At the hospital, Walter was delighted to see Camille again. Back when Tessa was little, she and Camille had been inseparable–always hanging around the Sinclair estate like it was their second home.

“Camille, you haven’t come to visit me in foreyer,” Walter teased, a smile playing at his wrinkled face. “What, did you forget about this old man?”

Camille giggled as she peeled fruit for him and poured a cup of warm water.

“Mr. Walter, you’re just like my real grandfather. How could I forget you? I was just so upset after Tessie got sent to Falindale… I couldn’t bring myself to visit.”

Back then, she’d been young and powerless. Tessa’s fall from grace had haunted her–because she’d been completely unable to help.

“Don’t bring up the past,” Walter waved it off. “Tessie went to Falindale and still came out shining.”

“She did. Tessa’s always been the best, no matter where she is.”

Camille still had a late–night show to record, so her manager came to pick her up.

Back in the hospital room, Tessa and Landon remained. Landon stayed by Walter’s side the entire time, calmly chatting with the old man as if nothing else in the world mattered.
