    Chapter 456 Tessa’s Surprise (3)


    Timothy had also noticed Tessa and the warm, gentle expression on her face. He immediately rushed


    over to embrace his sister.


    Cheerfully, Tessa hugged her brother back as well.


    It was only after a few moments did the two break their embrace.


    Recalling how panicked he was during the morning, Timothy reprimanded, “Don’t ever do this again.


    Do you know how worried I was when Nichs called me in the morning and told me that he couldn’t


    get a hold of you?”


    “Ohe on, I only wanted to give you guys a surprise.” Tessa stuck her tongue out, albeit looking


    somewhat apologetic.


    Timothy shot a look at her, exasperated. “This isn’t a surprise; this is clearly what I call a bombshell.”


    “Alright, I get it. I won’t do it this way next time.”


    “What do you mean next time?”


    “Er, anymore. I absolutely won’t do this anymore.”


    Tessa quickly apologized and started appeasing her brother’s anger upon realizing that Timothy


    seemed to be really angry this time.


    When Timothy’s anger seemed to have slightly subsided by Tessa’s repeated assurance, he asked,


    “Have you told Nichs that you’re back? He didn’t get any sleepst night when he couldn’t reach you


    and is still worried about you until now.”


    Hearing that Nichs lost sleep over how worried he was about herself, Tessa started to feel a little


    guilty.


    She rubbed her nose in embarrassment before sheepishly saying, “I haven’t told him yet.”


    “Why not?” Timothy frowned beforeing to a realization. “Did you n to surprise him as well?”


    Tessa nodded before smiling at him. “I know I might have been slightly out of line. But, now that I’ve


    come this far, I have to take this all the way, right?”


    Somehow, Timothy was persuaded by his sister, which led to him cooperating with her in surprising


    Nichs.


    In the president’s office of the Sawyer Group.


    Nichs’ emotions were all over the ce as he was so distracted by his worries for Tessa that he


    wasn’t able to get anything done.


    If only there weren’t all theseplications, I would have immediately taken a flight to Vienna.


    Timothy should be on the ne right now, right?


    He gazed at the azure sky beyond the window, his thoughts slowly drifting further and further.


    Some time passed before the inte by his desk rang. Nichs answered the inte to find the


    caller was Edward.


    “President Sawyer, Timothy is here to see you.”


    “Shouldn’t he be onboard a ne right now? Why did hee over here?” Although he was taken


    aback, he agreed to the meeting.


    Downstairs, Timothy led Tessa—who was dressed as his secretary—into the Sawyer Group.


    Because this was Tessa’s first visit to the Sawyer Group, she was overwhelmed with curiosity as she


    looked around while sighing to herself endlessly.


    Just as expected of the number onepany in the country. With ck and white as the theme of the


    interior design, it gives off a luxurious yet subtle atmosphere.


    Even the receptionist looks professional andpetent. It definitely makes one feelfortable with


    how motivated the receptionist was.

    Once the siblings had entered the elevator, Timothy’s eyes showed signs of resignation as he took a


    nce at his sister, who was full of excitement.


    However, he couldn’t resistughing when he thought about what was going to happen next. “I think


    Nichs will probably get a heart attack when he sees you.”


    “No he won’t. He’ll only be happy,” Tessa replied heartily before fixing her appearance with the mirror in


    the elevator. “Tim, help check if my makeup is okay.”


    She tidied up her clothing and her hair before turning around in ce for Timothy to check on her


    appearance.


    Per his sister’s request, Timothy examined his slightly nervous sister from top to bottom.


    Though he had said that Tessa was his secretary so that she would be allowed entry into the Sawyer


    Group, she was still dressed in her usual outfit.


    She was wearing a sky blue long-sleevedce waisted dress, which revealed her long legs, and was


    rocking a pair of seven centimeters high heels. Her outfit exuded young femininity yet still had a touch


    of elegance to it. To conclude, she was definitely pleasing to the eye.


    “No problems here,” Timothy replied after turning his attention forward to the elevator door. He then


    joked, “Even if there’s a problem, I’m sure Nichs would fix the problem.”


    Listening to what her brother was implying, Tessa blushed with her cheeks turning warm.


    “Looks like you’re asking for a fight by teasing your sister that way.” She feigned annoyance and lightly


    punched him at his shoulder.


    Timothy apologized whileughing heartily.


    Just as he noticed that they were about to reach the highest floor, he spoke up. “I’m telling you now: I’m


    only going to lead you until the area outside of Nichs’ office door.”
