Hayley’s words got to Tobias, and he chuckled before saying, You really have a way with words. I don’t even feel angry anymore.” Then, he ordered, “Nicholas, I want you to send her back home.”

Listening to his orders, Nicholas furrowed his brows, showing his reluctance.

However, Hayley thanked him first. “Thank you, President Sawyer.”

As for Hayley, she was interested in Nicholas some years ago, but outside the friendship between Tobias and Maxwell, the two families didn’t have much connection.

Also, there were rumors that Nicholas didn’t plan to get married, so she decided to let it go.

When Tobias came to her, she immediately understood his intention. Seeing that he was quite satisfied with her today, she agreed to join them for dinner without hesitation.

Even though Nicholas had a child, Hayley didn’t see it as a bad thing since she didn’t want to give birth anyway, so it wasn’t out of the question for her to treat Gregory as one of her own.

Since she had agreed to accept a ride and it was only a short distance, Nicholas had nothing else to say. “Let’s go.”

“I heard that you’ve received several huge projects recently. You must be very busy.” After getting into the car, Hayley saw that Nicholas wasn’t talking to her, so she found a subject to talk about.

“Yes,” he replied curtly.

And so, she changed the subject. “What about Greg? The last time I saw him was at his birthday party. How has he been lately?”

Again, he replied, “Alright.”

Throughout the journey, Nicholas was basically silent as he only replied to Hayley’s questions with simple words, but she didn’t mind at all and kept on changing the subject with a faint smile on her face.

When the car stopped in front of the Stone Residence, Nicholas got straight to the point and said, “Miss Stone, I believe you know about my grandfather’s intention, but I’m not thinking about that at the moment. Besides, Greg doesn’t want a stranger to suddenly become his

mother. I hope that you don’t take this to heart.”

The smile on her lips faded a bit, but she still maintained a smile. “What if I actually take it to heart?” Upon hearing that, Nicholas didn’t answer her. However, Hayley continued, “Actually, you don’t need to be so cold toward me. If you want someone to marry you, I’m the best, and the only candidate. We are both children of elite families, and I have a clear understanding of the situation at every major family. I believe that you know what their twisted intentions are. I don’t know who Greg’s real mother is, but by the looks of it now, he doesn’t have a mother. What if your future wife gives birth to a child? What will happen to him? I believe that you’ve thought about this problem before. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be single for so many years. However, I’m different. I will treat him as if he is my own and give him the best care.”

“There’s no need for that,” Nicholas uttered coldly.

This was the first time Hayley had been rejected by someone, so she couldn’t help but feel a little hurt inside her heart. Even the smile on her lips had faded slightly.

However, the feeling also felt new to her.

She turned around and glanced at Nicholas’ exquisite face.

Every feature of his was permeated with fortitude and toughness, which made him very handsome. It also gave an intimidating feeling, as if he was a heavenly being, preventing others from getting close to him.

Because of Nicholas’ looks, it added another feeling to his cold words, giving others a sense of inferiority whenever they heard his voice. However, Hayley didn’t think that this was necessarily his fault.

It was an amazing feeling.

Not only did his cold words not make her retreat, but it aroused her desire to have him for herself.

Putting aside his words of refusal, even his perfunctory answers felt as though they were attracting her while she fell into a deep addiction.

Someday, I’ll be the woman standing beside him. Only I am worthy of standing next to him.

At that thought, Hayley suddenly giggled. “Master Nicholas, I’m not going to give up because of what you said. In my mind, there is no such thing as giving up. There is nothing in this world I want that I can’t get.”
