Chapter 878 Did Not Have the Heart to Tell the Truth
“Don’t be sad, Wanda. I’ll take care of this.”
He comforted Wanda, saying with a dark look in his eyes, “Tomorrow, I’ll pay Remus a visit. I’ll make sure
he gives you a satisfactory answer.”
Hearing that her grandfather would be standing up for her, Wanda did not intend to stop him.
She felt that with the help of Remus, she might still have a chance to get married into the Sawyer Family
even if Nicholas didn’t like her.
As she thought that, she wrapped her arm around Horace’s arm and said in a spoiled manner, “I knew
you will always be there for me, Grandpa.”
Horace was glad as he promised her. “Don’t worry about this. I’ll definitely help you to deal with this
matter and make your dreams come true.”
Wanda nodded. Of course, she trusted her grandfather, but…
“Grandpa, when you visit Mr. Sawyer tomorrow, can you be a little nicer? I don’t want to give Nicholas
another reason to hate me.”
Seeing how careful his granddaughter was, Horace had a complicated expression in his eyes.
His granddaughter was really invested in Nicholas.

The next day, Horace went to the Sawyer Residence pretty early in the morning.
Remus was quite happy to see his good friend.
The two exchanged greetings, then went to the garden to play chess while they chatted.
As they did so, Horace turned the subject to Nicholas.
“I heard that Nicholas has this girl with him. Even though she’s overseas now, Nicholas claims that she’s
his girlfriend. What is going on?”
Remus was stunned for a moment, but he wasn’t surprised at all. He had even foreseen the arrival of
this day.
“Nicholas chose that girl of his own volition.”
He stopped hiding and explained briefly, “I never approved of this girl, but Nicholas insisted.”
Hearing that, Remus was very upset. He felt as if he had been cheated.
However, his granddaughter was so devoted to Nicholas, so he couldn’t say anything more. He could
only probe as he asked, “Nicholas insisted, but are you really going to accept this girl who popped out
from nowhere?”
Remus knew what his old friend was hinting at. He sighed in exasperation.
“This is no longer a matter I can intrude in.”
“You’re Nicholas’ grandfather; he shouldn’t be defying you.”
Horace’s tone was instantly filled with dissatisfaction.
Remus knew he wasn’t making sense, but he ignored it and explained, “You don’t understand Nicholas.
He hates anyone meddling in his affairs. So, even as his grandfather, I cannot interfere in his
relationships.”
Horace frowned deeply, reluctant to give up.
Be it familial background or capability, Nicholas was deserving of his granddaughter. Most importantly,
his granddaughter also loved this man.
Also, he had promised his granddaughter that he would make her dreams come true, so how could he
leave just like that?
“So, you mean that the marriage between our families is now canceled?”
He looked at Remus, refusing to back off.
Remus sighed. “I know what you mean, but I’ve already tried it before. Also, that girl is pregnant now, so
I can’t just ask her to get rid of the child, can I? That child belongs to the Sawyer Family!”
Stunned, Horace fell silent as well.

If it were so, then he could understand how his old friend felt.
But what about his granddaughter?
Meanwhile, ever since Wanda knew that her grandfather had gone to the Sawyer Residence, she was no
longer in the mood for work.
In the end, she stayed behind at home and waited for her grandfather’s return.
However, as the seconds ticked on, she felt even more anxious. She didn’t know if Horace managed to
convince Remus.
Later in the day, she saw her grandfather coming back, so she instantly got up from the couch and
walked up to him in anticipation. “Grandpa, what did Mr. Sawyer say?”
Seeing his granddaughter’s expectant gaze, Horace suddenly didn’t know have the heart to tell her the
truth.
He feared that it would break his granddaughter’s heart.
However, he still had to come clean.
“Remus couldn’t force Nicholas to do anything. Also, that girl Tessa is already pregnant with Nicholas’
child.”
