    Chapter 328


    The next day at the Sawyer Group, Hayley’s father, Nero, went to look for Tobias to speak about


    business, as she mentioned.


    When both men were chatting casually, he pretended to say unintentionally, “I heard that Nichs has


    his eyes on a project from a foreignpany. It seems like it’s a project with bright prospects that


    manypanies are interested in.”


    “That’s true,” Tobias admitted with a nod.


    Nero chuckled and said, “Well, we recently found out that the managing director of thatpany


    happens to be Hayley’s ssmate.”


    “Really? That’s such a wonderful coincidence.” Despite the smile on Tobias’ face, he secretly cursed,


    You wily old fox.


    He was aware that Nero was saying this to him on purpose, as well as the reason why he was doing


    this. This wily old fox wants to create an opportunity for Hayley so that Nichs will think highly of her.


    Even so, he still made a mental note of this, and Nero didn’t continue this particr conversation after


    that. After all, he should stop after making his point. Otherwise, it would seem like they were throwing


    themselves at the Sawyers if he said more.


    Later, after Tobias had seen Nero off, he went straight to Nichs’ office.


    Nichs was a little surprised to see his father’s arrival in the spacious and bright president’s office.


    Nevertheless, he stood up from his seat, greeted his father, and showed him to a seat on the couch.


    After cing a ss of water in front of Tobias, he asked, “Why are you here, Dad?”


    “There’s something I would like to discuss with you.” After taking a seat, Tobias told him his purpose for


    the visit. “Earlier, Nero came over to speak about the cooperation between our families. I know that


    you’re not interested in Hayley, but the business with the Stone Family has to continue.”


    “I’m not against our families’ continued cooperation,” Nichs saidposedly.

    “I know that you’re not against it, but I want to speak about something else.” Tobias paused for a


    moment and then told him the news he had received from Nero earlier. “I know that you’re interested in


    a project from a foreignpany, but there hasn’t


    been any progress the whole time. So, I think you should use Hayley as a bridge between your


    company and that foreignpany you had your eye on for a while. Then,ter, ask her out for a meal


    when you’re free.”


    Nichs clearly didn’t seem willing with his furrowed brows, and Tobias could see it. “I know you


    couldn’t be bothered to resort to such a method, but there are quite a fewpanies within the country


    who have their eyes on this project as well. Of course, ourpany has nock of capabilities, but if


    it’s experience in the industry we’re talking about, then the Sawyer Group is a newbie in this category.”


    AM


    Even Nichs had to admit that this point certainly caught his interest because the prospect of that


    company’s project was very promising, but to the Sawyer Group, it was new territory. In order to obtain


    that project, they had to use a different way.


    As he sensed that Nichs was a little swayed, Tobias continued, “Furthermore, the Stone Family is


    also interested in this project, and they want the two families to work together. So, you don’t have to


    overthink it.”


    When Nichs heard that, he agreed to it. After all, he had no reason to turn it down since it was a


    cooperation with a clear-cut line between private and work affairs.


    After Tobias left, Nichs returned to his desk and contemted before giving Tessa a video call.


    “Hi, Nichs.” Tessa was wearing pajamas on the screen, and the smile on her face was stunning and


    alluring.


    Due to the time difference, it was already night time in Vienna.


    As he saw the smile on her face, Nichs couldn’t help but smile as well, saying gently, “What are you


    doing?”


    “I just washed up and am about to get into bed,” she answered truthfully and asked, “Where’s Greg?


    Why isn’t he with you?”


    For the past few days, when they were in a video call, Gregory would always be next to him, and she


    found it a little odd that he wasn’t there now.


    “He’s at home while I’m still in the office,” Nichs exined, smiling,


    “I see,” she uttered. “What time are you going home, then?” she asked.


    “I’ll be meeting a client with Hayley tonight, so I’ll be going hometer,” he said honestly. He didn’t want


    to hide this matter from her for some unknown reason.


    Tessa was quiet all of a sudden as she heard the news. “Just the both of you?” she asked, not realizing


    that she sounded a little jealous.
