After sending off the finalized proposal for Sinclair Corporation's new initiative, Tessa stretched her arms, her fingertips gliding across the performance projection chart on the screen.

Reginald had asked her to surpass the White family within three months. But with Sinclair Corporation's current pace of expansion-paired with its exclusive access to the werewolf pharmaceutical pipeline via the Aurora Project-that was hardly a challenge.

After all, from the moment she took over, her goal had been to raise Sinclair Corporation to a level where it could stand toe-to-toe with Thorne Corp.

She flipped casually through a few pages of a reference book when her phone suddenly buzzed. The name "Louis" flashed on the screen.

On the way, the old man didn't stop muttering. "Louis is getting more and more out of line... A little thing like this and he goes running to you..."

"Grandpa, Louis is doing it for your own good. If you're not feeling well, of course you need to get checked out!" How could he keep avoiding doctors?

With Tessa, the old man had no room to argue. When she scolded him, he nodded immediately.

"I know you're right. But I know my body. It's really nothing."
