Chapter 239 True Heir Yardley was stunned by the scene in front of him.
He had never met the Nightshade Pack's Alpha Landon personally, but five years ago, during the battles against the vampires, he had seen Beta Nathaniel, who conveyed Landon's orders.
Now Nathaniel was calling this man "Alpha," and combined with the fact that Walter kept calling him Landon- could it be....
The fur on Yardley's neck stood on end in terror, and cold sweat poured down his back.
"Y-You're Alpha Landon?" Yardley's voice trembled. Only now did he notice the unusual pressure surrounding Landon, Landon didn't even spare him a glance and directly ordered Nathaniel, "Take him away. Keep him locked up until after the old man's surgery and recovery. Post guards at the door-no outsiders allowed in"" "Yes, Alpha!" Nathaniel responded immediately.

Yardley's tail involuntarily emerged, trembling as he was pinned by the two warriors. "Alpha Landon. I was wrong! I truly didn't know your identity, If I had known, I would never have dared to say such foolish things! Please, Landon, have mercy on me!" Yardley's pleas faded into the distance, and finally, peace returned to the hallway.
"Just lock him up. Grandpa wouldn't want him to be hurt. Tessa said softly.
"Don't worry. I know what to do." Landon reassured her gently holding her hand. "Let's go check on Grandpa. "Okay." It was getting late. Since the food Tessa had brought was ruined, she simply had the hospital staff deliver a nutritious meal instead.
Walter was sitting up in bed after eating, looking apologetic. "It's my fault for not teaching him properly. I must have made a fool of myself in front of Landon "Grandpa, don't think about it. Right now, the most important thing is to rest well. The surgery is the day after tomorrow." Tessa held his hand in comfort.
"Don't worry. I'll make sure I'm in the best condition for the surgery. It's getting late. You both should get srest too. Don't collapse before I even make it to the operating table." "Alright, Grandpa." After helping Walter lie down, Tessa and Landon left the room.
At that moment, Samuel happened to approach them.
He had heard about Yardley causing trouble and couldn't help sighing. "Tessa, I really don't think there's 1/2 + Pearis As soon as he said that, Landon shot him a cold glance but didn't say anything.
"Let's talk about it after the surgery, Tessa replied. Right now, she didn't want to think about it.
"Csleep in my office. The hospital director fixed icop nicely for me. It's way more comfortable than a hospital room Tessa and Landon had been staying in a VIP room nexto Walter's to be closer to him.
The thought of Tessa and Landon sharing a room made Samuel deeply upset. Why should Landon get such special treatment? "No need. This is fine," Tessa refused.
Landon had originally felt like finishing Samuel off, but after hearing Tessa's answer, his mood immediately lightened.

It didn't matter what Samuel said or did - as long as Tessa's heart wasn't with him, nothing else matteredm Without a word Landon possessively wrapped his arm around Tessa's shoulder and led her straight into the adjacent VIP room, slamming the door right in Samuel's face without even glancing back. Dammit! Samuel couldn't help cursing as he stared at the closed door.
He desperately wanted to fight Landon - but unfortunately, his strength wasn't nearly enough. He could only bitterly flip him the middle finger.
The day before Walter's surgery, Lila and Winona, having noticed that Yardley still hadn't returned, grew increasingly anxious.
Using the excuse of visiting Walter, they tried to get him to allocate m Sinclair Corp's assets before the surgery. They didn't want Tessa to inherit everything if the old man didn't make it through. After all, they had heard the surgery was very risky - there was a high chance Walter wouldn't survive the operating table.
But before they even stepped into the ward, they were stopped by the werewolf warriors standing guard at the door.
All they heard was Walter's stern voice coming from inside the room. "I will have the surgeryno matter what.
As for Sinclair Corp- I will leave it all to Tessa. You can object all you want. It won't change a thing" €10
