Chapter 1021 Can’t Bring Herself to Disturb
Nichs’ eyes narrowed. Then, he ordered in a cold voice, “This guy might’ve been paid twice. Look
closely and find out both of them when you look into this.” Edward nodded inprehension.
On the other hand, Tessa kept on chatting with Sofia and Simon for a while after dinner before
returning home. Uponing home, she saw Nichs and Gregory sitting side by side on the couch,
holding the sameptop in their hands and tapping away at their keyboards while looking dead serious.
The sight of the identically gorgeous father and son under the light was a delight to the eye, not to
mention that the scene was indescribablyforting. Unable to bring herself to disturb them, Tessa
stood aside, leaning against the cupboard while gazing at them with a smile.
Perhaps because her gaze was too obvious, Nichs soon noticed her presence. “When did youe
back? Why stand there instead ofing over?” he asked. As he spoke, he put hisptop aside and
stood up, walking toward her before naturally taking her by the hand.

Tessa replied with augh, “I came back just a moment ago, but I can’t bring myself to disrupt the
scene of you and Greg together.”
Nichs burst into a chuckle after listening to this.
Just then, Gregory heard their conversation. After putting down hisptop in delight, he jumped out of
the couch. “You’re back, Mommy!” He ran up to Tessa as fast as his short legs could carry him, his
pretty eyes shining like stars.
Instantly captivated by the boy’s clear eyes, Tessa bent down and pinched his plump cheek. “Did you
behave yourself at home this afternoon?”
Gregory puffed out his tiny chest with pride. “Yeah, I did. I was as good as gold.” Tessa giggled in
amusement.
Nichs’ lips also curved into a faint smile before he sat down on the couch with Tessa while taking her
by the hand. “Did today’s music recording go smoothly? Are you tired?”
“Well, it went pretty smoothly,” Tessa replied while pounding her sore legs with her fists. Shemented
helplessly, “I felt okay beforeing back, but now I’m a little tired after standing for a while just now.”
Perhaps because her belly had swelled, she’d often suffered from aching legs and a sore waisttely.
Nichs was instantly pained by the sight of this. “I’ll go run a bath for you. Just take a bathter; I’ll
massage your waist when youe out.”
Without refusing him, Tessa leaned forward with a smile and kissed him on the cheek. “Aww, darling,
that’s so nice of you.”
When Gregory saw this, he immediately came over in jealousy. “Mommy, I can also give you a
massage that’s morefortable than Daddy’s.”
“Is that so? Well, that’s really something, sweetheart.” Tessa cupped the boy’s face in both hands and
kissed his cheek repeatedly.
Gregory smiled happily without forgetting to shoot a triumphant nce at his father. However, he didn’t
realize that thetter was now secretly nning to keep him out of the bedroom.
Some timeter, Tessa finished her bath and came out to see Nichs alone in their bedroom. She
couldn’t help but ask, “Where’s Greg?”
Nichs answered with a straight face, “Timothy just called to ask whether he’d finished his homework.
He’s now catching up on his homework outside, I guess.”
How could Tessa not tell that this guy had purposely arranged for Timothy to do so? “How could you be
jealous of your own son?” She poked him lightly in the ribs in amusement.
Nichs smiled before grabbing her hand. Then, he helped her to bed and said in a gentle voice, “Just
lie down while I give you a massage.”
Tessa nodded before lying down in bed. Soon after that, she felt a pressure on her waist with just the
right strength; it felt sofortable that she almost fell asleep.
Just when she was drifting off to sleep, she heard Gregory’s sweet voice. “Mommy, I’ve finished my
homework, and I’m here to give you a massage,” he said while hurrying to the bed before pounding her
legs gently with his fists. As he did so, he asked her whether the strength was just right. Moreover, he
said with a pained expression, “You must be tired, Mommy.”
When Tessa heard this, her heart melted into a puddle. All at once, she was bubbling with love for the
little boy. The next morning, she got out of bed early.
