Tessa concealed her emotions and nodded. “Everything will be fine.”
“Yeah, I also think that nothing else can stump us once this difficult time has passed.” Timothy nodded calmly.
Seeing how high-spirited he was, she hesitated. “Timothy, there’s something I’d like to discuss with you.”
“Hmm? What is it, Tessa?” Timothy was slightly puzzled.
“I think I’ll study abroad for these two years.” Tessa bit her lip.
He was a little surprised. Last time, she was unwilling to go abroad, but now, she was talking about leaving all of a sudden. He asked, “Why the sudden decision?”
“Well, I was thinking that I should go and broaden my horizons while I’m still young. I can’t learn anything by staying in Brentwood, and you’re aware of the current situation. I…” Tessa was troubled.
Now, Timothy’s company had only just started, yet they had already encountered these changes. She was actually embarrassed at this moment to reveal that she was leaving
It was as if… When her brother was doing well, she bathed in his glory, but now that he was in trouble, she didn’t provide help but ran away instead.
However, her absence was the best help that everyone could have and this was the only way to make everything better.
Timothy was only surprised for a moment before he smiled. “You’re right, Tessa. I’ll support you, of course. You don’t have to worry about me. Didn’t you say that last time? I’m your pride, so don’t worry, and leave boldly. I can take care of our family matters.”
Tessa gave her brother a forceful hug. “I believe you.” This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
“I believe in myself too. I believe that I can give you a better life, so that you can be free to pursue your dreams,” he said with a smile.
There were tears in Tessa’s eyes. She turned away from Timothy to wipe her tears away before turning to face him again with a smile. “We can do it.”
“Where do you want to go, Tessa?” Timothy asked.
Tessa hesitated for a while. In fact, she didn’t even think about leaving and heading to
another city, but now, she had to place this matter on the agenda at first instance, so she answered, “Vienna.”
For a moment, Timothy was taken aback, and he felt a little troubled. Tessa had an opportunity to study abroad and attend university, but she gave it all up for him, so he always felt that he was the one holding her back.
Fortunately, after so many years, she was once again setting foot on the land of her dreams.
Timothy withdrew his emotions and commented with a smile, “It’s still that place. You’ve thought about going there to study before, so I guess it’s a dream come true. Then, I’ll help you to make the arrangements now. However, do you want to inform President Sawyer and Young Master Gregory about this?”
She shook her head without thinking twice. “No. Even after I leave, you don’t have to tell them where I went. Don’t say anything. Even if Gregory asks, you have to keep it in and not tell him.”
When Timothy heard this, the doubts he had before climbed into his mind again. What is she avoiding?
“Remember, don’t say anything,” Tessa emphasized again.
Timothy had always supported all of Tessa’s decisions. Since she didn’t want him to tell, he would treat it as if he didn’t know anything. Nodding obediently, he promised, “Okay, I won’t say anything. Even if someone holds a knife to my neck, I won’t say anything either.”
She nodded, then went back to the house to pack up her belongings.
Meanwhile, Gregory had been waiting for the entire day, but Tessa didn’t show up even until night time, so he asked Nicholas, “Daddy, wasn’t Miss Tessa going to make me cookies today? Why hasn’t she come yet?”
When Nicholas heard Gregory’s inquiry, he said coldly, “She’s busy, so she won’t come today.”
“Does that mean I won’t get to eat those bear biscuits today?” Gregory felt a little downcast.
He had been yearning for those bear biscuits for a long time. After pestering Tessa for many days, she finally promised to make them for her today, but the plan was ruined once again.
Hearing Gregory’s complaints, Nicholas frowned slightly, then said in an educational manner, “Miss Tessa has her own life too. She can’t possibly be by your side all the time to take care of you. You’re not three years old anymore, so you don’t need
someone to be by your side all the time to guard you.”
