Chapter 845
Always Been Yours
Chapter 845 The Only Woman Who Is Good Enough for Him Despite saying so, she cursed Edward at full blast inwardly. What a tactless moron!
Edward was unaware of what she was thinking, so he thought that she didnât mind. After nodding slightly, he set the table for Nicholas, saying, âYour meal is ready, President Sawyer.â
âI got it.â Nicholas nodded. Then, he put aside his work and started eating.
Wanda felt disturbed when she saw that the man had started eating. Nicholas wasnât like this in the past, but heâs willing to change his habits for a woman. The more she thought about it, the more she found it unacceptable. She purposely asked, âNicholas, I heard that Miss Reinhart took Greg to Vienna. Wonât you be reluctant to part with them now that you guys are living apart from each other?â
Nicholas frowned slightly; he didnât like to discuss his private affairs with someone else. Still, he replied flatly out of courtesy, âI wonât.â
Naturally, Wanda noticed the note of displeasure in his voice, but she pretended not to notice it. Propping her chin in her hand, she said in a grave tone, âIf it were me, I wouldnât be willing to live apart from the person I love. And besides, I hear that itâs difficult for long-distance relationships to stand any tests most of the time.â
Hearing her meaningful words, Nicholas looked vaguely displeased. Furthermore, he didnât feel like talking about Tessa with this woman, so he replied coldly, âThatâs a matter between my wife and me, so itâs none of your concern, Miss Muller.â With that, he immediately took out his cell phone and gave Tessa a video call.
Tessa and Gregory had just finished their evening practice. When they got a video call from Nicholas, they were very happy. âDaddy, youâre free at last! I miss you so much,â Gregory said.
âI miss you too.â Nicholas looked at Gregory tenderly before resting his eyes on Tessa. He asked caringly, âHow are you these days?â
âWeâre fine. Miss Sofia even praised Greg for making great progress today.â Tessa summarized how their daily life had been over the past few days.
Nicholas listened to her story with great interest. Then, he said with a smile, âGreg, since youâve made progress, why donât you play a tune for me?â
âGive me a minute, then,â Gregory replied. With that, he turned around and ran to the music room to get his violin.
Soon after that, a cheerful melody flowed from the phone.
Contrary to the familyâs cozy atmosphere over here, Wanda was totally ignored. However, she was preoccupied with what Nicholas had said just now. My wife and me?! Did he just refer to Tessa as his wife?! No, I donât believe that theyâre married. I feel that this is more like a warning he gives me. Even so, I wonât give up. Iâm the only woman whoâs good enough for him!
Nicholas was unaware of these things. After Gregory finished playing the tune, he clapped his hands and praised the boy, saying, âYouâve indeed improved a lot compared to the past.â
Gregory looked at him delightedly with dark, starry eyes. âIâll play even better in the future. When that happens, Iâll play the violin for you again.â
Just when the family of three were having a pleasant conversation, Wandaâs voice sounded deliberately from behind Nicholas. âNicholas, are you talking to Greg and Miss Reinhart over the phone? Can I say hi to them?â As she spoke, she came to Nicholasâ side and leaned close to him on purpose.
Nicholasâ face instantly darkened with a frown. âWhat are you doing?â He stood up with a grim expression and distanced himself from Wanda with the phone in his hand.
The smile on Wandaâs face froze somewhat when she saw how cool and distant the man was. Is he so anxious to stay away from me because he fears that Tessa might get the wrong idea? In an instant, she was inwardly jealous of Tessa. She couldnât understand what made her inferior to Tessa. The more she thought about it, the more unhappy she was. However, she pretended to be apologetic, saying, âSorry, but I donât mean anything else. I just wanted to talk to Greg for a second just now. I hope that Miss Reinhart wonât get the wrong idea.â
Tessa and Gregory were startled for a moment over the phone.
