RankNovelChapter 147 That NAgain
Tessa headed to the hospital right after school.
But when she got there, she was met with an empty hospital room.
Her grandfather was gone.
After tracking down a nurse and pressing for answers, she learned Walter had already been discharged and sent
home.
Tessa sighed, feeling a wave of helplessness crash over her. That old man was so damn stubborn. He hadn’
wanted to stay in the hospital in the first place. It had taken her forever to convince him to stay for observation.
And now, the moment she left for three days, he took the opportunity to sneak back home.
She flagged down a cab and rerouted to the Sinclair residence.
The moment she walked through the front door, Lila greeted her with a bright smile and immediately told the
maid to bring water.
“Tessie, you're back! Have swater first-your grandfather's in the study.”
Beauty Luxe was selling like crazy now, and with Tessa being the likely candidate for Sinclair Corp’s next
executive CEO, Lila’s attitude had done a full one-eighty.
After all, no matter how she used to feel, Tessa was still her daughter. If the company ended up in Tessa’s hands,
maybe she’d still have a way to stay relevant. Maybe she'd even benefit from it.
“I'm not thirsty.”
Tessa walked straight to Walter's private study. The room was lined with rare wolf clan artifacts and ancient
texts.
Walter was hunched over a desk, examining an old wolf clan manuscript through a magnifying glass. He looked
up the second she walked in.
“You're back. Have you eaten?”
Tessa narrowed her eyes. “Grandpa, you are so disobedient. | told you to stay put in the hospital, and | was gone

Walter just chuckled. “Con, Tessie, don’t be so uptight. | feel fine. My body’s strong as ever.”
Tessa threw up her hands. There was no reasoning with this man.
“By the way,” Walter added, “Beauty Luxe is doing really well now. You need to keep an eye on your father. He's
not letting go of this so easily.”
“Grandpa, | told you already. You gaveSinclair Corp. Lethandle it.”
“It’s not that | don’t trust you. It’s just... your father...” Walter trailed off with a sigh.
He handed her a folder. “I found a few strong...

“Don’t worry, | can take care of myself.”
Walter looked at her for a moment, then his tone softened. “Tessie... do you blme? If | hadn't on your
shoulders, you wouldn't be in danger. You're only seventeen. You haven't even awakened your wolf

yet.”
“If anything happens to you because of me... I'll never forgive myself.”
“Grandpa,” she said, voice steady, “I've never blamed you.”
Besides, she was strong enough now.
Yardley? He wasn’t worth losing sleep over.
Later that afternoon, the driver picked her and Winona up and started heading back to school.
Once the car doors were shut, Winona dropped the act completely.
“So, feeling proud of yourself now, huh?”
Only the driver was around-and he was loyal to Lila. No more need to pretend.
Tessa closed her eyes, leaning her head back against the seat. She didn’t bother responding.

“Then don’t yell atabout it. It makes you look petty.”
“You-"
Tessa didn’t enjoy arguing with people, but when she did choose to speak, Winona was no match for her.
Winona suddenly smirked. “You're

She looked smug, satisfied.
No matter what Tessa accomplished, she'd never get Connor.
Tessa blinked slowly. “Connor?”
She hadn’t heard that nin years. So long, in fact, she had to wonder-
