Chapter 474: 474: This Man’s Untraceable Tenderness
In the restaurant on the first floor, Tobias Clark swung his short little legs, anxiously asking Scott Harris, “Uncle Harris, why hasn’t my woman come down yet? I want to go upstairs to check on her.”
Scott Harris always patiently advised him, “Young Master, Baron Lawrence ordered that no one is allowed upstairs. Please wait a bit longer; Ms. Clark should be coming down soon. Baron even sent honey water upstairs just now.”
“But I didn’t see my woman come down.” Tobias Clark voiced his dissatisfaction childishly, “And what’s with that cup of honey water? Why did the Dubious Man have to wait for the boiling water to cool before pouring the honey in? We waited for forty minutes! He could have hurried up and finished pouring so we could call her down for dinner!”
“Honey’s cell structure can decompose easily, and using hot water would destroy its nutritional structure. Drinking it like that would be pointless.”
Tobias Clark was only five years old and, no matter how smart, he still couldn’t understand biological structures. Scott Harris’s complex explanation could be simplified in his understanding as “honey shouldn’t be mixed with hot water.” He didn’t understand and widened his eyes, “Why not use cold water then? Cold water can mix quickly too. Wouldn’t it be the same if we quickly used cold water to mix and then gave it to her to drink?”
“Well…” Scott Harris was taken aback by the question, then said, “Perhaps it’s because Ms. Clark hasn’t had a good appetite lately. Baron is worried that drinking cold water might upset her stomach.”
Tobias Clark pouted and remained silent.
His own woman hasn’t had a good appetite since yesterday, and she didn’t seem to have much energy. He was really worried.
But that annoying Dubious Man wouldn’t let him go up to see Enna Clark, even denying access to the maids who were supposed to clean.
Tobias Clark was still worried about his woman being bullied and jumped off his stool, preparing to find an opportunity to sneak up to the second floor.
Enna Clark had already come down the stairs.
His eyes were sharp, and he spotted Enna Clark immediately as she descended. He sprinted over, shouting, “My woman.”
Enna Clark was embraced fully by Tobias, nearly knocked over in the process, but thankfully, she managed to steady herself.
Tobias Clark was already holding onto her leg and raising his head. His big, worried eyes seemed angry and brimming with concern, “Why didn’t you come down for lunch? Don’t you know how worried I was? If something had happened to you…”
His eyes were already reddening, and he fiercely threatened, “If something happened to you, tomorrow I would forget you and let that Dubious Man find me a beautiful new mommy.”
Now Baron Lawrence had already found him a beautiful new mommy… Enna Clark cursed inwardly, but she couldn’t help but feel heartache when she saw his tearful little face. She squatted down to coax him, “I’m sorry, darling. Mummy was just too tired yesterday, and I overslept today. It’s fine, don’t cry.”
Tobias Clark turned around, wiping his eyes, and stubbornly said, “Who said I cried? I didn’t cry!”
“Yes, yes, you didn’t cry. Mummy saw it wrong.” Enna pulled the little guy’s shoulders to turn him around and kissed his cheek. “There, I’ve come down now, haven’t I? I heard you wouldn’t eat, so I hurried down. I’m so hungry now, come on, let’s eat together.”
Tobias Clark still pouted, his mood much better, and he no longer looked on the verge of tears. He held onto her hand, chattering like a little adult while they walked, “Enna, you’re not eating enough. You need to eat more tonight.”
