Chapter 500
Only after his business succeeded did Henry buy this house for his parents so that
they could live in a better place.
"Morn, Dad, this is Tessa." After the Reinhart siblings and Gregory went into the
house, they sat in the living room where Henry introduced them to his parents. "This
is the child of Tessa's boyfriend. His nickname is Greg."
Henry's parents greeted them affectionately.
"Miss Reinhart, Greg."
Tessa also greeted them respectfully, "Mr. Tompkins, Mrs. Tompkins."
Gregory immediately followed her example and politely greeted them, "Hello, Mr. and
Mrs.
Tompkins."
"Hello," they replied while smiling with their eyes, obviously in a good mood.
Mr. and Mrs. Tompkins weren't old and only seemed to be in their forties. However,
maybe it was because they had really devoted themselves to work for nearly half of
their lives that they looked older than their age. However, they were still healthy.

After everyone got to know each other, the atmosphere in the living room became harmonious where
Tessa and Gregory were treated very well by their generous hospitality.
"Miss Reinhart, Greg, have these fruits. These are all brought by my husband this morning." Mrs.
Tompkins handed the fruits to Tessa and Gregory and they took the fruits while thanking her.
Henry stood by the side, smiled at the scene, and teased his mother, "Mom, you’re letting them eat so
many snacks now. How are they going to have dinner later?"
As soon as she heard that, Mrs. Tompkins patted her forehead and blamed herself. "Oh, look at me;
I've forgotten were going to have dinner later!"
"It’s okay. We can just have the fruits after
dinner."
When she noticed Tessa looking at her so gently, Mrs. Tompkins started to adore this kind girl.
After some time, Mr. Tompkins finished preparing dinner before he laid the big table with plenty of
dishes.
Once he was done setting the table, he invited the Reinhart siblings and Gregory to start eating. "This
is just a home-cooked meal. I hope it suits your tastes."
"Oh, it's been such a long time since I last had some home-cooked food. I'll definitely love it!" In fact,
Tessa really liked the atmosphere the Tompkins Family had because she felt that this was how a true
home should be.
Meanwhile, Henry's parents treated her amicably and kept asking her to eat more.
At first, they just felt thankful to Tessa for what happened before, but now that they got to know her,
they genuinely liked this kind girl.
Everyone was enjoying themselves throughout the dinner, especially Gregory, who stole Henry's
parents' hearts with his cuteness, politeness, and sweet persuasion within seconds.
Toward the end of the dinner, they even wanted to give him all the snacks and candies in the house,
but they finally gave him some pocket money.
As Henry observed the scene, he leaned against Timothy's shoulder and whispered, "Oh no, look at my
parents. They will pressure me to get married after this, for sure."
Meanwhile, Nicholas went straight to the hospital after he finished work.
Remus was in a stable condition and felt much better after the treatment. However, he started to think
about many things after he made a full recovery.
And the one thing that he was most worried about was Nicholas' marriage.
At the thought of Nicholas rejecting the granddaughter-in-law that he favored for a
gold-digger, Remus' blood started to boil since he just didn't understand what was so
great about Tessa. She was from an ordinary family, and her character was
substandard too.

he felt that everything about Nicholas had irritated him to no end.
When Nicholas entered, he didn't know what was going on with Remus. So, he
ignored his grandfather s darkened face and asked, "Grandpa, how are you feeling
today?"
"Not dead yet," Remus replied with a cold grunt.
Nicholas disregarded his bad temper and raised his eyebrow when he heard the reply.
He nodded and agreed with Remus by saying, "I thought so too. It’ll be difficult to die
with Ashton by your side."
"Nicholas Sawyer!" A furious Remus stared at Nicholas with the feeling that Nicholas
was just
here to infuriate him.
When Nicholas noticed that Old Master Sawyer was actually upset, he was surprised
and said solemnly, "I know you haven't given up on the thought of letting me marry
Hayley, but that is just impossible."
"Why not? You rejected her even before you got to know her. Do you think it's fair for
her?" Old Master Sawyer took Hayley's side as he wasn't willing to give up meddling
in Nicholas' marriage.
As Nicholas stared directly at him, his tone became grave. "Relationships are never
fair. Plus, do you really know what kind of person Hayley is, Grandpa?"
