Chapter 476 None of them were suspicious upon hearing Kathleen’s words—they simply left along with Kathleen.

After everyone left, Tessa returned with a sickly look on her face. “Where’s everyone?” she wondered

when she saw the empty room.

Right then, one of the waiters from the restaurant walked over. He happened to —- overhear Tessa’s

words, so he responded to her. “Are you asking about the people who were in this room? They’ve

already paid the bill and left.”

“They left?” Tessa asked puzzledly. “When did they leave?”

“Just a while ago. I think you might be able to go after them if you leave now.” The waiter began cleaning

the room up after finishing his words. Tessa immediately headed out of the restaurant. But unfortunately,

she was a little too late, and they were nowhere to be seen by the time she ran out of the shop.

Her stomach had been uncomfortable to begin with, and she felt even worse after she jogged to chase

after them. Tessa gasped in pain as she clutched onto her stomach and squatted by the side of the road.

Cold sweat began to form on her forehead.

In the end, she had no choice but to pull her phone out to call Nicholas. “Is your gathering over?”

Nicholas’s gentle and pleasant voice sounded on the other end of the line. Tessa bit her bottom lip as

she forced her words out of her mouth. “Can you come over to pick me up, Nicholas? My stomach hurts.”

“Where are you? I’ll come right now.” His voice turned serious upon hearing her words. After she told him

her location, she squatted by the stairs and waited for him to arrive.

On the other end, Nicholas ordered Edward to get the car immediately. He kept urging Edward to drive a

little fast as they made their way to the restaurant. Then, about ten minutes later, Nicholas leaped out of

the car to find her hunched by the stairs. He felt a twinge of pain in his chest when he saw her tiny and

frail figure.

Nicholas took large strides over before lifting her into his arms. “Nicholas.” Tessa felt grateful to see

Nicholas beside her, and she rested her head against his chest as he brought her back to the car. Then,

when he saw how pale she looked, he hastily sent orders to Edward. “Drive us to the hospital

immediately!”

Edward nodded and stepped on the gas. The black car sped off on the road at the speed of light, and

Nicholas held her in his arms as he lowered his head and gently

comforted her. “We’ll reach the hospital soon. Just hold on for a while more.” She nodded lightly. Her

stomach no longer hurt as much after she inhaled the man’s fresh scent.

Soon enough, they arrived at the hospital. Nicholas got Edward to register for Tessa while he brought

Tessa over to the doctor’s office. “What is it?” The doctor’s gaze landed on Tessa the moment they

walked in. “Gastric,” Tessa replied honestly. The doctor stood up and pressed his finger on her stomach

area.

“It hurts.” Tears formed in Tessa’s eyes as she was in too much pain. When Nicholas saw this, his

expression turned sour as he shot the doctor a hostile glare. “You need to be gentler,” he hissed in a cold

tone.

The doctor smiled without acknowledging Nicholas’s words. Instead, he simply returned to his desk

before speaking to Tessa. “I smell alcohol on you. Did you drink just now?” he asked.

“I drank two glasses of whiskey,” Tessa answered honestly. The doctor nodded while writing a

prescription for her. “You may be suffering from acute gastritis. The alcohol in your system probably

stimulated your stomach. I’ll give you three days’ worth of medication to cure the inflammation, but you

shouldn’t eat anything too spicy or strong-flavored after that. You need to watch your diet and stick to the

more simple and bland foods,” he ordered.

Tessa nodded while Nicholas was standing beside them, and he quickly took note of the doctor’s advice.

After they collected the medication, Nicholas got Tessa to take her first dose of medication at the

hospital. The pills were quick and effective as her stomach no longer hurt after taking them.

While they were on the way back, he wrapped his arms around her. “Why did you drink alcohol?”

She rested all of her weight on him as she gave him a brief explanation of what happened in the

restaurant. “During then, Kathleen would have started a ruckus if I hadn’t drunk. So, I figured that I would

just drink a glass or two so that it wouldn’t disrupt everyone else’s dinner.”

“It’s Kathleen again,” he grumbled.
