Chapter 416


    Chapter 416 You’ll See


    “You’ll see whether I can do it or not.” Hayley stared at Tessa sullenly with venomous eyes.


    Tessa shuddered involuntarily. Inwardly, she was somewhat scared, but she put on a brave front by


    standing up and looking down at Hayley. She replied with a sneer, “Miss Stone, it seems that you’re


    mistaken about one thing. You’re neither Nichs’ elder nor a person of consequence to him. The


    matter between Nichs and me is none of your business. Do you think you can get Nichs to be


    with you by threatening me? On the contrary, you’ve only made me feel that you’re a bad loser. So


    much for the upbringing of a socialite from a respectable family, huh?” With that, she turned around and


    left right away.


    Watching Tessa’s figure disappear from the private room, Hayley got so furious that she overturned the


    table right away. “I’ll never let you off, you b*tch!” Her angry voice sounded from inside the private


    room, apanied by the sound of ss shattering.


    Tessa paused in her tracks for a moment before continuing to leave without looking back. After


    returning to the orchestra, she changed into the spare clothes she had kept there and went back to the


    practice room. However, it was obvious that she wasn’t in a good mood, so much so that she kept


    making mistakes while ying the violin during the afternoon training session.


    Hathaway stopped Tessa’s performance with a frown. “What’s wrong with you, Tessa? You’re so not


    yourself today. Are you feeling unwell?”


    Since it was something personal, Tessa didn’t want to talk about it. Therefore, she nodded and


    admitted, “Yeah, I’m feeling a little out of sorts.”


    “In that case, I’ll give you half a day off. Go home and rest.” Hathaway didn’t think much about it.


    Instead, she asked with concern, “Do you need me to send you to the hospital?”


    “No, I don’t have to take a day off. I’m not feeling that unwell.” Tessa didn’t want to go back right now.


    She knew very well that if she were to go home in her present mood, Nichs would easily notice that


    something was wrong. “I’m fine, Miss Hathaway. Let’s continue.” With that, she took a deep breath,


    pulled herself together, and continued her practice.


    Unable to dissuade her, Hathaway had no choice but to agree to it.


    Meanwhile, Nichs took Gregory back to the vi; he had made preparations for Remus to be sent


    back to the country.


    Upon seeing Nichs, Remus let out a snort and pretended not to see him. It could be said that his trip


    to Vienna was in vain, but he could do nothing about it. Not only was Nichs determined not to marry


    Hayley, but he even threatened to rejoin the army.


    Noticing that Remus seemed to be angry with Nichs, Gregory got close to him and acted cute like a


    spoiled child in every way possible. “Don’t be angry, Great-Grandpa. Uncle Kieran said that being


    angry will cause wrinkles to form on your face. You have enough wrinkles already, Great-Grandpa. If


    you get even more wrinkles, you’ll look even less handsome.”


    Seeing how the little boy appeased him with a straight face, Remus didn’t know whether tough or to


    frown. Nevertheless, a smile appeared on his face.


    Nichs threw his son amending look.


    A whileter, Nichs sent Remus to the airport.


    Before boarding the ne, Remus looked at his most outstanding grandson beside him. He said


    gloomily, “The Stones have proposed that your engagement to their daughter be called off. Since


    you’re determined not to marry her, let’s forget about it. I don’t want to force you into it.”


    Upon hearing his words, Nichs replied icily, “Even if you force me into marrying her, I’m not gonna


    be willing to do so.”


    Speechless, Remus shot Nichs an angry re, but he said nothing in the end. He asked with a soft


    snort, “Now that I’m not forcing you anymore, when are you gonna go back?”


    Nichs didn’t give him a specific time, though. “We’ll see.”


    Remus was vexed at his response. Looking daggers at him, he warned, “If you don’t want toe


    back, I’m not gonna force you to do so. But don’t you dare rejoin the army!”

    Nichs didn’t really take Remus’ words to heart. “I got it. It’s almost time for the flight to take off.


    Andrew, please take good care of Grandpa along the way,” he said to Andrew. “Remember to give me


    a call after the flight touches down.”


    “Please rest assured, Master Nichs,” Andrew replied with a nod.


    Nichs watched Remus disappear into the crowd before turning around to leave the airport. After


    getting into the car, he massaged the space between his eyebrows wearily. Remus seemed to have


    given in at the moment, but he had predicted this long ago.
