Chapter 1100 Amber
“You’re right, Mom. That is what I thought too,” Tessa said. She nodded in
acknowledgment. Moreover, she did not just come back for Timothy and herself. She also
did it for someone else.
People always said a married couple was a team. Now that she was part of the Sawyers,
she could not let this incident smear the Sawyers’ reputation.
After all, if word got out, people would call them heartless and ungrateful. While she did
not care about her own reputation, she could not drag Nicholas down with her.
After lunch, Tessa grew tired. She did sleep on the plane, but they had been flying for over
twelve hours. Stefania could see the fatigue on her face, so she did not insist Nicholas and
Tessa stay. Instead, she told them to head home.
They went home and napped for two hours. Then, she headed over to the hospital. Lying
on the white hospital bed of the ICU, Amber looked so much older, thinner, and darker
than before.
Her eyes blankly stared up at the ceiling while the air of death hung around her. When
Tessa saw that, she frowned. No emotions stirred within her though.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKnock. Knock. She knocked on the door and walked in. Amber reacted upon hearing that
sound, turning to look at the door. When she saw Tessa, her entire body tensed up.
Intense hatred filled her previously dull eyes. “You b*tch! Finally, you are back, you stup*d
sl*t!”
She barked and spat at Tessa in a vulgar manner. When she looked around and found no
one else standing beside Tessa, she questioned, “Where is Timothy, that bast*rd? Why is
he not here?”
Tessa’s face immediately clouded over as disgust filled her. She did not plan on criticizing
Amber for her crass words, but Amber should never have insulted her brother.
“You sound very energetic, like someone who could live until a hundred years old and not
at all like a cancer patient. It seems as if I came for nothing today. You do not need me to
take care of you.”
She then turned to leave the room.
Amber’s hatred blazed brighter when she heard that. At the same time, she was
panicking.
If Tessa abandoned her as well, someone like her with that kind of illness would not have
any other option than death.
She did not want to die. She wanted to live.
“Stop right there, you sl*t!”
She wanted to make Tessa stop.
While Tessa paused, she did not truly stop walking.
After all, she did not like being abused and insulted.
When Amber saw Tessa ignoring her, she grew frustrated.
“Everyone, look!” Amber shrieked. “These people don’t even care if their grandmother
dies!”
“What has the world come to? They are rich, yet they will not pay for their grandmother’s
treatment. Oh, how they bite the hand that fed them.”
“What a cursed life I have,” she continued. “Why am I given such cruel grandchildren?”
Tessa curled her hands into fists when she heard the howling.
Eventually, she caved into her anger and turned back to shout, “Shut up!”
When Amber saw that, satisfaction flashed across her eyes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe just knew Tessa and Timothy would care about their reputation now that they were
rich and famous.
“I can shut up, but you are not allowed to leave. Also, tell Timothy to come here!”
The insolent way Amber was acting made Tessa’s fury burn so brightly that it was
impossible to hide it any longer.
From the way Amber was trying to order her around, it was clear she had yet to realize
what was going on.
Tessa turned to leave the room, not wanting to say another word.
Amber did not realize her threats were ineffective against Tessa. At that thought, she
panicked.
“Stop right there, Tessa! You cannot leave!”
She struggled to get out of bed, but due to her illness, she did not have the strength to do
so.
Tessa had not meant to truly leave anyway. She merely wanted to give the old hag a
scare.
Now that Amber knew her place, Tessa turned back around and coldly said, “I can stay,
but you must keep your mouth shut. Also, Timothy is a busy man. He could not come, so
from now on, I am in charge of anything to do with you. If you ever say anything rude to
me again, I will truly wash my hands off of you.”
