Chapter 251 Jealous Games
Winona sneered to herself, thinking about how to strike back at Tessa in a way that would really hurt.
“Tessic, I didn’t mean it. Honestly, I didn’t see you,” she said in a fake–sweet voice. “Don’t worry, I’m not going to fight you over Connor anymore. You like him Be with him.”
“Don’t disgust me, Winona,” Tessa replied, her eyes icy Weren’t you the one who used to be head over heels for Connor? What now? Changed your target already?”
Winona bristled. “Changed target? I just realized that some things can’t be forced. If Connor doesn’t love me, why should I keep humiliating myself?” So what if he had changed targets? Connor never saw her as his girlfriend anyway. Why should she keep chasing him? Evan was a hundred times better than Connor.
“Do you know the Zane family–the Alpha line of the Thornbane Pack?” Winona bragged suddenly. “I finally figured it out. The kind of Alpha I really like is someone like Mr. Evan–strong and commanding.”
“How is that my problem?” Tessa shot back without flinching. “Winona, let me warn you–do whatever you want with your life, but if you lay a finger on the Sinclair family, I won’t let it slide.”
She hadn’t even gotten around to settling the photo incident, and now Winona was getting bold again?
Tessa had let it go because of Grandpa’s surgery, but Winona was clearly crossing the line now.
Winona laughed mockingly. “Tessa, you’ve always been jealous of me, haven’t you? What now? Jealous again because I’m with Evan? Planning to seduce him too?”
Tessa’s eyes narrowed dangerously.
If they weren’t in a hospital room–if Walter weren’t asleep–she would’ve taught Winona a real lesson right then and there.
“Winnie, that’s enough,” Lila warned, afraid things would blow up right in the hospital.
Tessa’s tone was cold. “I’ve been keeping my distance, but don’t push things too far. When it all goes wrong, don’t come crying to me.”
Evan? Winona seriously thought she could win him over?
The real question was: Was Evan aiming for her–or was this about Landon?
Tessa’s expression tensed at the thought of how many times Evan had sent assassins after Landon.
“You’re just jealous! Winona snapped. “Jealous that I’m going to be the Luna of the Thornbane Pack while you’ll always be stuck beneath me!“,
“Get her out of here,” Tessa said flatly. She had no interest in wasting time arguing with someone this delusional.
Lila could see Tessa’s patience wearing thin and quickly dragged Winona away.
“Winnie, are you sure Evan actually likes you? What if he’s just using you?”
Tessa’s warning echoed in Lila’s mind. She was more realistic than Winona.

Chapter 251–Jealous Games
+8 Pearls
Before, she had dared to pursue the Thunder Pack’s Lawson family only because Winona had once saved Connor and was well–liked by Fiona..
But the Thornbane Pack was on another level. Compared to the Thunder Pack, they were far more powerful. And Evan, as their Alpha, would never spare second glance at a small–time pack like. Frostmoon–let alone take a special interest in Winona
Winona was furious at her mother’s doubts. “What are you trying to say? That I’m not worthy of love?” Why shouldn’t she be? What did Tessa have that she didn’t? She wasn’t some useless girl without a wolf.
Lila quickly tried to calm her down. “Winnic, that’s not what I meant. It’s just that Evan may be strong, but he doesn’t exactly have the best reputation. That’s why I’m worried.”
Evan’s power was undeniable–but so was his reputation as a playboy. He had too many women around him.
Not long ago, he was caught in a scandal with the actress Remi. And just like that, he dumped her shortly after.
Could a man like that really fall for Winona?
