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–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.
