Chapter 828 Divorce
In actuality, Ian had overheard the conversation, but he believed that Tessa was not someone like
Wanda had depicted.
Remus did not know of Ian’s thought as he coldly snorted. “And? I’ve never come to like that girl. I trust
Wanda. She will never blabber such a thing mindlessly.”
To that, Ian was rendered speechless by his refute. Remus then continued, “Now that she’s involved in a
controversy, I won’t let it become a blot to Nicholas as well as the Sawyer Family. There are some things
that we must tend to. Otherwise, it might become a time bomb that will explode at any time.”
Judging from the old man’s determined gaze, Ian knew that it would be redundant to dissuade further.
So, he nodded helplessly after which he phoned Tessa in the afternoon when Nicholas was still working
in the office.
“Miss Reinhart, I’m Ian who works under Sawyer Residence. Old Master Sawyer wishes to see you.”

PlayvolumeAd In Dynasty Gardens, Tessa was baffled to hear that Remus wished to see her.
“Right now?”
“Yes. Please come as soon as possible.”
“Okay.” After hanging up the phone, the jittery feeling struck upon her because she could not understand
why Remus wanted to see her out of the blue. With the colossal guesses in her head, she went straight
to Sawyer Residence.
Walking toward the living room, she saw him sitting on the couch with solemnity. As the senior of the
household, the inherent majestic aura around him was formidable.
Nonetheless, she approached him and greeted politely, “Hi, Grandpa.”
He opened his eyes to take a look at the girl before him. Since she was going to visit him, she had
dressed up properly.
With the simple make-up enhancing her sophisticated nature, her demureness had the strange magic
touch that could placate one’s anger. Needless to say, Remus did notice that.
Furthermore, the fact that there was a change in her when he first saw her was more surprising to him.
Still, he needed to say whatever he had to.
As an afterthought, he asked her to sit before diving straight into the topic. “I’ve asked you to come
because I wish that you will divorce Nicholas.”
Tessa’s heart sank as she thought, I knew it.
“Why?” She bit her lips and stared at him straight into the eyes.
Remus leveled with her. “Although Nicholas has covered up for what you’ve done in Vienna, there’s no
secret that remains untold in this world. I know what you’ve done there.”
Misunderstanding that he had found out about the terminated contract with the band, she frowned in
displeasure. “Even if I’m not one of the band, I believe that it is not a reason that can separate us apart.”
“Besides, you’re bearing a person’s life on your back and there’s a problem with your attitude. Such

exclaimed Remus sternly.
Color drained from her face as though she was struck by lightning, for she had never expected him to
think that she was the cause for Kathleen’s death. The grievance grew in her as she gritted her teeth.
“Grandpa, have you looked into every detail of it? Just what makes you so sure that I’ve caused
someone’s death? Do I look like someone who would do that?”
“I firmly believe that there’s a reason for everything because it takes two to tango,” he countered
indifferently. “Plus, if you have nothing to do with it, why are you discarded by the band?”
She bit her lips in sorrow as she could not find the words to retaliate his question. She admitted that
there was an indirect interrelation in between, yet it was really not her fault.
Kathleen could not face the repercussions for the wrong deeds she had done; her tenacity was the one
to blame for and not someone else. Although it was bad to put it that way when the person involved had
passed away, it was the truth! Moreover, the terminated contract was a result of a hope to end things
nicely with Hathaway.
However, none of this was privy to Remus…
