Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 1066

Chapter 1066 Getting Acknowledged by the Sawyers

When Kieran saw the siblings’ toast, he glanced at his parents and Remus, who sat across from him. In that split second, an idea formed in his mind, and he wasted no time in raising his wine glass and echoed, “That’s right! We haven’t congratulated Tessa on her success in this evening’s special concert. So raise a glass to toast to her success!”

When Kieran’s proclamation ended, Nicholas expressed his support by raising his wine glass. Gregory, too, held up his glass of milk and said adorably, “Congratulations, Mommy!”

Sure enough, having known Kieran for their lifetime, how would Stefania, Tobias, and Remus not be able to discern his little tricks? However, they had no intention to expose him. Instead, they followed suit and raised their respective glasses in support.

The smile on Tessa’s face became increasingly brighter after receiving their congratulatory toast.

Deep down, she could feel that Nicholas’ family seemed to have finally accepted her.

Nicholas caught sight of Tessa’s happy grin, but he didn’t bring any attention to it. Instead, he merely took a piece of the deshelled shrimp and placed it onto her plate. “Here. Eat more.”

Tessa nodded with a smile.

At first, Stefania, who sat on the opposite side, still felt a little jealous. Yet, before she could wallow in her jealousy, someone suddenly placed a piece of the deboned fish onto her plate. That action was followed by Tobias’ gentle voice ringing in her ears. “Here. Have some. I’ve deboned it for you.”

When Kieran saw this scene, he instantly had a hurt expression on his face. Then, he said in a quirky manner, “Are you guys sure what we’re doing now is enjoying our supper? It looks to me that I’m clearly witnessing a scene straight out of a romance drama. Oh, this is too much! Timothy, how about you put some dishes onto my plate too? I want someone to care about me too.”

As he spoke, he even handed over his plate to Timothy.

Unfortunately for Kieran, Timothy utterly ignored him. There was no way he was going to do something like that.

The others, on the other hand, were greatly amused by their interaction.

Tessa glanced at Remus for a moment, then scooped a dish that suited an elder’s taste buds and served it to him. “Grandpa, please have some more. You must have been tired from moving around for the whole day today.”

It was quite late by the time they finished enjoying their supper.

When Nicholas saw the unconcealed exhaustion on Tessa’s face, he worriedly suggested, “Let me help you into the room so you can have your rest.”

After looking at Stefania, Tobias, and Remus, who were yet to feel sleepy, Tessa shook her head and declined, “It’s alright. I’m not that tired.”

After all, she felt it was rather inappropriate for her to retire before the elders turned in.
