Chapter 529
Timothy was stunned al first, but he then understood what she had implied. "Nicholas is so
overbearing."
Although he grumbled, he still agreed to Tessa's suggestion in the end.
As it was her farewell meal, Henry joined them as well.
"Time sure flies. It doesn't feel like much time has passed, and Tess is going to leave again. My parents
said that I should invite you to our house again when you're available," Henry exclaimed at the table.
"Let’s do that when I come back again next time." Tessa agreed as she had a good impression of the
Tompkins Family. "Please say hi to your parents on my behalf when you get home tonight."
Henry nodded agreeably.
Timothy gave her a piece of fish and said, "After you go back, you have to lake care of yourself when
I'm not by your side. You have to tell me if anyone bullies you."
"Don't worry. I'm never an easy target, so I won't allow anyone to bully me." She felt warm inside as she
ate the fish that her brother gave her.
However, Timothy did not think the same, especially when he remembered the existence of Kathleen in
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe orchestra.
"Tess, please come back if you aren't happy in the orchestra. I can take good care of you now." He
looked at her with an earnest expression.
Tessa understood what he implied, which moved her. "Sure, if I can't stay in the orchestra, I'll come
back, and you’ll be responsible for me from then on."
Although Gregory did not fully understand what they were talking about, it did not stop him from
expressing his thoughts. "Me too. 1 can take care of Miss Tessa too. I can give all my pocket money to
her."
After lunch, Tessa decided to take Gregory back as Timothy had work in the afternoon.
However, as soon as the group left the restaurant, Timothy's phone rang.
"Is this Timothy?"
"Yes, I am. Who is on the line?"
"I'm calling from the General Hospital. Your grandmother is ill, and she is receiving treatment in the
hospital. We need her family members here, so I hope that you can come over as soon as possible."
Unfortunately, the nurse on the other end of the line ended the call immediately after that.
Timothy furrowed his brows tightly in annoyance due to the call.
Tessa asked curiously when she saw his gloomy face, "Did something happen?"
Gregory and Henry looked at him in concern too.
Timothy immediately explained the situation after seeing their concerned looks, "Amber is ill, and the
hospital couldn't get in touch with anyone else, so they called me and asked me to go over."
Although he resented the Reinharts, he could not just ignore the situation. "Tess, take Greg home first.
1'11 head over to the hospital."
Tessa was stunned by the turn of events, but she suddenly realized that Timothy was talking about
their so-called grandmother.
"Will you be fine going there alone?" She looked at her brother worriedly; she could still remember
clearly how overbearing and intractable the Reinharts were as they had left a profound impression on
her, and none of it was good.
He comforted her as he knew that Tessa was worried
about him, "Don't worry. Just leave it to me. Don't forget that I’m not the same as how I used to be in
the past, and the Reinhart Family is not the old Reinhart Family anymore."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, Tessa was still worried. So, she insisted on tagging along, worried that that old lady might
bully Timothy.
He had no choice but to give in to her persevere request.
Both of them soon arrived at the hospital. Under the nurse's lead, they finally saw Amber in a ward.
Amber was genuinely ill. Her face was as pale as paper, and she had lost a lot of weight.
The nurse advised them. "Don't leave such an old person at home alone next time. It was fortunate that
the neighbors found out about her condition in time and sent her to the hospital."
Timothy and Tessa wore complicated expressions upon seeing Amber.
The nurse, who seemed to notice the strange air, switched the topic. "One of you needs to come with
me to complete the hospital admission procedure and settle the hospital bills."
"I'll go." Timothy volunteered. "Tess, wait for me here with Greg."
Tessa nodded and led Gregory to a chair to take a seat.
Gregory looked curiously at the old lady on the bed, then raised his head to look at Tessa, who was
wearing a solemn look.
"Miss Tessa, don't you worry. Your granny will be fine." He thought that Tessa was worried about
Amber, so he caressed her forehead like how she used to comfort him.
