Chapter 265
“What are we going to do now, President Sawyer?” he asked tentatively.
With a stoic face, Nicholas answered, “We’re going back first.”
Things had been happening one after another recently, and he needed to gather his thoughts properly. Turning to Edward, he asked, “Do you think that Greg and Tessa resemble each other a little bit?”
When he heard Nicholas’ question, Edward’s heart skipped a beat. Did President Sawyer guess it as well? Previously, Edward and Kieran were merely suspicious, but they lacked the guts to conduct a DNA test on their own, so Edward was so shocked at the sudden question that he broke out in cold sweat.
Turning his head stiffly, he turned to Nicholas. “You mean a biological relationship? Do you want me to have a test done?”
“No,” Nicholas rejected him decisively.
“But, President Sawyer—”
“Let me think about this matter. Start the car,” he instructed in his husky voice.
It was true that he had his own considerations; if he impulsively ordered for the test and it turned out to be her, what would he do? However, if it wasn’t her, what would happen instead? For all these reasons, he hadn’t thought over it carefully yet.
It wasn’t a good time to conduct the DNA test now because he still needed to observe the situation for a little more.
Lifting his gaze at the rearview mirror, Nicholas caught sight of a black sedan car behind him, which was maintaining almost the same speed as his car, and his eyes narrowed dangerously.
Now that Remus had openly ordered people to monitor him and if this was how he wanted to play, then he shouldn’t blame Nicholas for using the same method against
him.
“Send someone of our own to closely monitor everything that Old Master Sawyer is doing and inform me immediately once there’s anything,” Nicholas instructed coldly.
“Yes, President Sawyer.” Again, Edward’s heart skipped a beat. Looks like these two are really going to confront each other.
Although Edward was working for Sawyer Group, he was firstly Nicholas’ man, so he would definitely do as instructed by his boss. Therefore, he acknowledged the
instruction and made the arrangements.
At the Sawyer Residence, the atmosphere in the mansion had a weird aura after Nicholas stormed out. It was so quiet, and nobody dared to make the slightest sound..
The look on Remus’ face was incredibly unpleasant and he reckoned that Nicholas was determined to go against him this time. The heir whom he had nurtured with his own hands was now willing to confront him because of a woman.
Even if it happened to someone else, they wouldn’t be able to accept it either.
Andrew refilled Remus’ cup of tea. “Sir, don’t be mad. Master Nicholas hasn’t experienced such a relationship in his youth whereby it’s his first time encountering a person like this. So, it’s unavoidable that he’s smitten with her. In the future, he’ll definitely understand all your efforts for him.”
“Hmph, it will be too late by that time.” After Remus snorted, he slammed the table with force again. “I can’t allow him to destroy himself because a woman.”
“So, what should we do now, Sir?” Andrew asked with a bow.
“Not only are we targeting the Reinhart siblings, we are also after everyone around them. Investigate all of them carefully and don’t miss out on anyone. There’s no need to do a clean job,” Remus answered emotionlessly.
Andrew nodded. “Yes, Sir.”
Remus clearly wanted to make it obvious that he was targeting Tessa and Timothy to the point where they would be left alone and helpless, thereby pushing them into a dead end
However, this was the result of their own doings. In the beginning, he had given them the chance, but they didn’t cherish it and continued to do as they wished instead.
On this day, Timothy went to university since he had some things to get done there. Right after he walked through the main entrance, a group of people had blocked his path.
Lifting his head, he took a glance at them and saw that it was Bruce with his annoying friends. Recalling what happened at the bar, Timothy wanted nothing to do with them at all and moved to the other side.
Despite that, Timothy was still surrounded by them before they started to snigger.
Without saying or doing anything, Bruce and his friends merely gathered around Timothy as though they were watching a show.
An annoyed Timothy lifted his eyes and stared right at Bruce. “What’s the meaning of this, Bruce?”
“I don’t mean anything, but what about you? Why are you blocking my path for no reason?” Shoving Timothy’s shoulder strongly, Bruce then took a step back and sneered. “Reinhart, have you heard that a good dog will move out of the way? You’re still in my path now, though. Looks like you’re not a good dog. Get out of the way!”
