Chapter 1094 Greg Has a Fever
However, before she left, she approached Timothy and said, “Don’t work over hours. You should head home for dinner.”
After returning home, Tessa thought of how it was a lot of hard work for her brother now that he was establishing a company branch as there were a lot of things to be busy with. Besides, Nicholas was also very tired during this time, and he also required more nutrition. At that moment, she called Sebastian over and said, “Try to make as much nutritious food as possible for dinner tonight.”
“Okay, I’ll go to the kitchen and let them know.” Sebastian nodded and prepared to leave.
Tessa thought for a while, then stopped him again. “Have the kitchen prepare supper too.”
The two men were both workaholics, so it was hard to be sure that they wouldn’t work overtime at night.
Sebastian nodded. After he left, Tessa was left alone in the living room. Looking at the empty surroundings, Tessa suddenly realized that she was idle and really had nothing to do. In the end, she simply went to the piano room and prepared to practice the piano. An hour later, Gregory came out of the study after his lessons. He heard music coming from the piano room and walked over with his head drooping.
In the piano room, Tessa heard footsteps, so she looked up and saw the little boy walking over listlessly.
“What’s wrong, Greg? You don’t look well.”
She quickly put down the violin and walked over with concern. Gregory hugged Tessa’s thigh, his voice weak as he said, “Mummy, I’m feeling hot, and my head is a little dizzy.”
Hearing this, Tessa immediately noticed something was wrong. She reached out and touched the little boy’s forehead at once and found that it was a little hot. At that, her face changed instantly. Greg was having a fever!
She didn’t care how heavy he was and hurriedly picked him up. Then, she rushed outside, saying, “Sebastian, call the family doctor quickly! Greg has a fever!”
Downstairs, Sebastian, who was assigning work to the servants, was shocked, so he immediately called the doctor. After hanging up the phone, he was worried and called Nicholas. “Master Nicholas, Young Master is sick. Do you want to come back?”
“What happened to Greg?” Nicholas’ voice was filled with worry.
Sebastian didn’t dare to hide the truth and immediately told him about Gregory’s situation. “He has a fever, and Miss Tessa is now taking care of him in the room.”
“I see. I’ll be back now. Send two servants to help Tessa now.”
Upstairs, Tessa had brought Gregory into the room. Originally, she planned to put the little boy on the bed first, and then bring a basin of warm water to help cool Gregory down physically. However, before she could let go of Gregory, he held her back and said, “Mommy, don’t go. Stay with me.”
The little boy looked at Tessa pitifully. Coupled with his uncomfortable appearance at the moment, Tessa felt distressed.
“Okay, I won’t leave. I will stay here to accompany you.”
Tessa immediately sat down by the bed, but she was still very anxious. She couldn’t leave the room, and she didn’t know when the doctor would come. She wanted to help Gregory cool down so he wouldn’t be too uncomfortable. Fortunately, the housekeeper brought the servants over to help and informed Tessa that Nicholas would be back in a while. Hearing that Nicholas was coming back, Tessa, who was somewhat flustered, instantly calmed down. However, it didn’t take long for her to worry again because the boy became even more ill.
Fortunately, at this time, Nicholas had arrived. Seeing the tall man in the room, Tessa seemed to have found her support and immediately explained the situation to him. “Greg only had a moderate fever before. I thought about cooling him down physically while waiting for the doctor to come and help him. However, he took a turn for the worse. Now, his fever is running high.”
After Nicholas heard this, he furrowed his brows. He turned his head and asked Sebastian, “How long until the doctor arrives?”
Sebastian was about to answer when a servant hurried over. “Master Nicholas, the doctor is here.”
In Gregory’s room, the doctor examined the little boy as Tessa stood beside the bed worriedly. Seeing her anxious face, Nicholas reached out to hold her hand, then said comfortingly, “Don’t worry, Greg will be fine.”
Even though he said that, Tessa was still very worried.
