    Chapter 24


    “Alright. President Sawyer.” Edward proceeded to carry out his orders and loaded the luggage onto the


    trunk of the car by which they came to the airport.


    At the same time, Yana’s face changed, showing an expression that clearly indicated that she was


    ufortable with what had happened. In the meantime, Roselle’s eyes also lit up sinisterly shortly


    before her gaze turned normal.


    Nheless, Nichs acted as if he didn’t realize anything and told the mother and daughter to go


    without him. “Mrs. Gingham and Miss Gingham, I have something to attend toter, so I’ll have the


    butler take you back to the mansion. As for dinner at night, I’ll be there.”


    When thedies heard his words, they were stunned into a trance, but as Yana was about to express


    her dissatisfaction, Roselle quickly came to her senses and chuckled. “I’m sorry that you had toe


    so far just to pick us up despite your busy schedule, Nichs. If we had known, we would have taken a


    cab by ourselves.”


    “No worries.” Nichs gazed at thedy with a cial look.


    Roselle nodded and smiled gently. “Well, you should probably attend to your business now, Nichs.


    I’ll take Greg home first and meet his grandmother.”


    Nichs didn’t reply to Roselle directly but instead looked at Gregory to see what he had to say about


    that. The boy reacted with a long face, decisively turning Roselle’s suggestion down. “I want to be with


    Miss Pretty Lady. I don’t want to go back home with some strangers.” As soon as he said that, he made


    his way to the Maybach that Nichs had just got on.


    While Tessa was left standing without any idea what to do, Gregory poked his head out of the door and


    called out to her. “Come here, Miss Pretty Lady. Let’s go home together!”


    Sensing how differently the boy’s tone sounded when he spoke with Tessa, Roselle could barely hide


    the unhappiness written all over her face. As her gaze darkened even more, she continued to smile


    and maintain her decency, waving her hand while saying, “A-Alright, Nichs, Mom and I will go first.


    See you tonight.”

    “Sure.” Nichs nodded and told his butler to ensure thedies’ safety before thetter agreed with a


    nod and drove away. “Please take them home safely, Edward.”


    On the other hand, Roselle finally dropped her pretense and showed a cold expression on her face


    when she was on her way back to the manor. At the same time, Yana was also angry, evident in her


    gloomy look.


    Who’s thatdy? Howe she is so close to Greg?! Is she really just a music teacher? Or is she


    some woman that Nichs has a fling with?


    Despite the problems that were bothering her deep down, Yana didn’t dare to speak her mind but shot


    a gaze at her daughter. When Roselle met her mother’s gaze and understood what it meant, she was


    overwhelmed by her anger, which she was able to suppress shortly after. Then, she raised the corner


    of her lips and sounded out Edward, who was sitting in the driver’s seat. “Edward, Miss Reinhart seems


    like a nice person. How long has she been here? She seems to be really close to Greg.”


    Without much hesitation, Edward went on and replied with a smile, “Not very long, actually. She’s only


    been here for a few days, but for some reason, the Little Prince just seems to click perfectly with her.


    Wherever Miss Reinhart goes, he’ll surely want to be along, which is strange because he hardly


    associates with anyone until he meets her.”


    When Roselle heard Edward’s reply, her eyes darkened, and a pang of bitter jealousy surged through


    her.


    Thatdy has only been here not long ago, yet she’s gotten so close to Greg already? What the heck is


    going on?


    Although Roselle might have been living her life abroad previously, she had never stopped following


    everything that happened around Nichs. Thus, she was aware that Gregory was a shy child who


    was onlyfortable with people with whom he was familiar and hardly socialized with strangers.


    Other than that, she also knew that Nichs hadn’t really gotten to know any woman, but after she


    took a break from following Nichs, she was stunned by Tessa’s sudden appearance.


    Then, when she recalled the moment that Nichs protected Tessa earlier on, her jealousy took over


    her mind and swamped her with a great sense of danger.


    Yana was able to see through her daughter’s worry and patted her hand tofort her, but her eyes


    were filled with a darkened, sinister energy. After all, the mother and daughter had returned to the


    country they came from with an agenda to win Nichs over. In fact, the Gingham Family had been


    suffering from poor performances in their international businesses, although they might still look


    sessful on the outside.


    Therefore, the twodies were counting on the marriage between Roselle and Nichs to secure the


    necessary resources from the Sawyer Group in order to help save the Gingham Group. Because of


    that, they were determined to get what they wanted and would do anything to get rid of anyone who


    stood in their way.


    Anyone who tries to stop me will be gotten rid of!
