Chapter 255

Tessa nodded. “Thank you for today, and I’m sorry for getting you involved.”

“It’s okay. I’m not hurt either. Don’t worry so much.”

When the two of them were talking, Scott felt a cooling sensation behind him, as if he was being given a deathly stare.

After speaking, he quickly left their sight and that sense of oppression slowly disappeared.

Upon returning home, Tessa examined her brother’s face. Now that Timothy had been beaten up until he was bruised, his face was terribly injured, which made her extremely distressed.

Without saying a word, she turned to get the medical kit before helping him to treat his wounds.

“It may hurt a little. You’ll have to bear with it for a while.” Tessa held his face and gently cleaned the wounds.

After applying salve on his face, his wounds looked even more severe. The more she looked at it, the angrier she became and she couldn’t help but say, “The Reinhart Family are animals.”

They actually came up with such a vicious plan, bringing one team of bodyguards respectively to restrain each side where they even made a physical attack.

Timothy nodded. Knowing that his sister was distressed because of him, he repeated after her. “They really are animals! Garbage!”

As Nicholas watched the two people, who were usually calm, scolding their enemy, not only did he find them childish, but also a little cute.

However, Scott didn’t interrupt the siblings, but simply listened quietly.

Timothy suddenly thought of their conversation at Sawyer Group, so he added, “But, Silas said this incident is because of the order issued by Sawyer Group. All the companies in Brentwood knew. Only the two of us were kept in the dark. President Sawyer, why did it suddenly become like this?”

Tessa thought of her own dismissal. Nicholas didn’t refute it and Stefania had silently agreed.

Was there a connection between these two matters?

Nicholas pondered for a moment. “Old Master Sawyer did this.”

He turned to look at Tessa and saw that her expression was rather nasty. Krowing that she had vaguely guessed the truth of the matter, he had no plans to hide it from her anymore and explained, “Because Old Master Sawyer thinks that I’m getting too close to your sister.”

There was no need to explain the rest. For a moment, Timothy was taken aback before the realization dawned on him. Does Old Master Sawyer think that Tessa isn‘t worthy of the Sawyer Family, so he broke them apart? But, what right does he have to do this?

Tessa was even more annoyed now. In order to keep her from getting closer to Nicholas, Remus had thrown them repeated warnings.

1 Tessa suddenly realized that it was probably Remus’ doing that the documents for starting the company couldn’t be obtained. Otherwise, who would dare to be so bold as to fight against Sawyer Group’s business partners?

Then, she lost her job and Timothy’s company couldn’t obtain any business partners. It seemed that Remus was just trying to push the siblings to the edge.

Moreover, he was trying to destroy their lives just because of an unconfirmed rumor? Isn‘t he being too arbitrary?

For their family to rely on their status and wealth to fight against people like them, it was a task as simple as crushing an ant to death.

If Remus truly didn’t want them to be together, he could just make it clear that they should leave. If he had played such tricks in secret, they wouldn’t know what they did wrong even if they died.

Tessa sincerely felt that the Sawyer Family wasn’t something that a small family like them could deal with.

She didn’t want both of them to suffer this kind of nonsense again.

Standing up to face Nicholas, she said, “President Sawyer, I have a clear conscience about whether or not I was approaching your family.”

“I know.” Nicholas nodded.

From the beginning, he and Gregory were the ones pestering Tessa. She had avoided them many times before, but in the end, the father and son still came knocking on her door.

To put it bluntly, this matter was indeed the Sawyer Family’s fault.

No matter what unpleasant remarks Tessa was going to throw his way, Nicholas was going to endure it.

However, Tessa didn’t say much and merely sneered, “You know, but what’s the use of knowing? When you came knocking, so did the problems that your grandfather created. Are we supposed to be grateful that you’re solving the problem for us?”
