Chapter 256

“Nicholas, I always thought that even the rich and influential are reasonable people, but I now realize that

I was wrong and being too hopeful.”

Tears started to swim in Tessa’s eyes and she didn’t know whether it was because of her anger or

aggrievement, but she glared at Nicholas without blinking.

Seeing her this way, Nicholas felt inexplicably heartbroken. “I—”.

“President Sawyer, my brother and I merely want to have a quiet life and the feud in your family has

nothing to do with us, really. So, I’m begging you. Please don’t come over anymore, President Sawyer.

We can’t afford to be hurt. Really, there’s no need for us to be in contact anymore.”

“Tess?” Timothy was a little shocked by the things she had just said. Even though he was aware that she

was angry, he thought that she would only complain a little and he didn’t expect that she would say

something so decisively.

However, judging from the look on her face, he knew that she had to be feeling bad inside. Every time

she wanted to break things off, she would be soft-hearted whenever Gregory appeared and it was

unbearable for her to say that they should never be in contact again.

She had said something like this for the sake of them both as a family, but he felt that it was difficult on

her…

On the other hand, Nicholas wasn’t surprised at Tessa’s words. While on the way here, it had already

occurred to him that Tessa would choose to avoid it if she found out about this matter and would even

make a clean break with him and Gregory.

However, Nicholas had also thought of a counter-move for himself because he didn’t want her to be

away from him and Gregory. In addition, just the thought that Tessa would be dating other men in the

future made him very uncomfortable.

Springing up to his feet, he gazed down at her from his height. “I have a way to resolve this issue. In the

future, the Sawyers won’t be making things difficult for you and Timothy anymore. Don’t worry about

this.”

Thank you so much for your generosity, but please leave. Our humble abode isn’t capable of hosting a

man as noble as you,” Tessa reminded as she pointed at the direction of the door.

Despite that, Nicholas stood motionless and didn’t take it to heart that she was asking him to leave. “I

told you that I’ll take care of this matter, but I hope that you’ll calm down and think about it. I didn’t do any

of those things, so you shouldn’t be mad at me and say such heartless things, too.”

At the mention of this, the things Tessa had said earlier flashed through her mind. Indeed, it was a little

heartless, and on second thought, it was true that Nicholas didn’t do anything and was never involved at

all.

However, his only mistake was not immediately telling her who the mastermind was when he found out.

Still, even after finding out the truth, he didn’t stand with his grandfather and even went against him to

help her and bore all that burden by himself.

In comparison, all she did was complain about him and tried to avoid him at this time.

Seeing that she wasn’t so mad anymore, Nicholas pulled her onto a seat on the couch while his voice

turned gentle as well. “I did consider not to look for you to avoid you from getting hurt, but I can’t do it.”

Without a word, she lifted her gaze and probingly met his eyes. Then, he continued, “For the past few

days, I had no other motive when I kept bringing Greg over to look for you. It was all because he misses

you, and as his father, I can’t bear to watch him suffer like this. Do you understand me?”

“What happened to Greg?” Tessa asked shakily,

“Ever since you left, Greg had locked himself up in the music room all day. He won’t say anything and will

only eat very little. It’s true that I arranged to run into you at the orchestra the other day, and I purposely

bought a ticket opposite from your seat so that Greg could see you. After going home that day, his

condition slightly improved and he would eat something. The next day, he was upset again and wanted

to go to the hospital with you, saying that you’d be afraid to go alone. He even promised me that he won’t

force you to come back to teach him, so I brought him to see you. After that, it was the same every time

we bump into each other. I keep finding excuses to let him meet you so that I can get him to eat

something and catch some sleep, but if you feel that we’re affecting your lives…”
