Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 1024

“I don’t care whether it’s up to you or not. This is your problem, so you have to take care of it on your own.”

Susan seemed unwilling to let Eunice go and laughed lightly. “In any case, you can choose between losing your reputation or protecting me.”

“Are you threatening me?” Eunice exploded with anger as she glared daggers at Susan with her pretty eyes.

However, Susan was unfazed. She settled into a comfortable position at the head of the bed and said, “Think what you want. I only look at the results anyway.”

In the end, Eunice had no choice but to hold in her anger and leave the ward.

She left the hospital with an unpleasant look on her face. Whenever she thought of Susan’s threatening words in the ward earlier, she felt as if she was about to explode. In all her life, she had never been threatened like this before.

“B*stards, all of them!”

She kicked the car door, venting her anger. All around her, people were frightened by her vicious expression and steered clear of her.

After her outburst, Eunice gradually calmed down, but her face was still glum. Susan had exceeded her expectations, and wasn’t a simple opponent at all. A moment of contemplation later, she drove away from the hospital.

Meanwhile, in the detention center, Edward was talking to the stage operator.

“Our president said that as long as you tell us who the mastermind is, we can get you out. If not, prepare to stay here for the rest of your life.”

Hearing this, the stage operator felt a sudden pang of fear, but remained silent.

At the sight, Edward seemed to recall something and sneered with narrowed eyes. “What, do you think that person behind you can get you out? Stop being delusional, my friend. As long as our president gives the order, no one would dare to let you out!”

“Impossible! She said that she will bail me out!”

The stage operator finally responded, but after he finished speaking, he immediately regretted it. He had shown his hand.

As if he did not see the chagrin on his face, Edward curled his lips and continued to tantalize him. “We can wait and see if she would, but let me remind you that you only have this one chance to save yourself. Think about it; do you want to spend the rest of your life in a cell, or do you want to take the chance to leave and start over?”

After giving it some thought, Nicholas waved his hand and said, “Leave the rest to me. You can get back to your work.”

In any case, this matter was related to Tessa’s future connections in the orchestra, so he had to deal with it properly.

Once Edward left, he pondered for a moment and picked up the phone on his desk and made an appointment to meet Sofia. Later in the evening, the two met at a cafe.

When Sofia saw him, she got to the point. “Earlier on the phone, you said you found out who the mastermind is, Mr. Sawyer.”

“It’s your second apprentice, Eunice,” Nicholas spat, his tone as cold as frost.

“Impossible!” Shocked, Sofia subconsciously retorted, not believing that her student would do such a vicious thing.

Nicholas was not surprised by her behavior and sneered. “Why is it impossible? How well do you know this student of yours?”
