Chapter 745
Always Been Yours
Chapter 745 Sheâs Not Fit He spoke loudly, pretending to be surprised while looking at Remus delightfully. âGrandpa, havenât you been asking Nicholas for another great-grandson? You have Gregory right now, and you might even have a great-granddaughter next. Imagine, sheâll be so cute and adorable.â
Remus didnât say a word, his face incredibly dark.
Meanwhile, Kieran didnât mind him either. He continued to jokingly canvass, âOf course, it could be twins as well. Arenât you at a loss for words at Nicholasâ efficiency?â
Looking at Kieranâs jovial look, Remus was even more enraged. âShut up! Youâre not in the place to talk now. Stay aside quietly,â he snapped at Kieran and took his rage out on him, for he didnât understand how things had turned out this way when they were here to ask for an explanation from Nicholas.
For a moment, no one said anything in the living room. Tobias and Stefania didnât know what more they could say. As for Kieran, he didnât dare to simply say anything after getting scolded by his grandfather.
At this moment, Nicholas looked at the silent crowd, and his gaze landed on Remus. He couldnât help but ask, âGrandpa, Tessa is a good woman. Sheâs hardworking and self-motivated, and sheâll definitely achieve something big in the future. Why do you have a biased opinion toward her?â
After a few moments of silence, Remus replied coldly, âThatâs because sheâs not fit to be Gregoryâs mother.â
Hearing that, Nicholas narrowed his eyes as his face turned gloomy. âYou should know very well that no one is more qualified than her to be Gregoryâs mother.â
He stared at Remus and continued, âAlso, has Gregory gotten worse because of her? Heâs even becoming more thoughtful these days, donât you think so?â
Remus was speechless once more, but he was unwilling to let Nicholas marry Tessa just like that. In the end, he ground his teeth in anger and said, âEven if she can take care of Gregory, the woman beside you should be someone who can help you with your business.â
When Kieran heard that, he started to have mixed feelings. He didnât know that Remus would take Nicholasâ marriage as leverage for their familyâs interests.
On the contrary, Nicholas was still calm as usual. After all, he already knew what kind of person Remus was.
âGrandpa, I hope you can understand that what I need is a life partner. I want a soul mate, not a business partner.â He looked at Remus with coldness in his eyes. âI have my employees to help me with my business. Why would I need a woman to maintain it for me?â
When Remus heard that, he turned blue in the face. Tobias also felt uncomfortable hearing that, so he snapped, âHow can you talk to your grandfather this way, Nicholas?!â
âIâm just stating the facts. Why? Do all of you think that our Sawyer Family has declined so badly that we need to rely on a woman?â
His words shut the eldersâ mouths completely. On the other hand, Kieran, who was observing from the side, gave his brother a thumbs up.
At this moment, Gregory ran out in little steps from the side. âGreat-Grandpa, can you please let Daddy and Miss Tessa be together?â
All this while, he was hiding at the back since it was his first time seeing his great-grandfather and grandfather this angry, so he was afraid of them. Now that he realized the atmosphere had turned slightly better, he quickly came out to help his daddy.
When Remus saw his precious great-grandson beside him, his expression turned calmer, but he didnât answer the little guy.
Seeing Gregory here, Stefania felt that he shouldnât be present since this was a matter between the adults, so she wanted to let him leave the place. âGregory, why donât you show me your room?â
Gregory was a smart kid, so he understood his grandmotherâs intention. He quickly hugged Remus by the leg and said, âIâm not leaving.â He shook his head.
As he said that, he tilted his little head and looked at Remus before saying in a baby voice, âGreat-Grandpa, Miss Tessa is very good. Sheâs very good to me too. She even taught me how to play the piano and violin. She also taught me to be a thoughtful kid. Can you not dislike Miss Tessa? She has a little baby in her tummy now. If sheâs sad, the little baby will be sad too.â
