Always Been Yours

Chapter 977 Nicholas Gets Emotional

Gregory nattered on happily to the healthy baby growing within Tessa’s belly.

Meanwhile, Tessa didn’t interrupt Gregory’s evident enthusiasm as she gazed at him fondly, wholly enraptured by his curiosity toward the new life she was nurturing.

Suddenly, the phone she had placed aside rang loudly, somewhat shattering the peaceful atmosphere between mother and son. However, when she checked the notification, her eyes lit up with delight when she saw that it was a video call request from Nicholas.

”What are you two doing?”

Nicholas’ gentle voice came from the phone.

When Tessa was about to tell Nicholas the good news, she was preempted by the excited Gregory.

”Daddy! My baby sister moved just now. She even knew that I was her brother and said hello to me!”

Nicholas was momentarily stunned when he heard Gregory’s words. But, then, his astonishment was instantly followed by slight envy and disappointment when he realized that he couldn’t be there with his family and experience that joy with them.

As for Gregory, he didn’t notice the strange look on Nicholas’ face at all and was still happily bragging about it, ”Daddy, my baby sister must like me!”

Nicholas’ mood took a turn for the worse when he heard that.

So, he decided to ignore Gregory as he looked toward his wife and pretty much demanded impatiently, ”Let me see your belly.”
