The atmosphere in the dining room was heavy. Neither Walter nor Yardley had any appetite. Only Tessa ate her breakfast as usual.

She even took the time to gently nudge Walter, “Grandpa, just for you, won’t pursue what happened last night. But you should eat something. You’re still not fully recovered–you can’t skip meals.”

Walter let out a long sigh. “Tessic, we didn’t raise her right. You’ve had to suffer for it.”

“Tessie, don’t worry. I’ll be sure to discipline her properly,” Yardley added, his tone bordering on sycophantic.

Tessa ignored him and kept cating.

“Enough!” Yardley slammed the table, cutting Lila off. His voice thundered with anger. “If you hadn’t spoiled her all this time, would she have turned out like this?”

“But Dad, this was clearly Tessa’s fault-”

Before Winona could finish, Yardley slapped her hard across the face. “And you! Didn’t I warn you not to hurt Tessa? Do you think I was just talking to the wind?!”
