Chapter 1131 No Need for Apologies
Nicholas merely gave voice to the truth nestled in the minds of both the grandfather and
grandchild. There was even a touch of sarcasm in his tone.
Wanda and Horace looked sullen as if they were children caught in a lie. Standing at the
side, Kieran was relieved.
He matched his brother’s mockery with a twinkle in his eye. “Speaking of which, I must
thank Miss Muller for her preferential treatment. Even though she ordered my kidnapping,
she made sure to remind the thugs she hired not to hurt me. Thank you so much.”
His voice dripped with sarcasm.
Wanda’s eyes flushed red with embarrassment.
An ashamed Horace stuttered, “Wanda, h-hurry up and apologize to Master Kieran!”
As reluctant as she was to admit to any wrongdoing, she had no choice but to obey. “I’m
sorry, Master Kieran.”
Kieran accepted her apology graciously.
After all, this was what Wanda owed him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, he wasn’t about to let Wanda get off so easily. So, he quipped, “It’s too bad that
my poor sister-in-law and unborn nephew can’t be here today. They have suffered so much
more compared to me.”
Horace interjected, “You’re right, Master Kieran. I’ll bring this worthless granddaughter of
mine to apologize to them personally tomorrow.”
He wasn’t a simpleton. In his heart, he was aware that Kieran was fighting for justice on
Tessa’s behalf, so he simply took the initiative to make amends.
Horace also believed that the Sawyers wouldn’t let him, the family elder, be the one to
apologize to Tessa.
So, he was right in this regard. Nicholas wouldn’t have accepted his apology.
Yet, the reason for his refusal wasn’t what Horace had thought.
He merely didn’t want unrelated people to affect Tessa’s fragile emotional state.
Besides, even if Wanda apologized, she most probably wasn’t sincere, which was why
Nicholas saw no reason to waste Tessa’s time any further.
“There’s no need for apologies. As I knew you and my grandfather were close, I called you
here to tell you what we’ve discovered. There’s no need to apologize. What’s done is
done. Besides…” Nicholas paused for the dramatic effect before he delivered a cutting
remark. “It’s a bit too late to start disciplining your granddaughter now. It doesn’t matter.
I’ll overlook her crimes this time. However, should this happen again, I won’t mind helping
you deal with her personally.”
He stared coldly at Wanda with a dark and heavy expression.
She trembled before his intimidating gaze while Horace looked dour.
He couldn’t remember the last time he had been humiliated so terribly.
The atmosphere in the restaurant was suffocating and stagnant.
Clearly, nobody was in the mood to eat.
Noticing all this, Remus sighed before he announced, “Well, that’s all for today. Ian, please
arrange a car to send Mr. Muller and the others home.”
“Right away, sir.”
Ian left to make the necessary arrangements.
Horace was too ashamed to linger any further. Dragging Wanda behind him, they both left

After they left, the restaurant lapsed into an uneasy silence.
Everyone seemed depressed. It was like death had just occurred.
Suddenly, a clattering sound was heard. Stefania had only just fully processed what had
happened before she angrily cried, “Wanda always seemed like a nice, courteous girl. I
never would’ve expected her to be capable of such vicious things. This is too much!”
Her excellent upbringing prevented her from uttering a harsher rebuke.
Even so, she was very angry with Wanda.
Remus remained silent all this while.
Tobias and his sons were equally quiet on this matter.
After a long rant, Stefania finally exhausted herself. She gulped down the glass of water on
the table to quench her thirst.
Nicholas turned to the sullen old man and drawled, “Grandpa, I wonder what you think
about today’s events.”
“What are you trying to say?” Remus stared harshly at Nicholas.
He knew all too well that his grandson always had an ulterior motive in mind when he
talked.
