Chapter 1078 Princess Tessa
Tessa thought that Nicholas was still angry when she saw how silent he was. So, she
continued coaxing him in her coquettish tone. “Don’t be mad, okay? I promise I won’t do
anything that you don’t agree to in the future, okay?”
Nicholas wasn’t that angry to begin with, so he couldn’t help but laugh when he saw the
way Tessa was trying to make up for her mistakes. He gave her nose a fond pinch. “Don’t
forget what you just said! You’ll have to obey me from now on,” he teased. Tessa couldn’t
tell that he was fooling around with her at all. When she saw him smiling, she quickly
nodded her head. “I’ll do everything you say,” she uttered obediently. Both of them
chuckled and chatted for a while more before the housekeeper brought them their dinner.
After dinner, Nicholas told Tessa to go back to sleep. She did feel rather tired, so she
dozed off and fell asleep shortly after the meal. It was the middle of the night by the time
she woke up. When she turned her head sideways, she found Nicholas sitting by her
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbedside and going through some documents. On her other side was Gregory who was
snuggled up close to her. He seemed to be far, far away in his dreamland. Tessa felt a
warm sensation spreading across her chest as she looked around her.
Right then, Nicholas noticed that she was awake, so he quickly lowered the documents in
his hands to help her sit up in bed. “How are you feeling now?” he asked. “I feel a lot
better. Don’t worry; I’m fine now,” she comforted him. However, Nicholas still felt rather
uneasy, so he reached his hand out to feel her forehead. Tessa felt a mixture of gratitude
and guilt when she saw the worried look on the man’s face.
Her eyes lit up when she thought about something. Then, she placed her hands around
her huge belly before giving Nicholas a puppy-eyed look. “Daddy, the baby says it’s
hungry. The baby wants some food.” Nicholas froze for a moment before he realized that
Tessa was referring to him. “You cheeky girl.” He gave her a light jab on the forehead,
even though he secretly felt pleased by the way she had addressed him.
Tessa blinked a few times before questioning him. “Am I wrong to say you’re the baby’s
dad?” she asked, even though she knew the answer. A gentle, loving look formed in
Nicholas’ eyes as he gazed at his playful wife. “You’re right,” he uttered while fixing his
gaze upon her. Tessa, for some reason, felt rather shy to have him stare at her like that.
“Don’t look at me like that,” she protested as she tried to reach her hand out to cover his
eyes.
Nicholas let out a deep chuckle to show how pleased he was. He didn’t forget what Tessa
said about being hungry, so he gently pushed Tessa’s hand down as he stood up. “I’ve told
the kitchen to keep some food warm in case you wanted supper. I’ll go down and bring it
up for you now,” he uttered. Moments later, he disappeared out of the door.
Tessa, on the other hand, was left with a sweet smile on her face as she waited in bed. The
kitchen didn’t usually keep any food warmed at that hour, so it was clear that Nicholas
had given orders specially for her. Soon enough, Nicholas came up with supper. When he
walked in, he saw his wife smiling to herself in a rather silly manner, and he couldn’t help
but laugh at her. “What are you thinking about? Why are you laughing like an idiot?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Who’s the idiot?” Tessa gave him a playful glare.
Nicholas could tell that he used the wrong choice of words, so he quickly changed the
topic. “Here’s the chicken soup that I told the kitchen to prepare. Why don’t you try it?”
Tessa was genuinely hungry, so she allowed Nicholas to feed her some soup. The soup
tasted extremely good, and she finished half a bowl of it before she even realized. Then,
she looked up at the man who was focused on feeding her. He has been taking such good
care of me throughout the day. I feel like a princess in his care, she thought.
“Pfft…” Tessa was amused by her own thoughts. Well, I guess life would be pretty good if I
got to live like this forever. This is such a great feeling!
The next morning, Tessa felt a lot better. She headed downstairs for breakfast with
Nicholas and Gregory. Timothy was still asleep as he had stayed up late to finish some
work the night before. When he got downstairs, he found his sister arranging some flowers
in the living hall. “Are you feeling better, Tessa?” He walked over to check on her.
Tessa nodded. “I’m feeling fine now. You don’t have to worry about me.”
