    Chapter 638


    The look on Gregory’s face made it evident that he was just waiting for Tessa to praise him. Tessa


    couldn’t bear to let the kid down, so she gave him a flying kiss through the phone. “Mwah! I’ll be waiting


    for you toe over and perform for me.”


    Gregory’s cheeks were flushed with shyness when he heard what the woman said. Then, with his tiny


    hands holding the phone, he responded childishly. “I want to give you a kiss too.” Then, he pouted his


    soft lips and ced them close to the phone’s camera. Tessa felt like her heart had melted into a


    puddle at that moment. “How could you be so adorable, Gregory?!” she cried as she kissed him again


    through the phone.


    They were so immersed in the conversation that they had forgotten entirely about Nichs. He sat by


    the side and watched them interacting with a smile on his face. His eyes were full of love for both of


    them. After a while, Tessa and Gregory were finally done showering one another with love. Only then


    did Nichs manage to get his phone back from Gregory. A look of sympathy shed across his eyes


    when he saw Tessa’s skinny face through the call. “You need to take care of your health and eat more.”


    Tessa’s face had been tiny, to begin with, but she looked skinnier than ever now. “I know. Don’t worry


    about it.” Tessa’s eyes twinkled as she looked at Nichs, and the smile on her face seemed


    especially sweet. Yet, for some reason, Nichs felt somewhat exasperated and annoyed upon


    hearing her response. “You always tell me that you know how to care for yourself, but you forget about


    it the moment you end the call,” he grumbled.


    “I promise to take care of myself this time. The most tiring period of practice is over now, anyway.”


    Tessa knew that Nichs was worried about her, so sheforted him in a gentle tone. “Our teacher


    told us that our practice schedules will be a little less packed from now on,” she said.


    Nichs smiled upon hearing this. He wasn’t genuinely mad at her-he just wanted her to know how


    much he cared about her health. She quickly changed the topic when she saw that he was smiling


    again. “I’m nning to bring the violin that you and Timothy bought me over to Mr. Louis for it to be


    serviced.”


    “Sure. I’ll tell the caretaker to send you over,” Nichs uttered with a nod. After that, they chatted for a


    while before Tessa urged Nichs to get some rest. It was gettingte for him, after all.


    He was also starting to feel tired, so he got Gregory to say goodnight to Tessa before they ended the


    call. After the call, Tessa tidied her ce up a little before she brought her violin out for orchestra


    practice. That evening, she brought three violins over to Louis’ manor after practice was over.


    “What brings you here?” Louis gazed at Tessa puzzledly. He knew that Tessa had been extremely busy


    in recent days. She would drop by during her off days in the past, but she had barely shown up recently


    since she had been so busy.


    “I have a favor to ask from you today, Mr. Louis.” She beamed as she ced the violins on the desk.


    He took a look at them before responding with a disdainful scoff. “I knew you wouldn’te for no


    reason,” he spoke yfully. Despite this, he stood up and walked over to check the instruments. “You


    didn’t destroy all three of these violins, did you?”

    “They’re not spoiled at all. I just wanted you to service them a little, Mr. Louis.” Tessa hastily


    exined herself before opening the violin cases for all three of them.


    All three violins had unique styles, but Louis quickly noticed the distinct details in each of them. Thest


    violin particrly excited Louis when he first saw it. “This is one of Stradivarius violins!” He stared at


    Tessa in disbelief.


    As a famous luthier himself, he was familiar with famous violinists all over the world. A violin as unique


    as Stradivari’s violin was one that any violinist would hope to own in their lifetime. Louis previously


    heard that someone had kept a Stradivarius violin as a keepsake for themselves. Still, he would have


    never expected to see it with Tessa.


    He ran his fingers gently across the violin’s surface before he gazed at Tessa. “Can I try ying this?”
