    Chapter 976 Fetal Movement


    Richelle sneered, obviously not believing a single word that dripped from Susan’s poisonous lips. On


    the other hand, Susan dropped the entire topic even though her eyes showed slight traces of


    frustration. Since this woman misunderstood me for being jealous of Tessa, so be it. As for me, I’m


    likely to expose myself if I continue this topic.


    “Fine, then. I won’t say anything anymore since you aren’t bothered by this. I hope you can make it to


    the top and shine bright in the orchestra soon.”


    When Richelle heard that Susan sounded somewhat sincere, she thought Susan had given up on


    provoking her into acting rashly toward Tessa. Then, she kindly advised Susan, saying, “You should


    cheer up too. Stop being hostile toward Tessa.”


    Although Susan maintained a polite smile on the surface, indicating she understood where Richelle


    wasing from, deep down, she actually felt utter disdain for the other woman. What a foolish


    woman. Unlike you, who gets afraid after failing just once, I always strive for what I want. Also, only an


    idiotic woman like you will be willing to forfeit the chance to be more than ordinary. On the


    contrary, I will do everything in my power to be extraordinary.


    On this day, Remus had called for the Sawyer Family to gather for a meal when he remembered that


    they hadn’t had a meal together even though Nichs had returned for so long.


    During the meal, Stefania nagged Nichs, “Why didn’t you bring Greg back with you when you


    returned to Xerthania?”


    “Greg has sses, so Tessa said she’ll bring him back to see you all when it’s the holiday season.”


    Nichs ryed Tessa’s regards.


    Although the elders of the Sawyers spoke nothing of it outwardly, inwardly, they were all pleased with


    Tessa’s consideration.


    Suddenly, Remus said, “She’s been pregnant for five months or so now, right? What’s the matter? Is


    she not nning to return to Xerthania during her pregnancy?”


    Stefania was also hit with a sudden realization when she heard this, and she inquired with a frown,


    “Does she have ns to give birth in Xerthania?”


    “It’s still far too early to discuss this matter. The baby is only five months old. So there’s no rush.”


    Although Nichs was aware of their thoughts, he also knew now was a crucial moment for Tessa. He


    didn’t want to hold her up for the baby’s sake.


    Unfortunately, Stefania didn’t know what the hold-up was.


    Hence, she felt very dissatisfied after she heard Nichs’ words. “How is it not a rush? Could it be that


    you n to only let her return to Xerthania when she’s seven or eight months pregnant?”


    “It’s not a big deal whether she’s seven or eight months pregnant. I’ll make proper arrangements for


    everything. I won’t let any mishaps happen to her and the baby,” Nichs said with great confidence.


    After all, he was genuinely convinced that he would be able to handle anything,e hell or high


    water.


    When they saw that Nichs had made such bold promations, Stefania and Remus couldn’t voice


    their dissatisfaction, no matter how badly they wished.


    Meanwhile, Tessa had no clue about what was happening in the Sawyer Residence.


    She was so swamped with the release of her new album, training, and taking care of Gregory that she


    was as busy as a bee.


    Now that she had almostpleted herpositions, another daily task added to her usual musical


    training: practicing those new songs.


    In addition, perhaps due to the baby growing in her belly, she became easily fatigued despite only


    working for a full day.


    After dinner, Gregory was distraught when he saw Tessa sitting on the couch tiredly.


    “Mommy, let me give you a massage. You won’t feel tired after the massage.”


    As he spoke, he knelt on the couch and helped Tessa to massage her arm.


    When she regarded the severe look on the little guy’s face, she felt highly gratified and touched to have


    such an attentive son.


    “You are such a kind child, sweetheart. You even know how to care for me now.”


    She didn’t stop him. Instead, she praised the little guy greatly for his loving gesture.


    Gregory’s face blushed when he heard Tessa’spliment, looking adorable.


    Then, he looked happily at Tessa and asked, “Mommy, do you feel better?”


    “I’m feeling much better. Thank you, Greg,” Tessa replied. Then, suddenly, her facial expression


    stiffened—an inconceivable look shed in her eyes as if she was amazed by something.


    Gregory was far from blind, so he immediately asked in confusion, “What’s wrong, Mommy?”

    “Greg, the baby moved just now.”


    When Tessa came back to her senses, she excitedly shared the happy news with the little guy.


    However, Gregory didn’t understand what Tessa’s words meant. So, the befuddlement in his eyes only


    grew stronger as he pressed for answers, “The baby moved? What does that mean, Mommy?”


    The moment sheid her eyes on his clearly bewildered ones, she realized she didn’t know how to


    exin this phenomenon to him.


    Coincidentally, at this moment, she once again felt the baby move. Thus, she instantly grabbed


    Gregory’s hand and ced it on her belly.


    Gregory’s eyes widened in surprise as he felt the movement against his palm.


    “Mommy, y-your belly is kicking my hand,” he stammered with excitement.


    At once, Tessa burst intoughter as she looked at Gregory’s dumbfounded state. “It’s not my belly


    that’s kicking your hand. That’s your baby sister saying hello to you.”


    “Baby sister?”


    Gregory was stunned for a moment. Then, finally, as if he had an epiphany, he chirped happily, “Baby


    sister, are you saying hello to me because you know that I’m your brother?”
