    “Yes, just the two of us.” Nichs nodded, but as though he was worried that Tessa would


    misunderstand, he quickly exined earnestly, “This client is one of the major development projects


    that thepany has set its sights on for the second half of the year. This project can not only broaden


    our market overseas, but it can also add another industry under the Sawyer Group’s belt. Hayley


    knows some insider information, and since both ourpanies want to cooperate, I have to meet up


    with her.”


    After hearing that Nichs had broken down into details of hispany’s development ns for the


    second half of the year, Tessa couldn’t help but giggle. She knew that he said so much just to put her


    mind at ease, and because of this, she suddenly felt that she was being taken seriously.


    Even though his exnation touched her, there was still a trace of doubt in her heart.


    “Nichs, I have a question.”


    “What is it?”


    “I think, be it Roselle or Hayley, they have better qualifications than me, but why are you only interested


    in me?” After saying that, she fixed her gaze on him with an expectant look in her eyes.


    He raised his brows in surprise as he wasn’t expecting her to ask such a question, and he asked


    himself, Why?


    After he pondered over it for a while, something came into his mind, and he said, “I’ve never been


    involved in a rtionship before this, so there are many things which I don’t really understand. But now


    I know that regardless of how outstanding Roselle and Hayley are, I’m just following my heart in this.


    My heart says it’s you that it wants, so I want only you by my side.” At this point, he gazed deeply into


    Tessa’s eyes through the screen. “When I see you, it makes me feel like you’re the only one for me in


    this life.”


    Thump, thump.


    At that moment, she could feel her heart beating against her chest, and after a few seconds, she


    composed herself. Then, finally, she couldn’t help but murmur, “Yet here you are, saying that you know


    nothing about rtionships, but nobody will believe it if they see how well you flirt.”


    “What did you say?” Even though he heard her saying something, he couldn’t clearly hear what she


    said.


    She was startled as she didn’t think she actually said aloud what she was thinking.


    “Uh, nothing.” In order to avoid being questioned, she hurriedly changed the topic. “It’s gettingte for


    you. Aren’t you going to prepare to meet your client?”


    He pretended not to notice her sudden subject change and nced down at his watch. “It’s still early.


    How was your practice today? Did anyone cause you any problems?” he asked in concern.


    “I’m Miss Hathaway’s protégé. Nobody dares to make any trouble for me.”


    The proud and charming look she had made it hard for Nichs to look away, and he thought that she


    was so attractive no matter how much he looked at her.


    Then, they chatted for a little more, mainly with Tessa speaking about her learning experience and the


    fun things she observed from the band. Later, they said goodnight to each other and hung up.


    As Tessay in bed to rest, Nichs contacted Hayley to make an appointment for tonight.


    Hayley and Nichs sat inside facing each other in a traditionally decorated VIP room of a Chinese


    restaurant.

    Hayley had spent three hours solely dressing up for dinner tonight, but when she saw the aloof man in


    front of her, a sense of frustration started to build up in her. Right now, she had to admit that her charm,


    which she was so proud of in the past, was nothing at all in his eyes.


    He gestured for the menu from the waiter and passed it to her, utterly oblivious to her train of thought.


    “Please order what you would like to eat, Miss Stone.”


    Looking at the menu in front of her, she blinked and epted it. Since she couldn’t attract Nichs


    with her beauty, then she would show him the virtuous side of herself.


    After cing the order, she turned to him with a smile. “I ordered a few dishes that you like, which I


    usually hear from Mrs. Sawyer, and I also informed the restaurant not to make it too spicy.”


    He nodded expressionlessly and went straight to the point. “How much do you know about the


    project?”
