Chapter 44

Nicholas replied in a cold manner, “This wasn’t done by Miss Reinhart, so stop asking about it

anymore.”

Upon hearing that, everyone in the office was shocked as thelr eyes widened.

Even Tessa was stunned when she heard what he said.

When he entered earlier, she thought that he’d be exasperated and ask the police to take her away.

However, he actually came to save her.

At the same time, Tobias and Stefania were both shocked after witnessing what had happened before

she approached to reprimand Nicholas. “What are you trying to do, Nicholas? You’re messing things

up!”

Nevertheless, Nicholas ignored Stefania and dragged Tessa to her feet in a bossy manner and

declared, “Let’s go!”

When Tessa was pulled to her feet by Nicholas, she was so shocked that her mind completely went

blank.

On the other hand, Stefania was so pissed off that she went forward to block his way. “Nicholas, what

is wrong with you? I told you that I need an explanation for what has happened, and this is the

explanation that you’re giving me?”

However, Nicholas returned her gaze with a determined look on his face. “Mom, Miss Reinhart is not

the murderer. You’ve made a mistake in blaming her.”

An extremely agitated Yana immediately rushed forward to chastise his actions. “Nicholas, you must

know how to distinguish between right or wrong! If it’s not her, are you implying that Roselle and the

butler did it? Nicholas, h-how can you believe an outsider instead?!”

Still, he replied coldly, “I only believe in the evidence. The footage from the surveillance camera at

home has shown that Miss Reinhart didn’t spike the juice that Gregory drank, and that’s the truth.

Would you like to head back with me to investigate the case, Mrs. Gingham?”

In a state of agitation, she quickly interrupted, “No, no. Even though Miss Reinhart wasn’t caught doing

anything in the footage, what if she fed Gregory something else after that?”

However, Nicholas gave her a chilly look immediately after hearing what she said, “Mrs. Gingham, why

do you sound like you knew what exactly went down? Could it be that you’ve done something like this

before?”

Immediately, a terrified look appeared on Yana’s face before she waved her hands with a pale look.

“No! I-I am just saying!”

At this moment, Roselle stood up in a hurry and gently coaxed, “Nicholas, please don’t be mad at my

mom as she’s just worried about Gregory’s condition and wants to help you investigate the actual

perpetrator behind this. Since Miss Reinhart is innocent, it’s our fault for suspecting her. Please don’t

be mad.”

Yet, Nicholas’ cold gaze landed on her a second later, which caused beads of cold sweat to start

forming on her forehead.

Then, he ignored everyone’s protest and turned around before leaving with Tessa.

When the two of them arrived at the hospital entrance, Nicholas released his grip on Tessa before

apologizing, “Miss Reinhart, I hope that you won’t take my family’s behavior to heart since they only

suspected you because of their concern for Gregory.””

Tresa couckled coldly when she came back to her senses. Does he really think that I’m going to act like

nothing happened just because he used the carrot after stick approach on me?

Her demeanor then became cold. “President Sawyer, you don’t have to explain yourself. You had also

suspected me from the very beginning, right?”

Nicholas fell silent.

Indeed, he wouldn’t believe in anyone until he saw the proof.

Meanwhile, she laughed lightly before her gaze darkened and she lamented, “Still, I will have to thank

you for clearing my name and believing in me. Despite that, I still have to say that… I don’t think I’m

suitable for the job at your house, so I think this will be the end of me being Gregory’s teacher. I believe

that your family has the capability to hire a better teacher than me for Gregory.”
