Chapter 559

When Gregory heard his father rejecting him again, he could no longer hold back the tears in his

eyes.

"No crying." Nicholas didn't have the habit of comforting anyone apart from Tessa, and he didn’t

even do it to his own son. All he could do was order Gregory not to cry. However, when those

words slipped out of his mouth, Gregory cried even harder than before. "I want Miss Tessa. I

want Miss Tessa!" The young boy sobbed as he stared at Nicholas, looking especially pitiful with

his swollen and red eyes.

Both father and son glared at one another for a while before Nicholas let out a sigh and bent

down to carry Gregory over to the couch. He sat the young boy down before speaking in the

gentlest tone he could manage. "Aunt Tessa has been preparing for a really important

competition recently, and she's really busy now. We'd be making things harder for her if we

visited her now.”

Gregory was disappointed to hear this and stuck his lower lip out in a pout. However, he was

also sensible enough to stop crying. He pouted for a long while before he finally spoke with a

shaky voice. "Since Miss Tessa is studying music there, 1 want to go there to study too. I want to

work hard with Miss Tessa."

Nicholas was shocked to hear this. He would have never expected his son to utter such words.

However, he quickly made sense of it when he thought of Tessa and Gregory's tight relationship. "You'll

have to work really hard, then. Your Aunt Tessa is a really impressive woman," he said.

"I will!" Gregory gave his father an exaggerated nod. The young boy wore a serious look on his face.

Nicholas tugged his lips into a smile when he saw how serious his son looked. "If that's what you want,

then perhaps I can bring you over to meet her after she's done with this competition of hers," Nicholas

promised with a smile on his face.

Gregory's eyes lit up immediately. "I always knew you were the best, Daddy!"

The next morning, Nicholas had breakfast with Gregory before he rushed to the company. He had only

sat in his office for a while when Edward knocked on the door and walked in. "President Sawyer, I have

sorted out the follow-up data needed to terminate our partnership with Stone Enterprise. Since we were

the ones who called for termination, we were required to compensate for their losses. I've already

proceeded with that."

Nicholas didn't express much of an opinion as he listened to Edward's reports. Instead, he sat on his

executive chair, dressed in a handmade black suit over a white shirt that he buttoned all the way up.

His outfit, along with his flawless features, made him seem both dangerous and mesmerizing. The

sunlight from the floor-to-ceiling window in his office scattered all over his figure, enhancing his aura as

a powerful man who couldn't go unnoticed.

"Go on," he urged Edward to continue with the report. Nicholas didn't seem to care about the little

amount of money he had spent on compensating the Stones. "Also, the shareholders seem to be

protesting the loss we've faced while compensating the Stones. They're throwing a fuss over this

issue," Edward stated.

Nicholas's gaze darkened when he heard this. A threatening look flashed across his eyes. "You can

just ignore them. The shareholder meeting is tomorrow, and I'll make all of them shut up by then."

Edward gazed at the domineering president before him while he secretly muttered a prayer for

all the shareholders who were attending the meeting the next day. After that, Edward continued

to provide reports about other tasks. Once he was done, he turned around to leave the room.

However, he hesitated for a moment as he recalled something that he wasn't sure if he wanted

to report.

Nicholas quickly noticed the uncertain look on Edward's face. "What is it?" Nicholas asked with a

frown. Edward immediately explained himself when he saw the impatient look on his boss’s face.

"Well, I happened to hear that Hayley has left the country. Should I get someone to investigate

this?"

"No.” Nicholas rejected the idea without thinking twice. He had made things clear that day, so he

was sure that no one in the Stone Family would have the guts to get on his bad side again.

Furthermore, he wasn't interested in knowing about Hayley’s whereabouts.

Even though Hayley hadn't done anything to Tessa, she had been eyeing Tessa's every move.

She knew that Tessa was planning to join the orchestra's competition in order to get herself the

role of the lead violinist. When Hayley first heard about this, she nearly fell to the ground from

laughing too hard.

"She wants to chase after her dreams, huh? Well, let me be the one to ruin her dreams! I'll

destroy her! I’d like to see how she can snatch my man away from me after this!" Hayley hissed.
