Chapter 315 A Line Crossed
Yardley’s face twisted with fury, his werewolf aura flaring wildly with agitation.
He’d already spelled things out as plainly as possible–so why couldn’t she understand?
How could someone be this greedy?

“What I’m saying is, now that you already have Thorne Corp, why must you fight me for Sinclair Corp too? Sinclair Corp is my life’s work–I can’t lose it!”
Tessa’s eyes flashed cold, a steely chill settling into the air around her. The subtle but terrifying pressure she released made the temperature drop sharply.
“Your life’s work? You can’t be serious,” she said, voice sharp. “Why don’t you go ahead and tell me what exactly you’ve done for Sinclair Corp?”
If it weren’t for him, Sinclair Corp wouldn’t be in the miserable state it was today.
“And another thing,” she added, eyes narrowing, “who told you Thorne Corp is mine? Did you give it to
me?”
How could he say something so shameless with a straight face? What did he take her for?
“Tessa, I truly believe that Alpha Mr. Landon treats you well. If you could become his mate—even if you can’t, just staying by his side–he would never let you suffer.”
Tessa felt an actual headache coming on.
Was this really something a father should be saying?
He wanted his daughter to be someone else’s mistress?
“Yardley, enough with the nonsense. I’m taking Sinclair Corp. That’s final.”
“You-” Yardley’s chest heaved with fury, his aura spiraling out of control. “Tessa, how can you be so heartless? I’m still your father! Are you really going to push me to the edge? Will you only be satisfied when I jump off the top of Sinclair Corp’s building?!”
“Jump?” Tessa’s tone turned icy. “So now you’re threatening me?”
Yardley didn’t answer. But he couldn’t live without Sinclair Corp.
He couldn’t afford to lose.
“Remember this–if I can’t remain president of Sinclair Corp, I’ll jump off the building. I’ll make sure you live with the guilt for the rest of your life.”
Tessa laughed–a low, biting sound.
“Even if you jumped, nothing would change. You know me. My heart has always been cold. Even if you dropped dead right in front of me, it wouldn’t disturb my peace in the slightest.”

With that, she walked past him without another glance.

“Tessa, how can you be so cruel? I’m your father! How can you treat me like this?” Yardley roared after her, red light gleaming in his eyes, fangs slightly bared. Tufts of fur began to sprout from his neck.
He was losing control.
But Tessa didn’t so much as flinch. Nothing he said could change the fact that she was taking Sinclair Corp back.
Yardley stood frozen, seething.
He was the male alpha of the Sinclair family. He should’ve been the Frostmoon Pack’s alpha.
If not for the injury he sustained in the vampire war five years ago, would he be in this pathetic state now?
Sinclair Corp was all he had left–and he was not letting it go.
With his last thread of composure, he pulled out his phone and called Liam, voice laced with madness.
“Go to the Sinclair estate. Take the old man. Now.”
If Tessa wouldn’t give him a way out, then he’d make one. Even if it meant crossing a line.
He would not lose Sinclair Corp.
