The man grinned at Kieran, waiting to be praised. Then, Kieran patted him on the shoulder. “Not bad. I didn’t think you would be that good of an actor.”
“Tee-hee. I’m alright. It’s honestly because you gave me a good script, sir,” the man complimented while he scratched the back of his head. His words filled Kieran with pride.
Then, he looked up at Timothy’s figure and smiled. “Alright. We have done our duty. It is now up to him. Come, let’s go get a drink. It’ll be my treat.”
“Thank you, Master Kieran.” Following that, Kieran and the man walked away.
Meanwhile, inside the car, Tessa breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Timothy finally make a move. She had been so worried that he was too repressed to admit his own feelings.
When Nicholas saw her reaction, he chuckled and pinched her cheek. “You should stop worrying now, right?” “Yes. The rest is entirely up to them.” After that, Tessa looked at him with a bright smile.
After all, the issue she was hung up on was finally resolved. Later, the couple smiled at each other before ordering Edward to drive home. Consequently, Tessa thought it was time to leave the new couple alone. On the other hand, Timothy was in the dark about everything that had happened.
In his arms, he held Sabrina as they stood by the road. In addition, their black and white outfits complemented each other perfectly. Soon, they gazed into each other’s eyes as at romantic air hung around them.
Under the streetlight, drawn-out shadows highlighted the dramatic height difference between them, which oddly enhanced the picturesque quality of the scene.
Once the adrenaline rush was gone, Sabrina slowly calmed down. A moment later, she realized she was still in Timothy’s embrace, and feeling mortified, she quickly disengaged.
As his arms swung around empty space, he felt a wave of disappointment wash over him. So, he glanced at her and moved to hold her hand, his fingers intertwining with hers. However, his actions stunned her, and she lowered her head in embarrassment as her fair cheeks turned bright red. Nonetheless, she did not withdraw her hand, and her heart leaped with joy.
Yes, I did it! At that thought, Sabrina could not resist sneaking a glance at Timothy.
However, he felt her eyes on him and thought her behavior was endearing. Then, he softly cleared his throat and broke the silence. “Why didn’t you tell me you… loved me?”
If she had told him earlier, there would not have been so many misunderstandings.
Honestly, I have no clue how you feel about me. Suddenly, her face flushed red when he said that. “How can a woman confess her love first? I’ve already given you hints. Moreover, you never noticed it.” She even shot him a sullen look, and her heart was filled with woe.
“Did you?” There was a sheepish look on his face. “How come I never noticed?”
Timothy’s response filled Sabrina with both anger and laughter. Then, she coyly glared at him and softly snapped, ‘Dumb as a post.”
Looking down at her glistening eyes, something in him pushed him to dip his head down to kiss her. Suddenly, she froze in shock when their lips met. Moments later, she snapped back to her senses. Then, she encircled his neck with her arms and closed her eyes as she returned his kiss.
After several minutes of kissing, he finally let go when they both gasped for air. Despite being out of breath, they hugged each other again, and neither wanted to separate. Now that their relationship had begun, they wished to hold each other tightly.
Later, Timothy suggested they go on a walk, and Sabrina agreed. They took a leisurely stroll together, exchanging jokes and pleasant conversation.
Somehow, they ended up talking about his birthday presents. “Have you opened my present yet?” she asked. “No. Is there a secret hidden inside?” Following that, curiosity shimmered in his eyes as he looked at her.
“You’ll know once you open it,” she shyly answered. Still, she did not expect that to make him even more curious about the present. Afterward, Timothy immediately led Sabrina back to the hotel.
