Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 400

Chapter 400 Unwanted Visit

“What is that?”

Andrew looked at where she was looking and saw the herbs Timothy sent here earlier. He omitted some details in his answer. “It’s something Miss Reinhart left. They can relieve the master’s pain.” He knew it’d be a hassle if Hayley found out that Tessa asked her brother to send the herbs here.

Disgust welled in her eyes after she heard that and she said without hesitation, “You can’t let Nicholas use dodgy stuff like that. Throw them away. I’ve practised my acupuncture. I can help him with his condition.”

Nicholas came back just in time to hear that, and the air around him dropped three degrees. “Thank you, Miss Stone, but I don’t need it.”

Shocked, Hayley quickly turned around, and she saw Nicholas standing at the porch, the sun shining on him from behind and the air around him tense. Obviously, what she said earlier angered him. “Calm down, Nicholas. I’m just worried about you.” She tried to explain herself, but to no avail.

Nicholas looked at her coolly. “You’re not worth getting angry over. Don’t think too highly of yourself,” he answered, his voice monotonous.

Hayley suffocated, and her heart felt like it was crushed.

Nicholas continued coldly, “And you do not own this place, so don’t touch my stuff. Send her away, Andrew. Don’t let her in without my permission in the future.”

Andrew shook his head silently and asked Hayley to go with him. “Come with me, Miss Stone.”

Hayley stared at Nicholas, sadness welling up within her. In the end, she had no choice but to leave.
