Chapter 941 Wanda’s Agenda
How is it that we’re talking about my marriage now?! At that, Kieran hurriedly turned his
grandfather down. “Grandpa, I think it’s still a few years too early for me. We can talk
about this much later.”
Seeing how resistant the young man was about this topic, Remus didn’t press on but
reprimanded gravely, “I can allow you to marry a few years later, but your wife has to be
of our social status!”
Keiran suddenly thought his future was bleak after hearing his grandfather’s words. It
seemed that Nicholas and Tessa’s marriage gave Remus a pretty deadly blow.
“Grandpa, you can’t force love, can you? Let’s not set our standards so high.” He couldn’t
help speaking up for himself.
“That’s my standard; no negotiations. I may not be able to do anything about your
brother, but I can still deal with you if you dare to be as wilful as him!” threatened Remus
with a snort.
Keiran swore his future was seriously bleak.
To make things worse, Stefania nodded in agreement. “Your grandfather’s right. I will find
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou a proper match. I can’t have you ending up like your brother.”
Kieran felt super miserable when he saw how serious his mother was being. Still, he dared
not say another word and didn’t want to stay around a second longer, even more so after
dinner as he scurried away with a random excuse.
On the other side of the town, Wanda had been waiting for Nicholas’ return as she knew
his birthday was just around the corner.
However, news of his return never came even after days of having people keeping an eye
on it.
“Are there any movements from the Sawyers? Did they hand out invitations or prepare for
a banquet?” she asked her assistant with furrowed brows.
“Nothing of the sort at all,” answered the assistant honestly while he shook his head.
“That can’t be right!” The unusualness baffled Wanda. Is Nicholas not planning on
celebrating his birthday in Xerthania?
At that, her heart sank, and she planned to take a trip to Sawyer Residence sometime
soon to ask Remus what was up.
…
The following evening, Wanda came to the Sawyer Residence bearing gifts.
Naturally, Remus was happy to see her. “What brings you here today, dear?”
“Well, I realized it’s been a while since I last visited you, and I happened to be free this
evening. So here I am,” Wanda answered sweetly, leading Remus to nod and praise,
“That’s sweet of you. How’s the company coming along? Are you facing any difficulties?”
“There were a few minor issues, but I’ve asked Kieran about them, and they have all been
settled.”
Wanda had deliberately said so, for she wanted to use Kieran as a channel to divert the
topic to Nicholas.
Thus, after praising Kieran, she immediately inquired, “Kieran told me Nicholas’ birthday is
coming up, but I noticed that he still hasn’t returned after all these days. Is he not
intending to come back and celebrate his birthday?”
A shrewd one, how could Remus not get Wanda’s agenda at this point? Mixed feelings
crept up on him, for he was surprised that this young woman still hadn’t given up on
wanting to marry Nicholas even after knowing of Tessa’s existence.
“He plans on celebrating it with that woman in Vienna.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter saying so, his eyes twinkled.
Though things had set in stone and he couldn’t do anything about it, he wouldn’t stop the
woman from trying to woo Nicholas either if she wouldn’t give up. After all, he still hoped
that Nicholas’ wife was of their social status.
Wanda might not know what Remus was thinking, but she could tell the displeasure he
had for Tessa, and she rejoiced.
“How insensitive of Miss Reinhart. First, she took Gregory to Vienna with her, and now
even Nicholas is staying there with her. How can she not consider her elders’ feelings?!”
While speaking, she scrutinized Remus’ expressions. Though the elder said nothing, his
frown and the displeasure beneath his eyes said it all.
Feeling motivated, she continued gibbing Tessa, “Sure, I get that Miss Reinhart and
Nicholas are in love. However, she shouldn’t have Nicholas stay abroad forever. Nicholas,
too—he sure has spoiled Miss Reinhart rotten. He was never like this.”
It was evident that she was implying Tessa was a bad influence on Nicholas.
Having been influenced by Wanda’s words, Remus’ displeasure toward Tessa deepened
just like that.
