Chapter 1390 The Accident
Although they were not in Vienna during this period, the housekeeper still cleaned the
villa.
As soon as they arrived, the family began to relax. When Mona received the news that
night, she quickly hurried over.
"Tessa, you're so inconsiderate. You came back without telling me, so I couldn't even pick
you up from the airport."
As soon as she entered the living room, Mona started nagging at Tessa, but she quickly
carried Gordon and hugged him.
"Gordon, do you still remember me after such a long time?"
She played with the little guy.
After all, she had been thinking about him and missing him a lot while they were apart.
Tessa looked at Mona's actions and laughed. "I think you're not here to pick me up but to
steal my son."
"You're right. Gordon is so well-behaved. I really want to take him back and raise him
myself."

Mona did not deny Tessa's comment, and as she spoke, she affectionately tapped the little
one's nose.
Two months had already passed and Gordon became even more adorable with his rosy
cheeks and chubbiness. He could melt anyone's heart.
Tessa teased, "If you love kids so much, you should find a man and have your own."
"I would love to, but I haven't found a man who can capture my heart." Mona pouted.
Although she had thought about finding someone to marry after seeing her friend living
such a happy life, she couldn't find a man she liked.
Tessa didn't say anything else as she knew that relationships were personal matters and it
was not good for others to interfere.
Mona stayed at the villa for dinner that night and played with the children until late before
leaving.
…
The following day, Tessa got up early to head to the orchestra.
After a warm family breakfast, Nicholas took her to the orchestra.
Upon arrival, they were warmly welcomed by the orchestra members. As soon as Gordon
made his appearance, he effortlessly captured the hearts of all the members.
"Oh my God, Gordon is so cute. He smiled at me!"
"It's my turn to hold him now. You've already held him for three minutes."
"Gordon, I'm your mom's senior."
Tessa's seniors competed to hold the baby.
Greg was also held by other members of the orchestra.
After the laughter and noise died down, the other members returned to their positions,
leaving only a few seniors behind.
At this moment, the eldest senior—Marjorie—took out the gift he had prepared and
handed it to Tessa. "I heard that safety locks have a symbolic meaning of bringing safety
to children in Xerthania. I specially ordered two for you, hoping Gregory and Gordon will be
safe."
The others also took out the gifts they prepared and almost all of them were related to
safety and well-being.
After all, what happened before really scared them, and they only hoped that the two
children would be safe and happy. Tessa was touched by their kindness.
As it was everyone's kind intention, she did not refuse their gifts.

After accepting the gifts, she thanked everyone on behalf of the two children. "Thank you,
seniors."
"Tessa, if you want to thank us, why don't you hand over Gregory and Gordon and let us
take turns taking care of them for two days? At least we won't be tempted to steal them
later," Jenny joked as she looked at Tessa.
Tessa knew that Jenny was just joking, so she nodded and said, "Sure, you can take
Gregory and Gordon with you. That way, I can have some alone time with my husband."
Tessa spent a lively afternoon with her children and fellow seniors. They also had lunch
together before she was picked up by Nicholas.
Instead of returning home, she asked him to take her to the manor to visit Louis.
After some time, she realized that she missed this proud and eccentric old man.
"Is everything okay, Sir?"
"I'm doing fine. How about you? How's your health?" Louis looked at Tessa with concern.
Previously, Tessa had been involved in a car accident in her home country and he had only
known about it through the news.
However, he had some matters to attend to back then and was unable to visit her in
person. Nevertheless, he had been following her news online.
Seeing Louis' concern, she smiled and explained, "I'm almost fully recovered now."
