Chapter 388: His Little Boy.
Arissa gave Nicklaus a surprised look when she spotted Mr Wyatt among the people seated at the dining table.
She was beyond shocked when she saw him for the first time since she signed her contract. She took her eyes off him and immediately her gaze landed on Mrs. Wyatt and Geal, her face brightened once more.
Nicklaus helped her to take her seat beside him. Arissa felt eyes on her and when she turned, it was Nicklaus’s father she immediately felt uncomfortable
She knows the man doesn’t like her and that is the reason she does not appreciate his stares. Mrs. Wyatt gave her a small smile which she managed to return while Geal whinked at her and Nicklaus.
"Here," Mrs Wyatt’s excited voice resounded through the dining as she passed Arissa a plate of chicken breast, "Eat up, you look hungry,"
Arissa accepted the plate from her timidly and dropped it before her. She took out some portions of food and began to eat, trying her best not to glance at Mr. Wyatt.
Nicklaus gave her a small back rub. It soothes her and when she finally relaxed even under his father’s glare, he added rice to his plate and began to eat.
The dining table went silent and only the sound of cutleries could be heard. Geal passed Nicklaus occasional smirks as he couldn’t wait to release teaseful words at him.
Unlike Arissa’s expectations when she first spotted Mr. Wyatt, dinner went peacefully and she felt comfortable even without a conversation from anyone.
