Chapter 1218 A Dignified Aura

“Madam Sawyer, I heard that Miss Reinhart’s status was the reason why the Sawyers

disapproved of her in the first place. The Sawyers deemed her to be unworthy of Mr.

Sawyer. Yet, your attitude toward Miss Reinhart these days has changed once again. Is it

because her current status can bring a considerable amount of fame and benefits to the

Sawyers? May I interpret that as the reason behind the change in your attitude?”

Stefania’s already displeased face flushed crimson after hearing the reporter’s barbed

questions. “You aren’t a reporter employed by the Sawyer Group, are you? Which media

company do you work for? How dare you sneak into the banquet to stir up trouble? Who is

the mastermind behind this?”

Stefania immediately exposed the reporter’s identity. After all, the media reporters present

at the banquet this evening are all sent here by the media companies under the Sawyer

Group.

Therefore, none of them will behave in such a way. As for the reporter, he didn’t show

even the slightest sign of panic even though Stefania exposed his identity. Instead, he

continued to confront Stefania, “Madam Sawyer, judging by your nonsensical remarks, can

I take it as your acquiescence to my words?”

Unexpectedly, as soon as the reporter stopped, Tessa’s cold voice abruptly sounded from

behind the crowd, “My mother-in-law doesn’t want to answer you solely because your

questions aren’t worth her time.”

The others gave way when they saw her.

Tessa slowly made her way toward Stefania’s side with her hand on her waist. Then, she

defended Stefania by saying, “As a reporter, you should know that hearsay is an act that

reporters should avoid. My mother-in-law and I have always been close. As for the

accusations you threw around earlier, those were nothing but rumors.”

After she finished saying that, she stared the reporter down with a warning look.

Perhaps due to her spending a long time with Nicholas, her dignified aura succeeded in

frightening the reporter.

The reporter let out a hollow laugh under her death stare before he said, “Calm down, Miss

Reinhart. I’m just asking out of curiosity, that’s all.”

“It’s not worth it for me to get angry over matters like this. Moreover, I know what you are

trying to do. What I can tell you is that I have very high standards for myself because my

husband is indeed very outstanding. I have always made being worthy to stand by his side

a goal of mine. This is also why I’ve worked so hard until now,” Tessa explained with a

professional smile. Although her voice was soft, it was still full of steel as she warned, “Did

I make myself clear? Oh, and one more thing… Please stop sowing discord between my

mother-in-law and me in the future.”

“No, I won’t ever do it again,” the reporter said as he forced a smile on his face. Then, he

hastily apologized and scurried away.

As for everyone else, they all felt that Tessa had an extremely high emotional intelligence

after they saw her resolve the matter so ingeniously.

Now that she had resolved the matter, the guests soon dispersed.

When Tessa noticed that Stefania was still in relatively low spirits, she coaxed, “Mother,

don’t take those words to heart.”

Nicholas walked over just as they were conversing.

Since he suddenly received a call to attend a senior management meeting abroad a while

ago, he wasn’t present when the incident happened.

Therefore, when he saw the somewhat awful look on Stefania’s face upon his return, he

frowned slightly and asked, “What’s the matter?”

“A reporter from another media company sneaked in and asked Mother a few

inappropriate questions earlier.”

After that, Tessa briefly told Nicholas about the incident that took place a moment ago.

Nicholas’ facial expression turned slightly cold as he listened to Tessa’s story.

At this moment, Stefania questioned Nicholas with a displeased demeanor, “How could the

security detail you arranged be so lacking? Why did they allow an uninvited guest to enter

the banquet? We’re lucky that the person who sneaked in this time was a reporter. What if

someone with malicious intentions succeeded in sneaking past security today? God knows

what will happen this evening once that happens!”

“Mom, I’m sorry for overlooking this matter. I will ask Edward to find out what’s going on

later,” Nicholas comforted Stefania. Later, he asked Tessa to accompany Stefania before

he turned around to deal with the matter.

The banquet was almost over around 10.00PM.

Due to Tessa’s health, Nicholas took her and his parents back home before the banquet

was over.

On the other hand, the guests only began leaving the hotel once the time was up.

This included the reporter who picked on Stefania a moment ago. He blended into the

crowd and planned to make his escape.

He was somewhat on tenterhooks at the moment for fear Nicholas would come and get

even with him.

Nonetheless, he gradually let his guard down once he walked out of the venue and strode

toward the parking lot when he realized that he was in the clear.

Yet, to his surprise, two dark-clothed bodyguards suddenly appeared out of nowhere and

blocked his path just as he was midway to his car.

The reporter felt a little fearful when he saw these two men.

“Who are you guys? What business do you have with me?”
