Chapter 459 Heartaches
“That’s all right. I bought them for you!” Ethen tousled his hair.
“My grandma says we shouldn’t take things from others. I have to return them to you!” Tim was
adamant.
Ethen adjusted his sses and held Tim’s hand to bring him toward the coffee table.
“Even if you were to return them to me, I can’t possibly fit in them!” Ethen carried him and sat on the
couch before unpacking the food.
“Mr. Frank, you can return them to the shop, no?”
Ethen was starting to notice how stubborn Tim could be, so he exined, “I’m afraid they won’t allow
that.”
Hearing that, Tim lowered his head and bit his lips before making a tough decision. “Okay, then. How
much do they cost? I’ll pay you!”
Ethen was rendered speechless. Why is this kid so stubborn?
“Just treat them as a gift from me, okay?” Ethen asked.
Tim nced at him and shook his head in response. “I can’t ept rewards that I haven’t worked for!”
“Well, I like you because I find you cute! Why can’t I give you a gift?” Ethen tried to convince Tim.
Refusing to give in, Tim shook his head. “No! I can’t ept gifts for no reason.”
Hearing that, Ethen sighed inwardly and uttered, “Have your lunch first, will you?”
“How much do these clothes cost, Mr. Frank? I’ll pay you back!” Tim insisted.
Ethen was left feeling helpless. Those clothes aren’t cheap! In fact, they’re branded! If I tell him the
prices, I’ll only burden him.
Right then, an idea popped up in Ethen’s mind, and he told him a white lie instead.
“One hundred!”
Tim frowned when he heard that. Although he felt that the price was high, he whipped out some cash to
pay Ethen.
There was no way Ethen would take his money, though. “Keep it! You can buy me a meal instead!”
Tim nced at the food Ethen had bought for him and nodded. He has a point.
“Okay, then. I’ll buy you dinner and treat you to a meal tomorrow. Mr. Frank, will you still be here
tomorrow?”
“Yes. Since your daddy has instructed me to take care of you, I won’t leave till he’s here again!” Ethen
ruffled his hair and added, “Dig in!”
Tim lowered his gaze and uttered softly, “You don’t have to take care of me, Mr. Frank. I’ll be fine on my
own!”
“Well, it’s not like I have anything else to do! Besides, it’s my job to take care of you. If you don’t like
having me around, your daddy will cut my sry!” Ethen put on a show to gain sympathy.
“He’ll cut your sry?” Tim then continued apologetically, “Then you better stay here. However, you
don’t have to be at the hospital at all times, Mr. Frank! No one’s going to find out if you were to go out
for a walk!”
Tim’s thoughtfulness had caught Ethen by surprise. “Don’t worry about me. Dig in, okay? The food is
getting cold.”

“Will you join me, Mr. Frank?” Tim gulped when he saw the delicious dishes before his eyes.
Ethen picked up a fork and gave it to Tim before picking one up for himself.
He then took a piece of steak and fed it to Tim.
Tim only opened his mouth and took a bite after he nced at Ethen.
Ethen was heartbroken, and he nearly cried when he saw how cautious and grateful Tim was. Has he
not eaten meat before?
“Is it good?” Ethen asked while gazing at Tim.
Tim nodded and swallowed the food. “This is the best meat I’ve ever eaten.”
Ethen got even more emotional before putting a few more pieces of the steak on his te. “Then you
should have some more of it!”
Tim stared at Ethen gratefully and uttered, “Thank you, Mr. Frank!”
“You’re wee! Eat up!” Ethen smiled. However, he saw Tim putting the meat aside.
Curious, Ethen queried, “Are you not going to eat?”
“I’m saving them for Grandma!” Tim then removed the meat from his te.
Ethen was touched. What a thoughtful kid! He’d even think about his grandma when he eats!
Indeed, kids would mature younger when they’d gone through hardships in life.
Ethen put the meat back onto Tim’s te and said, “Eat first, okay? It won’t be as nice once it gets
cold. When your grandma wakes up, I’ll go and buy some more.”
