Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 1461

Chapter 1461 Failed as a Mother

"I only suffered some minor injuries. It's nothing serious." Timothy did not want to worry his sister, so he deliberately concealed the truth from her.

Therefore, Tessa did not dwell on the matter and heaved a sigh of relief. "I'm glad you're fine."

At this moment, Stefania came forward with Gordon in her arms to express her concern for Tessa.

"Comparatively, your situation is far more severe. Your body was initially recovering from your previous injuries. But, on top of that, you've added such severe wounds to your already ailing body. I'm afraid it will take at least a year for you to heal completely."

As soon as the words left her mouth, everybody else nodded in agreement.

Timothy was also distraught and suggested, "Why don't you rest for a year or so, Tess?"

"I will take some time to recuperate." Tessa knew that they had her best interests at heart, so she did not reject the suggestion.

Afterward, she chatted with her family for some time until she succumbed to her exhaustion and fell into a deep sleep. Since she had just suffered from a bad concussion, it was only natural for her to need more rest than usual.

Stefania soon left the hospital ward with Gregory and Gordon.

On the other hand, Timothy stayed behind.

Needless to say, Nicholas knew the reason why Timothy had chosen to stay behind. He considerately tucked the blankets around Tessa and walked out of the hospital ward.

Timothy immediately understood and quickly followed Nicholas out of the hospital room. As soon as they left the hospital ward, he anxiously questioned Nicholas. "I heard that Edward has found the culprit who tried to murder my sister."

Nicholas nodded and relayed the entire story without hiding anything.

"It's her?!" Like Tessa, Timothy was highly shocked after hearing the truth. His initial reaction was quickly followed by a wave of hatred and loathing. He looked at Nicholas with a sharp gaze and forced his words out through gritted teeth, "That woman has been targeting my sister for a long time. I can't believe she has not repented her mistakes even after changing her appearance. In that case, we have to ensure that she will not get off lightly this time."
