Chapter 158
Always Been Yours
âThank you, President Sawyer.â Timothy thanked Nicholas sincerely while looking at him.
Nicholas nodded and answered, âYouâre welcome.â
âWhat happened, Tess? Why did you go to that place and get into trouble with those people?â Timothy asked.
Then, Tessa told him a simplified version of what happened. âItâs all Sophiaâs doing. Using your phone, she told someone to call me and pick you upâ¦â
The look on Timothyâs face changed after he heard that, and he gave her a guilty look. âIâm sorry, Tess.
I really am. I lost my cell phone and thought that I left it in the classroom, so I didnât tell you beforehand.â
âItâs alright. Everything is fine now, isnât it?â she said, flashing him an assuring smile.
She understood her brother too well; if she didnât reassure him properly, he might feel guilty for months, or maybe even years, and the last thing she wanted was for him to return to his introverted self from before.
âItâs okay. Everything is fine, really. At least now we know what Sophia and Silas are up to now. What doesnât kill you makes you stronger, right? And even if your phone wasnât stolen from you, theyâd most probably think of other schemes. Now that President Sawyer has saved me, Young Master Finch wouldnât dare to cause us more trouble anymore even though heâs injured, and I reckon heâll settle the score with Sophia instead. All we have to do is watch what happens to them.â
Obediently, Timothy nodded. âYouâre right.â But then, he gritted his teeth. âBut that woman is really crossing a line by doing something like this. I definitely wonât forgive her!â
Tessa sighed and tried to straighten him out. âItâs alright; itâs fine, really. You shouldnât be angry. Karma will take care of the villains, so we shouldnât soil our hands.â
âOkay,â he muttered and nodded unwillingly.
No matter what, he wouldnât let this greedy family off. Donât even think about hurting my sister again!
Nodding, Tessa said, âIâm a little tired.â
Today, she was already exhausted from cleaning up the house and suffering a great shock at the clubhouse.
However, as she didnât know about Timothyâs situation until now, she was finally relieved and much more assured after seeing for herself that he was doing well and was not hurt.
In addition, the doctor gave her some anti-inflammatory medication and painkillers when he stitched back her wound, and the effects of the drugs was making her drowsy now.
âAlright. Sleep well, Tess. Iâll be staying by your side,â Timothy said.
Soon, he saw that she had really fallen asleep, and he paced toward Nicholas. âPresident Sawyer, can you please do me a favor?â
Lifting his gaze at him, Nicholas said, âTell me what you need.â
âIâm leaving for a while. Please look after my sister because Iâm worried that the Reinharts wonât let this matter rest and will come here to make a scene,â Timothy explained.
Nicholas nodded at that and asked, âWhere are you going?â
âThank you for the trouble, President Sawyer.â Instead of answering him, Timothy left the ward with a cold face after asking for a favor.
The muscles on Nicholasâ face tensed up, and he instructed Edward, âFollow him and make sure heâs alright.â
From the way Timothy acted, it was highly possible that he was going to the Reinharts to settle the score, but with that figure of his, just one slap from Amber was enough to take him down.
With Tessa still hospitalized, Nicholas reckoned that it would be best to keep him out of trouble.
Clearly, Edward had thought of this as well, and he hurriedly answered, âOkay, President Sawyer.â
Then, he left the ward as well to carry out his mission.
After stepping out of the hospital, Timothy stopped a cab.
Seeing the fury written all over his face, the driver shuddered. âWhere⦠Would you like to go?â
âCherry Oak Estates,â Timothy answered with a stoic expression.
The driverâs mouth opened, but he closed it in the end and thought, This guy came out of the hospital in a huff. Is he going for his revenge? Should I call the police?
Despite that, he lost all guts when he looked at Timothyâs expression again. Forget it. This has nothing to do with me. All I have to do is drop him off at his destination.
