Chapter 1329


    Meanwhile, Timothy could also notice what was wrong but decided to react with a long face and say


    nothing about it. Despite knowing how difficult he could be to deal with, he didn’t seem to know what he


    should do next, which resulted in an awkward silence without any further interaction between both after


    that.

    “Thanks for the ride, Mr. Reinhart.” Sabrina stepped out of the car and expressed her gratitude to


    Timothy.


    Timothy nodded and drove away, but instead of going home, he went straight to Dynasty Gardens. In


    the yard that was brightened up with warm yellow lights, Timothy sat beside Nichs and drank with


    him, enjoying the cooling breeze that filled the atmosphere with pleasant vibes.


    “So, what brings you here?’ Nichs made a gesture by raising his ss, probingly gazing at Timothy.


    “Is there something you want me to help you with?”


    Staring at Nichs’ eyes, Timothy somehow felt as if his brother-inw could read his mind. Thus, he


    faked a cough and tried to cover his actual feelings. “Nah, I just wanted to drink with you. That’s all.”


    “Oh, really?” Nichs responded with an ambiguous smile.


    An uneasy Timothy took a sip of wine from his ss to brace himself before gazing at Nichs with


    some confidence. “Tell me, Nichs. How did you make up your mind and decide that my sister was


    the woman of your life back then?”


    “What do you mean by that?” Nichs squinted, seemingly pondering to figure out an answer to


    Timothy’s question.


    Timothy chuckled softly in response. “I might not have known you well at that time, but I had definitely


    heard a lot about you. The rumors said you were a cold and heartless man whose world was all about


    work and nothing else. So, I’m curious how you came to that decision.”


    “There is really nothing to be curious about. I just followed my heart.” Nichs sipped his wine and


    added, “I wasted no time hesitating and went straight for it once I knew she was the one.” He recounted


    his feelings at that time while Timothy listened in an engrossed manner. Then, when Nichs noticed


    the preupied look on Timothy’s face, he asked, “Let me guess-you’re faced with some rtionship


    issues, right?”


    Seeing the yful smile on Nichs’ face, Timothy refused to admit his feelings. Therefore, he looked


    away guiltily while trying to y it cool. “No, of course not. I was just asking.”


    Fortunately for Timothy, Nichs decided not to press on with his mischief upon noticing the former’s


    reaction. While the two men continued to drink quietly, Timothy, who seemed to be bothered, indulged


    in so much alcohol that he eventually got drunk. Thus, Nichs summoned the maids and had them


    take Timothy to his room, whereupon he returned to his bedroom.


    On the other hand, Tessa hadn’t gone to bed yet, so she could smell Nichs’ strong alcoholic breath


    when he entered. “You seem to have drunk a lot. Where is Tim? Is he all right?”


    “He is drunk, but I told the maids to take him to his room,” Nichs replied and went to the bathroom.


    A few momentster, when the two of them were lying in bed together, Tessa rested in Nichs’ arms


    and asked, “What’s wrong with Tim? It didn’t seem usual for him toe drinking with you all of a


    sudden.”


    “Haha. Rtionship issues.” Nichs chuckled and went on to tell Tessa what had happened earlier


    that night. Toward the end of his story, he even ventured a guess about Timothy’s situation. “I think


    something is going on between him and that assistant.”


    After hearing her husband’s story, Tessa appeared to be helpless. “My brother may be a capable man,


    but when ites to love and romance, he is always too slow to catch on.”


    She sighed, appearing concerned for Timothy. Deep down, she felt the urge to do something for her


    brother, whose love life she couldn’t help but feel worried about.


    At the thought of that, she suddenly thought of an idea and said, “I remember Tim’s birthday is just


    around the corner. So, why don’t we organize a birthday celebration for him and give him the right


    nudge to do it by then? After that, it should help. take his mind off what is bothering him now. Don’t you


    think so?”


    “That sounds like a good idea. Nichs agreed with Tessa.


    The next day, Tessa became serious about nning for Timothy’s birthday, but for some reason, her


    n was discovered by Kieran, who approached herter that afternoon to volunteer to help. “Tessa, I


    know you’re helping Tim woo his crush, so let me help you. I’m a pretty good strategist, after all.”
