Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 1260

After hearing what the doctor said, Kieran gave up on using the family’s status to ask for special treatment. He glanced at Nicholas and Timothy before advising, “For the sake of Tessa’s safety, why don’t you two discuss and see who’ll go in to see her?”

Nicholas and Timothy looked at each other. In the end, it was Timothy who compromised and gave the spot to Nicholas, who put on a surgical gown before entering Tessa’s room in the ICU.

Tessa looked frail as she lay on the hospital bed. There were several tubes stuck to her and her face was ghostly pale. She looked like a fragile doll.

Nicholas felt as if someone had stabbed him with a knife. His mind was filled with self-blame and regret.

“I’m sorry. I failed to protect you.” He kneeled beside the bed and gently brought Tessa’s hand to his face. “Get better soon, okay? The baby and I are waiting for you.”

“You’ve been so curious to know whom the baby takes after, right? You can find out just as soon as you wake up.” “I’ll keep waiting for you, no matter how long it takes.

There was so much Nicholas wanted to say, but he only had five minutes which was soon over. His eyes were red as he walked back out. Timothy quickly asked, “How’s my sister, Nicholas?”

“She’s still unconscious, but based on the readings on the machines, her condition is stable,” Nicholas replied. Timothy exhaled in relief. “Everything will be fine since her condition’s stable. Now, we just need to wait for her to wake up.”

Nicholas nodded lightly. He had finally regained his cool, and before anyone else could react, he started giving off an almost bloodthirsty air. He looked at his parents and said grimly, “I’ll leave you in charge of the children.”
