“Mr. Walter, don’t worry. Tessic got a few hours of sleep carlier.”

Knowing that Tessa was always his biggest concern, Lalon spoke gently as he wiped Walter’s body, updating him with care on everything she’d done in the past few hours.

“Mr. Thorne, allow me,” Louis offered the moment Landon moved to fetch water.

Landon didn’t insist. He simply rolled his sleeves back down.

Louis carried the basin out of the room and turned to Tessa, who was waiting outside. “Ms. Sinclair, you can go in now. Mr. Thorne finished cleaning Mr. Walter He’s truly a good man. I think he must really care about you to be willing to do all this.”

Tessa didn’t know what to say. She slipped past him and entered the room.

She was met with a quietly harmonious scene–Landon and Walter getting along naturally, Landon’s forehead was damp with a fine sheen of sweat from his efforts.

Tessa grabbed a few tissues and reached up to gently wipe the sweat from his brow.

It was the first time she had ever done something so intimate.

Landon was a head taller than her, so she had to rise onto her tiptoes to reach him.

She moved carefully, and Landon looked down at her with nothing but tenderness in his eyes.

Watching the easy, natural connection between the two even Walter’s eyes crinkled with a smile.

It really was a beautiful moment. So beautiful, one could almost wish time would freeze right there.

“All done,” Landon said, catching her hand and guiding her to sit down on the stool beside Walter’s bed. “Don’t worry about me. Just keep Mr. Walter company for a while.”

Right then, his phone buzzed.

“I’ll take this outside. Call me if you need anything,” he told her before stepping out.

Tessa watched the door close behind him. That high–and–mighty Nightshade Pack Alpha felt so down–to- earth whenever he was by her side.

“Tessie…” Walter’s voice called out to her.

She turned around immediately. “Grandpa? What is it? Do you need something?”

“Tessie, I really do think Landie is a good man. He’s a bit older than you, sure, but as long as he treats you well, that’s what matters. I just want you to be happy.”

It was the first time Walter had spoken in over ten hours. His voice was hoarse.

Tessa nodded. “I know, Grandpa. Don’t worry. I’ll hold on tight to the happiness that’s meant for me.”

She was still young, but she knew very clearly who truly cared for her.

Chapter 250 Intentions and Illusions

Around nine in the morning, Winona arrived at the hospital. Lila spotted her and pulled her aside.

“Why are you only showing up now? Your grandfather been awake for hours.”

“So what if he’s awake? I’m not a doctor. What’s the point of me being here? He’s never wanted to see me anyway. In his eyes, Tessa’s the only real granddaughter” Winona muttered bitterly, full of resentment over Walter’s favoritism.

“Lower your voice! Don’t you care about the Sinclair family’s inheritance?” Lila dragged her away from the hallway.

“Mom, I’m working hard to get Evan to like me. Once become his mate, I’ll be the Luna of the Thornbane Pack, I couldn’t care less about the Sinclair family’s scraps–or the Frostmoon Pack’s for that matter.”

“Mr. Evan really likes you?” Lila’s eyes lit up with excitement.

“Mhm. I’m going to make him fall for me. No matter what it takes,” Winona said with conviction.
