Your Love Drags Nicholas Down
The nervousness in Tessa alleviated after hearing Nicholas’ words, and she smiled at him, believing
there was nothing she needed to be afraid of with him by her side.
Of course, the couple’s interaction didn’t go unnoticed by the Sawyer elders.
Remus continued to pull a straight face, his mood indiscernible.
On the other hand, Tobias and Stefania gazed at Tessa with mixed emotions, for never in their lives
had they ever seen their eldest son this gentle.
Of course, Tessa was unaware of everything.
She stepped forward with Nicholas and greeted the Sawyer elders graciously, “Grandpa, Dad… Mom.”
Tobias nodded in response, still considerably amiable, but Stefania only looked impassively at the
gentle, gracious, and courteous young woman.
Remus, on the other hand, remained straight-faced and clearly upset.
Even so, Tessa still remained smiling as she hinted at Timothy, who got the cue and handed the gifts in
his hands to her.
Though Nicholas said he would prepare the gifts, Tessa thought it was still better that she prepared
them herself.
“I heard you like tea, Old Master Sawyer, so I deliberately collected a few types overseas. I hope you
like it.”
While speaking, Tessa pulled out an exquisitely packaged tea and presented it to Remus, who only
shot her an indifferent glance, showing no inclination to accept the gift.
Nicholas turned grim upon seeing so and shot a glance at Sebastian, who was standing aside.
Sebastian nodded and took the gift from Tessa, who glanced gratefully at Nicholas. After all, she would
certainly be stuck in an awkward situation if Remus kept ignoring her.
Likewise, Timothy wasn’t any happier about the situation either.
However, because it was within his expectations, he said nothing, intending to play the situation by ear.
Next, Tessa brought out Stefania’s gift.
Knowing Stefania’s love for the violin, Tessa gifted her a sheet music collection.
As for Tobias, Tessa gifted him a painting.
The gifts were all lots she managed to bid from the auction.
After handing out all the gifts, Tessa returned to Nicholas’ side.
Just then, Timothy stepped forward and introduced himself. “Good evening, Old Master Sawyer, Mr.
and Mrs. Sawyer. I’m Timothy and Tessa’s only living relative. Since our families are supposed to meet
today, I’ve invited myself over.”
Tobias and Stefania sized Timothy up upon hearing his words, somewhat surprised, for they could
sense that he was no average Joe from his speech, especially his neither overbearing nor servile gaze.
This girl does have a nice younger brother, the couple complimented.
On the other hand, Remus made no comments as he sized Timothy up, but he snorted when he shifted
his gaze to Tessa. “I didn’t realize you’re actually so scheming. What? Did you think you could marry
into the Sawyer Family just because you’re pregnant?”
Remus’ words undoubtedly upset Nicholas and Timothy, especially the former.
However, just as he wanted to retort his grandfather, Tessa stopped him.
As much as Remus’ words upset her as well, she knew this was her battle, and Remus would only
despise her even more if she let Nicholas shield her.
“I’m afraid you’ve mistaken me, Grandpa. I have no intentions of using the child in my belly to marry
into your family.” At that, Tessa fearlessly looked straight into Remus’ eyes and continued, “No doubt
many women hope to marry into your family, but not me. I have my dreams to pursue.”
“That’s what they all say. If you’re so different, then why are you here now?” Remus had no intention of
sparing Tessa any mercy, behaving aggressively.
However, it didn’t bother Tessa as she explained composedly, “No one can decide for themselves who
they fall in love with. I’m standing here because I love Nicholas.”
“Well, do you know your love will only drag Nicholas down?” Remus struck again, this time hitting
home. “Nicholas is the patriarch of the Sawyer Family. He needs a helpmate who can stand next to him
and provide him aid. What can you do for him?”
Tessa held her breath as her face turned a little pale, having difficulty answering Remus’ question for a
moment.
