He had always been fond of Tessa since she was little, knowing that she was a thoughtful child, someone whose heart was hard for others to enter. But once she let someone in, her feelings ran deep.
“Dad, you’ve seen it for yourself. Tessa is not suited for Sinclair Corp. I hope you’ll transfer her shares to
me.”
“Yardley, you can leave,” Tessa said coldly, using his first name.
At this point, all he cared about was profit. A person like that had no right to stand there.
“Tessa, no matter what, I’m your father! How can you speak to me like that?” Yardley fumed, wishing he could grow claws and tear her throat out.
If he had known Tessa would turn out like this, when the witch had predicted she wouldn’t have a wolf, he should have killed her back then!
“Yardley, leave! You all should go! I just need Tessie here with me. This room isn’t big enough to hold all of you,” Walter said.
Among the family, only Tessa truly cared about his health.
Yardley grumbled, “Dad, are you still protecting her? How long are you going to protect her?”
“Yes, Grandpa, you’re in the hospital. How can we leave and feel at ease? I want to stay and keep you company,” Winona protested, not wanting Tessa to keep impressing their grandfather.
Lila chimed in, “Dad, Tessa is still young. She doesn’t understand anything. How could she take care of you? Let me stay and take care of you instead!”
“Do you no longer listen to my words? Everything I’ve said is just nonsense, isn’t it?”
Walter was angry, struggling to rise from the bed.
“Fine, if you don’t want to see us, we’ll leave,” Yardley said, deeply disappointed in Walter.
Seeing that Yardley was leaving, Lila didn’t dare stay any longer and grabbed Winona to leave.
Once outside, Winona spoke, “Mom, what kind of spell has Tessa cast on Grandpa? She’s ruined Sinclair Corp, but Grandpa still trusts her. Why is that?”
“Enough, stop talking. Your dad is already upset. The Sinclair family isn’t what it used to be, and our position in the Frostmoon Pack is shaky. You need to focus more on the Lawson family in the Thunder Pack. Only by becoming Connor’s mate can you gain more resources. That way, both the Sinclair family
and Frostmoon Pack will benefit.”
Winona clenched her fist.
“Mom, you know the Lawson family is from the second–largest pack, the Thunder Pack, and they’re beyond what the Sinclair family can compare to. But if I have no capital. how can the I —–

With Lila’s promise, Winona was finally satisfied.

Back in the hospital room, only Walter and Tessa remained.
“Tessie, come sit down.”
Tessa pulled over a chair and sat. “Grandpa, rest well. Don’t worry. Sinclair Corp has me! It won’t fall, and neither will the Sinclair family!”
Walter couldn’t help but smile. “Tessie, when you reach my age, many things stop mattering. You see, I’m getting old now. I can let go of anything, except, you. I just want you to be happy. As for the Sinclair family now, let’s not talk about it…”
Tessie was his favorite grandchild.
Tessa wasn’t a talkative child, so she simply nodded. But inside, she felt empty.
She had always known how much her grandfather cared for her.
“Actually, I’m still not ready to leave this world. I haven’t seen you find your mate yet! How could I leave?”
Seeing the serious look on her face, Walter joked, trying to lighten the mood.
“Grandpa, I promise you’ll be there to see my wedding to my future mate.”
Just the thought brought tears to Walter’s eyes.
