Chapter 547 He barked sternly as an ominous aura surrounded his figure and was spread across the office. Edward
could sense the rage from his boss’s figure, making his teeth chatter with fear. He glared at the staff
members who failed to complete their duties and felt the urge to scold them as well. Did they forget how
scary the president can be when he’s mad? Things must have been too peaceful at the company for a
while.
The other staff members who had chased after Hayley looked like they were about to piss their pants.
Hayley didn’t look as brave as before either. When she exchanged gazes with Nicholas’s sharp and cold
glare, goosebumps began to form all over her body. She felt as if some demonic entity was glaring at her.
However, her fear was soon replaced by her anger. T
She straightened her figure and clenched her fists as she looked directly into Nicholas’s eyes. “I didn’t
want to barge in, but I had no choice since you refused to see me,” she announced haughtily. Nicholas’s
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtface darkened upon hearing her words. Although she was terrified at that moment, she gritted her teeth
and forced herself to stare back at him. Since things had ended up like this, she decided she would give
it her all and question him directly.
With that thought, she strode forward and slammed her hands on the table while glaring at him.’ “I just
want to know-what is it you don’t like about me? Why do you have to go against me and Stone
Enterprise?!”
A sinister aura surrounded Nicholas’s figure as he directed his cold glare at Hayley. The atmosphere in
the office was extremely tense. When Edward sensed the air around them turning cold, he decided to
usher the rest of the staff members out of the room so that they wouldn’t get dragged into this matter.
But, on the other hand, he remained in the room out of a sense of responsibility. After all, he knew that
Nicholas would call him back in even if he left the room then.
Meanwhile, Nicholas had already turned his gaze away from Hayley. “What? Don’t you know the
reason?” he asked in an icy tone. Then, he stood up from his desk before giving her a side glare. “Do
you think I don’t know about all the nasty tricks you’ve been using?”
Fear surfaced in Hayley’s eyes when she heard what he said. Did Nicholas find out about something?
“After what you’ve done, I don’t think you’d be able to repent for your sins even if you died a thousand
times. I’ve never taken action against you because I value the relationship between our families. But, you
should know your limits!” he hissed in a glacial tone
Hayley felt like an invisible blow struck her after hearing what he said. She stumbled backward as terror
spread across her pretty face. I see… It seems like he has found out about what I’ve done… That
explains why he’s treating the Stone Family like that. However, the more she thought about it, the more
resentful she felt.
“Isn’t this all about one woman? Will you ruin the relationship between the Sawyers and the Stones over
one woman?” She clenched her jaw as she glared at Nicholas. She clenched her fists so tightly that her
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmknuckles had turned white.
It felt like a layer of ice was covering Nicholas’s face as he shot her a threatening glare. “A woman? Did
you forget what else you’ve done? Do you want me to tell you the reason?
Hayley couldn’t stop herself from shuddering as she felt chills slither up her spine when she heard his
words. “What else did I do?” she asked in an uneasy tone. Her teeth were chattering as she spoke.
“What? Did you forget how you poisoned my grandfather?” Nicholas’s voice was icy. Nothing could
conceal the rage in him. Her face turned pale when she heard his words. He fixed his vicious glare on
her as he spoke in a dangerous tone. “You should have considered what would happen to your family the
moment you poisoned my grandfather!”
Hayley’s lips were trembling. She felt as if a pair of invisible hands were choking her, and she couldn’t
seem to speak at all. She only managed a few words in the end. “I didn’t harm your grandfather
intentionally… I just wanted to get you back… You were—”
“That’s enough! I don’t care about your reasoning! What’s done is done!” He interrupted her words
heartlessly. “After what you have done, you should be grateful that I’ve allowed the Stone Family a
chance to survive.”
