Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 754

Chapter 754 Comply

Heartbroken, Nicholas held Tessa’s hand and defended her, saying “I’ve said it before—I need a life partner. I want a soul mate, not a business partner or a subordinate. Or are you possibly thinking that the future of the Sawyer Family lies in the hands of a woman?”

His words were indeed personal, which undoubtedly caused Remus’ face to turn beyond grim.

“Nicholas, how dare you speak to your grandfather like that?!” Tobias reprimanded.

Still indifferent, Nicholas wanted to continue, but Tessa tugged on him while shaking her head.

“Admittedly, the wealth of the Sawyer Family can have someone want for nothing, and this might be why many women want to marry into the purple. However, I’m not one of them, and this isn’t the kind of life I want. I can understand why you’d have such a misunderstanding,” said Tessa word by word as she fixed her gaze on Remus.

“I have my own dream to pursue, and I can honestly tell you getting pregnant isn’t part of the plan. But now that I am, I have no plans of giving the child up. The baby is proof of our love.”

Remus was somewhat at a loss for words, looking grim when he saw how Tessa felt her belly.

However, Tessa wasn’t bothered, continuing to speak her thoughts earnestly. She said, “Nicholas and I stumbled many times before our relationship finally became stable, and I’m sure you’re aware of the incidents that happened in between. He doesn’t want me to suffer any grievances, and I don’t want to put him in a difficult position either. Hence, I’ll strive to be excellent and worthy of him. I hope you can accept me.”

Timothy couldn’t sit back anymore at this point, backing his sister up. “I get what you’re trying to tell us now, Old Master Sawyer. My sister might not be born into the purple, but I will work hard and move the Reinhart Family up into the ranks of the elite, becoming a family that’s worthy of the Sawyers. Even if the goal seems impossible now, it’s not going to stop me.”

Tessa couldn’t be more touched to hear her brother’s pledge.

Meanwhile, Gregory had come downstairs at this time.
