Seeing the sincerity in the young man’s eyes, Figario could not bring himself to start a fight and felt he was bullying Timothy for no reason, so he remained silent.
On the other hand, Melina and Yaromir were quite satisfied with Timothy’s attitude. Yaromir gazed at his father, who remained unyielding. and couldn’t help but convince him, “Come on, Dad. It’s Timothy’s first time here. You might want to lighten up a bit and not be too stern, or you might scare him off. If he bails, Sabrina won’t be too happy with you.”
Hearing that, Sabrina came forward and hugged her father’s arm persuasively, ‘Dad, Tim is a good person, so don’t worry.”
Even Melina spoke up for Timothy at that time. Seeing his family betraying him, Figario felt frustrated. At that moment, the housekeeper came over and respectfully said, “Excuse me, Mr. and Mrs. Gulliver. Dinner is ready.”
“Okay” Figario waved his hand at the housekeeper, then took the others to the dining room.
There was no way to get through the meal without drinking wine. So, Figario raised his glass and glanced over at Timothy. “How’s your alcohol tolerance?”
“Not too shoddy, I should be able to keep up with you, Mr. Gulliver, Timothy replied, holding up his glass in a toast.
Figario raised his eyebrows and, for once, did not put Timothy down. After a few glasses of wine, the atmosphere between the three men improved considerably. At the very least, Figario’s expression toward Timothy wasn’t as stern anymore.
Soon, they started discussing business matters.
He was curious about Timothy’s entrepreneurial experience, so he asked about it. “I heard that when you started your business, you were only in your junior year in university, and the investment from Sawyer Group gave you the startup capital to establish the Reinhart Group we see today.”
“Actually, it wasn’t an investment. My friend and I developed a software back then and sold it to the Sawyer Group.” Timothy then explained the story briefly.
Figario was surprised, and as they talked more. his impression of Timothy also changed a lot. Previously, he had always thought that Timothy’s achievements were all due to the support of the Sawyer Group.
However, after the conversation, he realized his future son-in- Jaw was exceptionally talented. Unsurprisingly. Nicholas would go out of his way to accommodate Timothy and give him special treatment. Indeed, one cannot succeed at such a high level without possessing some innate talent.
Everyone was a little drunk that night, and Timothy had no choice but to stay overnight. Seeing that, Melina instructed Sabrina, “Help Timothy to his room to rest.”
When she heard that, Sabrina nodded and struggled to help him to the guest room. Once inside, she placed the drunken man on the bed and went to the bathroom to get warm water to wipe his face.
Afterward, she wanted to help him remove his clothes so he could sleep more comfortably. However, as soon as she unbuttoned his jacket, her wrist was grabbed, and everything spun around her.
All of a sudden, they switched places. Before she could react, a passionate kiss fell on her lips. She was a bit taken aback at first, but then she leaned in and wrapped her arms around his neck, kissing him back.
After a long time, they finally pulled away, and both gasped for air. Her cheeks were flushed, and her eyes were filled with lust, but unfortunately, he didn’t notice.
Timothy then rolled over and lay next to Sabrina, and soon his breathing became even. Seeing the sleeping man, she sat on the bed with amusement. Nonetheless, she still blushed as she helped him take off his clothes.
Later that night, as she emerged from the room, she unexpectedly bumped into her mother.
Melina caught a glimpse of her daughter’s flushed cheeks and couldn’t help but tease her a little. She whispered, “Looks like you’ve got a good catch there. Your taste isn’t too bad.”
After hearing her mother’s words, it was clear that Melina was satisfied with Timothy, Sabrina smiled lightly and thought of her father and brother. “What about Dad and Yaromir?”
“They are also satisfied, Melina responded with a smile. Sabrina became even happier upon hearing that.
Meanwhile, in Dynasty Gardens, Tessa anxiously awaited word from her brother. As time ticked away second by second, it was already late into the night. She couldn’t help but feel a bit worried that her brother still hadn’t returned.
