    She didn’t want to drag him down.


    Tessa didn’t say that out loud, of course. Nichs went to work after she agreed to the arrangements.


    Not too long after he reached the office, Edward came to report about work. Nichs spent a few


    minutes delegating all the work for the day.


    Reminded of the events in Filisburg, he frowned. “How is the negotiation with Filisburg?”


    “We’re still in the middle of it,” answered Edward.

    Nichs’ face fell. “It’s been two days, but you still have nothing to show for it? What’s taking them so


    long?”


    “Adam and Joseph refuse to hand over the ledgers,” said Edward, and then he told


    Nichs what his men were facing.


    Nichs’ face was as ck as thunder and he exuded an intimidating aura.


    Noticing the tension rising in the air, Edward tensed up. He looked at Nichs carefully and gulped.


    “Maybe I should tell someone to look into the reason they’re refusing to work with us.”


    “No. There’s only one reason for that. They don’t want us to find out about their monkey business,”

    Nichs sneered again, then he said, “And they must have lost a lot of money. More than our estimate,


    even. That’s why they took this risk.”


    “They lost more than what we anticipated? That’s… brazen.” Edward was shocked.


    They really shouldn’t try to challenge Mr. Sawyer any further.


    Nichs narrowed his eyes, cold fury glinting within them. After a while, he came to a decision. “Tell


    your men to keep liaising with them, but dispatch another team to secretly look into the details of their


    transaction. Don’t let them find out.”


    “Understood.” Edward nodded and left.


    For a few days after that, the tension that hung in the air of thepany seemed to have disappeared.


    The management who had been waiting tensely for Nichs’ punishment took notice of theck of


    yelling. Eventually, thinking that this matter had blown over, some people were starting to rx.
