Chapter 1090 Family Portrait

“Do you still have a digital copy of this photo?” Nicholas asked Alina as he pointed to the photo. He planned on using it as his phone wallpaper.

When Gregory saw the photo, he grew quite jealous. He quickly tugged on Tessa’s hand and whined, “Mommy, when will we take a photo together? I want to take one with my baby sister, just like Daddy did!” I can’t let Daddy be the only one who gets close to my baby sister, or she will not want me around when she’s born!

Tessa had no idea what was going on in the little boy’s mind and simply thought he was jealous. Bemused, she looked up at Alina and asked, “Are you free today? I’d like to take a photo with my kid.”

“Yes, of course! I’ve got nothing going on anyway,” Alina said, nodding enthusiastically. She glanced over at Gregory, and the more she appraised him, the more she found him endearing. He had delicately chiseled features. Clearly, his parents’ stunning genetics had been passed down to him.

“Mrs. Sawyer, your son is absolutely adorable! You’re so lucky to have a little angel like him,” she praised wholeheartedly.

Tessa beamed upon hearing this. After all, any mother would want their child to be the object of praise.

After a round of pleasantries, Alina got to work.

Gregory wanted photos with his baby sister, just like Nicholas, so Alina took them for him. Following that, she took several photos of Gregory and Tessa grinning at each other and a few more of them holding hands.

The photos had a different aesthetic from the vogue-esque photos that Alina had taken the day before. Nevertheless, she was inspired by Tessa’s motherly love and Gregory’s childlike wonder and worked toUpstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

capture these candid moments with her camera.

In between shots, she had Nicholas and Timothy join in the fun. “This is perfect!” she exclaimed as she stared at the photos in her camera.

Nicholas and Timothy looked like dashing knights in armor as each stood on either side of Tessa. The photos had brought out the two men’s varying characters, but it didn’t distract from their towering builds and good looks. It was hard to believe that they weren’t runway models.

As for Gregory, he was positioned in front of all three of the adults in the frame, and he wore a wide grin.

This photo was like a mini family portrait.

Tessa stared at the photo. She had never felt happier than at that moment, knowing she was surrounded by those she loved.

The morning passed in the blink of an eye, and when noon rolled around, Tessa started yawning.

Without waiting for Nicholas to point it out, Alina took note of Tessa’s exhaustion and immediately wrapped up the photo shoot, then began to leave. “I’ll have these photos developed later. I’ll meet you at the same place tomorrow to hand the photos over. As for the fee, I’ll lump it together with the last bill.”

“Alright, then. Thanks, Alina,” Tessa said with a nod.

The quartet watched Alina leave, then went to a restaurant for lunch. They strolled around the area that afternoon and did not return until it was dinnertime.

Gregory was already dozing off when they got home, so Tessa helped him wash up and tucked him in for the evening.

On the other hand, Timothy and Nicholas were still in high spirits despite the long day. They sat in the living room and had a casual discussion about the company.

It wasn’t until much later that Tessa came downstairs, having already tucked Gregory in, and saw her brother and husband chatting animatedly in the living room.

Timothy noticed her and said, “Tessa, when did you get down here? Is Greg asleep?”

“Yes,” she replied, nodding. Now that they had discovered her presence, she walked over to the couch and sat next to Nicholas. “So, what were you two talking about?”

“The new company,” Timothy answered frankly.

It was only then that Tessa remembered he was planning to set up a branch in Vienna. She straightened up in her seat and asked in concern, “How’s everything going? Did you find a suitable location for the company?”

“Yes, and now we’re waiting for a team to go over before we officially open for business.”

“Don’t you need to refurbish the place?” Tessa asked doubtfully.

He chuckled. “No, the office is more or less ready for use.”

“Huh. Looks like you’ve got it all sorted, then,” Tessa smiled. Then, she said curiously, “Where did you say your new company is going to be located? I’ll be sure to drop by when we get back.”
