    Upon hearing those words, Tessa stepped to the side and said, “Why don’t youe inside first? Greg has fallen asleep.”


    Nichs nodded. “Thanks.”


    With her consent, he walked into her bedroom and saw Gregory sleeping soundly. Thus, he was in no hurry to bring Gregory home.


    He walked out of the bedroom and lowered his voice. “Do you have anything to eat? I’ve not eaten anything since lunch, so I’m


    having some gastric issues.”


    She frowned slightly when she heard those words. This man is torturing his stomach again.


    During her stay at his home previously, she often saw Andrew preparing some gastric medicine for him. Andrew mentioned that he


    rarely ate his meals on time, so he had ruined his stomach. He sure doesn’t take care of himself when he’s busy.


    Fortunately, she had some gastric medicine at home. Quickly taking out the medicine box, she found the gastric medicine and


    poured him a ss of water. At the same time, she couldn’t stop herself from asking, “Regardless of how important work is, is it


    more important than your health?”


    He didn’t look disgruntled despite being criticized. However, his gastric issues caused his lips to turn pale and his expression to


    be unsightly. He leaned back against the sofa after taking the medicine and closed his eyes to rest.


    Looking at him in this state, she couldn’t help havingplicated feelings. It was way past dinner timer. Besides, greasy meals did


    not suit those with gastric issues. It was better if he had something light and nd instead.


    “Are you okay with noodles?” she asked softly.


    “Yeah, thanks.” He nodded.


    She went straight to the kitchen and cooked a simple bowl of noodles for him.


    When Gregory went to sleep, Timothy returned to his room and prepared to work. Although it had been fun to y with Gregory for


    a few hours, it did not change the fact that he still had work to do. He was writing the codes for a brand-new software when he


    heard some noisesing from the outside all of a sudden. It sounded like they had guests, so he came out to investigate.


    He was surprised to see Nichs lying on the sofa. “President Sawyer? Why are you here?”


    Nichs opened his eyes and massaged his temples, looking like he was feeling unwell. Only then did he answer the question. “I


    came to pick Greg up. Thank you for helping to take care of my child today.”


    Timothy waved his hand dismissively. “It’s nothing. Young Master Gregory is very well-behaved. He doesn’t make a fuss, so we like


    him very much. It’s not a big deal even if he stays here overnight. You didn’t need toe all this way to pick him up. But, why


    were you sote?”


    Nichs replied, “Something came up in thepany. I had just finished dealing with it.”


    Judging from Nichs’ tired face-seemingly in poor health-and the sounds in the kitchen, Timothy guessed that his sister was


    probably making something for Nichs to eat at the moment. So, he said, “In that case, you don’t need to go back after you finish


    eating. Why don’t you rest here for the night instead? Going back and forth is very tiring after all. Besides, Young Master Gregory is


    already asleep. There’s no need to wake him up.”


    At this time, Tessa walked over with the noodles. “Eat something first.”


    She noticed that Nichs was massaging his knee, whereupon a scene from the past shed through her mind. She vaguely


    recalled seeming something simr back at the hospital. At the time, Nichs exined that he had injured his leg before. As a


    result, his leg would hurt if he was overly busy or if it was a rainy day.


    Andrew would often arrange acupuncture appointments for him in the past, but it was likely that the appointments had been put on


    hold recently because he was far too busy. His condition must have red up again today,


    She added, “Just stay here tonight. You probably have not received acupuncture in a long time. I will perform acupuncture for you


    after you eat. You should also take a medicinal bath while you’re at it.”


    “Okay,” he replied lightly.


    When Timothy looked at the natural interaction between these two people, he couldn’t help feeling that something was strange.


    How does Tess know that Nichs needed acupuncture? Not to mention how naturally she offered to help him perform


    acupuncture! Didn’t she clearly state that she would distance herself from the father-and-son pair and slowly remove herself from


    their lives? But, it looks like that is not the case.

    Before he could ask any of those questions, she interrupted the barrage of questions in his heart. “Tim, can you get me the


    medicinal herbs and needles, please?”


    After being interrupted, he couldn’t bring himself to ask anything anymore despite all the questions in his heart. Hence, he nodded


    and obediently returned to the bedroom to bring the items she had asked for.
