Chapter 712 Remus’ Ulterior Motive

Tessa smiled and said, “No need for that. My driver is waiting for me outside.”

After hearing the lady’s words, Angus had no choice but to forget about the idea of taking Tessa home.

He then walked Tessa to the car and stood there without moving for a while. Not long after that, Louis

came closer with a pair of furrowed brows on his face.

“After so many rejections, you still won’t give up, will you?” Nonetheless, Angus only responded with

silence to his uncle’s question.

Meanwhile, Tessa received a video call from Nicholas as soon as she arrived home. Gazing at the lady

on the phone screen, the man asked in a concerned manner, “How do you feel today?”

Pretty good, but I’m still adjusting to life without you and Gregory.” Tessa looked at Nicholas in a

disappointed manner.

Feeling sympathetic for the woman he loved, he comforted her and said, “It’s okay. I’ll always be by

your side whenever you need me.”

“But I don’t want you to tire yourself out.” She shook her head as she didn’t want Nicholas to do

anything reckless for her.

“What are you going to do when you miss me then?” He smiled in embarrassment.

“I’ll call you like what I’m doing now.”

“I’ll be on standby with my phone twenty-four seven for you.” Nicholas’ sweet talking slowly lifted

Tessa’s mood. After a few more moments of chatting, he looked at Tessa, who was sleeping in a lovely

manner, and whispered with a gentle voice, “Good night, my girl.”

After that, Tessa had been busy with her tight schedules of training courses as usual, while Nicholas

was occupied by his work most of the time. While Remus’ birthday was just around the corner,

everyone in the Sawyer Family gathered around one night, which also happened to be their weekly

family dinner.

Then, Stefania brought up Remus’ birthday celebration for discussion and suggested her own idea.

“Father, Tobias and I are planning to organize a grand birthday feast for you.” After all, Remus had

been in bad health throughout the year, and she was hoping that the uplifting occasion would improve

his luck.

However, she didn’t speak her mind about why she wanted to hold a grand birthday feast for him.

Despite Remus’ unawareness of Stefania’s true intention, he had no objection to her suggestion.

On the other hand, Kieran was surprised to hear Stefania’s proposition. He then leaned closer to his

brother and whispered in confusion, “Hey, I thought Grandpa had always preferred to keep a low

profile, even for his birthday celebration. So, why is it different this year? Are there any strings

attached?”

As Nicholas knitted his eyebrows in an unconcerned manner, Kieran’s suspicion turned out to be

correct. In fact, Remus was indeed up to something. The reason why he agreed with Stefania’s idea to

hold a grand birthday feast was that he wanted to turn the occasion into a huge matchmaking session

for Nicholas, considering how dearly the young man still missed Tessa. I’m sure he is going to find a

lady who catches his eye by then.

“Ian, have our people send out an invitation tomorrow. Any lady at a marriageable age is cordially

invited to my birthday feast.” Remus gave his butler an order as soon as Nicholas and his family left.

Knowing what Remus was up to, Ian hesitantly expressed his concern and explained, “But, Old Master

Sawyer, I’m afraid that Master Nicholas is not going to be happy when he finds out about your plan.”

“No, he won’t be,” Remus responded confidently.

After hearing the older man’s firm response, the butler decided to do as he was told without saying a

single word more.

Two days later, most of the women whose family was rich and established in the city received Remus’

invitation to his birthday feast as the event became a viral topic around the country. After all, Remus

had never held such a grand birthday feast in a while. For that, many people who were invited were

proud of receiving Remus’ invitation, while some of them couldn’t help guessing about the older man’s

ulterior motive behind the occasion.

Not long after that, there were speculations and rumors circulating in the town, with some people

thinking Remus was organizing his birthday feast to help the Sawyer brothers find their soulmates.

Meanwhile, the others opined that the birthday feast was merely just a front for some businessmen to

meet up.

Nevertheless, a lot of people were inclined to believe the first speculation, thinking whoever could form

an alliance with the Sawyer Family would thrive under its protection. In a matter of days, Remus’

birthday feast was widely known across town as it was all over the news, with the media broadcasting

every charitable action the older man had ever done.
