Chapter 406 Let Me Have Control of My Own Life
“Fine. Remember what you’ve just said. If I find out that you’ve lied to us, I’m gonna break your f*cking leg!”
The Sawyers were looking for Nicholas, and so was Hayley, who couldn’t accept being treated like this by Nicholas and wanted an explanation from him. Am I that bad that he’d rather resign as president of the Sawyer Group than marry me? She had his whereabouts investigated for a few days. However, the investigation yielded no results—or rather, Nicholas had concealed his whereabouts in advance, having predicted long ago that his family wouldn’t give up after he left.
After ending her phone conversation with her assistant, who had called to report to her on the progress of the investigation, Hayley clutched her phone tightly with a dark expression. Clenching her teeth, she mumbled bitterly, “Seems like no one can force this guy into doing what he doesn’t want to do.”
On the other hand, Remus had been discharged from the hospital several days earlier. He had had Nicholas’ whereabouts looked into and tried to contact him all this while, but he had been unable to reach him. He knew that he had been blocked on Nicholas’ phone.
The atmosphere in the Sawyer Residence was tense over the next few days.
Seeing how sullen Remus looked, Andrew reminded him, saying, “Do you think Master Nicholas would take Young Master Gregory to Miss Reinhart’s place?”

Remus narrowed his eyes. “I’d thought about this at first, but there was no news from there. And besides, Nicholas can’t possibly have gone there.”
Upon hearing this, Andrew pondered for a moment and realized what Remus meant. If Master Nicholas had gone to Miss Reinhart at this time, he’d undoubtedly cause her trouble, he thought.
When Remus finished having dinner afterward, he took out his cell phone and dialed Nicholas’ number again. To his surprise, he got through to Nicholas this time.
“Grandpa.” Nicholas’ chilly voice sounded through the phone.
Remus was stunned for a moment. The next instant, he flew into a rage, barking, “Where are you right now? Come back at once!”
“Have you agreed to my terms, then?”
“What terms?”
Compared with Remus, who was boiling with rage, Nicholas was calm, his voice imperturbable. “Let me have control of my own life.”
“Nicholas Sawyer, are you threatening me?” Remus exploded with rage. He reproached, “As the Sawyer Group’s heir, you have no freedom in life to begin with. You should’ve understood that the more you gain, the more you have to give up.”
The instant Remus said so, there was a brief silence on the other end of the line. A moment later, Nicholas’ cold voice rang again. “You’re right, Grandpa. That’s why I’ve now resigned from my position as president to be able to do whatever I want to do.”
