The Devil's Touch
#118
Tessa gets out of the car and steps into Javier's mansion with a smile on her feet and greets everyone inside.
"Morning ..."
Everyone turned around and turned their heads and screamed happily at Tessa's presence. "Tessa ..."
Liana ran over and hugged her daughter who finally wanted to leave the room.
"Darling you're okay?" ask Liana.
Tessa nodded. "Yes, Mom. I'm fine."
"This kid just came out of the cave." Kara said with a smile, she approached Tessa and hugged her.
"Mommy misses you, Tessa." Kara hugs Tessa while stroking the woman's back.
"Tessa misses Mommy Kara too."
Rania approached by walking slowly with a cane in her hand.
"Grandma ..." Tessa approaches Rania. "Grandma just sit, don't walk a lot."
"Yes, it's old to sit down," Xander continued on the sofa shouting. Everyone chuckles slowly.
"I can still walk" said Rania half annoyed. Kara immediately approached Rania and brought her back to sit on the sofa.
"Here you go, let's sit down again."
Secretary Han came out of the room when he heard the sound of laughter from the people in the living room.
"There's a guest turned out .." secretary Han approached Tessa and embraced Tessa affectionately.
"Huhh his father went somewhere." Liana flicked her lips in annoyance, not Thomas who hugged Tessa instead Secretary Han.
Secretary Han took off his embrace and turned to Liana. "Your husband is helping Philip slaughter pigs."
Tessa and Liana suddenly widened their eyes. Since when was Thomas willing to help Philip in terms of taking care of his pigs.
"Don't you go crazy Han!" liana.
"That's right," said Xander on the sofa with a slanted smile.
"I didn't lie to Liana. Let's sit down, Tessa." Secretary Han invites Tessa to sit on the sofa leaving Liana still agape with the news of Thomas helping Philip.
They chatted for a few minutes on the couch, asking Tessa for news because they were worried that Tessa rarely went out of the room and did not even participate in the burning event that night. Asking about Tessa's daily life, Tessa's childhood makes them laugh and questions whether or not Tessa has a boyfriend.
"So when are you going to be single? the four of you are not married yet. Yes the first Maxime possible later," said Kara made Tessa smile bitterly at the possibility of Maxime getting married. Not with himself.
"Do you want to be betrothed by your father? just like Miwa was?" ask Liana.
"Mom, I'm lazy to talk about that. If I could get married, I would get married. Otherwise, it's fine yourself."
Liana clucked. "Tessa .. You can't be like this. Mom wants to see mommy's only daughter get married."
"Tessaa .." shouted Sky down the stairs with a face of sumringah seeing the presence of Tessa. Behind him was Javier smiling towards Tessa.
"Mommy Sky .." Tessa's eyes sparkled happy to see Sky. He moved from his seat to Sky.
Liana just snorted, she was having a serious talk with her daughter to be distracted by Sky's presence.
Tessa immediately hugged Sky while whining spoiled, even though to her own mother Tessa not until this pampered. "Mommy Tessa Kangen ..."
"Mommy also misses you tau ..." Sky took off his embrace and scooped up the two female cheeks while smiling.
Tessa's actual presence at Javier's mansion is only to meet Sky. He misses Maxime, misses Maxime asking news and attention to him even if only limited to chatting.
Since Milan, Tessa feels Maxime changed. Rarely send a message to him even if only to ask the news.
As a result to vent his longing to Maxime, Tessa chose to meet Sky, the man she loved the most.
Even now, Tessa is seen hugging Sky again tightly as if she wants to let out the longing she should have let out to Maxime.
Not felt, tears just fell against the cheek of the woman. Javier, standing behind Sky, finds Tessa crying in his wife's arms. The crying will be held back to Maxime.
"Tessa, why are you crying?" javier asked as he moved closer to Tessa and stroked the woman's head.
Everyone is surprised. Especially Liana. Why did his daughter suddenly cry.
Sky immediately pushed Tessa's body only to see the two female eyeballs.
"I-I'm fine" said Tessa softly as she wiped her tears. Others seem confused by Tessa. Liana immediately approached her daughter.
"You got a problem hm?" ask Sky.
"Why baby? why crying?" liana asked half worriedly.
Tessa smiled bitterly. "I'm fine, I just feel guilty because that day I didn't go to the burnt-out show and was cold with Mommy ..." Tessa looked at Liana.
"And also being cold to Daddy, when I shouldn't be like that when my mood is bad, right. I'm sorry .." continued Tessa who of course lied.
Sky and Liana just looked at each other. Those who were sitting on the sofa could also only look at each other as if astonished by Tessa's current attitude.
