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.”
At that, Timothy had no choice but to nod in acquiescence.

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?”
