Chapter 1082 I Won’t Lose

Tessa turned to give Nicholas a puzzled look. Timothy had noticed this a while ago, and he

could guess the reason for the empty island, but he turned to look at his brother-in-law

anyway.

Nicholas gave Tessa a gentle pinch on her nose when he saw the confusion in her eyes.

“This part of the beach is a private beach that belongs to our villa. Outsiders aren’t

allowed here,” he said with a laugh.

Tessa’s initial surprise was followed by a surge of happiness. This means that I can play on

the beach with my children in the future, and we won’t have to worry about outsiders

bothering us! Gregory didn’t understand what a private beach was, but he was just as

happy when he saw the waves crashing onto the shore.

“Mommy, I want to play in the water!” Gregory held his head up to give his mother a

puppy-eyed look. His delicate and flawless facial features made him seem especially

adorable, and Tessa couldn’t bear to reject the young boy when he looked like that.

Furthermore, Tessa was also tempted to play in the ocean when she saw the amazing view

in front of her. So, she turned to look at Nicholas without saying anything.

Nicholas gave in at the sight of his son and wife staring at him, but he was still concerned

about their safety. “You guys can play close to the shore. Don’t go too deep into the

waters,” he reminded them.

The earlier part of his sentence was directed to Tessa, while the latter part was specifically

toward Gregory. Once Gregory received his parents’ approval, he quickly urged Tessa to

make a move. “Let’s go, Mommy. I’ll pick some seashells for you,” he said.

“Okay!” Tessa had a loving look in her eyes as she allowed the small boy to drag her

toward the ocean. As Nicholas and Timothy watched the mother and son from the back,

they both thought about how nice and peaceful life felt at that moment. Soon enough,

they could hear Gregory and Tessa’s laughter from a distance away.

The sound of the waves and the hot weather made the ocean seem especially tempting to

Timothy. After a short while, he decided to challenge Nicholas. “Why don’t we have a little

swimming competition, Nicholas?” Since Timothy had put up the offer, Nicholas saw no

reason to reject him.

Soon enough, two eye-catching, well-built figures walked down the beach toward the

ocean. Even though Timothy was busy with work, he was very particular about his

physique. He had pale skin, but his body was firm and sculpted. Nicholas, on the other

hand, had a slightly tanner skin tone from his years in the army. He had eight-pack abs

while Timothy had a six-pack—both of them together made a gorgeous sight.

When Gregory saw his father and uncle walking into the ocean in their swimming trunks,

he called out to them in an innocent voice. “Do you guys want to play in the water too?”

“Yeah. We’re going to have a little competition. Between your father and me, who do you

think is going to win?” Timothy asked with a cheeky grin on his face.

Gregory didn’t hesitate before responding. “My daddy, of course! Daddy’s the best!”

“What about me?” Timothy felt rather dejected, so he turned to look at Tessa. “Tessa, you

tell me—who do you think will win?” Tessa could immediately tell what was going on in

Timothy’s mind, but she blinked a few times before responding. “You know me, Timothy.

I’m really bad at telling lies.” In other words, she was implying that she supported Nicholas

as well. Her words felt like a stab to Timothy’s heart.

“Well, since you guys are looking down on me, I guess I’ll have to make sure that I defeat

Nicholas!” Timothy could feel his competitiveness arising as he shot Nicholas a

challenging look. Nicholas simply ignored the other man—he turned to give Tessa a gentle

smile instead. “I’ll win,” he stated. Just these two words were enough to make Timothy

furious.

“Do you have to be so confident, Nicholas? You’re going to embarrass yourself if you lose

in front of Tessa,” Timothy uttered.

“I won’t lose,” Nicholas replied firmly. What he said was true—Timothy lost the swimming

competition in the end. Gregory jogged over after they were done. “I told you, Uncle Tim!

Daddy’s the best.”

Timothy felt even worse after hearing the boy’s words. Tessa couldn’t bear to see the look

on her brother’s face, so she went over to comfort him. “It’s no surprise that you’ve lost.

Nicholas used to be in the army, you know.” Timothy felt a little better after that, but he

still wasn’t happy about losing. So, he challenged Nicholas to another two rounds of

swimming.
