Chapter 635 Janet walked over to the piano room without entering. She stood outside and watched the man and the
boy as a series of complex emotions flashed across her eyes.
Nicholas didn’t know that she had been following behind him. He stood beside Gregory while questioning
the young boy, “Why are you hiding here?”
“Miss Tessa has been too busy to talk to me recently, so I have no choice but to come here and stare at
her belongings since I miss her.” Gregory pouted as he spoke, and the disappointment was evident on
his chubby face.
The boy’s words amused Nicholas. “You sure have an interesting way of missing someone.”
“Miss Tessa taught me well.” Gregory stuck his chest out while speaking proudly. “I learn best when Miss
Tessa’s the one teaching me.”
Nicholas’ expression softened upon hearing the boy’s words. “Stop pouting. It’s time for dinner. Come
downstairs with me.”
“No.” Gregory turned to face his back against Nicholas before he continued sitting on the floor and

A hint of exasperation surfaced in Nicholas’ eyes when he saw how Gregory acted. “Stop cleaning. I’ll
bring you over to visit Miss Tessa at the end of the month,” he said.
The young boy’s actions came to a halt before he gave his father an uncertain gaze. “Are you serious?”
After all, Nicholas had refused to bring him over no matter how much he had begged him in the past. So,
he found it hard to believe the man’s words now that the man was offering to bring him over to visit.
Nicholas could tell what Gregory was thinking, and he found it amusing. I can’t believe Gregory thinks I’m
lying because I rejected his request several times. I wonder who this brat got such traits from.
He frowned at that thought. “Since when have I ever lied to you?” he asked.
Gregory knew that his father wasn’t lying after hearing this question, and the young boy’s dim gaze lit up
immediately. “That’s great! I finally get to meet Miss Tessa!” He let out a cheer of joy.
The boy’s happiness seemed to be contagious as Nicholas spread his lips into a wide grin after seeing
the look on the boy’s face. “Are you going to be a good boy and go down for dinner now?”
“Sure. Of course,” Gregory uttered as he placed the violin aside and got to his feet. He tottered over to
his father before speaking in a childish voice. “Carry me, Daddy:
Nicholas had no reason to reject Gregory’s request, so he bent down and lifted the young boy off his
feet.
They had been about to head downstairs when they turned around to find Janet watching them.

Both father and son froze for a moment.
Even Janet looked somewhat surprised as she gazed at Gregory. This was her first time seeing the kid-
she hadn’t expected Gregory to look exactly like Nicholas:
When she first found out about the child, she felt a strong sense of jealousy and hatred. At that point, she
had the urge to murder both the child and the woman who gave birth to him. She felt like she was the
only woman with the right to bear Nicholas’ children. However, she didn’t take action in the end.
Back then, one of her men told her that Remus had gotten a surrogate mother to give birth to Gregory
and that Nicholas didn’t actually care or love the child. That was why she had suppressed the urge to kill
anyone. However, it now seemed like whatever her worker had told her had been inaccurate. It was clear
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthat Nicholas was emotionally bonded with the child. Nevertheless, that didn’t matter-the Sawyers had
more than enough money to rear a single child.
Regardless, Janet couldn’t bring herself to be fond of a child that wasn’t a product of her and Nicholas.
But now that she wasn’t officially with Nicholas, she had no choice but to put on an act. Even though she
didn’t actually like Gregory, she had to pretend to be a nurturing and loving woman. “You must be
Gregory. How adorable!”
“Hello, Miss.” Gregory didn’t know who the woman was, but he greeted her politely before turning to look
at his father. Who’s this? Gregory questioned the older man by giving him a look.
Nicholas immediately understood what his son was asking for. “This is my friend. She’s the one who was
previously hospitalized.”
A look of realization flashed across Gregory’s eyes before he stayed still in Nicholas’ arms without
commenting any further. Janet didn’t seem to mind this. It’s the kid’s first time seeing me, so he’s
probably still shy around me.
