Always Been Yours Chapter 1385

The chief guard quickly reported respectfully to Hobbs. Hobbs heard that the assistant took all the blame and looked at the slightly nervous Elisa beside him. He understood the hidden meaning behind this.

Then, he sneered and sarcastically said, “If an assistant dares to do this, it can only mean the master allowed it to happen.” His words held a deep meaning as everyone present understood and looked at Elisa with judgment in their eyes.

Faced with everyone’s scrutinizing gaze, she turned pale. What made it even harder for her to accept was that those words came from the mouth of the person whom she cared for. She looked at Hobbs in shock and swayed.

Meanwhile, Freya frowned and thought that Elisa was being dramatic. “Today is supposed to be a celebration. Everyone should be happy and not petty. However, someone has to compensate for the damaged dress.

At that, Freya looked at the assistant and sternly demanded, “You must compensate for the damaged dress at its full price and apologize to Miss Reinhart at the same time!”

“Okay,” the assistant replied softly as she cowered. Freya ignored her and looked up at Elisa on the other side.

Elisa didn’t say anything because there was no evidence to prove that she had destroyed the dress, so even if Freya suspected something, she couldn’t say anything.

However, the faint disgust in Freya’s eyes had already revealed her current mood. It was obvious that Elisa had left a bad impression on her.

She realized this and regretted it deeply. If she had known about it, she would not have used such a method to deal with Tessa. She had shot herself in the foot.

Because Freya had punished the assistant, the matter was pretty much over. Soon, everyone dispersed. Tessa went to change out of her dress and planned to leave with Sofia.

However, as she walked to the entrance of the palace, she saw Hobbs there. She stopped and muttered, “Miss Sofia, Count Hobbs helped me a lot tonight. I want to thank him.”

“Go ahead. I’ll wait for you in the car.” Sofia thought that Tessa should properly thank him for what happened tonight. Tessa nodded and walked toward Hobbs.

As he watched the elegant girl walk toward him, his cold demeanor softened unconsciously. His voice became inexplicably gentle as he greeted her. “Miss Reinhart.”

“Mr. Hobbs, thank you for what you did tonight. If it weren’t for you, tonight’s celebration would have been ruined by me,” Tessa thanked him gratefully.

Hobbs didn’t mind it at all. He smiled and said, “It was just a small favor. Are you leaving now, Miss Reinhart?” “Yes.” Tessa smiled and nodded as she felt that he was very amiable and a good person.

However, he didn’t realize he had been friend- zoned. He curled his lips and smiled while saying, “May I have the honor of escorting you back?”

“Thank you for your kind offer, Mr. Hobbs, but I will go back with Miss Sofia.” She politely declined. Hobbs did not insist after his request was declined.

The two exchanged a few more words before Tessa left with Sofia. When they returned to the hotel, she saw Nicholas holding Gordon in one arm while reading documents with the other.

Gregory, on the other hand, sat quietly reading at book nearby. Under the lights, the peaceful scene of the father and sons was heart-warming.

Tessa’s heart was filled with warmth. She held out her arms and said, “I’m back!” Both Nicholas and Gregory put aside their task at hand. “Mommy, you’re back!” Gregory happily ran over to Tessa and hugged her.

She bent down and carried him while asking. “Were you well-behaved at home?” “Yes, I was.” He nodded and kissed her while saying affectionately, “Mommy, you’ve worked hard.”

Hearing this, she felt all her exhaustion instantly disappear. At this moment, Nicholas also came over with Gordon in his arms. He kissed her and asked, “Are you tired?”
