Chapter 565 The Second Test
Tessa suddenly laughed and booked her arms around his neck. "When did Mr. Landon becsuch a
gentleman?"
"I've always been this way-with you." Landon lowered his head and kissed the corner of her eye, kissing away

"Once Grandpa's better," Tessa finished for him, lightly tapping his Adam's apple with her finger. "Alright."
Landon gave in, though his arms around her didn't loosen. "Lethold you a bit longer."

"Alright, I'll see you out." Tessa personally escorted Mr. Reginald to the gates of the medical university.
Just as she reached the entrance, her phone buzzed. Ethan's nflashed across the screen.
