Bride Behind The Mask Novel by (Frederick and Mr. Winston) - Season 4 Episode 39

As Frederick conversed with the doctor, Sadie quickly made a bowl of oatmeal in the kitchen and brought it into the

room.

“Mr. Winston, we should try to get the young master to eat something,” she suggested.

Frederick took the bowl and sat beside Hayes‘ bed, spooning a mouthful up to the young boy’s lips. “Open up, be a

good boy!” he encouraged.

Hayes shifted stubbornly away, clutching at his stomach.

“Hayes! Don’t make me angry!” Frederick’s raised voice caused a chill to run down everyone’s spine. Chuck also

flinched, having never seen Mr. Winston lose his temper with young Hayes before. He must have been pushed to

the edge today.

Firstly, he was upset that Hayes was sick yet still risked his health. Secondly, he was worried as a father. But Mr.

Winston, always busy with work, rarely took care of his son personally. How could he understand the way to deal

with a child?

In such a situation, he must step back, not push forward!

At this moment, Chuck and Sadie exchanged a look, but neither dared to step in.

After all, Mr. Winston was in a fury. Whoever dared to intervene would be asking for trouble.

Seeing this, Sadie pinched Chuck, who could only sigh silently. It seemed he would have to be the one to step in!

Before he could even do anything, Sadie, unable to hold back, pushed him forward.

He stumbled, almost falling onto Hayes‘ bed.

At that moment, Frederick’s eyes were locked onto him in a murderous glare. Chuck hesitated and then decided to

persuade Hayes.

“Master Hayes, look how worried Mr. Winston is about you! Please, have something to eat! We promise to do

whatever you ask if you take just one bite, okay?”

Hayes finally turned back around, his sweat–drenched hair glistening. With great effort, he muttered two words,

“Kindergarten…… Teresa……”

This was the second time Hayes had spoken after a long silence, and Frederick was both shocked and overjoyed.

But, the content of his speech was still related to Teresa.

Chuck quickly looked at Frederick, urging, “Mr. Winston, Hayes is talking! Isn’t this what you wanted? Please give

him some response!”

Seeing his son willing to endure pain just to be with Teresa at kindergarten truly moved Frederick. Perhaps, this girl

truly cared about Hayes, for how else could she have won

over his heart so quickly?

In the end, Frederick backed down. He put down the bowl and spoon and agreed, “Alright, I promise you can go to

kindergarten.”

Hayes, writhing in pain, looked up at Frederick’s intense gaze when he heard his father’s promise. “And Teresa?”

“You can invite her over to our house, but only when I’m present.” This was the biggest concession he was willing to

make. After all, Teresa was Marguerite’s child, and he had to be cautious.

“Can we eat now?” Frederick picked up the spoon again and brought it to Hayes‘ mouth. Hayes obediently took a

bite, then stretched out his thin arm, his voice whimpering, “Hug, me.”

Seeing this, Sadie quickly took the bowl and spoon from Mr. Winston’s hands.

Then, Frederick bent down to gently scoop up Hayes into his arms, reassuring him, “Hayes, you can’t starve

yourself to harm your body, understand?”

In his father’s arms, Hayes obediently nodded. But what Frederick didn’t know was that Hayes had managed to

pluck a hair from his head unnoticed, and he didn’t feel a thing.
