"Of course. Just go home and leave the rest to me." Kieran waved Nicholas goodbye.

Tessa leaned against Nicholas during their ride back home. At this moment, she felt exceptionally at peace and drowsy as she sniffed the minty fragrance on his body.

Tessa abruptly blinked awake when she sensed that the car had come to a stop.

"I'll take him back to his room and put him to bed. Go ahead and wash up first if you're feeling tired. You should rest. Don't wait up."

Immediately afterward, Nicholas left the car with Gregory in his arms.
