member of the special
forces, had something he was afraid to face?
However, he truly didn’t know how he was supposed to face Tessa.
Once upon a time, he hated the woman he knew that gave birth to Gregory for money, then left him for
unknown reasons to live a happy and carefree life.
Now, she had shown up in his and Gregory’s life that way, and she was even living together with them
like a family now.
What’s the reason for this? Does Tessa know that she’s Gregory’s biological mother? Was it
premeditated or…
As Nichs stood at the door of the ward watching the two mother and son interacting inside, he
couldn’t bring himself to feel hatred. All he felt wereplicated emotions.
Nichs sat outside for a while before he finally decided not to reveal the secret yet. He wanted to see
whether Tessa knew about it. Is her return premeditated?
Solving a mystery didn’t bring him joy, but it made him even more puzzled instead. Now, there was
another question of why she left and returned.
With a cold expression on his face, he entered the ward. Gregory was eating the
custard that Tessa had made. As soon as he saw Nichs, he shouted sweetly, “Daddy!”
Nichs’ gaze swept across Tessa and Gregory before he let out a faint sigh as if nothing had
happened.

“President Sawyer, would you like to try some custard?” she asked.
Nichs answered coldly, “No.”
Seeing that he had left and returned with a cold attitude and a sour expression, she was a little
puzzled. “Did something happen?”
“No.”
Then, he rose to his feet. “Help me to take care of Gregory.”
With that, he strode out of Gregory’s ward without looking back.
Upon seeing this, Tessa felt that Nichs was a little strange today, but she couldn’t tell what was
wrong and decided to keep her mouth shut.
He was the president of Sawyer Group, so it was only natural that he had many problems to solve,
none of which was of her concern.
Feeling a little confused, Gregory asked, “What’s wrong with Daddy?”
Tessa shook her head. “Perhaps too many things are happening in the office. Do you want more
custard?”
“Yes!”
Gregory had recently removed his retainer, so he nodded vigorously. “Miss Tessa, your custard is the
best custard I’ve ever had!”
She couldn’t help butugh. “You have the sweetest little mouth. When I’m gone, no one will eat it
anymore.”
He pursed his lips and smiled. “It’s okay. From now on, just make it for me. Don’t cook it for other kids,
Miss Tessa.”
· A dark figure shed past the door of the ward. Nichs had never left, but he was
standing at the door and eavesdropping on their conversation.
His heart wavered, and he didn’t know whether he should tell Gregory the truth.
In the end, he chose to keep his mouth shut. This matter had yet to be investigated clearly. He didn’t
know how Gregory would react in the face of the truth. He couldn’t
take risks and let Gregory suffer any harm.
On this day, when Tessa was cooking for Gregory at home, her phone rang. She nced at it and
found that it was a strange number. Thinking that it was just an advertisement, she didn’t answer.
However, the other party didn’t seem to give up as they made several consecutive calls. The phone
rang without interruption, as if urging her.
