"Has there been any news of Kieran?" Tessa asked with concern. "No," Nicholas replied
while shaking his head. Tessa couldn't help but feel her heart sink when she heard his
words. She figured that there wasn't much of a chance for Kieran to survive at that point.
Nicholas could sense her change in mood, so he reached over and wrapped his arms
around her before changing the topic. "Thank you for your hard work today. Mom seems a
little calmer now," he uttered before planting a kiss on Tessa's forehead. He knew how
hard it was for Tessa to care for both her kids and his mother all at once.
Tessa felt a warm sensation in her chest when she felt the man's kiss on her forehead. "It
wasn't hard at all. It's my duty as your wife to take care of household matters," she
replied. Then, she leaned in and hugged his waist before rubbing her face against his firm
chest. Nicholas no longer said anything after that—he simply held her in his arms while
sitting in silence. The housekeeper noticed that they were having a moment, so he chased
the rest of the maids out of the living room.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLater that night, the housekeeper rushed over just before Nicholas and Tessa were about
to head upstairs to bed. "Master Nicholas, Young Madam, Mr. Reinhart is here with Miss
Gulliver," the housekeeper announced.
"What are they doing here at this hour?" Tessa was rather shocked, but she told the
housekeeper to let them in. "Tessa, Nicholas," Timothy greeted as he stepped in. "Miss
Tessa, President Sawyer," Sabrina greeted them as well.
Tessa nodded before urging them to take a seat. "Did you come from the office? Are you
hungry? I can get the kitchen to prepare some supper," Tessa offered. "It's fine. We had
something to eat while we stayed back at work earlier," Timothy replied as he held his
hand up to reject his sister's offer.
Tessa nodded. "Well, in that case, what brings you two here at this hour? Is anything the
matter?" she asked.
Timothy and Sabrina exchanged glances and hesitated for a while before Sabrina spoke
up. "Well, you just recovered a while ago, and there seems to be a lot going on now. It
seems like there are a lot of people visiting the house every day as well. So, I figured I
could drop by to help you take care of things a little," Sabrina offered. Tessa was
extremely grateful to hear this, and she didn't reject their offer this time.
In the next few days, people from the Sawyer Family gradually began to accept the news
of Kieran's death. When Nicholas decided that the time was right, he called for Edward to
enter his office. "You may ask the PR department to release a statement. The Sawyer
Family will start preparing for Kieran's funeral in a few days," he announced.
"Got it," Edward replied. Soon enough, the news was released on Sawyer Family's official
website. Many of the netizens and Kieran's fans wailed in agony after seeing the news.
Kieran's fans, in particular, struggled to contain their emotions after they heard the news.
Some of them left comments saying that they wanted to be present at the funeral.
'Please let me send my darling off,' one comment wrote.
'Are we allowed to go in? I'd like to bid my hubby goodbye.'
'Yeah. I wouldn't mind just standing at the entrance.'
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNicholas ignored all of these comments. The news that he had released was just a
smokescreen, after all. Later that night, Edward returned to Nicholas' office again. "We just
received some news, President Sawyer. We've found the security guard who previously
escaped."
"Where did you find him?" Nicholas put his work down to look at Edward.
"We found him in his own place up in the hills. Fortunately, our men were cautious enough
to track this security guard's whereabouts without being tricked by the other fake news
that he put out there," Edward replied.
"I'm glad you caught him. Did you manage to find out who's the mastermind?" Nicholas
didn't care about how they found the security guard—what he wanted to know was
whether they could find the person who was in charge of all of this.
Edward understood Nicholas' intentions, so he nodded and responded, "We've asked the
security guard about it, but he has never met the person behind this. He claimed that he's
willing to step forward as a witness when needed," Edward explained.
Nicholas wasn't too pleased by this answer, but he didn't comment much on it. After all, it
was expected for those two people to act without leaving any traces behind. "Well, in that
case, please keep an eye on the security guard."
"I've already sent out the orders," Edward replied with a nod.
