Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas)

Chapter 453

Chapter 453 Investigation on the Herbs (2)

Edward understood his president’s wishes. He then ended the call and went to the hospital. Per Nicholas’ instructions, he transferred Remus into a VIP ward and informed the hospital of his president’s instructions.
The arrangement soon reached the ears of Tobias and Stefania.
Later that night, Nicholas went back to the main house for dinner.
During dinner, Tobias questioned the matter. “This evening, you asked Edward to transfer the old man into a VIP ward and banned the Stone Family from visiting. Is there something going on here?”
As Tobias posed his question, Stefania had also turned her attention to Nicholas.
Nicholas replied in an indifferent tone, “Nothing is going on. I just think that Grandpa needs to be in a quiet environment to recuperate.”
He did not intend to divulge what the Stone Family had done before having clear evidence on hand.

Since both Tobias and Stefania were unaware of Stone Family’s actions, they had no reason to doubt Nicholas’ explanation.
Stefania then continued feeding Gregory. “Greg, you’ll have to eat more,” she said while placing food in Gregory’s bowl.

Gregory thanked her in a cute and soft manner. He then followed Stefania’s example in placing food in her bowl as well and said softly, “Grandma should eat more as well.”
Stefania was over the moon and immediately ate the food Gregory gave her while showing off to Tobias.
Tobias was slightly provoked by his wife’s bragging, which prompted him to stare intently at Gregory.
Naturally, Gregory understood what his grandpa wanted, to which he complied by placing some food in his grandpa’s bowl. “You too, Grandpa.”
As a result, a faint smile crept onto Tobias’ serious face.
Laughter continued to spread from the grandparents and grandchild.
Kieran was watching them enjoying themselves before turning his attention to his quiet brother. He felt that Nicholas was hiding something in regard to Remus’ incident.
After finishing dinner, Tobias and Stefania brought Gregory to the garden for a walk.
Nicholas, on the other hand, went to the study room on the second floor to handle company documents.
However, Kieran came in soon after Nicholas took his seat.
“Nicholas, tell me the truth. Did you ban the Stone Family from visiting Grandpa because they did something?” With both his palms on the table, Kieran stared at his brother with curiosity in his eyes.
Nicholas looked up from the file he was reading and, with no intention of hiding the truth, answered in an indifferent tone, “Grandpa’s sudden heart failure was not from a natural cause, but was triggered by something he shouldn’t have eaten.”
“And this ‘something’ was a gift from the Stone Family.” As though a lightbulb went off in his head, Kieran instantly connected the dots as he recalled his brother’s arrangement at the hospital. Subsequently, he looked at Nicholas in shock.
Nicholas did not deny his brother’s deduction. “I’ve asked Edward to investigate it this afternoon. It seems that some time ago, Hayley and her mother had gone to a herbal store and had specifically asked for two herbs that are not meant to be taken together. Furthermore, the staff that made the sale that day had quit a few days later and vanished without a trace.”
