Chapter 840 Gregory’s First Violin Lesson

Tessa, in particular, felt warm inside. Pulling Gregory into her arms, she said with a chuckle, “Are you that happy to be with me?”

“Of course! I like you the most, Mommy,” Gregory replied, professing his love for his mother in a childlike voice.

Listening to their conversation, Nicholas couldn’t help but marvel at the magic of kinship. Greg and Tessa know nothing, but they’re drawn to each other because of their natural ties. At the thought of this, he looked at the laughing mother and son with greater tenderness in his eyes. Seeing the boy’s bright smile, he couldn’t help but tease him, saying, “You’re so happy to be with your mom. Don’t you miss me?”

“I do miss you, but I miss Mommy even more,” Gregory said while hugging Tessa in a clingy manner. Then, he continued in a sweet voice, “And besides, I’ve lived with you for so many years, so now I should spend more time with her. Daddy, don’t be jealous of Mommy, okay?” With that, he gave Nicholas a look that said ‘don’t be unreasonable.’

Nicholas frowned in amusement.

Tessa couldn’t stop laughing as she looked on. After a while, she suppressed her laughter and comforted Nicholas, saying, “Okay, don’t be jealous of me. I’ll take Greg back to see you when we’re free.”

“I’m not jealous. I just wanted to tease him,” Nicholas explained. Then, he added tenderly, “And with Greg keeping you company over there, I can put my mind at rest.”

Tessa nodded.

The family of three then chatted for another while before hanging up.

The next morning, Tessa took Gregory to Sofia’s manor after having breakfast.

Sofia smiled affably when she saw the mother and son in the living room. She asked, “Have you two eaten breakfast?”

“Yes, we have.” Tessa nodded.

Gregory also nodded like an adult, saying, “We’ve eaten breakfast, Granny Sofia. Have you eaten?”

“Yes, I have,” replied Sofia. Then, she tenderly beckoned Gregory over, saying, “Come on, let me take you to the music room to take your lesson.”

Gregory nodded before following Sofia to the music room.

As today was his first day learning how to play the violin, Tessa followed them to the music room, fearing that he might not get used to it.

After entering the music room, Sofia didn’t start teaching Gregory right away. Instead, she tested his basic knowledge. She took out several short musical compositions of different levels of difficulty, asking him to play the compositions one by one. However, little did she think that the boy would surprise her again. Gregory already had no trouble playing simple musical compositions. He played the violin with the right technique, so it was clear that he had practiced assiduously. As for intermediate-level musical compositions, the boy’s skills were still immature, but he once again displayed an amazingly fine ear for music. “Tessa, Greg is simply born to play the violin. He’s a genius!” Shocked, she looked at Tessa with excitement while being somewhat unable to control her emotions.

Tessa was also happy that Gregory possessed such a natural gift.

Roughly figuring out what Sofia’s words meant, Gregory asked in a cheery voice, “Granny Sofia, am I amazing?”

“Yes, you are, Greg. You’re very talented.” Sofia nodded with a smile. Then, she said, “Even though you’re talented, you have to practice hard.”

Gregory nodded enthusiastically. “Don’t worry, Granny Sofia. I’ll certainly practice as hard as I can.”

Seeing how obedient the boy was, Sofia felt that she had come across a real treasure.

It was time for Tessa’s lesson in the afternoon. As Sofia had figured out how skilled she was, she drew up a study plan for her and taught her with pertinence.

The lesson lasted for half of the day, during which time Tessa learned a lot from Sofia. At the end of the lesson, she and Gregory bid Sofia farewell, saying, “We gotta go, Miss Sofia. See you tomorrow.”

“See you tomorrow, Granny Sofia.”

“See you tomorrow.” Sofia watched as the mother and son got into the car and left.

On their way home, Tessa asked caringly, “Greg, are you tired after today’s lesson?”

“No, I’m not tired. Are you tired, Mommy? Did I behave well?”
