Chapter 282
“Why don’t you head first? I’ll go over on my own in a while,” Stefania said.
She was attending an important party earlier and she came back when she learned that Gregory was injured. Now that she knew that Gregory was stili alive, she had to finish her affairs over there.
There was still something going on at the company, so Kieran didn’t return to the hospital with Nicholas as well.
When Nicholas returned to the hospital, the ward was still silent.
He stood at the head of the bed and first glanced at Gregory. His face looked much better and he was not as pale as before, but his face was still scrunched up, as if his wound was still hurting.
He covered Gregory with the quilt, then turned to look at Tessa.
She had no idea that someone had entered. She was lying on the head of the bed and was sleeping soundly. Her fair hand was unconsciously holding onto Gregory’s little hand.
Her soft hair slipped down and draped over her pretty but still pale face, and the sunlight outside the window shone on her body, which cast a warm halo on her.
Nicholas looked at Tessa and laughed lightly. He took Gregory’s little hand out of her hand and carried her before turning around and heading to the neighboring bed meant for caregivers.
Nicholas, the legendary president, even carefully covered her with a quilt.
This was the first scene that Gregory saw as soon as he opened his eyes and his mood suddenly improved. His little head no longer hurt, and he sensibly didn’t bother Nicholas from doing what he was doing. If Daddy and Miss Tessa were like this all the time, that would be great! he thought secretly in his heart.
Maybe it was because he was looking so intently at them that Nicholas seemed to sense something. As soon as he turned around, he met Gregory’s bright eyes and placed his hand to his lips and made a silent gesture.
The doctor was afraid that Gregory would shake his head and make himself dizzy, so he specially made Gregory wear a sleeve on his neck and head to fix him in place.
However, before the father and son could speak, Tessa opened her eyes suddenly.
She glanced around in a daze, thinking that she was in the hospital bed before looking in the direction of the hospital bed beside her.
When she saw that Gregory was awake, Tessa got out of bed quickly. She went to him, touched his hair in distress and asked softly, “Do you have a headache? Do you want to vomit? Do you feel uncomfortable?”
“It hurts…”
He hadn’t felt anything before, but when she mentioned it, he felt the back of his head. It felt like he was hit by a blunt object and the pain came in waves, repeatedly hitting him.
Gregory’s eyes that were originally bright and sparkling had become dense with unshed tears, and he blinked, feeling aggrieved.
Tessa’s heart instantly softened. She wished that the person who was injured was herself instead. She looked back at Nicholas. “Can he use the analgesic pump?”
Nicholas shook his head. “Greg is too young, so it’s not good to use it too much.”
Tessa felt even more distressed. “Greg, let’s bear it a little longer, alright? It won’t hurt in a few days.”
“Miss Tessa, I want to eat your little pastries as well as the sweet little bear biscuits you made.” Gregory blinked.
Tessa nodded quickly. “Okay, whatever you want to eat, I will cook it for you.”
At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the ward, and Timothy pushed open the door and came in. “I just heard that the young master is injured, so I’ve come to visit him. How is he?”
“He’s already awake,” Nicholas answered.
“Mr. Timothy!” Gregory was even happier when he saw Timothy.
Timothy couldn’t help being a little surprised when he saw Gregory’s head covered with gauze and his neck was still fixed in place. “Why is it so serious?”
“I’m fine. Miss Tessa promised to make me small pastries, so it doesn’t hurt anymore.” Gregory smiled.
Timothy was stunned for a moment before his expression gave way to a smile. “Then, Miss Tessa is probably your medicine. As long as she is here, then you won’t be in pain.”
“Yes, yes. How did you know?” Gregory asked happily.
Someone could finally understand him!
This was really good!
Tessa was stunned for a moment, and she felt a little embarrassed for no reason. How could this sound strange? It was fine when Gregory talked about it, but then her brother started talking nonsense as well.
