Chapter 412 You’ll Regret It Andrew nodded before walking toward Gregory. “Young Master Gregory, would you like to go to the
garden with me?”
Gregory blinked his eyes. As he was clever enough to know that Remus wanted to discuss something
with his father, he subconsciously turned to look at Nicholas.
Seeing the questioning look in Gregory’s eyes, Nicholas gave him a slight nod.
Soon, Gregory was led out of the living room by Andrew. As Remus watched the two walk into the
distance, his initially gentle expression darkened at once, and he projected a commanding aura through
every pore. Glaring at Nicholas sternly, he said in a commanding voice, “Where is that Reinhart woman?
Get her here.”
Nicholas’ face darkened slightly. “She isn’t here. Also, she’s got a name.”
However, Remus didn’t believe Nicholas’ words at all. “She’s not here? Do you think that I don’t know
anything?” He let out a snort. Then, he continued in a hostile tone, “Don’t think that I don’t know why
you’re staying here. Aren’t you doing all this for the sake of that Reinhart woman?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUpon hearing Remus’ words, Nicholas decided to stop hiding the truth from him. “So what if I’m staying
here for her sake? Greg likes her, and I don’t want to leave her either.”
Anger surged up within Remus when he heard this. He chided, “Like I said, that woman isn’t good
enough for you at all.”
“Whether she’s good enough for me isn’t up to you. She’s good enough for me as long as I think she is.”
The atmosphere became tense all at once as Nicholas confronted Remus, refusing to budge.
Seeing how determined Nicholas was, Remus boiled with rage. “Do you not believe that I’ll drive her into
a corner?!”
Unsurprisingly, Nicholas’ face was as black as thunder the instant Remus said that. “If you insist on doing
so, all I can say is that you’ll regret it.”
“Are you threatening me?”
“It’s you who threatened me first!” Nicholas met Remus’ gaze with his dark eyes.
The two were at each other’s throats.
Just as the atmosphere in the living room was horrifyingly tense, Edward came in from the outside. As
soon as he came in, he saw the two men confronting each other, and he immediately put on a solemn
expression. “President, I’ve done what you asked me to,” he said. With that, he handed the envelope in
his hand to Nicholas and nodded respectfully to Remus in greeting.
Nicholas took the envelope, but he didn’t look at it. Instead, he handed it to Remus right away, saying,
“Just take a look.”
Remus frowned. Still, he took the envelope and poured out its contents, only to realize that these were
some documents and testimonials for Nicholas’ application to rejoin the army. “Nicholas Sawyer, how
dare you really do this?!” He glowered furiously at Nicholas in disbelief.
Nicholas remained unmoved, though.
Upon seeing his response, Remus nearly exploded with rage. He rebuked bitterly in a loud voice, “Are
you gonna drive me to my death in order to avoid the engagement?!”
“You should know who is forcing whom here, Grandpa.” Nicholas looked at Remus frostily. “If you don’t
want me to rejoin the army, my request is simple. Stop forcing me into marrying the woman I don’t want
to marry.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmUnwilling to resign himself to this, Remus clenched his teeth and questioned, “Are you really unable to
live without that Reinhart woman?”
Nicholas fell silent for a moment. Then, he replied in a cold voice, “I’ve told you my request just now. It’s
simple, but it’s okay if you don’t agree to it. Kieran can take care of the company, anyway, so whether I’m
there or not doesn’t make any difference.” He didn’t give Remus a definite answer because he feared
that Remus would target Tessa in secret. After all, it was hard for him to guard against Remus’
resourcefulness and endless means. Furthermore, he couldn’t bear to let Tessa suffer any grievances,
nor could he bear the consequences of losing her.
Obviously, Remus was infuriated by Nicholas’ irresponsible reply. He reproached in a stern voice, “How
impudent! Is that what you’re supposed to say?”
Nicholas’ expression remained unchanged. He replied coldly, “I’ve made my position clear. If you insist
on going ahead with the engagement, I’ll also adhere to my choice.” Then, not wanting to continue the
subject, he changed the topic, saying, “Since you’ve come all the way here, you must’ve been tired. I’ve
had a room cleaned up for you. Just have a good rest; I’ll have someone send you back later on.”
