Chapter 687
"Miss Tessa, I want a kiss too."
"Sure, I'll give you a kiss."
Then, she smiled as she gave Gregory a peck on his cheeks.
He chuckled happily as his round eyes curved up into the shape of crescent moons.
Sure enough, he didn't hesitate to throw a triumphant look at his father.
Nicholas found it hilarious that his son was competing for Tessa's attention with him.
Tessa had no idea that a secret battle between the father-son duo had taken place right under her nose. With
Gregory in her arms, she walked toward the living room and sat on the couch.
Nicholas followed behind and took a seat next to her naturally.
He was worried that Tessa's arms would be sore from carrying the boy as he recalled that Gregory had gained
some weight recently. Hence, he stretched out his hands and offered, "Your arms are probably sore by now
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtafter carrying him. Let me take him."
"I'm fine. Plus, you have not fully recovered yet and can't carry anything heavy. Have you forgotten what the
doctor said?"
She glared at him with feigned anger.
When he heard that, he lowered his gaze and smiled at Gregory, who was still in Tessa’s arms, "Get
down. You're a big boy now, and Miss Tessa would tire carrying you everywhere."
Although Gregory was reluctant, he slowly slid down from her embrace obediently.
He couldn't bear to be the reason Tessa became tired.
"Miss Tessa, are your arms sore? Let me massage it for you."
As he spoke, he had already started to give her a massage.
Tessa's heart softened at the sight of this.
At this moment, the three interacted harmoniously like a family.
Their cheerful laughter traveled beyond the living room, making Andrew, who was delegating tasks in
the garden, let out a relieved smile.
It had been long since he last heard Nicholas and Gregory laugh so heartily.
Later in the day, Tessa asked Nicholas, "Do you have any other plans in the evening?"
"I'm planning to take Gregory to visit Old Master Sawyer at the hospital later," Nicholas told her
honestly.
Tessa nodded. "Then I'll go and meet Tim. He doesn't know that I'm back yet."
"I'll get Andrew to arrange a driver for you."
"Sure."
With that, the two took Gregory with them and left the house.
At Reinhart Group, Tessa arrived at her brother's office successfully without any obstacles.
In order to give her brother a surprise, she made sure everyone in the company kept her visit a secret.

When Timothy's assistant noticed her sudden appearance outside the office, she was also shocked.
"Miss Reinhart?"
"Shush."
Tessa motioned for her to lower her voice as she whispered, "Is Tim in his office?"
The assistant nodded and replied softly, "He is."
"Don't mind me. I'll head in by myself."
After Tessa said that, she went to knock on the door.
Knock knock
"Come in."
Timothy's cool voice traveled from his office.
When Tessa entered the office, she saw her brother swamped with work. As she had not been able to watch
his growth daily, to her, it seemed as though he had matured overnight.
On the other hand, Timothy couldn't help but frown when he only heard footsteps but no one announcing
themselves.
