Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas)

Chapter 517

Al that moment, Edward stared at the two men with an expression that signaled they were

basically dead meat.

The two men's faces instantly turned, and suddenly, there was a noticeable look of fear in their

eyes.

They were totally unaware that the woman and kid from this afternoon had such a prominent

background.

Suddenly, the two were quite frightened and quickly confessed, "Were not involved in all this! We

don't know what’s going on. We re just doing all these under our boss's instructions!"

As soon as Nicholas heard that, naturally, his expression turned ugly, and he seemed to exude a

deadly aura that became noticeable as it started affecting the people around him.

Edward could sense the oppressiveness in the air, and he couldn’t help shivering too.

At that moment, Nicholas' cold voice rang in his ears, "Find out exactly who this boss they just

mentioned."

Edward nodded in response to Nicholas' instructions, and the former shot a sharp glare at the

two.

"You've heard him. Hurry up and be frank. Reveal who's your boss; otherwise, you'll have to bear

the consequences."

As Edward spoke, he signaled for the two men to take a look at the strapping bodyguards

around them.

The two men had already been quite shocked to hear about the Sawyer Group, coupled with

Edward's threats. They were frightened out of their wits, so they immediately spilled the beans.

"Our boss is the gang leader active around the old township, and his name is Philip Grayson."

As soon as Edward heard that, he couldn’t help furrowing his brows as he turned to glance at Nicholas.

Meanwhile, Nicholas was also frowning, and his expression was much colder than before.

He shot an austere look at the two cowering men on the ground and spoke in a cold tone, "Continue

the interrogation."

Edward nodded and turned to continue questioning them, "In regards to Philip Grayson, tell me

everything you know about this man."

The two men no longer dared to conceal anything and spilled the beans on everything. They revealed

everything that they knew about that man.

"Philip Grayson operates a bar at the old township, and it’s the meeting point for his lackeys. He's got

plenty of men working for him. That's all that we know. We’re at the bottom of the ladder after all."

Edward realized that the two seemed to be telling the truth, so he got up and went to Nicholas' side to

ask him, "President Sawyer, how do you want to deal with these two here?"

"Send them to the police station."

After Nicholas said that, he turned on his back and left the scene.

As soon as Edward saw that, he immediately gestured for the bodyguards to escort the two to the

police station.

The two men were terrified upon hearing that they would be sent to the police station, so they hastily

pleaded for mercy, "Sir, we've learned from our mistake! Please forgive us! We'll never make the same

mistake again!"

Edward frowned at the commotion they were making and signaled for the bodyguards to gag them.

Then, finally, he turned and left to go after Nicholas.

When he walked out, he saw that Nicholas had a murderous look in his eyes while he was basked

under the moonlight, and the aura surrounding him was ominous.

Edward knew that his boss was furious.

With that in mind, he gingerly took a step forward and asked respectfully, "President Sawyer, where are

we headed next?"

Nicholas glanced at him coldly, then he opened the door and entered the car after saying, "Let's go to

the old township to meet Philip Grayson."

That night, in Moonlight Bar at the old township, the scene inside was quite rowdy and wild. Everyone

seemed to be lost in the lifestyle of debauchery.

Inside the luxurious private room, Philip Grayson had two women in his arms, and he resembled a

nouveau riche as he drank with his fellow disreputable companions.

Everyone was busy fawning over Philip.

The entire room reeked of rot and corruption amidst the women's peals of laughter and the

men's loud jeers.

The vibe was quite great when all of a sudden, Edward kicked open the door to the private room,

which caused it to collide at the back of the wall loudly.

"Who's there?"

The crowd stared in shock at Edward.

However, Edward disregarded them, and the ten bodyguards streamed into the room one after

the other after walking past him. Finally, they stood upright in two lines facing each other.

At that moment, everyone was shocked by the situation.

Just then, everyone heard the sound of footsteps gradually increasing in volume as they moved

closer to the private room, and each step caused the masses to feel increasingly terrified and

bewildered.

Edward disregarded the stupefied crowd, and retreated to the side with a respectful expression.

Nicholas—dressed in a black suit, strode purposefully into the room, and his perfectly-sculpted

features were expressionless and as cold as ice.

lie walked into the private room devoid of expression; everyone significantly felt the oppressive

aura he exuded.

"Where is Philip Grayson?"

He scanned the surroundings as his glacial voice rang out like a shot in the private room.

As soon as the people in the room heard that, they slowly regained their composure, and each of

them naturally turned to look at Philip, who was seated in the center of the room.
