Chapter 264

The smile on Remus’ face fell a little. “There’s a lot of that. Which one are you asking about?”

“Grandpa, you know what I’m asking about, and this will be the last time I’m asking you. Why exactly are you

picking on the Reinhart siblings so much?” an emotionless Nicholas asked.

After Remus snorted, he answered, “Picking on them? I’ve told you the reason very clearly the last time. That girl is

not good enough for you, and you should stay away from her while it’s not too late. If you keep being so close with

them, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

“Grandpa!” Nicholas exclaimed angrily.

“What? You have the guts to raise your voice at me and challenge me because of that woman? Nicholas Sawyer,

there’s a limit to my patience as well, and you keep trying it time after time. Do you really think that I’ll just let you

do as you wish?” he snapped.

As he stood motionlessly, Nicholas’ sculptured face was incredibly grim. Even though Remus had always been a

man of his words, Nicholas wasn’t a person who couldn’t scheme either. If both of them really went head to head

against each other, nobody could predict who the winner would be in the end.

And just like that, they were in a silent stalemate for a few minutes.

Finally, Remus sighed, as though he was defeated by Nicholas’ stubbornness.

He said, “I am the one who brought you up, Nicholas, so I won’t ever harm you. All you have to know is that no

matter what I do, I do it for your own good. It’s undeniable that you’re running the company well, but relationships

are complicated. When you were schooling and in the military, you didn’t have much contact with girls, and I’m

worried that you’ll be misled. If you really want someone like Tessa Reinhart, there are plenty of girls like her on the

streets outside. She’s nothing special and you can just forget about her after having a fling with her. However, if

you’re really looking for a wife, you have to search for one from a prestigious family because that’s the correct

choice. If you really think that you’re having too much free time despite the work in the company, then you can

look for Hayley who’s missing you very much.”

A solemn Nicholas said immediately, “I don’t like Hayley. Don’t bother to match us up.”

Once again, Remus’ anger sparked. “Who do you like if not her? That Reinhart girl? Don’t even think about it

because it’s impossible. As long as I’m still around, she can forget about stepping into the Sawyer Family.”

Nicholas’ voice turned a few notches colder. “You should enjoy your retirement in peace, Grandpa. Take care of

your health, and if you’re bored, just do some gardening while cultivating your health and well-being. Don’t

interfere with my affairs again. Also, don’t make any decisions for me and hurt innocent people in the name of ‘for

my own good.”

While Remus took it that Nicholas had indirectly admitted his liking for Tessa, he was furious when he heard all the

sarcastic and hostile things that his grandson had just said. “Nicholas Sawyer, if you really want the best for her, tell

her to obediently leave Brentwood. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

“If that’s the case, then there’s nothing to discuss between us. You can give it a try,” Nicholas threatened in a low

growl and left the place directly in big strides.

After he left, all the peace and leisure which were previously on Remus’ face were gone. In its place was menacing

fury. “Damn it!”

Meanwhile, Nicholas was looking glum after leaving the mansion. Although Remus refused to tell him the reason he

was picking on Tessa, he was already sure that Remus had a great deal of malice for her.

What would the exact reason be to make a weak girl like Tessa the target of Remus’ attack to the point where

Remus would do all that he could to match Nicholas with another?

Could it be… Tessa is Greg’s birth mother? Nicholas wondered.

It seemed that there were a lot of similarities between Tessa and Gregory’s biological mother-seafood allergy and

musically gifted. In addition, Tessa even had the same scar and tattoo which that woman had. All these were simply

too much of a coincidence.

The woman from before was arranged by Remus, so he definitely knew who she was. However, if Tessa was that

woman, why didn’t she recognize Remus, and why did she get close to Gregory? Wasn’t she the one who

abandoned him?

Everything was just so odd.

Seeing that Nicholas didn’t look good after leaving the Sawyers, Edward could guess that Nicholas didn’t manage to

get the answers which he wanted from Remus.
