Always Been Yours

Chapter 97

Noticing her grandmother’s frustration, Sophia quickly served Amber a cup of tea and instilled hatred in her. “Calm down, Grandma. Tessa had it all planned when she sent Dad to jail, so it’s pretty obvious that she doesn’t want to save him, but I… I just feel sorry for the fact his daughter is so heartless and wicked. Thus, you must teach Tessa a lesson!”

When Amber heard what Sophia said, she grew even angrier. “Of course, I’m going to lecture her! That lady has to be humbled and taught a lesson the hard way! When I find her, I’ll be sure to rough her up!”

Sophia was happy at the sight of the old lady’s reaction but was aware that Nicholas could have Tessa’s back. Thus, she suggested an approach to Amber.

“But we can’t find Tessa as long as she doesn’t show up, Grandma. So, why don’t we go to the school and find Timothy instead?” A sinister look flashed across her eyes. “That guy is probably studying right now, so he can’t be going anywhere else. If we have him with us, Tessa will surely have no choice but to come and meet us.”

Upon hearing that, Amber stood up and urged Sophia to come with her. “What’re we waiting for, then? Let’s go! We’re going to get that bast*rd from the school now!”

Sophia shook her head rapidly and immediately left home with Amber. Soon, they both arrived at Southend University, whereupon Sophia took her grandmother straight into the institute to look for Timothy.

However, they were stopped by the security guard, who questioned their purpose of visit. “Excuse me, what’re you two doing here? No outsiders should be allowed to enter the school. Can’t you see the signboard right here?”

Frustrated with the hindrance, Amber lost her temper and berated the guard. “I’m a parent of a student who studies here, so why can’t I go in?”

The old lady’s tone sounded like she was there to stir up trouble with her granddaughter to the security guard, but instead of picking on them, he patiently explained the proper registration procedures to them. “Well, if you’re a parent, you should probably know the school rules. You need to enter from the front gate and register in the office before you’re given permission to enter.”

While Amber was about to lose her temper out of desperation, Sophia restrained her and tried to charm the guard with a smile that she narcissistically thought was pretty.

“Sir, we’re Timothy’s family. Today, his grandmother has come a long way to see him, and it wasn’t easy for an old lady to go through all the hassle and trouble to travel all the way here. So, can’t you just let us in?”

The security guard shook his head adamantly. “You could give him a call and tell him to come out, but we can’t let you in. I hope you can understand that.”

“But.” Sophia frowned because she didn’t have Timothy’s number. Even if she did, she couldn’t tell whether Timothy would block her number like Tessa did to Amber, which was why she was thinking of directly approaching him. Nonetheless, she didn’t expect her plan to be thwarted by the annoying security guard, but just when she was about to talk him into changing his mind, she caught a glimpse of Timothy from the corner of her eye.

At that moment, Timothy was on his way to meet Nicholas along with his best friend, Henry. In fact, Nicholas had told his assistant to contact Timothy after lunch that he wanted to meet him at a cafe near his school.

After all, Timothy almost recovered from his illness, on top of the fact Nicholas’s company was in search of a new project for more revenue. Most importantly, the annoying calls that Tessa’s phone had received earlier that morning alerted Nicholas about the possibility that Timothy might become a

target for the Reinharts. Thus, he quickly arranged a time to meet up with him but was unaware of Sophia and Amber’s simultaneous actions as well.

On the other hand, Timothy was too caught up in his conversation with Henry and failed to notice the two women’s presence.

At that moment, Henry agitatedly said, “If we can seal the deal later, our future is going to shine even brighter than the stars in the sky! Think about it. We’re going to be dealing with President Sawyer, the big shot from the Sawyer Group! He has 80% of all the connections in Southend and is the richest man in our country. Besides, his company is even among the top 100 global enterprises and has businesses spread across every part of the world. Man! Even the thought of talking with the likes of him makes me feel super nervous!”This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
