That Can Be Arranged

Chapter 197

It was not as if Tessa did not want to reach out to Nicholas for help as she knew full well that this should not be much of a problem for him.

However, thinking back on what she said to him, coupled with her multiple rejections to meet Gregory, Tessa would feel utterly embarrassed if she were to go looking for help from Nicholas.

Only able to worry needlessly from the sidelines yet unable to help made Tessa feel down.

If she was a bit more capable, her brother would not have to run around looking for ways to solve this problem whilst being rejected all the way.

“President Sawyer.”

At the Sawyer Group, seeing that Nicholas had reached the office, Edward greeted him with a serious expression, “I’ve found out the mastermind who has been messing with Timothy.” Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

Seldom seeing Edward being so serious made Nicholas realize that the other party might be a big shot. And so, Nicholas frowned as he stated, “Just tell me who it is.”

“It’s… Old Master Sawyer,” replied Edward.

Nicholas frowned upon hearing this. “Is there something wrong with your information? Why is he aiming at Timothy? It’s not like he knows the siblings, much less has any grudge against them.”

“I still don’t know the exact reason, as I’m still following up on the case as well. At first I did not believe it either, but after sending people to investigate that organization and confirming it myself time and time again, it really was all Old Master Sawyer’s doing.” Edward said with a serious expression.

Nicholas rubbed his temples. For the life of him, he could not figure out his grandfather’s intentions, as the elderly man had already mostly washed his hands of the group and has been rearing birds and living the good life ever since.

However, Nicholas did notice Remus’ actions being out of the ordinary these few days. It looked like the latter was preparing for something.

Firstly, he was pushing Nicholas to get married and now, he was secretly stopping Timothy from opening his company.

Although these two things seemed completely unrelated, it was precisely because of that that it seemed extra suspicious.

Not knowing Remus’ thoughts, Nicholas did not know what his grandfather was really up to.

However, if one were to think from another standpoint, even though Remus had already retired, he still had a deep and long reaching influence in the city, to the point where even Nicholas and the rest didn’t know how deep it went.

The old master’s every move always carried a certain meaning to it. Yet, it was not something that the group of juniors could just simply guess at.

Seeing Nicholas furrow his eyebrows tightly, looking as if he could not grasp the old master’s intentions, Edward then proceeded to ask, “How about we just ask him directly, President Sawyer?”

Nicholas only replied, “There’s no need. He might not admit to it even if we ask him. Just keep an eye out on Grandpa’s action and report it to me as you see fit.”

“Yes, President Sawyer.” Edward then nodded.

“Also, go approve Timothy’s company’s operating license;” Nicholas ordered, to which Edward answered, “Yes, President Sawyer. I’ll see to it now.”

That afternoon, Timothy, who was still running around because of the licensing issue, suddenly received a call from the licensing organization.

Shocked, Timothy then immediately picked it up. “Hello?”

“Hello, is this Mr. Timothy Reinhart? The operating license for your company has been approved. If you have the time, please come over to take it.”

“Thank you!” After hanging up, Timothy still hadn’t recovered from the news.

Seeing him standing there in a daze made a curious Henry tap on Timothy’s shoulder. “What’s wrong, Tim? Did something happen?”

Snapping back to reality, Timothy laughed. “It was from the organization. They said

they approved the license and wanted me to go get it.”

“Are you serious? I’m not dreaming, am I? Pinch me!” Henry said in disbelief.

Finding this humorous, Timothy responded, “It’s real.”

After their quick celebration, Henry asked in confusion, “But, it all seems so strange. The licensing that did not get approved no matter what suddenly went through, even though we did not find anyone with the proper connections?”

After a brief moment of silence, Timothy answered, “I think Master Kieran might have helped us behind the scenes.”

“That makes sense. After he solved that problem for us yesterday, maybe he knew about our other troubles as well and helped us out too. What a great guy!”

Believing that Kieran might have helped them out, Henry now looked at Kieran in a much more respectable light.
