Always Been Yours Chapter 1143


    Chapter 1143 Calligraphy Competition


    Tessa felt like she was about to melt when she saw the look on Gregory’s face. Gregory started


    pestering his mother after that. “What did Daddy give you this time, Mommy? Let’s not take his gift. I’ll


    buy one for you. It’ll be better than what Daddy gave you.”


    Tessa burst out inughter when she heard Gregory’s words. In the end, she had no choice but to tell


    Gregory the truth. “Your father didn’t give me anything. I simply found out that my album sales are


    doing really well and that I’ve received a lot of goodments online. That was why I was so happy.”


    “Woah. You’re amazing, Mommy!” Gregory pped his hands in celebration of what Tessa said. While


    they were talking to each other, Gregory’s calligraphy teacher walked into the hall. His teacher, Quinton


    Hall, was a strict and well-known intellectual. He greeted Tessa when he saw her from afar. “Hey, Miss


    Reinhart.”

    Tessa froze before she stood up to greet him. “Is anything the matter, Mr. Hall?”


    “Well, there’s something I’d like to talk to you about. Gregory is doing really well in his calligraphy ss,


    and there happens to be a local youth calligraphypetition happening soon. I was wondering if


    Gregory could participate in it, Miss Reinhart.” Quinton exined his intentions before looking at Tessa


    hopefully.


    Tessa found this to be a good idea. Mr. Hall is a professional in calligraphy himself, so I’m sure his


    students can do better than the average person as well, Tessa figured. “You’re too nice, Mr. Hall.


    Gregory’s your student—if you think he’s good enough, then you can just sign him up for the


    competition.”


    Quinton felt more at ease upon hearing how respectful Tessa was toward him. He had grinned so


    widely that his eyes were crinkled. Well,e to think of it, Gregory is my final private student. At this


    age, I should be resting at home and enjoying my retirement, but Mr. Sawyer was eager to have me as


    Gregory’s teacher. That was why I agreed, and that was also how I got lucky enough to find myself


    such a talented child.


    “As long as everything goes well, I’m sure Gregory will win something in thispetition,” Quinton


    uttered as he was reminded of Gregory’s talent.


    Tessa was overjoyed to hear Quinton’s praise for her son. “Look, Gregory. Mr. Hall has such high


    hopes for you. You’ll have to work hard,” she encouraged Gregory. Gregory nodded obediently. “Don’t


    worry, Mom. I’ll work really hard.”


    Tessa ruffled Gregory’s hair lovingly when she saw the serious expression on his face. After that, she


    had a conversation with Quinton about the process of thepetition and some of the details


    surrounding it. Quinton patiently exined all the details and rules to Tessa before he headed off.


    After Quinton registered for Gregory that night, he made another phone call to Dynasty Gardens. “I’ve


    completed the registration, Miss Reinhart. You’ll have to make sure Gregory practices his calligraphy.”


    “Alright. Thank you so much, Mr. Hall.” Tessa beamed as she ended the call. At that very moment,


    Nichs entered the house dressed in a ck suit. He happened to overhear Tessa from behind, so he


    asked her about the call. “What’s up with Mr. Hall?” Nichs looked up at Quinton. Moreover, he was


    the one who hired Quinton, so he was especially attentive to the mention of Quinton’s name.


    Tessa stood up to greet Nichs with a smile when she heard his voice. “You’re back!”


    “Slow down. Be careful.” Nichs hurried over to help Tessa when he saw her standing up. After all,


    Tessa’s belly was getting bigger. Tessa felt warmth spreading across her chest when she saw how


    thoughtful Nichs was. “I am being careful. You don’t have to treat me like a porcin doll,” she said.


    Nichs simply smiled without saying anything.


    After that, he held her hand and led her to the couch before revisiting the topic earlier. “You were


    speaking to Mr. Hall earlier, right? Was Gregory being naughty in ss?” Coincidentally, Gregory


    happened to overhear their conversation at this very moment, and he quickly protested against his


    father’s words. “How could you say that I was being naughty? I was such a good student.”


    Gregory turned toin to Tessa after that. “Look at that, Mommy. How could Daddy talk bad about


    me? I was being so good,” he said.
