Chapter 1305


    “Hi, Gordon. I’m Mommy,” Tessa lowered her head and spoke to the baby in a gentle voice.

    She did not know whether it was because of their blood ties, but she could feel the bond growing


    between them the instant shended her eyes on the baby. It definitely helped that Gordon immediately


    revealed a sweet smile at the sight of her. His pitch-ck eyes were lively and energetic. Moreover, his


    eyes seemed to contain the entire universe in them.


    Her heart nearly melted at the sight. Gregory leaned over from the side and asked excitedly, ‘Mommy,


    Gordon is so adorable! Can I hold him?”


    He nced at Tessa expectantly. Naturally, Tessa did not refuse him. So, she handed the baby in her


    arms to Gregory without another word and warned him, “Be careful.”


    He nodded seriously, his entire body immediately tensing up in response. At this moment, he was more


    nervous than when his teachers checked his homework.


    Tessa could see his anxiousness and nearly burst out inughter. She also took into ount that he


    was still just a child, so she did not put the baby’s full weight. in his arms but simply let him hug the


    baby.


    Even so, he was happy and satisfied to be able to embrace the newborn. “Mommy, Gordon is so soft


    and small!”


    “He won’t be so small anymore when he grows up.” While she spoke, she turned to look at Nichs.


    “Why don’t youe and hold him too?”


    Nichs nodded and stepped forward to take Gordon into his arms. “Gordon, I am your daddy.” He


    gazed at the baby warmly.


    Gordon blinked, clearly not understanding a word or what was happening at the moment. Nevertheless,


    he babbled happily and waved his little hands around.


    Everybody smiled and chuckled at the sight. He was indeed a little bundle of joy whose smile never left


    his face. Before the baby had even warmed Nichs’ arms, his parents swooped in and snatched his


    youngest son away.


    Once everybody had gotten a chance to carry Gordon, Stefania took Gordon into her arms and refused


    to let anybody else hold him. Her excuse was that Nichs and the others were men, and men were


    generally not careful enough to handle a baby. On the other hand, Tessa was still too weak to carry the


    baby for long.


    She wasn’t wrong, as carrying a baby was a rather strenuous task after all. Tessaughed at the


    reasoning but did not. argue with her mother-inw.


    After they carried their little bundle of sunshine, which would be Gordon, Tessa began to proceed with


    the discharge procedures. Most of her superficial wounds were already healed by now. All that was left


    was her broken bones, which would take several months.


    When she finally finished the formalities, Nichs pushed her out of the hospital in a wheelchair. The


    Sawyers had kept news of her discharge from the hospital secret for the time being, so the public was


    unaware that she was healthy enough to leave the hospital.


    Back at the Dynasty Gardens, Nichs heard a chorus of congrattory wordsing from Andrew


    and the rest of the servants as soon as he got out of the car. “Congrattions on your recovery and


    discharge from the hospital, Madam Tessa!”


    Tessa felt warm inside when she heard their sincere well-wishes from inside the car. Likewise, Nichs


    was also in an excellent mood. He carried her down from the car and carefully ced her in the


    wheelchair.


    Tessa thanked Andrew and the rest of the servants with a bright grin that stretched from. ear to ear.


    Just as Nichs was about to push Tessa into the house, Andrew suddenly stopped them.


    “Please wait a moment, Master Nichs.” After he said that, he shot a look at the servant beside him.


    The servant immediately reacted to the signal and brought out a small charcoal brazier from the side.


    “Master Nichs, this is a customary practice. Please carry Madam Tessa in your arms and step over


    the charcoal brazier. The mes will burn away all the bad luck, allowing you to enjoy a prosperous


    future from now on.”


    Nichs didn’t hesitate to scoop Tessa into his arms upon hearing those words and stepped over the


    charcoal brazier. Although he did not believe in superstitions and customary practices, he did not mind


    following them as long as they were good for Tessa.


    When Stefania heard about this, she also decided to follow suit. She carried Gordon securely in her


    arms and stepped over the charcoal brazier


    “Gordon will also enjoy a prosperous and peaceful life in the future!’ She smilingly cooed at the baby in


    her arms. The others quickly joined in with various congrattory words.


    Tessa smiled blissfully at the sight. Not long afterward, they arrived in the living room. Still, there was


    another surprise waiting for them inside.


    Bang! Colorful ribbons from handheld party poppers showered the air before theynded on Tessa and


    Nichs. Kieran and Timothy’s cheerful voices rang out together.


    “Congrattions on your recovery, Tessa!” “Congrattions on your sessful discharge from the


    hospital, Tessa and Gordon!”


    Those two were not alone. Sofia, Marjorie, and their other friends were also gathered in the living room.
