    Chapter 1175 Family Talk


    Yet, his disappointment was reced by anticipation not long after. Daddy promised me the gift. I’ll get


    it sooner orter. At this thought, he waddled around in excitement.


    While they were chatting happily, Andrew came in and announced, “Sir, madam, Master Timothy and


    Master Kieran are here.” Kieran and Timothy made their entrance.


    “Fancy seeing you two together.” Tessa was surprised to see them together. Timothy smiled. “I ran into


    Kieran this afternoon, so we thought we’d have a drink tonight. He said Nichs has a lot of good stuff,


    so here we are. In his words, we’re here to clean out the cer.”


    “You want to clean out my cer?” Nichs shot his brother a killer look. Kieran cowered at once and


    shouted for help. “Help me, Tess!”


    Tessa was amused. A whileter, everyone started talking about Gregory and his getting first ce in


    thepetition. “He got first ce out of a few thousand contestants. That’s awesome.” Kieran


    gawked at the boy.


    Surprised, Timothy nodded. “Very well done. And he broke the record of the youngest champion.”


    Gregory felt a little sheepish from all the praise he was getting.


    Nichs said, “It’s his firstpetition. Shouldn’t you give him something tomemorate the event?


    You’re his uncles, after all.” Hey, they’re here for my wine, so I have to extort something from them.


    That’s my prerogative.


    Kieran and Timothy realized they had to gift the boy something. “We should, but I didn’t know you won


    thepetition. I’ll give you something next time, alright?” Timothy looked at the boy gently.


    Kieran said, “Me too. I’ll give you something next time.”


    Gregory was fine with it, and then they sat down for a little chat. Tessa asked, “Tim, you told me you


    have something important to handle. How’s it going?”


    “It’s in the negotiation process. The client’s a bit of a hassle, but I can handle this, sis. Don’t worry,”


    Timothy answered. Gently, Nichs said, “I’ll keep an eye on it. Nobody’s taking advantage of him.”


    Tessa was thankful for his help.


    Then, Timothy asked her about the performance. “How are the preparations going? Do you need


    help?”


    “It’s fine. I can deal with it.” Tessa omitted the bad parts, and before they knew it, they were talking


    about Amber.


    Timothy said, “You don’t have to deal with her anymore. I’ll pay her a visit when I have time, then I’ll get


    someone to keep an eye on her. You focus on your performance, sis.”


    “Thanks. I appreciate the help.” Tessa nodded with a smile. She was grateful her brother would


    shoulder that burden all so she wouldn’t have to deal with the bad part of their past.


    Timothy didn’t mind. Furthermore, the most he would do for the old hag was to pay for her medical


    expenses, and nothing more. He didn’t care about her. After all, she never once showed him or his


    sister love, so she had no right to ask for affection in return. Timothy would have left her for dead if not


    because he pitied the academy, and he was only taking over so that old hag wouldn’t yell at his sister.


    That night, the whole family gathered in the living room and chatted.


    Just when the mood felt right, Kieran thought it was time to go for his brother’s wine. “Nick, we should


    celebrate Greg’s victory with some wine.”


    Gregory exposed his little scheme. “Uncle, don’t drag me into this. You want Daddy’s wine, you tell him


    yourself.”N?velDrama.Org owns all content.
