Chapter 370 The Stones’ Plan
She quickly went to take her violin. A while later, the car was filled with the soothing tune of her violin. It
was sometimes slow, sometimes happy, and sometimes melancholic, though it sounded great overall.
Nicholas felt calm for some reason as he listened to her play. It was like her music had magic.
Once she was done playing, she looked at him with anticipation. “So, how was it?”
“Great.”
“Are you feeling better yet?”
Nicholas looked into her eyes, and he felt warm. He knew she was trying to cheer him up, so he smiled.
“A lot better.”
Tessa looked at him closely and noticed that the anger on his face was gone. It was replaced by a smile
instead. She started talking about how the orchestra celebrated her birthday earlier in the day.

Nicholas listened quietly and would pipe up at times. He didn’t stop smiling the whole time he was talking
to her. Even after they hung up, he was still smiling.
Edward looked at him in the rear-view mirror, and he sighed. Wow, Miss Reinhart sure is awesome. I’ve
never seen someone dousing Mr. Sawyer’s anger before.
After Hayley went home, she sat on the couch and processed her shock, but it was proving to be hard.
The Stone couple was surprised to see their daughter looking so petrified when they came downstairs.
“Hayley, I thought you’re going to have dinner with Remus tonight. Why are you back so soon?” Sonia
sat across from her.
Nero followed and sat beside his wife. He shrewdly noticed the troubled look on his daughter’s face, and
he asked, “What happened? You don’t look too good.”
Hayley bit her lip and told them what she heard at the Sawyer Residence. “Dad, Mom, I just found out
that Gregory is Nicholas and Tessa’s son.”
“What?” The Stone couple was shocked.
Hayley continued, “Nicholas doesn’t want to marry me because of Gregory’s mother.”
The Stone couple’s faces fell. Their family lost a lot of money in an overseas project lately, and they
needed a lot of funds to cover that. They had used a part of the funds of a branch company in the nation,
but it was just a stopgap measure. They still had a huge hole to patch, so they desperately needed this
marriage of convenience to help them. However, Nicholas’ adamant refusal was not helping them, and
now they knew they couldn’t wait anymore.
Sonia gritted her teeth. “This engagement cannot be canceled. If he doesn’t want to get engaged, then
we’ll force him to.”
“But how?” He could even go against his own grandfather. I don’t think we can force him to do this.
Sonia squinted, her eyes glinting with cunning. “Remus himself asks you to be Nicholas’ wife. If I tell
everyone about the engagement, Nicholas must attend it even if he doesn’t want to, or their family would
be embarrassed.”

“Not bad. Sure, your reputation might be hurt, but we’re the victims here. That won’t harm us.” Nero
nodded.
Hayley was tempted to agree, but she hesitated. She didn’t think Nicholas would give in so easily, and
she shook her head. “That’s one plan, but Nicholas has told his grandfather that he won’t attend the
engagement even if he goes on with it.”
“Ah, that’s just his anger talking. You don’t have to take it seriously.”
The Stone couple didn’t think he was serious, and they sneered. “Besides, Remus isn’t really young
anymore. Nicholas has to consider his health. If Remus gets sick because of his actions, the whole
family will go against him.”
Hayley still thought it wouldn’t be that easy.
