Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 1108

Chapter 1108 First Chemotherapy Session

At that moment, a shocked Tessa was in disbelief upon hearing Stefania’s offer. “You’re gifting all of these to me?” “Yes, that’s right.” Stefania nodded.

It took a while until Tessa finally believed that she was not hearing things. Subsequently, she shook her head frantically. “No, this is too extravagant for me to accept.”

Meanwhile, Stefania was pleased to see Tessa rejecting her gifts without any hesitation as it meant that Tessa was not a greedy person.

“Don’t be a stranger. As I’ve mentioned, I don’t play the violin anymore, so they’re honestly just collecting dust at this point. However, you’ve got your ambitious dreams, so I want you to utilize them and let them shine under the spotlight they deserve,” Stefania persuaded her.

Taking in Stefania’s words, Tessa was extremely touched. She had assumed all the while that Stefania had not accepted her, but little was she aware that she had a mother-in-law who was utterly supportive of her dreams.

“Thank you, Stefania…” Tessa choked on her words as she stepped forward and embraced her.

Though taken by surprise for a moment, Stefania patted Tessa’s back naturally soon after that. Then, she broke into a smile. “Why are you tearing up? You should thank Nicholas if you’re grateful for this.”

“Nicholas?” Tessa withdrew herself from Stefania’s arms with a nonplussed and confused look. Did Nicholas ask her to give me these?

“He didn’t say anything to me. I wanted to gift these to you on my own accord.” Stefania appeared to have figured out Tessa’s thoughts, so she explained, “The reason why I mentioned Nicholas was because he has never been so smitten with anyone else in his life.”

As soon as she mentioned those words, she heaved a sigh absentmindedly and seemed to be recalling something. Seeing that, Tessa decided to stay silent and avoid disrupting her.

As soon as Nicholas heard that, he was significantly surprised. After all, those violins were Stefania’s treasured pieces and she frowned upon anyone even laying their hands on them. Yet, she had gifted the entire collection to Tessa, so it was indeed a shocking piece of news.

“I see. It’s no wonder you’re grinning like a Cheshire cat then.”

Shortly after that, the phone on the bed rang as Tessa and Nicholas were engrossed in the conversation. It was the caregiver from the hospital who had called.

“Madam Tessa, the doctor just informed me that Old Mrs. Reinhart will undergo her first round of chemotherapy tomorrow morning. Since it’s her first chemo session, the hospital would prefer to have her family members present too.”

“Okay. I’ll be there tomorrow morning.” Tessa hung up upon agreeing to attend.

Meanwhile, Nicholas noticed the frown on her face and asked, “What’s wrong?”
