Fell for the Alpha-less Queen

Chapter 505 A Price Worth Paying

Samuel went down to bring Michael upstairs.

"Go fetch me a glass of water," Michael said the moment he entered, clearly

flustered from rushing over without so much as a drink.

"I'll do it," Tessa offered, standing up.

"No need. Samuel can handle that."

Samuel rolled his eyes.

Seriously?

He was Michael's own apprentice-wasn't he supposed to be treated better?

Still, he got up to get the water. There was no helping it. Michael was Michael.

The man had countless ways of making his life miserable if he didn't obey.

Only after downing a full glass did Michael finally seem to regain his composure.

He looked at Tessa intently.

"Tessa, can I ask you something?"

"Of course." She still respected him deeply, no matter the situation.

"Why did you choose Werewolf Navoris Hospital?"

"Because I think studying medicine is the same wherever you go."

"Fine. Then why not the Werewolf Medical Organization?" That, after all, was

where the best went to learn medicine.

"Because it's too far. I don't want to be on a plane all the time."

Michael fell silent, lost in thought.

"Michael, you okay? Don't scare yourself into a breakdown over this If it really

comes to it, you can always take your time finding another successor," Samuel

teased, half-joking, half-serious. The man wasn't young anymore-he couldn't

afford that kind of stress.

"Michael, you don't have to insist on me, anyway. Samuel's capable enough to

take over."

Samuel almost choked. "Tessa, what's your problem? You back out and push me

into the fire

tead?"

He had no interest in becoming anyone's successor. He liked his freedom-noveldrama

traveling wherever he pleased, doing research when he wanted. Taking over

meant responsibility, rules, no more doing things on a whim.

Then Michael suddenly spoke. "So it's just a matter of location? What if I move the

Werewolf Medical Organization to Murica?"

Samuel froze, stunned.

"Michael, are you out of your mind?" A massive organization like that-how could it

just uproot on a whim?

Chapter 505 A Price Worth Paying

Michael shot him a sharp look. "No one asked you to speak."

When it came to advancing medical science, Michael would sacrifice anything.

He was a medical fanatic through and through. To him, nothing-not borders, not

bloodlines-stood above the pursuit of life's mysteries.

Even Tessa hadn't expected that. "Michael, are you serious?"

All this... just because of her?

"You only need to tell me this-if I move the Organization here, will you join? The

rest isn't your concern."

If he could say it, he had the means to make it happen.

Tessa glanced at Samuel.

And Samuel knew-Michael meant every word.

If Tessa said yes, no matter the cost, Michael would bring the entire Organization

to Murica.

If that happened, there'd be nothing holding her back.

"Alright. If that's really the case, I'll join."

She hadn't planned to negotiate.

She'd never felt particularly compelled to join the Organization.

But Michael... he'd truly moved her.

He'd spent half his life in Yalvaria.

And now, just to bring her on board, he was willing to leave it all behind. She

admired that deeply.

"Good. I'll head back and start preparing. Samuel, you stay here and find a

location."

The Organization covered a huge amount of land.

They'd need to purchase property and build from scratch.

The whole process would probably take two or three years.

But that didn't matter. If it meant Tessa would join, it was worth it.

"Got it, Michael. Don't worry-I'll handle everything here." After all, he was from

Murica.

Bringing the Organization here could only benefit the country.

Michael had already planned to build a branch here and had wanted Samuel to

take the lead. Now, with the headquarters relocating entirely for Tessa, he had

even more reason to step up.
