Chapter 415 The Consequences of Provoking Her Tessa was only telling the truth in a calm manner, but Hayley felt that she was showing off in front of her.
Gnashing her teeth in anger, she added resentfully, “You probably don’t know this yet, but Nicholas has
fallen out with Old Master Sawyer. Old Master Sawyer got so angry because of this that he was
hospitalized several times.”
Tessa pursed her lips in silence. Indeed, she didn’t know these things since Nicholas had never told her
about them.
Hayley’s eyes flickered briefly when she saw that Tessa was silent. She continued, “You should’ve known
that with Nicholas’ social status, his future wife has to be someone extraordinary. You’re not good
enough for him at all in terms of social status and family background. If you insist on being with him,
you’ll only be a drag and an obstacle to him in the future!”
Tessa’s face fell little by little as she listened to Hayley’s words.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing Tessa’s expression, Hayley was inwardly delighted. She continued with a sneer, “If you don’t
agree with what I said just now, let me put it in another way. If the Sawyer Group runs into a crisis, what
can you do for Nicholas? I’m telling you, you can do nothing other than watch helplessly.”
Tessa fell silent with a look of embarrassment, for she knew that what Hayley said was true. Indeed, she
couldn’t be of help to Nicholas at the moment, but inwardly, she didn’t want to be deflated by Hayley.
Taking a deep breath, she straightened her back, met Hayley’s gaze, and replied in an indescribably
uncompromising tone, “It’s undeniable that the current me is of no help to Nicholas, but I believe in his
capabilities. He’ll never let the Sawyer Group fall into crisis, so your hypothesis doesn’t stand up at all.”
Hayley was rendered speechless; she never thought Tessa would refute her in such a firm attitude. She
retorted defiantly, “Everything in the world is unpredictable. And besides, the business world is like the
battlefield, where everything is subject to change. Can you guarantee that Nicholas will always make the
best decisions?”
“I just told you the answer. I believe in Nicholas, so you’d better stop talking about such a meaningless
topic,” Tessa said, rendering Hayley speechless once again. Seeing how Hayley almost exploded with
rage, she lowered her eyes and added impassively, “As for your accusation that I’m an obstacle to
Nicholas, I don’t agree with that, Miss Stone. I’ll never be a drag on him by being with him. On the
contrary, I’ll be the motivation for him to keep moving forward.”
Hayley was pissed off by Tessa’s words. Is this b*tch showing off in front of me?
Just then, Tessa’s voice rang in her ear again. “Miss Stone, I know you can’t resign yourself to the fact
that Nicholas is in love with me, but if you really had the ability to make him stay with you, you wouldn’t
have gone out of your way here to say these things in front of me. So, by coming to me, you’ve lost to
me completely.”
“Shut up!” Hayley barked in a harsh voice. Exasperated, she picked up the cup of coffee on the table and
splashed it onto Tessa right away. I’m Stone Enterprise’s heiress! How can I possibly lose to Tessa, who
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmis inferior to me in every regard?!
All of this happened so quickly that Tessa had coffee splashed all over her before she could respond. As
she looked at the stains on her clothes, her face darkened all at once. She warned angrily, “Don’t go too
far, Miss Stone.”
“I’m going too far? I’m telling you, if you don’t leave Nicholas, I can go even further than this!” Seeing that
Tessa had stubbornly refused to leave Nicholas, Hayley revealed her true colors. With a sinister look in
her eyes, she said, “Nicholas Sawyer is the man I fancy, and I’ll never allow him to marry any woman
other than me. Here’s my advice: leave Nicholas and disappear from our sights, or you’ll bear the
consequences of provoking me.”
Unsurprisingly, Tessa’s face became as black as thunder when she heard this. At this moment, she
suddenly recalled how Remus had previously intimidated her into going abroad in the same way. As a
feeling of humiliation spread through her, she gritted her teeth and answered back, “Miss Stone, I admit
that you do have a prominent family background, or I wouldn’t have been targeted by you guys and
forced into going abroad back then. But wouldn’t it be too naive of you to think of resorting to old tactics
now? This is a foreign country. Can you do whatever you want here?”
