Love the Wolfless Power Girl at First Sight

Chapter 456 Gone Without a Trace

Ethan stayed silent.

He stood off to the side, eyes fixed on Tessa.

At this point, she was his last hope.

He wasn’t the type to give up until the very end.

Simon stood by too, at a loss for what else he could do.

If Ethan and Tessa hadn’t given up, how could he?

“Tessa, is there anything I can do to help?” he asked. At the very least, he was a trained professional–maybe his help could make a difference.

But Tessa only shook her head.

“You can’t help with this.”

She wasn’t trying to be rude–it was simply the truth.

Simon opened his mouth, then shut it again.

The feeling of helplessness stung more than he expected.

He’d always been someone who tried his hardest. But sometimes, effort alone wasn’t enough.

He had done everything he could.

And it still wasn’t enough.
