    Chapter 958 Father and Son Interaction


    Tessa looked at him in confusion when she heard Nichs’ sudden burst ofughter. ”What’s wrong?”


    ”Nothing. I’m just pleased to receive a gift.” Of course, he wasn’t nning on telling her the truth.


    Otherwise, she would definitely make a big deal out of it and seriously exin her entire thought


    process behind the gift.


    Tessa never thought that he would beguile her, so she answered with a smile, ”At first, I didn’t think to


    prepare a different gift. But after the song was stolen, even if you were fine with it. Besides, I felt I could


    have made more improvements before Richelle stole the score. So, I got this instead.”


    He tightened his arms around her after listening to her side of the story. ”Thank you. I like it a lot.”


    ”I’m d you like it.” She returned his embrace while rubbing her cheek against his chest.


    When the atmosphere was just right, Gregory suddenly eximed from the entrance, ”Oh no! My eyes


    are going blind. Daddy and Mommy are being naughty. You didn’t close the door.”


    Even though he said that, he did not seem abashed at all. If anything, his eyes were wide open as he


    stared at Tessa and Nichs mischievously.


    Meanwhile, Tessa and Nichs jumped at the sudden interruption.


    After they realized it was only Gregory, sheughed while Nichs’ face darkened with a hint of


    resignation.


    Gregory sure knew how to pick the right time to appear.


    ”Weren’t you sleeping? Why did youe here?” He stopped Tessa, who was about to go to Gregory.


    Now, he only wanted to get rid of this little lightbulb so they could continue enjoying each other’s


    company.


    s, Gregory couldn’t really understand that his father was trying to chase him out. So instead, he


    beamed cheerfully as he announced his intention and the reason behind his barging into the room.


    ”I was sleeping, but I suddenly remembered I hadn’t given you my present, Daddy. So, I woke up.”


    As he talked, he dashed toward Nichs while carefully holding the present he had spent a lot of effort


    on. ”Daddy, this is my favorite robot. Now I’m giving it to you. Happy Birthday, Daddy.”


    Nichs’ eyes gazed into his son’s adoring ones, and his annoyance at the abrupt interruption


    dissipated as his heart melted into a puddle.


    ”Thank you, I love it very much.”


    He epted the little robot and ruffled Gregory’s soft ck hair.


    Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    Gregory could feel the joy emanating from Nichs, so he beamed brightly. ”I knew you would like it!”


    Tessa watched on silently as her heart softened at the heartwarming scene between father and son.


    On the other side, Edward had dropped Wanda at a hotel and left.


    Yet, perhaps he had shut the door too loudly, so the knocked-out Wanda woke up the instant he had


    departed.


    As she massaged her sore neck, she sat up on the bed and scanned the hotel room’s decor. Then, it


    didn’t take her long to get out of her dazed state as she put two to two together and figured out just


    what had happened to her. The instant she came to that conclusion, she couldn’t help but feel her


    blood boil.


    That’s too mean of him! How could he knock her out and toss her in a hotel?


    Despite being angry at Nichs’ treatment of her, she still ced the me on Tessa.


    She felt that it must have been Tessa who influenced Nichs’ harsh attitude toward her.


    Otherwise, it was customary for her to stay the night due to the close rtionship between their


    families.


    As for the incident where he knocked her out, she decided to feign ignorance as it didn’t coincide with


    her own rose-tinted world.


    ”One day, I’ll make sure that you disappear from Nichs’ side, Tessa,” she hissed through gritted


    teeth.


    Right at this moment, there was a knock on the door.


    Wanda regained herposure and opened the door but was stunned to see the person who


    knocked.


    Outside the door, Eunice looked up and down at Wanda before smirking. ”I knew you were feigning


    drunk.”


    Wanda felt embarrassed when her lie was seen through, so she avoided Eunice’s cunning gaze.


    Therefore, she pretended she didn’t hear what Eunice had said and asked, ”Miss Eunice, what brings


    you here?”


    ”You’re not going to invite me in? I think we need to have a chat.”


    Eunice didn’t mind her ying the fool; she merely flipped her hair over her shoulder and signaled


    Wanda to invite her in.


    Wanda frowned slightly, but still took a step aside and allowed her entry.


    After they were seated, Eunice made a show by sweeping her gaze across the hotel room and


    mocked, ”I thought you would have stayed in the house since you were childhood friends with


    President Nichs. But look what we have here. Tsk. Tsk.”
