Since it was still class time and the school didn’t allow students to leave without permission, Tessa simply climbed over the wall.
This time, Ysabel wasn’t with her. She didn’t even bother to disguise herself. Relying solely on her powerful jumping ability, she leapt onto the wall over feet high and jumped straight down on the other side.
Landon watched as she landed from the wall, his eyelid twitching slightly.
Seriously? Why climb a wall when she could just take the normal way out?
He stood by the car with a half–smoked cigarette between his fingers. When he saw Tessa approaching, he stubbed out the cigarette and tossed it into the trash can.
When she reached him, he opened the car door and let her in.
Tessa got into the passenger seat and closed her eyes to rest.
She had only come out because he called her, but now that she saw him, she didn’t feel like saying anything. So, she decided to nap in his car for a while.
“Didn’t sleep well last night?” Is it because of Connor? That guy has been standing outside Wisteria Apartment all night.
“You should be the one who didn’t sleep,” Tessa said with her eyes still closed.
Landon remained silent.
So she already knows he didn’t go home last night.
Tessa felt safe around Landon, so she fell asleep in his car without hesitation.
Looking at her completely unguarded expression, Landon let out a soft sigh.
Even though Tessa hadn’t fully figured things out yet, he knew he was special to her. At the very least, she trusted him enough to fall asleep by his side.
Thinking of that, Landon felt content.
Watching her breathing gradually slow and steady, he took off his suit jacket and draped it over her, then simply sat beside her and quietly kept her company.
Even if he didn’t do anything, just being near her filled his heart with peace and satisfaction.
That afternoon, Winona showed up at school despite not being fully recovered, just to see Tessa’s downfall.
A few girls close to her immediately rushed over with concern. “Winnie, now that Tessa’s probably getting expelled, no one’s ever going to bully you or fight you for Mr. Connor again.”
“I know you mean well,” Winona replied with a sorrowful look, “but no matter what, Tessa is still my sister.

She was thrilled on the inside, but her face remained full of sadness, looking like a helpless and pitiful angel.
“Winnie, you think of her as your sister, but she clearly doesn’t think the same. If she did, she wouldn’t have tried to take him from you.”
“Exactly! You can’t be too kind. Otherwise, you’re the one who ends up getting hurt.”
Anna listened to the girls around Winona and felt a wave of disgust.
They were always hanging around Winona, but seeing them act like this made her want to laugh. Others might not know what kind of person Winona really was, but she did, clearly.
Later, when Winona was alone, Anna approached her.
“Winona, this all started because of you. Are you really going to sit back and do nothing?”
Winona frowned, and the sweet smile on her face vanished.
