Chapter 646 Does He Care?
A somewhat uneasy look formed on Kaiden’s face, and Nicholas no longer said anything after that. He
stood around for a while and stood up to leave when he saw the sky turning dark. Gregory was home
alone, after all. “You guys can stay here and take care of her. Call me if anything happens.”
“President Sawyer.” Kaiden stopped Nicholas when he saw that Nicholas was about to leave. “Is
anything else the matter?” Nicholas turned to look at the other man with a blank look in his eyes.
“…Aren’t you going to stay? Jan’s still unconscious.” Kaiden glanced at the woman on the bed as he
spoke.
Nicholas didn’t realize Kaiden’s subtle actions—he simply found Kaiden’s statement rather odd. “It’s
just a fever. I don’t think she needs me here, does she?” Kaiden was speechless after that. It’s true—
Jan and President Sawyer aren’t related to each other. He’s already showing kindness by coming over.
I have no reason to keep him here. In the end, he could only watch as Nicholas walked out.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJanet opened her eyes a while after he left. She hadn’t slept earlier—she had just pretended to be
unconscious. She thought that Nicholas would pity her a little more if she did so. However, she hadn’t
expected him to leave just like that. She noticed how Kaiden seemed like he had something to say, so
she used her hunger as an excuse to send Sally out of the room. Once it was just the both of them,
Janet spoke up.
“What do you want to say?” Janet asked as she rested her body against the headboard. She looked
really disappointed. “Is all of this worth it, Jan?” Kaiden asked with a frown.
“You don’t need to care if it’s worth it or not. I don’t need your opinion on this!” Janet gave Kaiden a
warning glare. All she wanted to know then was the reason Nicholas was so cold to her. Unfortunately,
she had no idea what he was thinking.
From Nicholas’ perspective, he figured that Janet would be able to handle a simple fever or flu on her
own if Tessa could do it on her own in a different country. Furthermore, since he couldn’t accompany
Tessa, he figured that Janet would have no right to expect him to stay by her side.
After he got home, Nicholas had dinner with Gregory before he spent some time revising Gregory’s
homework with him. Once they were done with this, Gregory clung to Nicholas’ arm while whining. “I
miss Miss Tessa, Daddy. Why don’t we call her?” Of course, Nicholas had no reason to reject this idea
since he also missed her.
On the other end of the world, Tessa had just woken up and finished cleaning herself up. She was
pleased when she received Nicholas’ call as it was still early, and she had some spare time before she
had to head to the orchestra. “I’ve already learned the music sheet that you designed for me, Miss
Tessa. I’ll play the songs for you now.” Gregory lifted the violin and began playing it like he was on
stage.
Tessa listened to the child’s music attentively, and there were times when she couldn’t even point out a
single flaw in the young boy’s playing. On the other hand, Nicholas felt really calm and comfortable
when he heard the woman’s gentle voice coming from the phone. There was a tender and loving gaze
in his eyes as he watched the woman teach the boy some tips on playing. Later, when it was time for
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTessa to head to the orchestra, they ended the call unwillingly.
After Gregory placed the phone down, he rested his chin on his palms while speaking in a gloomy tone.
“I wish time could pass a little faster. That way, I’d be able to see Miss Tessa a little sooner.” Nicholas
chuckled when patting the back of the boy’s head. “Alright. It’s time to sleep,” he uttered in a gentle
voice. The boy nodded and followed his father over to brush his teeth.
…
Nicholas had breakfast with Gregory the following day before he prepared to head out to the office.
However, before going there, he visited the hospital first. Janet was already up by the time he reached.
The grim look on her face was replaced by a wide grin when she saw the handsome man striding into
his office. “You’re here, Nicholas.”
He nodded calmly. “How are you feeling?” he asked out of courtesy. “I’m okay. The fever went down,”
she replied. The grin on her face was as bright as the sun when she heard the man caring for her.
Does this mean that Nicholas actually cares about me? Otherwise, why would he wake up early in the
morning just to see me?
