Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas)

Chapter 407

Chapter 407 Calling off the Engagement
Upon hearing Kieran’s words, Remus fell silent. I thought that everything I’d done was for Nicholas’ own good, but could the current situation really have been my fault?
Seeing that Remus seemed to have listened to his words, Kieran tried to persuade him further. However, before he could speak, Remus chased him out of the ward with a wave of his hand. “I want to have some time alone. Get out of the room, all of you; Andrew, you may stay.”
Kieran and his parents were worried about Remus, but they could only leave the ward as they were unable to dissuade Remus. Before they left, they didn’t forget to ask Andrew to take good care of Remus.
With that, silence filled the ward at once. After a long time, Remus’ frail voice rang in the room. “Am I really wrong?” he said as if mumbling to himself or asking Andrew.
Seeing how Remus looked, Andrew stood aside and persuaded him, saying, “Old Master Sawyer, I’d say we should let the younger generation carve out their own path in life. Maybe Master Nicholas did something so extreme because he really had been pushed too hard.”

Upon hearing this, Remus closed his eyes without saying a word.
Seeing Remus’ response, Andrew loyally stayed by his sickbed without saying another word.
Meanwhile, Kieran was stopped and interrogated by his parents again in the hallway. “Kieran, do you really have no idea where your brother’s been?” Stefania looked at Kieran skeptically.
Standing beside her was Tobias, who fixed Kieran with a warning glare.
Kieran felt a headache coming on when he saw his parents like this. “Dad, Mom, like I said, I don’t know where Nicholas is. Why wouldn’t you believe me?”
“You don’t know where he is? If you don’t know where he is, why were you speaking for him just now?” Stefania didn’t believe at all that Kieran didn’t know Nicholas’ whereabouts. “I’m telling you, either you go and bring Nicholas back at once, or you don’t come back anymore.”
Speechless, Kieran was both upset and aggrieved. Why am I always the one who suffers for the trouble Nicholas has caused? he thought. Still, he gritted his teeth and insisted, “Like I said, I don’t know where Nicholas is, so where am I supposed to look for him? Ah, never mind. If you can’t stand the sight of me at home, just chase me out so that I don’t have to manage the company’s affairs anymore,” he said in a fit of desperation. In any case, I can’t betray Nicholas no matter what.
Stefania was rendered speechless with anger by his flippant tone of voice. “How dare you—”
Tobias wished he could beat up this son of his, too.
Just then, however, Hayley’s gentle voice rang behind them. “Mr. Sawyer, Mrs. Sawyer, Kieran, why are you guys standing outside the ward?”
