    Chapter 1173 First ce


    Alice nodded in agreement, and then she remembered something else. “I also have a surprise for you.”


    She smiled. “What is it?” Tessa asked curiously.


    Alice gave her a cryptic answer, “You’ll see.” That stoked Tessa’s me of curiosity.


    When they were almost done with the tour, Alice took her to a room. “Sofia told me to keep this room


    for you. You can take a break in here when you get tired from practice.” Alice smiled. “She specifically


    told me to make sure you’re never exhausted. Sofia’s really nice to you. I’m very jealous,” she teased.

    Tessa looked around the waiting room, and a surge of warmth welled up in her heart. “Thanks to the


    baby, I guess.” She rubbed her belly, a sweet smile curling her lips. She then gave Alice a look of


    gratitude. “You did a lot for us, Alice. Thank you. For everything.”


    “It’s nothing. Not like I’m doing it for free. Sofia pays me a lot for this.” Alice winked cheekily. “But if you


    can convince her to increase my bonus, that’d be swell. Makes for better motivation,” she teased


    Tessa.


    She really loves money, huh? Tessa chuckled. They happily went around the ce, and Tessa took a


    lot of pictures and shared them with Nichs after the tour was done.


    A whileter, Nichs called. “Nice training center you got.” “I think it’s nice too.” She told him


    everything about the new ce, including the fact that Sofia prepared a waiting room for her.


    Nichs thought Sofia had done well. “She did well.” They made small talk, and then he asked, “So are


    youing backter?”


    “Why?” Nichs smiled. “I can pick you up. I’m seeing a client nearby.” Tessa happily agreed. The


    couple returned to Dynasty Gardens in the evening.


    After they got out of the car, Andrew approached them, a smile hanging on his lips. “Sir, madam, Mr.


    Hall is here.”


    Tessa’s eyes shone. Oh, that can only mean one thing. The calligraphypetition’s results are out.


    She held Nichs’ hand, and they made their way to the living room.


    Gregory and Quinton were on the couch. The moment the couple entered, both of them stood up.


    “Mommy, Daddy, you’re back. We’ve been waiting.” The boy waddled over to his mother, excited. “Mr.


    Hall said the results are out.”


    Tessa thought Gregory already knew the results seeing how excited he was. She bent over and asked,


    “So, are you in first ce?”


    “I haven’t asked. I was going to wait until you guys came back, but I’m sure I got first ce.” Gregory


    raised his head confidently.


    Tessa was surprised the boy could hold his curiosity back, but Nichs wasn’t. He seemed to have


    expected this. “So, what’s his result?” He looked at Quinton.


    Proudly, Quinton announced, “First ce, just like he said. And he’s the youngest champion since the


    competition’s inception.”


    The results surprised Tessa.


    But she quickly snapped out of it, and happily, she praised, “Well done. You broke the record.”


    “Told you I’d get first ce.” The boy shook his head smugly, but Tessa thought he looked adorable.


    She poked his forehead endearingly. “You have to learn to be humble.”
