Chapter 318
Gregory threw a slight tantrum as he was reluctant to part with Tessa.
Nichs refused without giving it a second thought, “No.”
“Bad Daddy!”
Gregory decided to do it the hard way as he sensed being cute and adorable didn’t work. Unfortunately,
Nichs fell for neither trick, which left him extremely frustrated
Tessa felt highly amused while watching the father and son engage in a battle of wits. She then coaxed
Gregory, “Be good, Gregory. When your daddy returns, he’lle home bearing gifts from me to you.”
Gregory reluctantly hung up the phone as he heard the wonderful news.
Meanwhile, Tessa was feeling buoyant. “I thought Gregory would never forgive me again this time.”
Finally, she sat on the sofa and shared her feelings with Nichs.
Nichs pulled her into hisp and said with a smile, “How could he not forgive
you?”
Besides their blood rtion, they were pretty much inseparable. Gregory had liked her the first time he
saw her… This was all destined a long time ago.
However, she was unaware of Nichs’ thoughts. She sighed, then said with some sorrow, “I don’t
know when I will be able to see him again.”
He couldn’t bear to see her looking sad, so he took her hand and assured her, “Believe me. The day
wille soon.”
She stared at him for a few seconds, then smiled and nodded. The two snuggled and sat quietly in the
living room for a while. The white light cast a shadow on the two figures on the wall–one tall, one short.
It was a cozy image, and even the air was full of sweetness.
Later, she asked, “When are you nning to leave?”
He lowered his head andid a kiss on her brows before answering in a low voice, “I’m going back
tomorrow.”
“Tomorrow..” She didn’t expect it to be so soon, and she was a little reluctant to let him go.
When Nichs noticed this, the corners of his lips curled up, then his demeanor changed, and he said,
“Since we have time now, let’s talk.”
“Talk about what?” She tilted her head up at him, a puzzled look on her face.
“Let’s talk about how you should keep your distance from other men after I return home, and you’re not
allowed to go out drinking with men alone. You’re also not allowed to…”
Nichs fixed his gaze on Tessa and made a lot of demands.
Tessa was amused. “How could I possibly have so many men approaching me?”
He was silent as he stared straight at her.
“Okay, okay. I agree to all of your demands, you silly man,” she replied. She couldn’t withstand the look
he was giving her, so she raised her hands in surrender.
The next morning, Nichs was about to rush to the airport after having breakfast. Tessa reluctantly
helped Nichs pack his clothes in the suitcase. “I’ve packed all the clothes for you. Take a look and
see if anything’s missing.”
When he heard her disappointed voice, he walked over. “There is indeed one thing I forgot to bring with
me.”
“What is it?”
“This—”
As he spoke, he pulled a puzzled Tessa into his arms, then cupped the back of her head with one hand
while lowering his head and kissing her on the lips. This time, this kiss waspletely different from
the previous ones. It contained intense passion, and it swept through every inch of her being.
For a moment, she was dazed. Then, she instantly wrapped both arms around him. It wasn’t until they
were about to run out of oxygen that he let go of her, his breathing
shallow,
At this moment, Tessa’s lips were almost swollen from the kiss. She leaned weakly
against Nichs, her cheeks flushed and her vision blurry, making him want to continue. However, he
used a lot of effort to restrain the urge that was gradually waking up in his body. He found that the self-
control he prided himself on having was nothing in front of her.

The room was silent, and the sorrow of parting lingered in the air. Unfortunately, no matter how
reluctant the two of them were, it was almost time for him to board the ne.
Before he rushed to the airport with his luggage, he gave her a final reminder. “Take care of yourself,
and call me if you encounter any problems.”
