“That’s because of what happened when you were pregnant with Gordon. Gordon was a naughty baby. He made you sick when he was inside your stomach, Gregory answered with a tilt of his head.
Even now, he had not forgotten how sick his mother had been while pregnant with his younger brother. She had been so ill that she couldn’t even eat anything at the time.
On the other hand, Gordon immediately protested hotly when he heard his elder brother’s words, “I’m a good boy! I’ve never made Mommy sick!”
“That’s because you don’t remember,” Gregory retorted seriously. Those words made Gordon so furious that his cheeks puffed up in anger. “I was not naughty! Don’t you dare falsely accuse me, Greg!”
As Tessa watched her two sons bicker over her experience during her last pregnancy, she could barely swallow the bubble of mirthful giggles that was about to escape her lips.
“That’s enough. Stop arguing now.” She stepped forward to stop the two boys. Then, she comforted Gordon, who was on the verge of tears, “Don’t cry, Gordon. Greg was just pulling your leg. You were very well-behaved back. then.”
As soon as the words left her mouth, Gregory immediately looked like he wanted to make an objection. However, he quickly swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue when Nicholas gave him a fierce sideways look The interaction between father and son did not escape Tessa’s notice. She glared at Nicholas coquettishly and went to comfort Gregory. instead.
“I know you’re just worried about me, Sweetheart. But my discomfort at the time has nothing to do with Gordon. It was an issue with my body. Besides, I don’t seem to be suffering from any side effects during this pregnancy. So, there’s no cause for you to worry.”
Although Gregory did not seem to fully understand what she meant, he nodded. obediently anyway. Then, a moment later, a thought seemed to occur to him. He glanced at Tessa happily and declared loudly, “Mommy, I think I know why you don’t feel sick this time! I’m sure it’s because the baby in your stomach. is a little sister! Grandma said that girls are very quiet, so the baby is definitely going to be a girl!”
She felt like laughing when she looked at her eldest son, who was very attached to the idea of having a little sister. Nevertheless, her heart. was filled with a sweet sense of happiness. The days passed as Tessa recuperated during her first trimester. Even so, she lived a fulfilling life every single day.
She would spend the day playing with Gordon and practicing her violin, and then she would help Gregory with his homework after he returned home from school in the evening.
On this day, Tessa had just coaxed Gordon to sleep when Andrew walked over and knocked. on the door lightly. Hence, she tiptoed out of the room and lightly closed the door behind her.
“What’s wrong, Andrew?” she asked with a glance at Andrew. Andrew respectfully replied, “Madam Tessa, Miss Gulliver is here. She is currently waiting downstairs.”
She couldn’t help feeling slightly taken aback by the news. Sure enough, she saw Sabrina sitting on the couch when she went downstairs. Thus, she walked over with a slight smile on her face. “Sabrina,” “Tess.”
The two of them exchanged pleasantries for some time before Tessa finally asked about the reason behind Sabrina’s unexpected visit. ‘Did you visit me today for something?”
“The wedding dresses I custom-ordered. previously have arrived, so I wanted to invite you to accompany me to pick one,” Sabrina nodded and bluntly stated the reason for her visit. Naturally, Tessa had no reason to refuse.
Half an hour later, they arrived at the wedding dress boutique. The manager immediately came forward to greet them warmly as soon as they stepped into the shop. ‘Miss Gulliver, Madam Tessa.”
“I received a phone call from your staff this morning saying that my custom-ordered wedding dresses have arrived. So, I came here to have a look at them,” Sabrina said while holding Tessa’s arm affectionately.
The manager nodded. “They have indeed. arrived. Please allow me to lead you inside to view them, Miss Gulliver, Madam Tessa.” While the manager spoke, she invited them inside with a welcoming gesture before she took the lead to guide them inside. It did not take long before she guided them into a VIP private room.
“Please wait here. I will arrange for the staff to bring the dresses over immediately.” After that, she turned around and arranged for the staff to bring out the dresses for display.
A few minutes later, several employees in professional attire entered the private room with wedding dresses in their hands. Under the illumination of the lights, these beautifully crafted wedding dresses were so gorgeous and exquisite that nobody could bear to tear their eyes away from them.
Even Tessa was stunned by the sight. When she came back to her senses, she glanced at Sabrina in astonishment. “Are all of these the wedding dresses that you custom-ordered?”
Sabrina’s eyes flickered slightly at those words, but she knew that now wasn’t the time to surprise Tessa with Nicholas’ plans. Thus, she nodded and explained, ‘It should be said that Timothy custom-ordered them. At the time, he asked me to choose the wedding dress design.. It was just that I liked every design and could not decide on any of them. Therefore, he decided to order every one of the wedding dress designs that I liked. He claimed that I could wear the rest on our future wedding. anniversaries.”
