Chapter 458 I Will Get Changed
“Your brother’s savior has fallen sick, so I’ve gotten him to go over and take a look!” Benjamin told them the truth.
“What?”
The kids gasped and got worried. “Is the sickness serious?”
“It seems quite serious. You guys go over and keep Tim company, okay?” Benjamin knitted his brows after he said that. I’ve got to give that kid a new name. The name he has now doesn’t suit him at all.
“Got it! We’ll do what you’ve failed to do!” Zachary patted his own chest and promised.
At the same time, the other kids all nodded in agreement. We’ll bring our brother back!
“Be careful!” Benjamin urged before hanging up the phone. He then went to look for Shaun, who was updating his colleagues on Arissa’s condition.
“What is it?” Shaun uttered.
“Gavin and the others are going with you. Please bring them along before you head over!” Benjamin then gave some instructions to Shaun.
“Sure! I’ll look after them. You just stay here and take care of Mrs. Graham!” After Shaun was done telling his colleagues what to do, he rushed to Yaleview to fetch the kids before heading toward Northstream.
While Benjamin was keeping Arissa company at the hospital, he was still paying attention to what was going on with Tim.
Meanwhile, Ethen had gotten words from Benjamin saying that Shaun would be arriving alongside Gavin and the others.
Initially, he wanted to tell Tim about it, but he changed his mind when he saw how concerned Tim was with Mary. Maybe I should only introduce Gavin and the others to him when they arrive. There’s a possibility whereby an introduction isn’t necessary. I think he’ll know who the kids are when he sees them.
Moments later, the bodyguard returned with new clothes and food.
Ethen brought the stuff into the ward and said, “Tim, go take a shower and eat something, okay?”
Tim looked at him and answered, “I’m not hungry!”
“It’s already noon!” Ethen checked the time and urged him softly, “You still have to eat even though you’re not hungry. Otherwise, your grandma is going to feel sad when she wakes up to find you starving yourself!”
Tim bit his lips and decided not to eat anything. Just then, his stomach started to rumble, and his swarthy face reddened in embarrassment.
Luckily for him, it wasn’t as apparent because he was rather tanned.
Instead of making fun of him, Ethen coaxed, “There’s a restroom there. Go take a shower and get changed, okay? Once you’re done, you can have your lunch. I’ll stay here and look after your grandma. She’s going to be fine!”
Tim nodded. “All right. Thank you, Mr. Frank!”
“You’re welcome!” Ethen patted his head fondly and passed him a bag of new clothes. “You’ll find a set of clean clothes inside.”
Slightly embarrassed, Tim felt shy to take the bag of clothes.
Ethen then brought him to the restroom and taught him how to turn on the faucet. He placed the bag of clothes inside and left after saying, “Go ahead, okay? Don’t hesitate to call out for me if you need anything.”
“Okay!” Tim nodded.
Ethen shut the door after that.
Tim couldn’t help but feel a little reticent when he saw the state of the restroom. After all, he’d never seen such luxury in his life.
He was so reserved that he didn’t even dare to use the toiletries in there.
All he did was turn on the faucet the way Ethen taught him and took a shower without using the shampoo or shower gel provided.
When Tim was done showering, he took the clothes out of the bag, and he knew they were expensive just by touching them. These look expensive! Should I just wear my clothes from before? But they’re wet!
Ultimately, Tim sighed and put on the set of new clothes.
However, he only got out of the restroom after he was done washing the clothes he wore previously.
Ethen’s eyes brightened up when he saw Tim. It looks like it does matter what one wears!
Indeed, the elegance and sophistication Tim was born with became more apparent after he changed into those new clothes.
Tim wasn’t used to it because he’d only worn hand-me-down prior to that. In fact, he could only afford to buy new clothes once a year.
“Mr. Frank, I’ll return these and change into my own clothes once they’ve dried up!”
Ethen’s heart ached a little when he heard that.
