Chapter 1330
Always Been Yours
âAre you sure you can help?â Tessa gave Kieran a doubtful look, finding her brother-in-law somewhat unreliable because it seemed to her that he only wanted to be involved for fun..
In the meantime, Kieran could tell from Tessaâs eyes how she felt about him. Thus, he stood straight and tried to explain for himself. âDonât underestimate me, Tessa.
I may not be as capable as Nicholas, but Iâm sure Iâm better than he is when it comes to relationships.
Furthermore, even if I canât be of help in the end, I still have a bunch of friends who could help. Theyâre all experts in stealing girlsâ hearts.â
Tessa was tempted by Kieranâs last few words to accept his help upon hearing his reply. After all, she was worried that Timothyâs simple- mindedness would keep him away from any ladies who could be interested in him. Therefore, she decided to get down to business with Kieran and started discussing her plan with him.
âIâm going to take advantage of Timothyâs birthday celebration by creating an opportunity for him to embrace his feelings and do something about it. What do you have in mind?â
âEasy. Iâll get a few of my friends to join the party and make him confess to his crush there and then.
There is no way it wonât work even for a nerd like Tim, considering the thrill and excitement at that time.â Kieran immediately suggested his idea to Tessa.
âAre you sure this will work?â Tessa expressed her doubt about Kieranâs suggestion. âIt will. I assure you, Tessa. Trust me.â Kieran patted his chest confidently.
Tessa skeptically looked at Kieran, somehow feeling worried about his plan, as she feared he would take it too far and end up backfiring. When Nicholas returned later and learned about Kieranâs plan, he hugged Tessa and said with a smile, âLet Kieran take care of that. If he ruins it, Iâll teach him a lesson for you.â
After hearing Nicholasâ assurance, Tessa decided to go along with Kieran and let him handle the matter. However, she reckoned she needed to give Sabrina a heads-up to prevent any unforeseen awkward situations.
The next morning, Tessa gave Sabrina a call and invited her to visit after having her breakfast. Not long after that, Sabrina arrived, smiling brightly at Tessa as she entered the living room with her purse in her hand. âHi, Tess.â
âPlease come in and have a seat.â Tessa greeted her guest with hospitality. After the maid served them tea and a fruit platter, Sabrina took a sip of her cup of tea and asked, âWhy did you want to see me, Tess?â
âThere is something Iâd like to discuss with you! Tessa went on to tell Sabrina about the plan she had made with Kieran. âI know about your feelings for Tim, but I also understand it can be a little hard for him to pick up your hints sometimes. So, I became a little worried as I noticed the tension between both of you, which is why Iâm hoping to create an opportunity through this occasion.â
Sabrina was stunned yet tempted to agree with Tessaâs plan. âThanks for planning it out for me, Tess.
But honestly, I donât know if he is into me at all. Thatâs the reason why weâve sounded each other out, I guess. What if the plan fails?â She nervously gazed at Tessa.
Tessa comforted Sabrina with a smile and said, âDonât worry. I raised Tim up, and I believe I know my little brother well.â âSoâ¦â Sabrinaâs eyes were filled with disbelief.
âThatâs right. He feels the same way for you as much as you do for him. Itâs just that he hasnât realized that himself, Tessa replied with a smile on her face.
Upon hearing Tessaâs affirmative answer, Sabrina could no longer hide her excitement. The next second, she immediately expressed her agreement and exhilaration about the plan. âOh my god! Thatâs so kind of you, Tess!â She happily gave Tessa a hug.
âTake good care of Timothy because Iâm entrusting you with the rest of his life.â Tessa smiled gently and gave Sabrina a hug as the latter nodded rapidly. After that, Tessa returned to her everyday life as a mother and a housewife while preparing for her brotherâs birthday celebration.
On the other hand, Timothy later learned that his sister, Tessa, had been busy preparing his birthday celebration and decided to swing by Dynasty Gardens for a visit.
âWhat brings you here? Have you eaten? Let me make a little something for you.â Tessa was happy at the sight of Timothyâs arrival.
