Chapter 173 It was a brand that Timothy was familiar with-he had done some planning and studied all of the major car
brands.
The car that the salesperson showed them was pretty much what he had expected, but it didn’t feel quite
classy enough.
Since he was looking for a car for corporate use, he would have to look for something better.
Although he was not a vain man, there were some principles of the industry that he understood.
Since his company was just starting, he would undoubtedly need to travel to his clients. If the car looked
terrible, the client would inevitably doubt the ability of the company and look down on it. It wouldn’t be
worth it to have such an unnecessary doubt.
On the other hand, if the car was perfect, it would look like he tried too hard-not an outcome that he
wanted either
“Can I look at the Mercedes instead?” he asked, pointing at a black Mercedes-Benz.
The salesperson’s eyes instantly brightened when that question was heard. “Of course. You have good
taste, sir. That model was released this year and some people have been purchasing it as well. It has
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsleek lines and good performance while being cost-effective. It’s not that expensive.”
The trio then walked over to the car. After getting into the car, Timothy tested out its different functions
and how it felt under his hands before turning to look at Tessa. “What do you think?”
“Not bad.” She nodded.
This model was much better than the one they had previously looked at, and for someone who was
about to start his own company, he was better suited driving a Mercedes as well.
“We’ll take this one, then.” Timothy inclined his head at the salesperson before turning to Tessa. “Next,
let’s look for a car for you.”
“Me? I don’t need one.” Tessa waved her hands with a frown.
Although they were somewhat well-off now, they were not meant to be splurging their money. Now that
he was about to start his own company, there would no doubt be a lot of places in the future where he
would need to spend money on.
To spend it on a car for her would be too much of a waste!
“It’s fine, Tessa. Let’s get you one. I’ve long thought about buying a car for you, and now that we’re
already here, we might as well get you one. Otherwise, we’d have to come again in the future, and that
would be so troublesome.”
Although Timothy knew what his sister was worried about he’d already decided before coming over that
he would get Tessa a car.
After all, he wanted nothing but the best for her.
“There’s no need to buy one for me. It’s not like I’m always on the go, anyway. The vehicle would only be
sitting there and collecting dust, which would be such a waste.” Despite Timothy’s reassurances, Tessa
was still unwilling.
Seeing that Timothy was extremely generous, the salesperson at the car dealership hurried to interject,
“It’s rare for a brother to dote on his sister so much, miss. You should accept his gift. Even if you don’t
head out a lot, there might be a day when you’ll need to leave the house. It’ll come in handy then. I’ve
been working here for at least five or six years, and this is the first time I’m seeing a pair of siblings with
such a good relationship. Truly, I’m envious! Since your brother wants to give you a car, why shouldn’t
you accept it?”
An exasperated Tessa could only nod. “It’s for home use, so it needn’t be too extravagant.”
She quickly chose a car that was worth 250,000.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBy the time they completed the paperwork, it was already noon.
Since they were too lazy to cook at home, the siblings dined outdoors before heading back:
Upon arriving home, Timothy told his sister, “I have to go to work, so I can’t keep you company this
afternoon. Do be careful when you’re home alone and don’t do any heavy labor, okay? If there’s anything
that you need done, just wait until I’m home.”
“Okay.” Tessa nodded with a smile. “It’s not like I’m a three-year-old. I don’t need you to accompany me.
Quickly head back to work as company matters are more important.”
“Be careful when you attend the concert tonight, then. Stay safe and call me when it ends so that I can
head over to pick you up,” he exhorted softly.
“I know, I know.” Once again, she inclined her head.
As she watched his confident figure leave the house, she felt in a much better mood.
Without Tessa even noticing, Timothy had grown into an adult who was much more mature in speech
and action than he was as a child. He had such a bright future as well and would be opening his own
company in the blink of an eye.
As she reflected on how he had changed these past few years, she suddenly realized that he doted on
her so much that her motherly attitude had somehow turned into a maidenly one.
Truly, she was all too grateful to have such a good younger brother.
