Always Been Yours

Chapter 987 No Coincidences

Once Tessa returned home, the first thing she saw was Nicholas working in the living room. Nicholas looked up from the computer screen when he heard the sound of footsteps. “You’re home?” he said, beckoning for her to come over.

Beside him, Edward greeted her politely, “Hello, Madam.” She smiled as she nodded in greeting and took a seat next to Nicholas. Then, she swept her gaze around as she asked curiously when she didn’t catch a glimpse of Gregory, “Where’s Greg?”

“I came up with some homework for him, and he’s working on it upstairs now,” he explained, pulling her into his arms. Then, she went straight to the heart of the topic and inquired, “Greg said that you left for the band in a rush this morning. Did something happen?”

“Yeah, something terrible happened.” Tessa nodded and told him about the fire, “Luckily, the fire was under control. Otherwise, the damage would be far worse. It was only my practice room that was heavily damaged. But, unfortunately, several studios around it were also affected.”

When Nicholas heard that only the surrounding area from Tessa’s practice room caught fire, his eyes narrowed, and there was only a calculative gleam in them. After all, there were no such things as coincidences in this world, and because of this, he couldn’t help but smell a conspiracy behind this.

Regardless, Tessa didn’t notice the change in his expression and continued, “Fortunately, I have a backup copy of my music, or this fire would have burned my previous effort to naught. But I feel so bad for the studio Miss Sofia prepared for me. I heard that all the equipment inside was destroyed in the flames.”

Nicholas cast a look at Edward once he heard that, and Edward immediately understood his boss’ intention. So, he didn’t waste a second as he left quietly to make the necessary preparations, and Nicholas’ face only returned to normal after he was far away.
