Chapter 322 Breaking the Chains

The moment Yardley caught the subtle shift in Tessa’s scent–sharp, chaotic, laced with suppressed anxiety -he smiled with smug satisfaction.

See? No one was unbreakable. You just had to find the right weakness, and the strongest person would crack.

But that flicker of triumph didn’t last long.

Tessa’s wolf energy surged like a storm. The air turned heavy. The tiled floor beneath her began to fracture beneath the weight of her pressure.

She marched toward him, eyes burning cold.

“You kidnapped Grandpa?” Her voice was low, steady–but the rage was coiled tightly beneath.

Yardley, ever shameless, feigned concern. “I didn’t have a choice. If you’d just listen to me, be a good girl, none of this would’ve happened. I’m only doing this for the family. So, for everyone’s sake, why don’t you just step down today?”

His tone was smooth, coaxing, as if he were the victim here.

“In your dreams.”

“You-!” Yardley hadn’t expected such a hard rejection.

“Tessa, I’m warning you. Don’t push me. I can do anything. And to think… after everything, Walter still favored you-”

“If he gets even a scratch because of you, I will pay it back a thousandfold.”

Yardley staggered.
