Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 1100

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.

Knock. 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.
