Nevertheless, she didn’t show any sign of pain.
Instead, she quickly collected herself and smiled. “Old Mr. Jadeson, why don’t you have a seat while I make you some exotic tea?”
Boiling with anger, Jonathan glanced at her before simmering down and taking a seat on the sofa.
Sasha was delighted by his response. Releasing her hand, she instructed the housemaid to bring over the exotic tea and brewing equipment. Throughout the exchange, she didn’t show any signs of discomfort at all.
Sebastian clenched his now empty fist.
A few minutes later, the housemaid returned with what Sasha had requested. With that, Sasha began brewing the tea in front of Jonathan.
“I’m surprised you know how to do this.”
“Mmm-hmm, just a little. My family used to own a tea plantation. Old Mr. Jadeson, have you heard about black tea before?”
Sasha began chatting with Jonathan while waiting for the water to boil.
It had been a long time since she brewed tea. The last time she did it was when Frederick was still alive. She had made some for him at the nursing home. But now, it just felt like a distant memory.
When the tea was ready, Sasha’s arm trembled while she was serving it. The excruciating pain she felt caused cold sweat to break out.
Sebastian squinted his eyes at the sight.
Intrigued, Jonathan suddenly asked, “Black tea is considered quality stuff. Since you’re familiar with it, do you know the Tea Infusion Technique?”
“The Tea Infusion Technique?”
Sasha looked up with her eyes shining in excitement. “Old Mr. Jadeson, I’m surprised you even knew about it. It’s a technique that is practiced in my hometown. Would you like to try some tea brewed that way?”
“Most certainly!”
With his anger now subsided, Jonathan looked at Sasha with intense interest.
With that, Sasha began to brew the tea using the special technique mentioned.
Meanwhile, Sebastian watched on with a darkened expression.
He was cognizant of the pain she was in despite her efforts to hide it. Therefore, he had no choice but to suppress his anger and not disrupt the tea session.
What’s wrong with her? Why is she even brewing tea for that old man?
His gloomy gaze cast a dark cloud over the entire living hall.
Nevertheless, Sasha and Jonathan paid no heed to him. Once Sasha had served Jonathan the tea, he raised his teacup to take a sip. The next moment, his face lit up.
“It’s good. This is exactly how it’s supposed to taste like.”
“I see.”
Upon his reaction, Sasha’s anxiety eased at once.
All she could do now was assuage his anger. Or else, it would be of no benefit to Sebastian if Jonathan were to lose his temper
“Old Mr. Jadeson, whenever you feel like having some, you are most welcome to come by. After all, I am now Mr. Hayes’ doctor and will be here every day.”
“All right.”
Jonathan readily agreed. However, he still reminded her, “But, please remember that Grayson didn’t send you here to make tea for me.”
In other words, Sebastian still took priority.
Given how smart Sasha was, she obviously got the hint and nodded immediately. “Of course. Old Mr. Jadeson, please don’t worry. I will do my best to cure Mr. Hayes’ condition. However, please have some patience as the recovery does take time,” Sasha daringly suggested.
Just as she spoke, Jonathan’s stern gaze swept in her direction.
“I have only placed him here to recuperate. Since when have I ever applied any pressure on him?”
“Huh?”
Sasha was caught by surprise.
If he didn’t pressure Sebastian, why were they even arguing to the extent of being at each other’s throats?
Sasha was lost for words.
“All you need to do is to treat him,” Jonathan added as he glanced at Sebastian.
Sebastian cracked his knuckles as the rage within him swelled again.
Gulping, Sasha quickly poured Jonathan another cup of tea. “Sure. I’ll definitely cure him. Don’t you worry. By the time he recovers, he will be of great use to you given how exceptional he is.”
The last sentence was crucial.
Jonathan didn’t respond. Instead, he raised the teacup in front of him.
Sasha’s words had precisely describe his intention.
Although Sebastian had been a thorn in his side and attempted to slaughter the entire Jadeson family, Jonathan couldn’t help but be impressed by how well thought out his plan was.
In fact, it even sent a chill down his spine.
He had not expected a member of the Jadesons to be so extraordinary. In comparison, Sebastian had exceeded the capabilities of his dad, Shin.
If someone like him can truly become a member of the Jadesons, the potential for our family will be limitless. With that, I will die without regrets.
In the end, Jonathan didn’t pick a bone with Sebastian anymore.
“In that case, when will his arms and legs recover?”
“They will heal in no time. Tomorrow, I’ll try letting him walk and use both his arms. If all goes well, he will make significant improvements within a week,” Sasha replied quickly.
