"Tessie, who's coming to the parent-teacher conference this afternoon from your family?"

"No one." Tessa didn't want to bother her grandfather, given his age, and she hadn't even mentioned the meeting to Yardley and Lila.

"Oh, that's okay! My uncle is coming, and I asked him to bring Nathaniel with him to cover for us," Ysabel suggested.

It was indeed strange; her dad couldn't make it due to a business trip, and considering Landon, the alpha of the Nightshade Pack and CEO of Thorne Corp, was even busier, it was surprising how quickly he agreed to help when she mentioned it.

It looks like my uncle really does care!

"It's no trouble at all," Tessa replied indifferently.

"Not at all," Ysabel insisted warmly. "Tessie, you're my friend, so my uncle is your uncle too. Wait up, I'll call him right now."

By noon, Landon and Nathaniel had joined them at Wisteria Apartment for lunch.

Seeing the two men dressed to the nines, both Tessa and Ysabel couldn't help but smirk. It was just a parent-teacher conference. Did they really need to dress up so much?

"What do you think about our outfits today, Ysabel?" Nathaniel asked, standing up to show off his carefully chosen ensemble.
