Chapter 934
Always Been Yours
Chapter 934 What If Nicholas Takes a Liking to Her?
âSo what if theyâre married? They might not even love each other. I heard the only reason they got married was that he got Tessa pregnant,â Eunice said with pity. âWhat a waste of such a good man to be with a woman like her.â
Walter frowned, amused with anger by his daughterâs absurd logic. âWhether they love each other or not has nothing to do with you. Donât you dare bother President Sawyer.â
The potential jeopardy of the collaboration aside, Nicholas was already a married man! How ugly would it sound if people learned that his daughter interfered in someone elseâs marriage?!
Seeing that it was still a hard no from her father, Eunice, unwilling to resign, pulled out her trump card at once.
âDaddy, I know what youâre worried about. I promise you I wonât cross the line. I just want to win over the person I like. What if Mr. Sawyer takes a liking to me? You canât say that Iâve ruined their marriage then, can you?â At that, she wrapped her arms around Walterâs, whining and pleading in every way possible. âCome on, Daddy⦠Please⦠Just say yesâ¦â
A doting dad himself, Walter gave in in no time and ultimately agreed to it. âAlright, you can deliver the documents but with conditions.â
âYouâre the best, Daddy!â Elated, Eunice hugged her father, who enjoyed her fawning.
As for why he would agree to her request in the end, her words enlightened him and had him thinking. What if Nicholas actually takes a liking to Eunice? It can possibly happen, after allâ¦
By then, their strong alliance would make them the overlords of the Vienna market!
Moments later, he nudged her away and admonished, âI might have agreed to it, but you can only do this as a training assistant. Also, you canât meddle in this project or piss President Sawyer off and jeopardize our collaboration.â
âI got it, Daddy. Donât worry.â Eunice nodded with a smile, her amber eyes twinkling brightly.
Sometime later, she left Walterâs office while feeling elated.
â¦
Inside the CEOâs office of Sawyer Group, Edward looked hesitantly at Nicholas after he was done reporting work, to which Nicholas noticed and asked, âDo you have something to say?â
âPresident, are you seriously considering working with Walter?â Edward voiced his doubts at once.
He thought it was weird as he knew Nicholas hated Eunice, but now, his boss had decided to collaborate with her familyâs company.
At that, Nicholas answered plainly, âBusiness is business; a collaboration is still possible. Besides, I wonât be in charge of this in the end. Taylor will see to it once itâs finalized.â
Edward understood it at once and nodded, leaving the office to return to his work.
Later in the day, Nicholas had Edward return home after clocking out while the former picked Tessa and Gregory up at the orchestra.
However, whoâd have thought heâd find Eunice approaching him as soon as he got out of his car?
âWe meet again, Mr. Sawyer.â She smiled alluringly, seeming like she had forgotten about the episode the other day.
Nicholas, on the other hand, said nothing but only took an icy gander at her with displeasure laced in his eyes.
Her smile stiffened for a second, but she recovered very quickly and teased, âDonât you think youâre being a little cold, Mr. Sawyer? Weâre future partners, after all, no?â
However, the man still wouldnât bother himself with her.
Meanwhile, Tessa and Gregory were coming out of the building, and the former turned grim, for she found Eunice pestering her dear husband again.
Gregory, too, was far from happy as he grumbled, âWhy does that woman keep going up to Daddy?! Daddyâs clearly very annoyed with her.â
Albeit, Tessa said nothing but led the little guy over to them.
Meanwhile, having lost all patience, Nicholas was about to snap when he noticed his beloved wife and son approaching in his direction, and the frost in his eyes melted instantly.
