Chapter 402 Resigning as President

“Ha!” Nicholas let out a sneer. “In that case, I’ll resign from my position as president of the company. It’s

not like I cared much about this job, anyway. That way, Grandpa won’t have to get pissed off anymore,

and I can do whatever I want to do without having to burden myself with my family,” he said. With that, he

turned around and left right away.

That very night, Nicholas went abroad right away with Gregory.

Tobias was stunned when he learned of the news. He didn’t expect Nicholas to be so resolute and

determined.

Naturally, this couldn’t be kept from Remus either. “How unacceptable! This is simply outrageous! Who

gave him the permission to leave?!” he barked with a fierce glower while sitting on his sickbed in the

hospital ward; he was so furious that his chest ached dully.

Fearing that he might fall ill with rage, Tobias and Stefania repeatedly tried to appease him. Tobias said,

“Take care of yourself, Dad. We’ll lecture Nicholas for that.”

Stefania chimed in, “Tobias’s right; you have to take care of yourself. The doctor said you can’t get angry

at the moment.”

To everyone’s surprise, Remus ignored them altogether and instead shifted his furious gaze to Kieran,

who had been standing aside and trying to be invisible all this while. He ordered, “Go bring your brother

back—now!”

Kieran didn’t expect that Remus would target him despite his best efforts to minimize his presence. He

blinked his eyes and threw his hands up, saying innocently, “Grandpa, it’s not that I don’t want to look for

him. I don’t even know where he is.”

Exasperated, Remus said to Tobias between clenched teeth, “Send people to look for him. Bring him

back no matter what!”

Tobias nodded with a solemn expression.

Seeing Remus’ response, Kieran breathed a sigh of relief. Well, it’s fine as long as I don’t have to look for

Nicholas myself, he thought. In fact, he had a rough idea of what Nicholas was thinking. Indeed, Remus

had pushed Nicholas a little too far this time. Nicholas only left because he had no other choice, so

Kieran wanted to grab a chance for him. And besides, he knew where Nicholas would go.

Remus was still furious over the next few days. After all, he truly didn’t expect Nicholas to actually quit

his job as he had said.

On the other hand, Hayley and the Stones were stupefied. Never did they expect Nicholas to be so blunt;

he’d rather resign as president of his family’s company than marry Hayley. “This Nicholas guy has gone

too far! He’s humiliating our Hayley!” Sonia swore in exasperation.

Nero and Maxwell looked as black as thunder, too.

Her eyes lowered, Hayley sat on the sofa as her hands clenched into fists on her lap with so much

strength that her knuckles turned white. I’ve never been humiliated like this before in my whole life! she

thought.

…

Meanwhile, Tessa was completely unaware of what was happening in the country. Her daily life in Vienna

was basically spent between the orchestra and her apartment.

Today, she returned to her apartment with her violin on her back as usual. To her surprise, however, as

soon as she reached the entrance of her neighborhood, she saw someone she didn’t expect.

Gregory’s joyful voice rang. “Miss Tessa!” Shaking off Nicholas’ hand, he merrily ran toward Tessa as fast

as his little legs could carry him before flinging his arms around her legs. “Miss Tessa, I’m here to see

you. Are you surprised?”

Upon hearing this, Tessa finally recovered from surprise. She bent down and picked Gregory up before

walking toward the extraordinarily handsome man nearby with a bright smile.

Nicholas watched with unconcealed tenderness in his eyes as the lady leisurely walked toward him.

“Welcome home,” he said.

Tessa was stunned for a moment. She didn’t understand why, but these simple words made her feel at

home. In the end, unable to figure out the reason, she gave up thinking about it. Her eyes crinkled in a

smile as she nodded, saying, “Yeah, I’m back.”

Nicholas curled his lips into a faint smile. Then, he took Tessa’s violin from her and held her hand, taking

her home.

After they returned to the apartment, Tessa poured Nicholas and Gregory a glass of water each and sat

down on the sofa with them. “How long are you two gonna stay this time?” she asked.

Nicholas said with a mischievous smile, “What if I say we’re gonna stay here permanently?”

“Daddy, are we really gonna stay here for a long time?”
