Chapter 331 I Really Want to Go Back
Hayley knew very well that once a man like Nicholas got serious, he would absolutely be loyal to his feelings. And she needed a man like this in her life.
A hint of resolution sparked in her beautiful eyes as she stared in the direction where Nicholas had disappeared. “I will win you over!”
…
In Dynasty Gardens, Nicholas heard the sound of a violin coming from the second floor as soon as he entered the living room.
At this moment, Andrew came over respectfully. “Master Nicholas, you’re back.”
Nicholas nodded and handed over the briefcase in his hand. After that, he asked, “Is Greg practicing his violin upstairs?”
“Yes. The young master started practicing in the music room this afternoon. Then, after he had his dinner, he went into the music room again.”
Nicholas was quite surprised as he listened to Andrew’s reply. He was astonished because Gregory had not touched his violin much since Tessa left.
Nicholas made his way upstairs and then pushed the door into the music room.
“Daddy!” Gregory immediately put down his violin and trotted over happily as he saw Nicholas enter the room. He hugged Nicholas’ long legs. Then, he raised his head and asked, “Daddy, when did you come back?”
“Oh, I just came back. I heard you’re practicing your violin, so I came over to have a look.”
Nicholas ruffled Gregory’s hair with his hand. His initially austere facial features softened. “Why did you start playing the violin again?”
“Daddy, stop rubbing my head. You’re ruining my hairstyle!” Gregory immediately loosened his hold on Nicholas’ thighs and stepped aside to straighten the hair that Nicholas messed up.
Nicholas let out a hearty laugh when he saw that and walked straight into the music room.
After straightening his hair, Gregory followed him. Then, he bragged in his soft and adorable voice and said, “Miss Tessa and I had a video call during the day, and she even taught me a new song.”
When Nicholas saw the arrogant look on Gregory’s face, his facial expression softened up even more. As a matter of fact, he had already guessed that Gregory practicing his violin might have something to do with Tessa.
“So, was the song you played a while ago a new song that you had just learned?”
“Yeah! Miss Tessa even sent me the music sheet and asked me to practice more.” Gregory looked at Nicholas. His gaze was very bright, as if there was starlight glimmering in his black pupils.
After that, Nicholas asked again, “Well then, how is your practice coming along?”
“Daddy, do you want to listen to me play?” Gregory blinked his big eyes and looked at Nicholas cutely.
As he was interested in discovering Gregory’s violin skills, he nodded.
“Then I’ll play it for you.”
As Gregory said that, he picked up his violin and put it in between his neck and shoulders. Then, he started playing while looking at the music score.
After Gregory played for a while, Nicholas finally recognized the song that he was playing. It was ‘A Time for Us’ and was supposed to be a tender and romantic piece. But unfortunately, under Gregory’s rocky performance, Nicholas did not feel any tender love or romance that he was supposed to feel in this piece. Instead, Gregory had somewhat ruined such a good piece of music with his unskilled performance and made him chuckle in amusement.
I didn’t expect Tessa to teach him such a difficult music score remotely. Isn’t this too difficult for Greg?
When he heard sounds of laughter, Gregory immediately stopped playing. Then, puffing up his cheeks in anger, he glared at Nicholas.
Nicholas knew then that his laughter had angered Gregory. He then complimented Gregory with a light cough while suppressing his laugh, “Your violin skill is all right. It’s quite good.”
There was a noticeable tint of disdain in Gregory’s eyes as he heard Nicholas’ insincere compliment.
“Who says it’s good? I can’t even finish playing the whole song without pausing here and there. You only know how to coax me like I’m a child,” Gregory retorted.
Meanwhile, in Vienna, Tessa had a good night’s sleep until dawn in her apartment. However, when she finally got up and had a good stretch, she was a little stunned when she looked at the unfamiliar yet familiar environment, followed by a sense of loss that crept into her heart.
I have lived in this apartment for several days. But Timothy, Greg, and even Nicholas are not here. I keep feeling that something is missing. Although I have made up my mind to work hard, I can’t help but miss them.
“What should I do? I really want to go back,” Tessa whispered as she hung her head.
In an instant, the atmosphere in the room also turned gloomy. But fortunately, her emotions came and went very quickly.
