Chapter 399 Concerns
Timothy sounded concerned.
Tessa answered, “Soon, but I need your help.”
“What is it?”
“Nicholas’ leg is acting up again. You still have the ingredients for your bath, right? Send some over to
him.”
Tessa went to the traditional medicine practitioner and got the prescription back when they were kids and
Timothy was crippled. Not only could soaking in the bath could heal old wounds, but it would also
improve sleep. It was great for the body. Timothy didn’t refuse her. He took a few days’ worth of herbs
and went to Dynasty Gardens right away.
Nicholas and Gregory were having breakfast when Andrew came in with news. “Sir, Young Master
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGregory. Mr. Reinhart is here.”
“Mr. Timothy is here?” Gregory said happily and jumped out of his chair.
Nicholas frowned at him. “Be careful. Don’t fall down now.”
“I know, I know.” That was what he said, but the boy still ran to the living room without a care in the world.
Nicholas shook his head helplessly and went with him. Timothy was on the couch in the living room, and
Nicholas asked, “You’re early. Did you have breakfast?”
“I did,” Timothy said, and he told Nicholas why he was here. “Tessa is worried about you, so she wanted
me to give you this. Make a bath out of the herbs, and it’ll help your leg, and you can sleep better too.”
Timothy took out the herbs he packed.
Nicholas felt warm and fuzzy hearing that it was from Tessa.
Timothy left after he sent the herbs over. Nicholas asked Andrew to leave the herbs in the living room for
him to use when he came back home at night. Andrew obliged.
…
Hayley came to Nicholas’ home in the evening. She was in a light blue long-sleeved dress, and she had
beautiful makeup on. A smile curled her bright-red lips, and she said, “Andrew, Mrs. Sawyer told me
Nicholas’ leg is acting up again. I’m worried, so I came to see him. Is he around?”
“He’s not home,” Andrew answered honestly. He knew Nicholas didn’t like Hayley, so he didn’t let her in.
Hayley could guess that as well. She stood outside the door, her smile freezing up, and displeasure
flickered in her eyes. “Since he’s not home, I’ll wait for him inside.” She went inside anyway, ignoring the
troubled look on Andrew’s face.
Andrew had no choice but to follow her, and he told someone to call Nicholas.
Hayley saw Gregory playing with his Rubix Cube alone on the couch when she came in.
Gregory noticed that they had a guest, so he looked up.
“Hi, Gregory. I’m here to see you.” Hayley looked into his eyes and put up a smile that she thought was
loving enough.

Gregory frowned. He disliked the woman before him. He knew she wanted to marry his father and take
Tessa’s place, so he pretended not to see her. His face tensed up, and he got down from the couch and
ran upstairs with the cube in hand. I will not let her get near me.
Hayley didn’t expect Gregory to shun her so easily, and her smile froze.
Andrew saw it, but he pretended that he didn’t.
Hayley managed to calm herself down a moment later and found an excuse to leave her embarrassment
behind. “Gregory probably isn’t used to me yet.”
“Yes. He doesn’t really warm up to strangers,” Andrew agreed, making things even more awkward.
Hayley looked awkward. She took a deep breath and forced herself not to dwell on it. Just when she was
about to ask when Nicholas would come home, she noticed the herbs Timothy sent Nicholas earlier
sitting in the corner.
