Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas)
Chapter 1408

“If we don’t do anything, we’ll be the ones who suffer in the end. Do you want to go to jail? At your age?” Adam knew full well that if Nicholas unearthed all that they had done, they would still be brought to justice even if they were in at different country.

It went without saying that Joseph didn’t want to go to jail, but he was still hesitant. “But if we do anything to Nicholas, Remus will surely replace out and he won’t let us off the hook either.”

“We’ll just make sure they don’t replace out then,” Adam declared decisively. He couldn’t allow Nicholas to expose these things. Meanwhile, Nicholas had no clue about all of this.

The next morning, he had breakfast with Tessa and Gregory before heading to the office. He was so busy the whole morning that her couldn’t even take a break.

At the same time, inside Sawyer Group’s basement parking lot, a man in a security guard’s uniform snuck over to the car Nicholas drove this morning. “Tsk. What a shame. It’s such a nice car.”

The security guard studied the car pitifully before looking around to scan the vicinity. Once he was certain no one else was around, he went under the car and sabotaged the brakes.

As soon as he finished, he wriggled back out and hid his tools inside his uniform before pulling his cap down and sneaking away carefully. After leaving the parking lot, the man ducked into a hidden corner and made a call. “It’s done, sir.”

“Excellent. Hide your tracks well. Make sure no one traces this back to you.” The voice that replied was vicious and sinister. The man nodded and replied, “I will.”

That evening, Nicholas worked late to deal with the mountain of work that was piling on his desk. Soon, Kieran came in with a cup of coffee and an ingratiating smile..

“I brought you coffee, Nicholas.” He eagerly set the cup down beside Nicholas. Nicholas eyed Kieran and remarked evenly, “You want something from me. Go ahead and say it.”

“Hehe. You understand me the best, Nicholas. I’d like to borrow your car.” Kieran gave Nicholas a shoulder massage as he said what he wanted. Nicholas frowned. “Is your club racing tonight?”

“We weren’t planning on it, but a few challengers came over from the neighboring city, so we organized an impromptu race. It just so happens that I sent my car to the mechanic a few days ago and I haven’t gotten it back yet.”

Kieran gave a quick explanation before grinning at Nicholas. He was still giving the latter a massage. Nicholas flicked Kieran’s hands off disdainfully. but he tossed his car key over anyway. “Stay safe during the race.”

“Don’t worry. I’m a good racer.” Since Kieran got what he wanted, he was in a good mood.

He walked off with the key and was about to leave when a thought occurred to him “Don’t work too late, Nicholas. You should go home soon and spend more time with Tessa and Gordon.” “I can finish my work sooner if you don’t stick around and disturb me,’ Nicholas retorted, but his eyes softened.

He did like hearing his brother expressing concern for him. Kieran was unbothered by Nicholas’ response. He left twiddling the car key in his hand.

Soon, he arrived at the parking lot, located Nicholas’ car, and climbed in. Kieran drove out of the parking lot. However, when he joined the ring road, he realized that something was wrong with the brakes.

“The brakes aren’t working?” he murmured to himself with a frown. He knew that such an issue would never happen with Nicholas’ car, unless…

A terrifying thought emerged in his mind and he grabbed his phone to call Nicholas at once. Nicholas was still in the office when he saw a call coming in from Kieran, so he answered.

“What is it?” “I’m going to cut to the chase, Nicholas. I’m on the ring road right now. Someone tampered with your brakes. I’ll think of a way to stop the car. You need to send someone to come and get me right now.”
