NovelEnglishChapter 314 Useless Words +8 Pearls "Relax. I've got Michael watching my back here in Yalvaria-no one dares lay a hand on me." Samuel's voice was light, but his words carried sharpness. "I just called because I'm worried about you. That bastard still hasn't given up." "I know. Don't worry about me. No one can hurt me-even he can't." As long as she didn't want to be caught, she wouldn't be. "Just make sure you take care of yourself. Don't let him catch you." She'd followed Samuel to Yalvaria and entered the infamous Hell Training Camp- enduring trials that most people would have crumbled under.
That was also where she first met that twisted, obsessive man...
A man who understood her too well-and knew Samuel was her only weakness.
"Relax. I won't let anyone useto threaten you." Samuel wasn't as strong as Tessa, but he knew how to survive.
Besides, he always carried a special escape serum-something he'd developed himself. Even against an alpha king, he could still buy enough tto slip away. "Mm. I'm hanging up now," Tessa said, about to end the call. "What? You haven't seenin forever, and you're not even gonna say you missed me? You can't giveone nice word?" Samuel grumbled, obviously annoyed.
He worried about her day and night, and she could be so... cold.

And it had only been three days since they last saw each other.
"Just say you missed me," he said, full of arrogant expectation.
"What? It's just a sentence! You can't even givethat? I'd throw my life away for you, but when it comes to you- "Samuel, you're not a child anymore." And with that, she hung up without a second thought.
She didn't need to hear whatever immature nonsense he had lined up next.
Samuel stared at the dial tone in disbelief. She'd actually hung up.
He yanked the phone away from his ear and saw the call had ended.
"Damn it!" he growled, frustrated. "Tessa, you're too ruthless! You really hung up on me! I swear, I'll-" But halfway through his rant, he fizzled out like a deflated balloon.
What was the point? No matter how many threats he made, if Tessa called, he'd drop everything and run 1/2 Chapter 314 Useless Words to her anyway.
Sigh...
Samuel slumped back, feeling tragically defeated.
"Tessa, you heartless brat... Being your friend is more exhausting than being your dad..." +8 Pearls The next morning, Landon arrived early to drive Tessa to Sinclair Corp.
"I'll cpick you up after the shareholders' meeting ends," he said as they pulled up outside the building.
He knew she didn't want him involved in this matter, so this was his compromise.

"Mm." Landon nodded. After she got out of the car, he drove away.
Not far off, Yardley had been waiting in his car, hoping to speak with m Landon but just as he stepped out, Landon had already driven off.
He turned and found Tessa staring at him-expressionless.
Yardley's face burned with embarrassment, but he forced himself to approach her.
"Tessa... no matter what, I'm still your father. You wouldn't wantto lose too badly, right? You've already got Alpha Landon now-anything you want, it's yours. Isn't that enough?"
It was a last-ditch plea. He couldn't stand the thought of losing Sinclair Corp. It was the only thing he truly had-his last claim to power. Tessa frowned. "So?" What are you even trying to say with all this nonsense? 1.3K 1 2/2 4:24 pm MM Love the Wolfless Power Girl at First Sight
