Chapter 416 You’ll See
“You’ll see whether I can do it or not.” Hayley stared at Tessa sullenly with venomous eyes.
Tessa shuddered involuntarily. Inwardly, she was somewhat scared, but she put on a brave front by
standing up and looking down at Hayley. She replied with a sneer, “Miss Stone, it seems that you’re
mistaken about one thing. You’re neither Nicholas’ elder nor a person of consequence to him. The matter
between Nicholas and me is none of your business. Do you think you can get Nicholas to be with you by
threatening me? On the contrary, you’ve only made me feel that you’re a bad loser. So much for the
upbringing of a socialite from a respectable family, huh?” With that, she turned around and left right
away.
Watching Tessa’s figure disappear from the private room, Hayley got so furious that she overturned the
table right away. “I’ll never let you off, you b*tch!” Her angry voice sounded from inside the private room,
accompanied by the sound of glass shattering.
Tessa paused in her tracks for a moment before continuing to leave without looking back. After returning
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtto the orchestra, she changed into the spare clothes she had kept there and went back to the practice
room. However, it was obvious that she wasn’t in a good mood, so much so that she kept making
mistakes while playing the violin during the afternoon training session.
Hathaway stopped Tessa’s performance with a frown. “What’s wrong with you, Tessa? You’re so not
yourself today. Are you feeling unwell?”
Since it was something personal, Tessa didn’t want to talk about it. Therefore, she nodded and admitted,
“Yeah, I’m feeling a little out of sorts.”
“In that case, I’ll give you half a day off. Go home and rest.” Hathaway didn’t think much about it. Instead,
she asked with concern, “Do you need me to send you to the hospital?”
“No, I don’t have to take a day off. I’m not feeling that unwell.” Tessa didn’t want to go back right now.
She knew very well that if she were to go home in her present mood, Nicholas would easily notice that
something was wrong. “I’m fine, Miss Hathaway. Let’s continue.” With that, she took a deep breath,
pulled herself together, and continued her practice.
Unable to dissuade her, Hathaway had no choice but to agree to it.
Meanwhile, Nicholas took Gregory back to the villa; he had made preparations for Remus to be sent
back to the country.
Upon seeing Nicholas, Remus let out a snort and pretended not to see him. It could be said that his trip
to Vienna was in vain, but he could do nothing about it. Not only was Nicholas determined not to marry
Hayley, but he even threatened to rejoin the army.
Noticing that Remus seemed to be angry with Nicholas, Gregory got close to him and acted cute like a
spoiled child in every way possible. “Don’t be angry, Great-Grandpa. Uncle Kieran said that being angry
will cause wrinkles to form on your face. You have enough wrinkles already, Great-Grandpa. If you get
even more wrinkles, you’ll look even less handsome.”
Seeing how the little boy appeased him with a straight face, Remus didn’t know whether to laugh or to
frown. Nevertheless, a smile appeared on his face.
Nicholas threw his son a commending look.
A while later, Nicholas sent Remus to the airport.
Before boarding the plane, Remus looked at his most outstanding grandson beside him. He said
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmgloomily, “The Stones have proposed that your engagement to their daughter be called off. Since you’re
determined not to marry her, let’s forget about it. I don’t want to force you into it.”
Upon hearing his words, Nicholas replied icily, “Even if you force me into marrying her, I’m not gonna be
willing to do so.”
Speechless, Remus shot Nicholas an angry glare, but he said nothing in the end. He asked with a soft
snort, “Now that I’m not forcing you anymore, when are you gonna go back?”
Nicholas didn’t give him a specific time, though. “We’ll see.”
Remus was vexed at his response. Looking daggers at him, he warned, “If you don’t want to come back,
I’m not gonna force you to do so. But don’t you dare rejoin the army!”
Nicholas didn’t really take Remus’ words to heart. “I got it. It’s almost time for the flight to take off.
Andrew, please take good care of Grandpa along the way,” he said to Andrew. “Remember to give me a
call after the flight touches down.”
“Please rest assured, Master Nicholas,” Andrew replied with a nod.
Nicholas watched Remus disappear into the crowd before turning around to leave the airport. After
getting into the car, he massaged the space between his eyebrows wearily. Remus seemed to have
given in at the moment, but he had predicted this long ago.
