Fell for the Alpha-less Queen novel Chapter 389

Chapter 389 You Call That Parenting

Nico rushed inside, panic written all over his face. The moment he heard that his mother had brought mercenaries to confront Tessa, he’d hurried over immediately.

He was terrified that he might be too late–that something might happen to Tessa…

“Tessa, don’t be afraid; I’m here now. No one’s going to hurt you.”

Nico stepped in front of her, standing tall and rigid like a beast guarding its cub.

Seeing her son’s eyes locked solely on Tessa made Sharon’s expression even darker.

“Nico, can’t you see I’m the one who’s hurt?” Sharon glared at her son, her fingernails digging deep into her palms. “Tessa isn’t the harmless little thing you think she is–she shot me just now!”

“Enough!” Nico’s eyes were bloodshot. “Tessa is just a student; what right do you have to bring mercenaries after her? If you hadn’t been trying to hurt her, you wouldn’t have gotten hurt at all.”

He glanced briefly at Sharon’s injured foot, then looked away

She had brought all of this on herself. Whether it was her ruined arm or her bleeding foot–it was all just retaliation for trying to harm Tessa.

Nico was deeply disappointed in his mother. “If you hadn’t gone out of your way to bully Tessa, you wouldn’t be in this state. I begged you so many times, but you just wouldn’t let her go. Honestly, I wish I had never had a mother so blind to right and wrong.”

“Nico!”

Sharon was nearly hysterical with rage.

But Nico just looked at Tessa with a pained expression. “Tessa, I’m sorry. If it weren’t for me, none of this would’ve happened to you.”

He felt awful; she was the girl he liked most in the world, and yet she had been dragged through all this because of him.

“Come on; I’ll take you out of here.” Nico took her hand and began walking toward the exit.

“Nico, stop right there!”

But no matter how much Sharon screamed, Nico never looked back.

“Damn it! How dare he! For Tessa, he dares to treat me like this?”

Furious, Sharon’s high–level wolf aura burst out of her; the cafe windows shattered from the force of it.

“Miss, what now?” one of the werewolf mercenaries asked, trembling.

“Take me to the hospital!” Sharon snapped.

Sharon pondered. Couldn’t they see I’d been hit with a silver bullet? The wound wasn’t healing, and they still had the nerve to ask me what to do? Did they have no initiative at all?

“Yes, Miss.” The mercenary responded instantly, scooping her up and rushing her to the hospital.

Chapter 389 You Call That Parenting

Outside the cafe, beneath the camphor tree, Nico and Tessa sat side by side on a bench.

Since stepping out of the cafe, Nico hadn’t said a word; he just sat there quietly.

Seeing him like that, Tessa stayed silent too; she simply sat beside him.

“Tessa, I’m sorry.” After all that time, it was the only thing Nico could bring himself to say; there was nothing else he could do.
