Chapter 877
Always Been Yours
Chapter 877 You Should Go Back Nicholas pulled Tessa toward the sofa. âI havenât had a chance to hold you yet. No one is bothering us now, so I can finally take a good look at you.â
Then, he held Tessa and made her sit on his lap.
Feeling the softness in his arms, he felt that his heart, which had been empty all this time, was instantly filled.
He gently stroked Tessaâs belly, and his expression was gentle.
âHow are you and the child lately?â
âWeâre fine.â
There was a happy smile in Tessaâs eyes, and she snuggled in Nicholasâ arms obediently.
Meanwhile, he nodded and continued to hold her quietly.
The sun shone in from the outside and onto the two of them, making the scene indescribably warm and beautiful just like an oil painting.
After a while, the two got tired of it.
Tessa turned around, gripped Nicholasâ neck affectionately, and asked, âHow long will you be staying here this time?â
âI can spend time with you until the end of the New Year, and then I will stay for a while longer.â
Nicholas raised his eyes and looked back at Tessa with a very peaceful expression.
Tessaâs eyes lit up at once. âThere is still more than half a month until the New Year, so you can stay here during this time, right?â
She looked at Nicholas in delight.
Nicholas nodded lightly, tidied her hair scattered on her cheeks, and asked with a smile, âAre you happy?â
âYes!â Tessa nodded vigorously.
This was her first time spending the New Year with Nicholas, and it was very meaningful to her.
However, she only felt thrilled for a moment before she became worried again. âDid your parents agree to you staying here for the New Year? Will they be unhappy?â
Seeing his wifeâs worried expression, Nicholas couldnât help but want to tease her.
âI want to accompany you here for the New Year. Whether they agree or not will not affect my decision.â
Hearing this, Tessa was anxious.
Of course, she hoped Nicholas could accompany her for the New Year, but she didnât want to make his family unhappy because of her.
In the end, she reluctantly gave up the idea of ââcelebrating the New Year with Nicholas and persuaded him, âYou should go back to celebrate the New Year instead.â
Nicholas couldnât help laughing when he saw that she was obviously very reluctant to part with him, but she pretended not to mind as she tried to persuade him.
Hearing the manâs deep and pleasant laughter, Tessa turned her head to look at him, puzzled.
âWhy are you laughing?â
âYou dummyâI was just teasing you.â
Nicholas hugged Tessa, his voice indescribably doting as he said, âDonât worry. Iâve already told my parents about it, and they donât mind.â
Tessa was taken aback for a moment, and she immediately stared at him in annoyance.
âGregory is right! Youâre too evil for teasing me about such things.â
She angrily hammered his chest.
Meanwhile, Nicholas let her hit him while he continued to laugh.
The two laughed for a while before Nicholas hugged Tessa again. He rubbed her neck gently with his chin and said warmly, âThis time, I want to accompany you and watch our child grow up slowly.â
He had missed out once when Tessa was pregnant with Gregory, and this time, he didnât want to miss anything again.
Naturally, Tessa knew nothing of this.
As she listened to the manâs words, she felt that her heart was blossoming with happiness.
âWith you by my side, the baby will be very happy.â She snuggled into Nicholasâ arms and spoke softly.
When Nicholas heard this, his expression was extremely tender. âI will witness every moment of the babyâs growth with you.â
Tessa nodded lightly, feeling extremely joyful today.

The next day, Tessa got up early because she had to attend orchestra practice. After washing up, she and Nicholas went downstairs holding hands.
In the living room, Timothy and Gregory were already up.
âGood morning, Mommy and Daddy.â
When Gregory saw his parents, he greeted them in a soft voice.
Then, as if offering a treasure, he trotted to Tessaâs side and said excitedly, âMommy, do you think my clothes look good? Uncle Timothy bought them for me.â
