Chapter 764 Seeing Tessa
Hathaway was so exasperated with Kathleen’s answer that she thought she would have a heart attack. She even believed that her daughter’s behavior was becoming increasingly unconscionable.
Meanwhile, on the road to the hospital, Nicholas held Tessa in his arms while asking repeatedly, “Did you really slip by yourself?”
Tessa reiterated as she looked at the doubtful man, “I did slip by myself, but it was because of Kathleen.”
With that, she recounted the incident briefly, causing Nicholas to turn grimmer by the second. “Thank goodness you’re okay, or I won’t spare that woman if something really happens to you.”
Nicholas was frothing at the mouth, especially when he remembered that Kathleen had repeatedly bullied Tessa. “Does Kathleen think I can’t do anything about her because she has her mother shielding her? Well, I won’t be merciful anymore if she dares lay a finger on you again!”
The man’s rage touched Tessa.
“Kathleen has indeed gone too far.” She nodded in agreement, then comforted his raging mind by saying, “We won’t forgive her anymore if she dares to make another move, and you shouldn’t get angry either. It’s not worth getting all upset over people like her.”
Nicholas looked down at the young woman in his arms and thought she was right.
He shouldn’t be mad over people like Kathleen. However, if that woman still dared to mess with Tessa, he would not let her get away with it again.
As he thought about it, he tucked away his hostility and asked worriedly, “Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere else?”
“No, not at the moment. Just my elbow.” While speaking, Tessa raised her arm, but the pain got her grimacing.
Nicholas urged Edward to drive faster upon seeing this, to which the latter obliged with a nod.
They soon arrived at the hospital, and Nicholas carried Tessa out of the car.
If anything, Tessa wanted to walk on her own, but Nicholas objected to it no matter what.
In the end, she could only yield and let him carry her everywhere.
After a series of checkups, the doctor concluded that she was fine and the baby wasn’t affected. “She just got bruised on the elbow, and it’ll be gone after a couple of days. She’s all good. You can relax.”
After getting the good news, Nicholas took Tessa home.
