Chapter 36 What Is So Good About This Woman?
Nicholas was the calmest since he had already known of Gregory’s musical talent and the boy’s ability to learn a piece of music in a short period of time. So, it didn’t come as something completely unexpected to him.
However, he was pleased to know that Tessa had taught Gregory with all her heart and soul!
Nevertheless, Yana didn’t share the same sentiments and didn’t know how to appreciate the violin, so she felt that it was all the same to her.
Stepping forward, Roselle agreed and softly congratulated, “It’s really good, Gregory. You are really amazing!”
“Thank you,” Gregory responded indifferently, but he didn’t look exceptionally happy; he still acted distant and polite. Although when he turned to look at Tessa, he had a different expression as if he wanted to be praised by her. “Miss Pretty Lady, how did I do? Did I do well?”
A smiling Tessa approached and patiently taught, “You did a great job, Sweetheart, but there is one part that was wrong. In the treble rhythm, it should have been half a beat faster.”
“Oh! I’ll remember it!” A serious Gregory then obediently nodded.
While everyone was chatting, Nicholas retrieved his jacket and was about to return to the company. “Mom, I have something else to do, so I’ll head off first.”
Roselle’s gaze landed on him. Then, she quickly asked, “Nicholas, are you leaving so soon? Can’t you go a bit later? We rarely come and want to chat with you.”
There was a bit of reluctance and intimacy in her tone.
Hearing that, he frowned imperceptibly and replied coldly, “I have an appointment with a client at noon.”
Roselle lowered her head slightly, feeling a little disappointed. However, she did not persuade him any further. As for Stefania, she didn’t say anything and merely reminded Nicholas to be careful while driving.
Then, Gregory also waved his little hand, saying obediently, “Bye bye, Daddy.”
Nicholas nodded slightly at Gregory. Soon after, his gaze hesitantly fell on Tessa before he said in a low voice, “If you’ll be busy in the afternoon, you can leave first and leave Greg with my mother.”
Since there were other people here, Tessa might not be able to adapt to staying here. It would also be bad if something unpleasant had happened. Hence, she nodded slightly and answered, “Okay, see you then, President Sawyer.”
Roselle watched their interaction from the side and felt extremely jealous. She felt that Nicholas was becoming interested in that woman. What is so good about this woman?
Her gaze couldn’t help but darken a little before she looked at Yana, trying to signal to her that they had to drive this woman away!
Tessa didn’t know what they were thinking at this moment. Instead, she focused on pointing out the mistakes in Gregory’s performance.
Watching her, Stefania looked a little more appreciative. As she was delighted that Gregory had performed so well, she acknowledged Tessa’s expertise a little more.
After nearly half an hour, Andrew, the butler, stepped forward and said respectfully, “Mrs. Sawyer, before he left, Master Nicholas had instructed the kitchen to make lunch again. If you will, please move to the dining room for lunch.”
Roselle turned to look at Tessa before politely asking, “Miss Reinhart, do you want to have lunch together with us?”
However, Tessa shook her head and replied with a smile, “No, we have already eaten just now. Please carry on. I will take Greg upstairs and then teach him more.”
Stefania readily agreed. “Thank you for teaching Greg.”
The corners of Tessa’s lips rose slightly before she lowered her head. “You’re welcome. This is what I should be doing.”
Without saying anything more, she took Gregory upstairs. Then, Stefania and the others took their seats and had lunch together.
Halfway through the meal, Andrew emerged with two glasses of juice and was ready to head upstairs to give them to Gregory and Tessa.
When she saw it, Roselle developed a plan in her heart and called out to Andrew, “Andrew, I’m full now. Give me the juice, and I’ll send it to Greg and Miss Reinhart.”
A hesitant Andrew replied, “Um… I shouldn’t like to bother you with this, Miss Gingham.”
Nevertheless, Stefania said with a smile, “It’s okay. Roselle wants to help out, so let her deliver the drinks.”
