Chapter 863 Play the Long Game
Wanda had thought Nicholas’ feelings toward her were gradually changing, but it seemed that she had just been imagining things. Because she had no reason to stay any longer, she simply left lest Nicholas got upset.That night, she went to Sawyer Residence with a gift in hand. “Old Master Sawyer, I’m here to visit you. How has your health been in the past two days?”
Feeling pleased by her thoughtfulness, Remus replied kindly, “I’m doing great. How about you? Has the company been progressing well? Did anyone cause any trouble for you?”
“It’s going quite smoothly. Besides, with Nicholas’ and Master Kieran’s help, nobody would dare to cause any trouble for me.”
Wanda knew what Remus wanted to hear and tactfully praised the two young masters of the Sawyer Family.
After she finished speaking, she added bashfully, “Speaking of which, I feel embarrassed for troubling Nicholas so often these days.”
“Why should you feel embarrassed? If you need anything in the future, just go to Nicholas. After all, he promised your grandfather to take good care of you.”
Remus hoped that the two of them would spend more time together as he hoped that the woman who would stand next to Nicholas would be someone who could assist him in his business compared to Tessa who usually dabbled in music.
Hearing this, Wanda thought that Remus was supporting herself as always, and her smile turned even sweeter. “Since you’ve said that, Old Master Sawyer, I won’t hold back with Nicholas in the future.”
However, despite her words, she was well aware that Remus’ support wasn’t enough for her to get together with Nicholas; she needed Nicholas’ feelings for her to change. At that thought, she suddenly pretended to look downcast and hesitated to continue speaking to Remus.
When he sensed her abnormal behavior, a glint flashed past Remus’ eyes, and he asked worriedly, “What’s wrong? Why are you unhappy all of a sudden?”
