Chapter 1089 Picture Perfect
Tessa returned the violin to the restaurant manager after she had wrapped up her
performance and returned to her seat.
Gregory’s eyes lit up when he saw her. “Mommy, you are incredible!” he gushed and
showered her with compliments.
Next to him, Timothy and Nicholas couldn’t help chuckling at how besotted the little boy
was over his mother’s musical talents.
Just like that, the quartet finished their dinner happily. They were tired after the day’s
events, so they returned to their rooms after the meal.
…
Everyone seemed to be in a festive mood, and they slept in the following day. Tessa
reluctantly crawled out of bed, but she had only just made her way downstairs when
Gregory bounded up to her. He babbled excitedly, “Mommy, you said you were going to
take pictures with me today. Come on, let’s go! See, I even got Uncle Timothy to help me
button up my new suit!”
As he said this, he spread his arms out and spun so she could look at his new clothes. He
gave her a bright grin as he said with all the pride a toddler could muster, “I bet I’m way

The little guy looked adorable in his burgundy suit, which perfectly complemented his
delicate, childish features.
Tessa laughed, but she nodded and praised warmly, “Yes, you’re the most handsome
prince in all the land.”
On the other hand, Nicholas had to keep himself from rolling his eyes. I’m going to let
Timothy babysit the brat for the next couple of days, he thought in exasperation.
Later that day, the foursome headed to the agreed meeting place after their meal and saw
that Alina was already waiting for them.
She appeared to have been waiting for a while. She grinned and jogged up to them when
she registered their arrival, then said, “Mr. and Mrs. Sawyer, you’re finally here!’
“Sorry for being late, Alina,” Tessa said sheepishly, feeling bad that they had kept Alina
waiting.
Alina flapped her hand dismissively. “It’s fine. I only came much earlier just in case.
Anyway, I’ve already developed the photos. I think it’s my best work in this lifetime!”
Tessa looked forward to seeing the photos when she heard this. Before she could say
anything, however, Alina had happily thrust the photos into her hands. Alina said, “Take a
look, Mrs. Sawyer. Aren’t they just perfect? I wanted to pick out the best one at first, but
then I realized every single one of the photos was brilliant, and I couldn’t bring myself to
delete any of them. I figured I’d develop all of them instead!”
The photos were all carefully sealed, and as Tessa glanced through them, she had to admit
that these rivaled even airbrushed fashion shoots. More importantly, the photos captured
her and Nicholas’ loving sentiments toward one another.
Meanwhile, Nicholas stood beside her and admired the photos with satisfaction.
Timothy leaned forward to take a better look at the photos and was pleased with how well
they had turned out. He praised it wholeheartedly, “These are gorgeous. It makes my
heart full just looking at them.”
He was especially surprised by the one where Nicholas got down on one knee to kiss
Tessa’s baby bump.
It was only when Timothy spoke up that Alina realized somebody else had tagged along
with Nicholas and Tessa. She looked up at him, and when she glanced at his face, she was
stunned.

demanded more attention. She went on to shower the couple with compliments, “Mr.
Sawyer, I personally think this is one of the best and most meaningful photos I’ve ever
taken. Not to mention, the aesthetics are off the hook!”
Tessa nodded in agreement. While all the photos were beautiful, the one of Nicholas
kissing her baby bump was her favorite.
Gregory was curious about what the adults were gushing over, but he was too short to
look at the photo himself. He rose on his tiptoes and jumped into place to get a glimpse,
but it was in vain. “Mommy, I want to see the photo, too!” he pleaded, tugging on Tessa’s
sleeve helplessly.
Tessa laughed, but just as she was about to lower the photo to the little boy’s height,
Timothy swiftly picked Gregory up and asked, “Can you see it now?”
Gregory nodded earnestly. “Yeah, I can see it. I think Mommy and Daddy look really good
together, like a match made in heaven,” he said as he stared at the photo that Tessa was
holding.
When Tessa heard this, she began to show him the other photos.
When she got to the one with the kiss, Nicholas felt as if something were tugging on his
heartstrings.
