CHAPTER 1503 WHY DIDN’T YOU TELL ME?
Tessa was astonished. "I had another child before I married you, and you don't care?"
The instant Nicholas noticed his wife's cranky expression, he decided to stop teasing her. "To be honest, I've known about it for a long time."
"You knew?" She was absolutely gob-smacked. Then again, considering his ability and influence, she abruptly realized that it would have been easy for him to discover her secret. Hence, her emotions suddenly became complicated once more.
He quietly observed her reaction, tightened his arms around her, and asked in a deep voice, "Do you remember when you asked me about Greg's mother?"
She was caught off guard by his sudden question and glanced at him in confusion. She was puzzled as to why he suddenly mentioned the topic now. After all, they were talking about her child, not Gregory.
His deep and low voice sounded in her ears once more, "At the time, I thought that the timing was wrong and decided to conceal the truth from you. The truth is that… Greg is actually that child."
As soon as the words left his mouth, she froze in shock. His words endlessly echoed around her head.
The truth is that… Greg is actually that child.
When she finally came back to her senses, she looked at him in pure disbelief. "Are you speaking the truth? Is Greg really that child?"
"Of course, it's the truth. Think about it. If you're not his biological mother, then why would he be so special to you? It's all thanks to that special mother and son bond that you both felt. It's only natural to have a special sense of attraction for each other." He nodded and confirmed the truth.
Her entire mind went blank at the revelation, and she did not know how to describe her own emotions at the moment.
"Give me a moment to gather my thoughts." She raised a hand and gestured for him to continue their conversation later.
He knew that it would take her some time to digest the information she had just received fully. Therefore, he simply waited for her quietly.
A few minutes later, Tessa finally organized her thoughts and stared at Nicholas with a complicated look in her eyes. "Have you always known that Greg is my child?"
Nicholas nodded. "I discovered the truth a long time ago. Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
When she heard his response, the look in her eyes became very complicated.
"If you knew, then why didn't you tell me?" She shot a questioning look at him.
He answered her question honestly, "I wanted to tell you immediately when I first learned the truth. But you were working so hard for your dreams at the time. I thought that you might give up on chasing your dreams wholeheartedly if you knew that Greg was that child. If I did that to you, it would feel as though I was using our child to restrict your freedom. After all, I once promised you that I would never let the
children become the shackles that prevent you from pursuing your dreams."
When she listened to his side of the story, she was so moved that her eyes filled with tears. She never realized that he had shouldered such heavy burdens on her behalf without her knowledge.
"You fool!" She sobbed softly and lightly hammered her fists against his chest.
He did not mind. Instead, he lovingly wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes. "Don't cry."
"Although you were acting with my best interests at heart, you should have told me about something so important sooner," She glared at the man in front of her and expressed her dissatisfaction.
At the sight of his annoyed wife, he immediately confessed to his mistake with an honest attitude to comfort her." You're right. I failed to consider my options carefully."
A short while later, she relented to his coaxing and asked, "Does Greg know?"
"Not yet. But, I will look for a suitable opportunity to explain the situation to him now that you know the truth," He voiced his thoughts clearly.
She nodded in agreement. Then, a random thought seemed to occur to her. Her expression became somewhat worried as a result." Do you think Greg will be able to accept the truth?"
"Why wouldn't he?" He countered her question with another question.
She pursed her lips and pondered for a moment but could not find the right words to explain her doubt. It was just a feeling that she had.
He saw through her concerns. Thus, he hugged her tightly and cajoled her. "Greg loves you. He might be surprised to learn the truth at first, but I'm sure he won't have trouble accepting it."
That's right. Greg adores. He might even be happier to learn that I am his biological mother. But what if... She did not dare to bet on the possibility.
