Chapter 839

Chapter 839 The Unrelenting Remus If Greg becomes her apprentice, it’ll only be good for him! thought Stefania.

Tobias and Stefania were convinced by Nicholas’ words, but Remus was still against it. He ordered Nicholas, “I don’t care how great that music teacher is; I’m not allowing Greg to stay abroad with that Tessa woman. Get him back from overseas now!”

“I won’t do that,” Nicholas refused; he didn’t like Remus to interfere with his family affairs.

Remus’ anger surged when he saw how Nicholas remained unmoved. He chided, “You have to go even if you don’t want to! I’ll never let that Tessa woman hold Greg back.”

“Tessa won’t hold Greg back. She’ll only be even nicer to him,” Nicholas retorted with a look of displeasure. Then, he added in an unwavering tone, “Grandpa, you’re old now. I hope you’ll enjoy a life of ease and leisure at home instead of still vainly attempting to control everything.”

Remus was enraged by his words. “What’s the matter with your attitude? You think I’m being a busybody? I’m telling you, I’m doing this for Greg’s own good. He’ll only be ruined if he stays with that Tessa woman!”

“In that case, your worries are completely unnecessary. As I said, Greg will only do better by staying with Tessa. Also, even if Greg leaves the country, he won’t necessarily be worse off than while he was at home. I’ll arrange for him to be taught by the best teacher.” Nicholas looked as black as thunder in front of the unrelenting Remus. As his patience ran out, he added, “Don’t worry; my son won’t be inferior to anyone in the future. I also hope that you can have some confidence in me. And besides, can’t you see my determination after such a long time?”

Remus was about to continue his argument at great length, but he was stumped by Nicholas’ words. “Well, well, well. You’re a grown-up now. I can’t do anything about you anymore, huh?” he said before storming off in a huff.

Tobias and Stefania were somewhat worried about Remus, so they urged Ian to go upstairs to check on him. After learning that he was fine, they finally turned to look at their eldest son, who was sitting sullenly on the sofa.

Stefania advised, “Greg has never left our side before, so it’s normal for your grandpa to find it unacceptable. Do you have to make him angry? Can’t you discuss it with him amicably?”

Kieran couldn’t help but speak for Nicholas as he sat beside the latter. “Nicholas did want to discuss it amicably, but did Grandpa ever give him the opportunity?”

Stefania immediately shot him an angry glare. “When is it your turn to speak here? Just behave yourself and stay where you are!”

Speechless, Kieran felt depressed. Am I deemed worthless by my family or something? I don’t even have a say anymore.

Facing his parents indifferently, Nicholas replied in a tone that brooked no argument, “I won’t change my mind on letting Greg study abroad.”

Tobias and Stefania exchanged a brief look, knowing that Nicholas wouldn’t change his mind once he had made a decision. “Fine then. Since you’ve made up your mind, we won’t say anything. In any case, you won’t do Greg any harm. As for your grandpa, just give him some time. He’ll accept it eventually,” Tobias advised Nicholas.

Nicholas nodded.

The two men then talked about the arrangements for Gregory’s life abroad. “It’ll probably be tough for that lady to look after Greg now that she’s pregnant. You should send more people there to look after them.”

“I know that. I’ll arrange for someone to go there and take care of them.”

With that, the matter was decided.

On the other hand, Tessa was still unaware that the older members of the Sawyer Family had agreed to let Gregory live abroad with her. Worried, she asked about this during her video call with Nicholas that night. “I asked you earlier to tell your family that Greg’s going to study abroad with me. H-Have your parents agreed to it?”

“Don’t worry, I’ve dealt with them. Greg will be studying abroad with you in the future.”

Gregory leaped with joy beside Tessa when he heard Nicholas’ words. “Hurray! I can be with Mommy every day from now on.”

Tessa and Nicholas looked at the boy, who was shouting and jumping for joy, with their eyes full of fondness.
