Chapter 1139 Dodged a Bullet
Wanda’s expression darkened as well. She was extremely unhappy about the situation. “I
want you to keep an eye on the company. I’m going to go over to Sawyer Group for a
while.” After giving Samantha her orders, Wanda grabbed her keys from the table and
headed out of the office.
“Let’s have a chat, Nicholas,” Wanda said as she entered Nicholas’ office. Edward followed
closely behind her with a guilty look on his face. “I’m sorry, President Sawyer. I couldn’t
stop her.” Nicholas shot Edward an icy glare before giving him a stern warning. “I don’t
want you to make the same mistake again.”
“Got it!” Edward nodded.
Wanda was annoyed at how Nicholas seemed to be ignoring her, so she strode toward his
table and continued speaking. “You don’t have to be so cruel, do you, Nicholas? I know I

already received the punishment I deserved? Why won’t you give me a chance to learn
from my mistakes?” she asked.
“Well, if every person who makes a mistake gets a second chance, wouldn’t that be unfair
to the victims? Anyway, there’s no hard rule saying that I have to forgive you. Do you
think you can get away with it by acting as if nothing had ever happened?” Nicholas was
direct and harsh with his words, and Wanda found herself speechless for a moment.
In the end, Wanda had no choice but to lower her voice as she begged him. “Nicholas, our
families have a lot of history together. I hope you can consider that before terminating all
our joint projects.” Muller Group had only started their business for a short while, so they
would definitely suffer a huge loss if Sawyer Group were to call off their partnership. Even
though Wanda’s intention had simply been to stay in Southend when she first started the
company, she had also put in a lot of hard work and effort into the company. She had
sacrificed her all just to get the company to the position that it was in right now.
Nicholas scoffed. “Well, it’s too late for regrets now. There’s no turning back. You don’t
have to pester me, either; I’m not going to change my mind.”
Wanda looked as if she had just been struck by lightning upon hearing his words. She
stumbled a few steps back as she stared at Nicholas with a look of disbelief. “Are you that
heartless? Our families have been working together for decades!”
“Well, why didn’t you think of our decades of partnership when you took action against my
wife and child?” Nicholas asked in return as he shot Wanda a mocking glare. “You should
be glad that our families have been doing business with each other for such a long time.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t be so nice—I’d do more than just cut ties with you. If anyone else
dares to threaten my family or the people I love, I might not even spare them their life!”
Nicholas’ glare turned icy as he looked at Wanda.
Wanda was so shocked that she could feel herself trembling with fear. “Well, you dodged a
bullet this time, Miss Muller,” Nicholas commented. “I won’t do anything to you because of
the relationship between our families. However, I won’t provide you with another chance if
you do anything stupid again.” After warning her, he turned to stare at Edward. “Send her
out!”

to her company. Once again, Samantha came knocking on the door just moments after
Wanda entered her office. “Bad news, President Muller. A few companies have called and
requested to terminate their partnerships with us.”
“Which companies are you referring to?” Wanda asked. Samantha quickly ran through a
list of the companies that contacted them. Many of these companies had only asked for a
partnership because of how involved they were with Sawyer Group—all of these
companies were Sawyer Group’s trusty clients. If these companies decided to terminate
their agreements, it’d be a huge blow to the company. Wanda felt extremely bothered as
she thought about this. Samantha could tell that Wanda was unhappy, but she couldn’t
find the right words to say even after some time.
Wanda noticed the look on Samantha’s face, so she questioned Samantha. “Is something
else the matter? You can tell me everything at once.”
“Well, a lot of our staff feel uncertain about their future with this company. They’re all
paranoid—they’re worried that the company will go bankrupt eventually.” Samantha
spilled the truth in the end. It only makes sense for them to be worried, Wanda thought to
herself.
