The Hockey Star’s Remorse

Chapter 164

TIMOTHY POV

Timothy parked his car in the sprawling lot outside the grand building that Stella and her father had chosen as the venue for the wedding. The late afternoon sun bathed the surroundings in a warm, golden light, but Timothy felt far from peaceful.

There was a sense of determination as he made his way inside. Evie’s request had weighed heavily on his mind ever since their dinner together. She had asked him to convince Stella to grant him control over her properties, a task that seemed daunting given Stella’s fiercely controlling nature.

However, it also represented a chance to help Evie’s cause, and Timothy was determined to follow through.

As he walked through the ornate entrance of the venue, he couldn’t help but marvel at the grandeur of the estate. Rows of white chairs were neatly arranged on a meticulously manicured lawn, and the scent of fresh flowers hung in the air.

As Timothy walked into the venue, he was surprised to see Mr. Fitzgerald waiting for him. The older man greeted him with a warm smile, an unexpected gesture given the tense family dynamics.

“Timothy, my boy,” Mr. Fitzgerald said, extending a hand, “it’s good to see here.

Mr. Fitzgerald’s eyes twinkled with a hint of approval. “My father mentioned that you’ve been a great support during this wedding planning process. He’s quite impressed with you.”

Timothy forced a smile. “It’s been an honor to help, sir. I just want to see everything go smoothly.”

The older man nodded in agreement. “We could use all the help we can get, especially with all the extravagant wishes my daughter’s been making.”

Timothy couldn’t agree more. “Happy to contribute. It’s my wedding too, after all”

As they made their way inside, Timothy couldn’t help but wonder about the
