Chapter 706
“No need for the meal. As for the apology, I don‘t think it‘s necessary either.”
Timothy gave Lucas a cold look as he said without mercy, “I‘ve clearly told Miss Turner yesterday that the partnership between our families has come to an end.”
Hearing that, Lucas turned pale in the face. He was also a little annoyed, thinking that Timothy was too cruel with his choice of words.
Even if he was very dissatisfied, he could only endure it because of Timothy‘s relationship with Nicholas.
As he was about to persuade a change of heart, the door to the office suddenly opened.
Tessa walked in with a lunch box because she had promised her brother that she would deliver his meals today. When Timothy saw Tessa walking in, his originally haughty face turned gentle in an instant.
“Tess, you‘re here.”
Tessa nodded as she walked over to him, carrying the lunch box.
When Yvette saw Tessa walking slowly toward them, her face fell.
She never thought that this woman was Timothy‘s sister and also the mistress of the Sawyer Group. When she remembered the horrible words she said to this woman, her face instantly turned pale.
Just then, Tessa frowned when she caught sight of Yvette and her father sitting on the couch. Even though she didn‘t know Lucas, Lucas looked very much like Yvette, so it wasn‘t difficult to guess their relationship.
“Why are they here?”
“Nothing, they‘ll be gone soon.”
With that, Timothy asked his assistant to escort the guests out.
Lucas also guessed Tessa‘s identity, and he was reluctant to leave.
But he knew that if he stayed, he would only annoy Timothy and Tessa even more. So, he left quickly with Yvette.
Once out of the building, Lucas thought about how they had lost their golden opportunity to get involved with the prestigious Sawyer Group, and the more he thought about it, the more pissed he got.
“You useless thing! You‘ve cut off the chance for our family to advance further just like that!
In his anger, he gave Yvette a solid slap straight away.
