Henry was very unhappy. He stared directly at Tess, who was standing behind the two of them.

Tess didn’t react much; she just looked back at him coldly. Her unfamiliar, distant expression confused him.

She was a well–behaved and considerate daughter just a few years ago. Did she think she was so grown up now?

“Tess, this is all your fault. If you don’t give blood to Nadine, I will never forgive you.”

Henry stared into Tess’s eyes, waiting for a reaction.

But things didn’t go the way he expected.

Tess didn’t react at all. The only thing that moved was her eyes, which showed no extra emotion. She wasn’t trying to get his approval like he thought she would.

“Pfft.”

The strange silence in the operating room broke with Tess’s quiet laugh.

Her tone was very sarcastic, and her eyes were full of scorn. “Forgive me?”

Those two simple words were enough to show how sad and disappointed Tess was.

She looked up, and the smile on her lips disappeared. “Dad, this is the last time you’ll hear me say that. From now on, I should be the one forgiving you.”

Then she stood up.

Abel saw it and quickly got up to throw the ropes on her to the side.

Tess clapped her hands and stood up straight.

Henry’s face was dark, and he watched her every move.

“I’ve already decided to cut all ties with the Embers. Not only will I not donate blood to Nadine, but I’ll also be pressing charges for kidnapping me and attempting to force me.”

Tess’s face darkened, and her cold words hung in the air of the operating room, like a sudden cold snap.

Henry was so furious that his eyes rolled back. He pressed a hand to his chest and nearly stumbled backward.

Kylie gasped and rushed forward to steady him, but her eyes kept darting toward Tess.

But Tess didn’t spare her a single glance.

She walked straight to the door, ignoring the doctors, nurses, and Heidi, who stood hesitating in her path.

“Don’t get in my way, or I’ll sue you all together.”

She suddenly smiled, showing her white teeth in a creepy grin.

The doctors and nurses flinched and quickly backed away.

Heidi tried to stand her ground. “Te-”

Before she could finish, Tess shoved her aside.

Abel followed closely behind Tess, and his eyes lit up as he watched her badass actions.

Connor noticed Abel’s barely hidden smile and felt annoyed. The usually calm man childishly followed them.

Henry was furious that Tess was actually leaving him behind. His eyes were red with anger, and he slapped the operating table. “Tess, if you walk out of here today, I will publicly cut you off completely. From now on, you will no longer be a member of the Embers, and you won’t get a single thing that the old woman left for you!”

He had a feeling about Tess’s changes, but he knew she still cared about that dead old woman, so he used her as a threat.

Tess stopped walking, just as he thought she would.

Henry was about to smile, thinking he had won, but Tess just waved her hand. “Whatever.

“Oh, by the way.”

She turned around.

“Since we’ve cut ties, if you insult my grandma again and I hit you, don’t say I didn’t consider our family ties.

“As for my grandma’s things, I’ll get them back myself.

“Even if I have to take them by force.”

Her arrogant words still lingered in the air as Tess pushed open the operating room door and walked away.

Her confident, carefree back felt like a slap to everyone in the room.

Henry’s face turned ashen. He wanted to follow, but a long shadow blocked him. “Mr. Ember, Zane will be here soon. I’ve asked him to contact every hospital in Aetheris to check their blood banks. We’ll have Nadine try each one.”

At those words, Nadine looked up at Finn in surprise.

His face remained expressionless, and his deep eyes unreadable.

“Finn, the doctor said my blood type is rare. So far, only Tessa is a match … ”

She held her hospital gown tightly, and her fingertips turned white, just like her pale face.

Nadine’s weak, teary look made Henry feel sad. He looked at Finn in confusion. “Mr. Lock, it’s just a blood donation from Tess. She’s so selfish. Why are you siding with her?”

Finn’s whole vibe went cold, a sharp glint of anger flashing in his eyes. “Tess is right. If she doesn’t want to donate blood, it’s illegal for you to force her.”

Nadine saw Finn’s face get colder and had to push down her frustration. She looked up and said to him in a small, sweet voice, “Finn, we didn’t force her. It’s just… if Tess hadn’t been so mean, I wouldn’t have caused so much trouble for Mom and Dad. That’s why Dad was so anxious …
