Chapter 199
Seeing Tessa made Gregory happily pat the seat beside him. “Miss Tessa, come over quickly. I left this seat empty for you. I didn’t even give it up when my uncle came!”
To be able to see Gregory here filled Tessa with emotions. On one hand, she did not know how to face the child. On the other hand, she was very happy to see him.
——-
In the end, she walked toward Gregory, smiling as she asked gently, “Why are you here?”
Gregory replied happily, “I brought Daddy along when I heard that Mr. Timothy was treating us to a meal.”
Timothy did not deny what Gregory had said.
Nicholas must have known about Kieran helping us out. He might even have contributed some help himself. It’s fine if we include him as well. A few more people makes no difference, after all.
After sitting down, Timothy raised his wine glass and toasted the two brothers. “President Sawyer and Master Kieran, I sincerely thank you both for helping me out with the matter of my company’s startup.”
Reciprocating his gratitude, the two brothers drank the alcohol.
Because he was the scapegoat for his brother’s doings, Kieran naturally had to say something. Therefore, he also raised his wine glass and said, “This is but a small matter. You don’t have to thank us like this.”
Since he had already said it, Timothy could not just keep expressing his gratitude, so he just smiled gratefully.
Ever since the incident, Tessa had always wondered about something. Now that the crisis was over, she thought that it would be suitable to bring it up.
Opening her mouth, she asked, “You investigated why the licensing process for my brother’s company would not go through, right? Someone told me that it was because my brother might have offended somebody, so I was wondering if Master Kieran has found out who the mastermind was?”
After stopping for a brief moment, she then proceeded, “This matter is very important to me, so I hope that you will divulge this information.”
