“Con, let's go eat! My uncle's already waiting downstairs,” Ysabel said with a cheerful grin. After an
exhausting morning, she was truly starving.
“Alright, let's go.”
Ms. Tessa tidied up the documents on her desk and stood up. But her mind was still occupied by what Avery had
said.
Avery was someone who loved music deeply. He'd stayed with the band through its toughest times. How could
someone like that suddenly feel tired and want to leave? There had to be another reason-something more than
he was letting on.
But what exactly was it?
“Tessa, what are you thinking about?” Ysabel asked, realizing she was being completely ignored. She had to stop
walking just to get her attention.
Ms. Tessa snapped back to reality. “It’s nothing. Let's go.”
The two of them left TS Entertainment and got into Landon’s car.

Ms. Tessa didn’t say a word the entire ride. Ysabel, sensing her mood, also kept quiet. Landon focused on driving,
but he noticed right away-she was distracted.
She had something on her mind.
Was there trouble at TS Entertainment?
When they got back to the Wisteria Apartment, the housekeeper had already prepared lunch-a well- balanced
spread that looked and smelled amazing.
Ysabel was thrilled. She sat down eagerly; she hadn't felt this hungry in ages.
“Ma’am, your cooking is amazing!” she said sweetly, her words warm and full of praise.
“As long as you like it. If there's anything special you want, just letknow and I'll make it for dinner,” the lady
replied with a smile.
“I like everything you make.”
Landon quietly served a bowl of soup for Ms. Tessa. She took a few sips, only ate half a piece of bread, and
barely touched the dishes.
After lunch, Ysabel helped the housekeeper clear the table, while Landon brought Ms. Tessa into the study.
“What's going on? You're not yourself. You barely ate lunch,” he asked gently.
Any small change in her, he could sense immediately.
“Avery says he wants to leave the Avery band.”
That... well, whether he stayed or not, it was Avery's choice. No one could make that decision for him.

“Did he give a reason?” If it was a valid one, maybe it could be understood.

“He didn’t. But | don’t think it's that simple.” She knew how much Avery loved the band. There was no way he'd
walk away so easily-not without something forcing his hand.
“So what are you going to do?” She'd started TS Entertainment for the Avery band, hadn't she?
“I don’t know.” This wasn’t a simple issue. But she also didn’t want to pressure Avery. So right now, she honestly
didn’t know what to do.
“Give it stime. Maybe Avery just needs a few days to cool off. Could be a spur-of-the-moment decision.”
“It’s not impulsive. He's probably been thinking about it for a while.”
“Do you think... it’s because of me? Maybe he likes you, but your fated mate is me.” If that were the reason,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLandon could understand.
“No way.” That wasn't it. Avery wasn’t that kind of person.
“Alright. Then I'll look into it for you.” The only way to fix this was to find the root cause.
“I'll handle it myself.”
The bond between her and the other members of the Avery band wasn’t something outsiders could fully
understand. Whatever it was, she wanted to deal with it on her own.
“Okay, | get it.” If she didn’t want him involved, he wouldn't force it. But it hurt to see her so upset.
“Do you wantto talk to Avery?” Sometimes, things were easier said between men.
“No need. | don’t want anyone else to know about this just yet. Don’t worry-I'll take care of it myself.” No matter
what happened, she just hoped Avery was following his heart.
The rest didn’t matter as much.
“Alright.” Landon would always support any decision she made.
“By the way, about the fragmented Wolf Codex you mentioned yesterday-I've already sent someone to the
Nightshade Pack’s library to look into it. Their archives are the most complete in the werewolf world. Scrolls like
this are usually well preserved, but they don’t have digital records, so it'll take stto locate. As soon as
there's any news, I'll let you know.”
