Chapter 100 Not Sure Yet
Tess followed behind.
Layla was awake now, resting in her arms, her wide eyes full of curiosity. Even though they’d been here before, the place still amazed her.
Evermount Villa was huge, and its layout shifted every few steps. It was screaming luxury.
“Go and settle down. I’ll wait for you for dinner.”
Finn set the suitcase just outside Tess’s bedroom but didn’t come inside.
Tess didn’t waste time. She replied softly with a hum and walked in.
The moment she opened the door, a gentle scent of jasmine filled the air.
Tess paused, holding Layla tighter as memories of the last day she’d spent here a year ago came flooding back.
The place looked the same, but her mindset was completely different now.
A dull ache bloomed in her chest as the memories pressed in.
As if sensing her mother’s change in mood, Layla lifted her tiny hand and softly touched Tess’s cheek.
Tess’s heart melted. She bent down.
Layla’s big eyes curved charmingly as she giggled.
The bright, clear sound of her child’s laughter pushed away the heaviness in the room, warming Tess’s heart.
Shaking off the lingering emotions, she opened the suitcase and began unpacking clothes for both herself and Layla to put in the
closet.
But when she opened it, she was surprised to find a row of brand-new baby clothes-all high-end designer stuff.
Tess blinked.
She picked up one piece casually, the smooth, delicate fabric clearly showing its expensive quality.
A thought hit her.
She opened the other closet door.
Inside, neatly arranged, were custom outfits, all modern and stylish.
All these must’ve cost hundreds of thousands.
Did Finn prepare all this?
It’s like he’s been waiting for me to come back all along, like I’ve always been Mrs. Lock, and nothing has ever changed.
A swirl of mixed emotions rose inside Tess. She wasn’t sure how to react.
Still, everything in front of her added to her burden.
Layla, meanwhile, clearly loved it. She squealed, waving her hands excitedly at the clothes.
When she grabbed a piece with lace and ribbons, her laughter grew even louder.
Knock, knock.
A firm, steady knock came from outside the door.
“Dinner’s ready.”
Finn’s voice was short and serious.
