Chapter 1106 Investigation
“Mr. Sawyer went to the concert too?” Wanda was perplexed. I thought Mr. Sawyer hated
Tessa, that b*tch! Why was he there too?
Naturally, Remus had an insight into what was going on in her head. As such, he glared at
the busybody Kieran before answering, “Hmm, I did. It was great.”
“Grandpa, it was not great—it was awesome! Mommy’s the best!” corrected Gregory
before he started to shower praises upon Tessa. As her number one fan, he was extremely
displeased by Remus’ comment.
In his brisk voice, he was so generous with his compliments that everyone except for
Wanda in the room burst into laughter. Although Tessa was shy about the sudden praises,
she was genuinely touched.
At the sight of the guffawing people who were proud of Tessa, Wanda’s expression turned
to an upset one.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYet, Tessa did not take it personally. She figured that it was merely the Sawyers’ way of
protecting her dignity in front of an outsider. Nevertheless, she was elated on the inside.
At the very least, the elders of the Sawyer Family were willing to consider her situation,
which felt like a sense of acknowledgment to her.
It was not until then that Horace sized Tessa up. He did notice her before, but he was
unbothered by her presence. However, it seemed like he should take note of her, judging
from the Sawyers’ attitude. Aside from her family background, it was undeniable that
Tessa did not pale in comparison to his granddaughter.
The glint in his eyes flickered when he thought of Wanda. Subsequently, he spoke to
Nicholas gently, “You’ve found yourself a good partner.”
“I second that. Tessa’s wonderful.” Nicholas was not humble in the slightest as he saw eye
to eye with Horace on that.
At that moment, Wanda did not have the strength to stretch a smile anymore. It was not
only Nicholas’ words, but it was because of her grandfather’s attitude that played a
dominant reason.
As the night progressed, Wanda and Horace decided to leave since it was getting late.
Noticing her bad mood on their return trip home, he sighed and advised, “I know how you
feel, but it’s best you give up on Nicholas. He’s going to welcome his second child soon
and they’re already a family. You’re Wanda Muller. Whether it’s for your reputation or
whatnot, you are not allowed to ruin a family.” His voice turned sharp at the end of the
sentence.
She pursed her lips before nodding sadly. “I understand.”
Still, unlike what she had promised, she had not given up yet. She knew that she should
rein back those ideas in front of him. Otherwise, he might force her to leave the country
just to stop her from doing anything.
Oblivious to her thoughts, Horace was in pain to see Wanda down in the dumps. “Cheer
up. I’ll introduce you to someone better than him.”
He patted her shoulder in an attempt to comfort her, but she merely forced a smile in

want him. I only want Nicholas!
When they arrived home, a tired Horace went straight to his room after informing Wanda.
She headed to her room and reminisced about what happened today. The more she
thought about it, the more upset she became. In particular, she was curious as to why
Tessa had returned to the country.
In the end, she decided to give her assistant a call. “Find out why Tessa Reinhart is back in
the country. I need to know by tomorrow morning.”
“Understood,” replied the assistant before hanging up the phone.
…The next day, Wanda had breakfast with Horace before she went to work. Not long after
she entered her office, her assistant knocked on the door for a report. “Miss Muller, I’ve
got to the bottom of it.”
“Tell me. What happened?” Wanda looked straight into the assistant’s eyes.
Her assistant nodded before recounting her discovery.
