Chapter 876 I Am Still My Sister’s Brother
He walked to Tessa and pulled her into his arms. “I’m here.”
She nodded lightly and hugged Nicholas back.
Looking at the two people embracing each other, Timothy and Gregory stood quietly by the side.
At this moment, Timothy could understand his sister’s excitement when she saw his brother-in-law.
To his relief, his sister’s complexion was obviously much better than before.
When he saw that the two were not planning to let each other go after some time, he began to feel a little jealous.
He pretended to feel sorry for himself and said jokingly, “It’s over now. Now that my sister has a husband, she doesn’t care about her younger brother anymore. I’ve been standing here for so long, yet she didn’t even spare me a glance.”
Hearing this, Gregory couldn’t help but snicker.
“Don’t be sad, Uncle Timothy. Mommy and Daddy haven’t seen each other for a long time. You have to understand them, and I’m still here with you.”
He patted Timothy’s arm lightly, comforting him in a soft voice.
At this time, Nicholas’ slightly annoyed voice sounded. “Timothy, you are an independent adult. Don’t be like a child and pester your sister at every turn.”
“Nicholas, what you said is wrong. Even if I am an independent adult, I am still my sister’s brother,” Timothy retorted unhappily.
Seeing the two competing for her favor like children, Tessa felt amused in her heart.
They continued on like this as they chatted, laughed, and returned home.
Since they could rarely reunite, Tessa planned on cooking by herself.
However, Nicholas was worried that she’d be tired, so he asked the chef to assist Tessa and forbade the woman from touching the knives.
Not long after, Tessa prepared a table of dishes and called Nicholas and the others to the table.
The atmosphere in the room was very warm, and Nicholas served Tessa attentively. “You should eat more.”
He put several pieces of meat into her warm bowl.
Tessa gave him a sweet smile and urged, “You should eat quickly too; don’t keep looking after me.”
Nicholas nodded with a smile.
Meanwhile, Timothy took a piece of his favorite meat and narrowed his eyes in enjoyment while chewing on it. After a while, he couldn’t help but sigh. “As expected, the dishes made by my sister are the most delicious.”
“Of course. Mommy’s food is the best.”
Gregory nodded in agreement.
As she watched them eat happily, Tessa felt a sense of accomplishment and liked the feeling of being with her family.
After their meal, Timothy looked on as Tessa and Nicholas cuddled together. He felt that if he stayed, he would be blinded by their romance.
“Let’s go, Greg. I will take you out to play.”
With that, he took Gregory and left in a flash. Only Nicholas and Tessa were left alone in the living room.
Looking at the direction in which her brother disappeared, Tessa laughed a little.
Of course, she knew that her brother was leaving with Gregory on purpose so that she and Nicholas could be alone.
Nicholas also saw through Timothy’s intention, and there was a trace of satisfaction in his eyes.
He’s a good kid, and I made the right choice by pampering him.
He retracted his gaze and turned his head to look at his wife beside him. He smiled, and his eyes were filled with warmth immediately.
“It’s just the two of us now.”
For some reason, Tessa couldn’t help but blush when she heard his words.
Although she was a little shy, she still winked playfully. “We are the only ones left, so what do you want to do?”
Looking at his wife’s charming cheeks, Nicholas swallowed.
“I want to do this…”
While speaking, he stretched his hand out and pulled her into his arms. Then, he gripped her slender waist gently and lowered his head slowly.
Meanwhile, Tessa raised her head and gradually closed her eyes as the two kissed affectionately.
It was a long time before Nicholas let go of Tessa with much determination.
Tessa’s face was attractive as she leaned against Nicholas weakly, and it took a while for the two to calm down.
