Chapter 80 A Favor
“I see.” Tessa nodded, then added, “No matter what, you’d better get well first. Let’s talk about the rest later.”
Timothy nodded docilely. “Okay. Thank you, Tessa.”
Tessa smiled happily but felt a little worried in her heart, so she added, “But Timothy, you should not go home these days. Go and live on campus for a while, where it is safer.”
Timothy understood she was worried about the Reinhart Family going to their house to look for trouble, so he naturally nodded in agreement. Then, he couldn’t help but ask, “Then where would you live?”
Startled, Tessa realized she had forgotten to consider where she would stay at night. It seemed to be a difficult problem. However, she thought that things would naturally fall into place, and so she gently smiled while reassuring her brother. “Don’t worry, I will find a place to stay.”
Although Timothy was not at ease, there was no other way, so he nodded. On the side, Henry was a little confused, so he asked, “Tessa, are you worried about that family looking for you again? But haven’t they all been arrested already?”
Tessa smiled bitterly. “What’s the use of being arrested? They will be released sooner or later. It’s just a matter of time. The danger from the Reinhart Family still exists, and considering what they are like, they will never let us go now that they were harmed by us.”
Hearing this, Henry could not help but fall silent, sighing quietly inside. Timothy and Tessa are really unlucky to have such a horrible father!
Of course, Henry did not dare to say this aloud. After all, it was akin to rubbing salt on their wounds, so he simply just kept it in his heart.
Then, Tessa thought of something and asked gently, “Henry, may I ask you for a favor?”
“Yeah. Tell me.” Henry nodded.
Smiling, Tessa then said, “Actually, it is not a big deal. I just want to ask you to help take care of Timothy because he is physically weak. Now that he is injured, I feel uneasy letting him stay on campus. So, I hope you can help him with things. As for today’s incident, I’m really sorry to involve you in it and cause you to be injured.”
When Henry heard this, he smiled brightly. “Tessa, you are too polite. I am Timothy’s good friend, and I have thick skin, so they did not hurt me at all.”
Tessa smiled even wider as she praised, “You are courageous and righteous. Timothy is lucky to meet a good friend like you. Anyway, thanks a lot.”
Faced with the compliments, Henry felt a little embarrassed and blushed without saying another word. Soon, they arrived at the campus. Before the two got out of the car, Tessa continued to remind her brother, saying, “Timothy, if anything happens on campus, remember to call me. Take good care of yourself.”
Timothy nodded obediently, then smiled. “Don’t worry, Tessa. I will take care of myself. You take care of yourself too.”
Satisfied with the answer, she said no more. After that, she watched the two enter the gates before leaving and heading to Dynasty Gardens.
“Miss Pretty Lady is back!”
When Tessa entered the door, Gregory did not expect her to come back so soon and was surprised. His unhappy little face lit up, and he immediately rushed over with his short legs before he hugged Tessa’s leg.
Likewise, she also smiled warmly. Squatting down, she lovingly rubbed the little boy’s head and asked, “When I was not at home, what did you do?”
Gregory sprang up and said, “I was with Grandma!”
At that, Tessa was stunned, and when she looked up, she saw Stefania. Stefania was now sitting on the sofa quietly, her expression somewhat serious and her gaze complicated when she looked at Tessa.
When Gregory had food poisoning, she blamed Tessa at the first instance, causing the atmosphere to become very awkward. Unexpectedly, in the end, she had wronged someone innocent.
