Chapter 1260


    After hearing what the doctor said, Kieran gave up on using the family’s status to ask for special


    treatment. He nced at Nichs 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?”


    Nichs and Timothy looked at each other. In the end, it was Timothy whopromised and gave the


    spot to Nichs, who put on a surgical gown before entering Tessa’s room in the ICU.


    Tessa looked frail as shey on the hospital bed. There were several tubes stuck to her and her face


    was ghostly pale. She looked like a fragile doll.


    Nichs felt as if someone had stabbed him with a knife. His mind was filled with self me 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 Nichs 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, Nichs?”


    “She’s still unconscious, but based on the readings on the machines, her condition is stable,” Nichs


    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.”


    Nichs 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.”


    Then, he turned to Timothy and said solemnly, “When I’m not around, help me take good care of your


    sister. Call me at once if anything happens to her.”


    “What are you going to do?”


    Timothy frowned as he stared at Nichs in puzzlement. He had no idea what could be more important


    than Tessa now.


    Stefania was also confused. “Where are you going, Nichs? Aren’t you staying here to look after


    Tessa and the baby?” Nichs walked off without responding to either one of them.

    “What’s up with him?” Stefania grumbled. “He nearly went mad when the doctors were still trying to


    save her, and now that she’s alright, he’s not even sticking around to look after her.”


    “I think he went to look for Edward.” Tobias looked on as Nichs left. He had a perceptive look in his


    eyes. Stefania was startled. She didn’t pick up on what was happening yet. ‘Did something happen at


    thepany?”


    However, she refuted herself immediately after asking that question. Knowing what


    Nichs was like, he wouldn’t leave Tessa’s side even if thepany was on the verge of bankruptcy.


    Timothy had a vague idea as to what Nichs was up to, but he wasn’t sure, so he looked at Tobias for


    confirmation.


    Fortunately, Tobias didn’t keep them waiting as he filled them in. “Edward called me just now and said


    they’ve located the driver who caused the crash. They’re at an empty warehouse just outside the city


    now. I think Nichs left because he heard the news too.”


    Stefania instantly began worrying again. Her worries doubled when she recalled Nichs’ bloodthirsty


    air earlier. “Go after your brother at once, Kieran! Don’t let him do anything rash!”


    She quickly urged Kieran to chase Nichs down as she was afraid Nichs might do something


    extreme. True enough, Nichs left because Edward had informed him that they found the perpetrator.


    The text was the spark that set Nichs’ fury alight. As he made his way over, his expression was grim


    and icy the whole time, but his eyes were ame with rage. Half an hourter, he arrived at the


    warehouse.
