The atmosphere in the dining room was heavy. Neither Walter nor Yardley had any appetite. Only Tessa ate her
breakfast as usual.
She even took the tto gently nudge Walter, “Grandpa, just for you, won't pursue what happened last night.
But you should eat something. You're still not fully recovered-you can’t skip meals.”
Walter let out a long sigh. “Tessic, we didn’t raise her right. You've had to suffer for it.”
“Tessie, don’t worry. I'll be sure to discipline her properly,” Yardley added, his tone bordering on sycophantic.
Tessa ignored him and kept cating.
Just then, Lila cdownstairs with a trembling Winona, clearly displeased as she looked at Tessa. “Tessie,
Winnie's still your sister. It was bad enough that you ruined her hand-how could you treat her like this too?”
“Enough!” Yardley slammed the table, cutting Lila off. His voice thundered with anger. “If you hadn't spoiled her
all this time, would she have turned out like this?”
“But Dad, this was clearly Tessa’s fault-"
Before Winona could finish, Yardley slapped her hard across the face. “And you! Didn’t | warn you not to hurt
Tessa? Do you think | was just talking to the wind?!”
“Dad?” Winona clutched her cheek in shock, overwhelmed with humiliation.
Her father had always been on her side.
But now, he was hitting her-for Tessa?
“How could you hit Winnie?!” Lila pulled Winona into her arms protectively.

“Maybe you should look at what she did first!” Walter snapped, reaching into his pocket and tossing the dagger
onto the floor in front of Lila. “Your darling daughter tried to slash Tessa’s face with a dagger coated in
Wolfsbane! If Tessa hadn't caught her in time, she'd be in the hospital fighting for her life!”
“What?” Lila gasped. She hadn’t expected Winona to be that vicious.
She'd always assumed Winona'’s bullying was just petty sisterly squabbling. She never imagined her daughter
would go so far as to use Wolfsbane-especially against her own sister.
“Winnie, you've really disappointed me.” At that moment, Lila couldn't defend her daughter anymore.
“We're supposed to be a family. And look at us now-sisters trying to kill each other. If word gets out, I'll never be
able to show my face again,” Walter muttered in dismay.
“Alright, Grandpa, don’t be upset. Like | said, because of you, | won't make a big deal out of it this time. But if
there's a next time... | won't be so forgiving.” Tessa cast Winona a cold glance, and Winona flinched immediately.

They were both his granddaughters, but the difference between them was night and day.
“This winter break, you'll go to the Frostmoon Pack’s lower-tier training camp for discipline,” Walter declared.
“You walk around with your nose in the air, chasing power, hurting your own sister. It's tyou learned the
discipline and loyalty that low-rank wolves live by. Maybe then you'll understand the meaning of family.”
“Mom!” Winona clung to Lila’s arm, pleading for help.
She couldn't go train with those lowly omega wolves!
But Lila didn’t dare say a word.

If it weren't for that, Winona would already be behind bars.
“Tessie, finish your breakfast. Aren't you going to Beauty Luxe soon?”
Walter spoke as if Winona didn’t even exist anymore.

That's fine. Everything they'd put her through today-she’d pay it all back in full one day.
None of them will have a happy ending.
