Tessa was observant, and she could tell the importance of this project to her brother from his body
language. If not, the leader of the Sawyer Group would never waste his time listening to a babbling
student that hadn’t even graduated. Therefore, the project was probably already set.
Right then, Timothy hesitated before his once confident hands slowly lowered themselves under the
table before intertwining them together, expressing his uncertainty.
“Can I send someone else to go? Henry is one of the creators of the software, and he knows
everything that I know as well.”
Although Timothy usually looked fine and could talk smoothly, he tended to feel uneasy when he was
with strangers. His emotions were mainly due to an inferiority complex from his slight disability.
Although Timothy got better now, he was still wary of other people’s gazes as well as their quiet
chatters.
Nevertheless, Tessa had been hoping that Timothy would take a step forward all along, so she grabbed
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthis hands that were under the table. “Since President Sawyer really values you, why don’t you try to do
it? You can just do it like how you did just now.”
After the reason behind Timothy’s hesitation, Henry tried to persuade him as well. “Timothy, I believe
that you can do it. Although the two of us developed this software, you know way more about it than 1
do. Besides, you know that I’ll have stage fright when I’m in front of many people. I really can’t do this,
so you’ll have to do it.”
Since everyone tried to persuade him, Timothy had no choice but to nod his head. “I… I’ll go, then. I’ll
do my best.”
After everything was settled, Nicholas reached out for a handshake. “I hope that we can have a
pleasant cooperation.”
Slightly stunned, Timothy quickly came back to his senses to shake Nicholas’s hand. “Same goes.”
He looked high-spirited, and the upset look he had previously when he was in trouble had disappeared.
Right then, Timothy looked even more confident than before.
After they finished their meeting, Nicholas nodded at Timothy and Henry. He was planning to leave, so
the two young university students sent him off to the entrance. “Have a safe drive, President Sawyer.”
However, Nicholas turned around and gave Tessa a look after taking a few steps forward. “Are you
staying with your brother or going back with me?”
At the moment, Tessa was slightly taken aback before she asked curiously, “Aren’t you going back to
your company?”
Nonetheless, Nicholas tapped at his expensive wristwatch before saying, “I don’t have to go back since
my working hour is almost over.”
Since she’d still have to return, she would have to take a cab if she wasn’t planning to leave with
Nicholas. As that would be more of a hassle, so it’d be better if she took the free ride with Nicholas, so
she nodded. “Let’s head back together.”
However, Timothy was shocked when he saw Tessa leaving with Nicholas willingly. “T-Tessa, why are
you leaving with President Sawyer? How well do you know each other?”
He had been wanting to ask this question ever since Nicholas showed up to help them out previously,
and he couldn’t contain his curiosity when he witnessed it again today.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt this moment, Tessa finally thought of explaining herself. “Didn’t I tell you that I’ve gotten myself a
freelancing job to teach a kid violin? That kid is President Sawyer’s son, so he’s my superior now.”
“I see!” Timothy looked enlightened before he turned toward Nicholas and exclaimed, “Please take care
of my sister, President Sawyer! Have a safe journey!”
Tessa nodded and reminded him of the things he needed to take note of before leaving. On the way
back, she sat at the back of the car together with Nicholas.
As the space at the back of the car was narrow, the two of them sat really close to each other, and they
could feel each other’s breath if they turned around.
Right then, Tessa felt uneasy before scooting closer to the window so that she could distance herself
from Nicholas.
Nevertheless, Nicholas didn’t notice her action as he was leaning back on his seat lazily and had
already lost his strong and calm facade during the meeting just now.
He also lost the intimidating aura that he had when he was facing Amber and Sophia.
At this moment, Nicholas looked casual and free.
After hesitating for a moment, Tessa spoke up. “Nicholas, thank you for helping us out today. Also,
thank you for guiding Timothy.”
