Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 1260

After hearing what the doctor said, Kieran gave up on using the family’s status to ask for special treatment. He glanced at Nicholas and Timothy before advising, “For the sake of Tessa’s safety, why don’t you two discuss and see who’ll go in to see her?”

Nicholas and Timothy looked at each other. In the end, it was Timothy who compromised and gave the spot to Nicholas, who put on a surgical gown before entering Tessa’s room in the ICU.

Tessa looked frail as she lay on the hospital bed. There were several tubes stuck to her and her face was ghostly pale. She looked like a fragile doll.

Nicholas felt as if someone had stabbed him with a knife. His mind was filled with self-blame and regret.

“I’m sorry. I failed to protect you.” He kneeled beside the bed and gently brought Tessa’s hand to his face. “Get better soon, okay? The baby and I are waiting for you.”

“You’ve been so curious to know whom the baby takes after, right? You can find out just as soon as you wake up.” “I’ll keep waiting for you, no matter how long it takes.

There was so much Nicholas wanted to say, but he only had five minutes which was soon over. His eyes were red as he walked back out. Timothy quickly asked, “How’s my sister, Nicholas?”

“She’s still unconscious, but based on the readings on the machines, her condition is stable,” Nicholas replied. Timothy exhaled in relief. “Everything will be fine since her condition’s stable. Now, we just need to wait for her to wake up.”

Nicholas nodded lightly. He had finally regained his cool, and before anyone else could react, he started giving off an almost bloodthirsty air. He looked at his parents and said grimly, “I’ll leave you in charge of the children.”

However, she refuted herself immediately after asking that question. Knowing what Nicholas was like, he wouldn’t leave Tessa’s side even if the company was on the verge of bankruptcy.

Timothy had a vague idea as to what Nicholas was up to, but he wasn’t sure, so he looked at Tobias for confirmation.

Fortunately, Tobias didn’t keep them waiting as he filled them in. “Edward called me just now and said they’ve located the driver who caused the crash. They’re at an empty warehouse just outside the city now. I think Nicholas left because he heard the news too.”

Stefania instantly began worrying again. Her worries doubled when she recalled Nicholas’ bloodthirsty air earlier. “Go after your brother at once, Kieran! Don’t let him do anything rash!”

She quickly urged Kieran to chase Nicholas down as she was afraid Nicholas might do something extreme. True enough, Nicholas left because Edward had informed him that they found the perpetrator.

The text was the spark that set Nicholas’ fury alight. As he made his way over, his expression was grim and icy the whole time, but his eyes were aflame with rage. Half an hour later, he arrived at the warehouse.
