Chapter 198
Somewhat worshippingly, Henry murmured, “He really is someone with power and authority. He does things so cleanly and so efficiently.”
Timothy also laughed. “Alright, I’m off to get that license. I want to get the company up and running as soon as possible.”
After getting the license, Timothy thought that since Kieran helped him out, it would be impolite of him to just accept it as is. And so, he decided that no matter what, he had to treat Kieran to a meal.
In the end, he sent the latter a message.
‘Master Kieran, thank you for helping me yesterday at the bar. Also, the licensing organization called me, and I have already gotten the license. Hence, I would like to treat you to a meal as a sign of gratitude.
Kieran was rather shocked upon receiving the message.
I just helped him out yesterday on the account of serving justice, so how did I ever solve his problem with the licensing issue?On top of that, I only came to know about the situation yesterday, and I told Nicholas… Right, my brother!It must have been him! That shy boy! He only knew about this yesterday as well, and even said he wanted to find who was causing all this trouble. It’s only been a few hours and he’s already had the problem solved. This speed is…He even said that he wasn’t interested in anything concerning Tessa, but his actions seem to contradict his words, though. He went so far as to help out her brother.Looks like Nicholas wants to be some anonymous hero by doing the good deed and letting someone else get all the glory. Giving away a free feast?Tsk!I have to give him a prize for his hard work.
At that thought, Kieran could not hold it in any longer as he shut the folder on his desk and went to Nicholas’ office, wanting to discuss this with his brother.
“Nicholas, I heard that you solved Timothy’s problem?” Kieran asked as soon as he opened the door.
Standing there calmly, Kieran looked at his brother, who always had an unchanging expression even if the sky were to fall.
Gazing at his brother, Nicholas then admitted it was him with a short “yes” before lowering his head, continuing to sift through his documents. “If you’re free, then go and sort out the reports.”
“Wait! Nicholas, I have a lot on my plate as well. I came here because there was something important that I have to tell you,” Kieran said resignedly.
Emotionlessly, Nicholas then replied, “Out with it, then. After that, sort out the reports for me.”
“I say, if you treated me as well as you treat that pair of siblings, I would’ve been on your side unconditionally a long time ago,” Kieran said, his tone aggrieved.
However, before Nicholas had the chance to chase him away, he quickly followed up, “Timothy wants to treat me to a meal as thanks for my help.”
Hearing this, Nicholas stopped for a second before continuing to read through the documents while saying, “Go then.”
Upon hearing that, Kieran asked in confusion, “But, don’t you want to come as well?”
Meanwhile, Nicholas responded calmly, “I’ll be bringing Greg with me.”
On the other end, Tessa was at home racking her brains and seeing if she could contact any friends who had companies of their own for help.
Suddenly, Timothy gave her a call. “Tess, I’ve got the license!”
“What? Why so sudden?”
Although elated, Tessa was confused too, as she had seen her brother still being heavily concerned over the issue this morning. It was just afternoon and he had already solved the issue.
“It was Master Kieran who helped me out. Yesterday, when I was out looking for someone with connections, I bumped into him. He helped us to solve it after hearing about our predicament.”
Out of concern for Tessa, Timothy had intentionally omitted him being at the bar and what went down there.
His words stunned Tessa. I had never thought that in the end, we will still owe the Sawyer Family one.
Hearing his sister go silent over the phone made Timothy think that she might be afraid of owing them something. Hence, he said reassuringly, “Don’t worry that we owe them something, Tess. I’ve already arranged for dinner tonight with Master Kieran. You should come with me.”
Thinking that this was the proper thing to do, she agreed. “Alright.”
That night at the restaurant that Timothy had pre-booked, the moment Tessa entered, she saw that besides Kieran, there were two unexpected people that showe up, namely Gregory and Nicholas.
