Chapter 1099 Flying Back
Timothy did not expect Tessa to speak first. She briefed Nicholas on what they were
talking about.
She concluded by explaining her plan. “It will not be a good idea for Timothy to deal with
this, so I thought of flying back myself. It is also a chance for Gregory to spend some time
with your parents. They were reluctant the last time they parted ways with him.”
After hearing all that, Nicholas did not want her to be handling this situation
herself. However, he knew there was no use objecting to it. She never listened to him
when Timothy’s reputation was involved. Hence, the only thing he could do was agree
with the idea.
“Nicholas!” Timothy was shocked and shot him a disapproving glare. He could not
understand why Nicholas agreed to the idea. There was no way Nicholas did not know
what the Reinharts were like.
Nicholas shot him a comforting look before slowly saying, “Don’t worry. I will be flying back
with her. I need to fly back anyway. I have been out of the country for so long that there is
a lot of work waiting for me in the home office. Alright. It is settled. That is what we will
do.”

After a few more minutes of discussion, Tessa headed upstairs to pack her things.
Timothy silently heaved a sigh as he watched her leave.
He knew why she was so stubborn, but that was exactly why he did not want her to head
back and suffer.
She had suffered enough for him over the years.
Perhaps Nicholas saw how worried Timothy looked, for he walked over and comfortingly
said, “I will be there. No one can make her suffer anything.”
Hearing that, Timothy looked up at him.
“I believe you, but that old woman is crazy. When Tess goes to the hospital, you must stay
by her side and protect her. Do not ever let that maniac hurt her at all.”
Timothy wanted to make sure Nicholas understood.
Nicholas nodded.
That afternoon, Nicholas and Tessa flew back home along with Gregory.
It was a long journey. By the time they landed in Southend, it was the next morning.
Outside the airport, Kieran was waiting with the car.
“Mom and Dad had the chef prepare a feast for you when they found out you were coming
back. It is to welcome you back.”
On the drive back, Kieran came clean and told them about the task their parents had set
for him.
Nicholas did not reply. Instead, he turned to Tessa and asked, “Are you tired?”
“No,” she answered. “I slept well on the plane.”
She knew what he was trying to say. If she were tired, they would head back to rest first.
However, she did not want all of his parent’s efforts to go to waste.
When he saw no exhaustion lingering in her eyes, he decided to believe her. “Let us head
over then.”
Kieran was speechless.
In fact, he did not even know what words could accurately describe what he felt right now.
Somehow, it felt like Nicholas had been showing off again.
…
Back at the Sawyer Residence, Stefania and Tobias were ecstatic to see Gregory.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhile they met not long ago, they still missed him.
The couple showered him with hugs and kisses.
“Did you miss us, Greg?”
“I do! I miss you every single day!”
He proceeded to charm them with sweet words.
The couple was bursting with joy when he said that.
Meanwhile, Nicholas and Tessa silently watched them.
After a few more minutes of their joyful reunion, Stefania and Tobias let go of Gregory and
turned to them. “Kieran, you bought a new toy for Gregory, right? Go bring him to it.”
“Okay,” said Kieran. “Come, Greg, let us check out your new toy.”
He knew his parents wanted to speak to Nicholas and Tessa in private, so he willingly led
Gregory away.
Even as Stefania watched Gregory disappear into the living room, she asked about Tessa’s
health first instead of going straight to the point.
“How have you been over the past few days? How is the baby?”
“We are both doing well,” Tessa replied. “Don’t worry, Mom.”
Tessa spoke in a calm and obedient tone.
Stefania nodded. It was only then that she stopped beating around the bush. “You were
right to fly back. You should visit Amber. No matter what she did in the past, she is still
your elder. If you ignore her, people will talk. Your reputation would be affecte
