Always Been Yours Chapter 481

“M-Master Nicholas, why are you here?”

Colin stepped forward to greet him with trepidation when he inmediately recognized Nicholas ‘identity.

Nicholas glanced at him, then said, “I’m here to pick up my girlfriend.”

With that, he stepped forward and placed his arms around Tessa.

She looked at the man next to her in surprise, and her panicked heart suddenly eased.

She couldn’t conceal the sweet smile on her face when she asked, “Why are you here?”

“I was worried knowing that you were coming to a bar. So I’ve been waiting outside because I was afraid that someone would cause trouble for you.”

Nicholas swept a cold glance over Colin, his eyes full of hostility as he spoke.

Colin only felt a chill spreading from the soles of his feet to his whole body, causing his legs to tremble a little.

“M-Master Nicholas, I’m in the wrong. I didn’t know she was your woman. I’m sure a great man like you would be a generous one as well. Please spare me.”

He quickly bowed and apologized. His behavior was extremely sincere, and his previous arrogance could no longer be seen.

The members of the orchestra were stunned, especially Kathleen.

She never expected Tessa’s boyfriend to be so powerful.

The people around them were also shocked as they guessed Nicholas’ identity.

After all, these people weren’t in the inner circle of Southend, and there were rarely any photos of Nicholas, so it was normal for them not to know Nicholas.

Nicholas ignored the whispers around him, raised his eyes slightly, and said coldly, “This matter has nothing to do with my girlfriend, so I won’t do anything to you.”

When Colin heard this, his suspended heart eased.

He immediately expressed his gratitude. “Thank you, Master Nicholas. Thank you, Master Nicholas.”

“You’re thanking me too early. I haven’t finished yet,” Nicholas interrupted.

Colin’s smile froze in the next second, and his eased heart panicked again.

Nicholas continued, “Although I won’t do anything to you, whoever provoked her will be responsible. Do you understand what I mean?”

How could Colin not understand this?

This matter had nothing to do with the rest of the orchestra or Tessa. The only person involved was Kathleen..

He understood, and so did the others, including Kathleen.

“What do you mean by that?”

Her eyes blazed as she questioned Nicholas.

Nicholas stared back at her with frighteningly cold eyes. “You didn’t know when to stop. You brought all this trouble to the orchestra due to your actions, yet you still tried to put my girlfriend in harm’s way. Does she owe you anything?”

Kathleen couldn’t refute after being questioned by those sharp and pointed words.

However, it was also because she was undoubtedly frightened by the aura emanating off Nicholas’ body.

Her face was ashen, and she grudgingly retorted, “She’s a local. Shouldn’t she come forward if something goes wrong?”

As soon as she said that, not only did the members of the orchestra show disapproval, but Tessa’s face turned sour as well.

The look on Nicholas’ face was even nastier, and his low voice was sullen. “How impenitent. Who will teach people like you a lesson if no one does?”

“No! You can’t do that.”

Kathleen was truly panicking now.

Nicholas didn’t listen to her at all. Instead, he walked to the side with his arms around Tessa after he said his piece.

“I’ve notified your mother, Hathaway, to come over. We’ll see what she plans to do with this matter.”

Tessa leaned against Nicholas and didn’t stop him.

Due to how detestable Kathleen’s behavior was, it had already crossed her bottom

line.

However, she was still a little uneasy.

She leaned in close to his ear and asked softly, “Is it really okay to do this?”

Despite everything, Kathleen was her teacher’s daughter, so she was worried that her teacher would be upset when she arrived.

Nicholas looked down at the woman in his arms, saw through her concern, and said softly, “Don’t worry. It’ll be fine.”

Her worries eased when she saw that he had a plan in mind.

Meanwhile, Colin could discern Nicholas’ disgust for Kathleen.

In order to please Nicholas, he intended to make things hard for this foreign woman.
