As the car pulled out of the alley, the driver spotted a woman standing in the middle of the road.

He glanced at the rearview mirror. “Mr. Adler, there’s a woman blocking the road up ahead.”

The car slowed slightly, waiting for instructions.

“Go around her,” Richard said flatly.

He’d gotten up early that morning–much earlier than usual. After last night’s chaos on X, he suspected Tinley might confront him, so he slipped out of the house by 7 a.m., planning to check in at both the office and construction site. He wasn’t just early. He was strategic.

Yvonne didn’t leave for school until 9 a.m., which meant Tinley wouldn’t have the time to argue with him until after that.

By figuring out the Holmes family’s schedule, Richard had basically unlocked cheat mode: leave before Yvonne’s day starts, come home after she’s back, and as long as the little one’s around, no one would give him a hard time.

At the moment, he was feeling rather smug. He’d show Tinley just how sharp a seasoned man could be.

The driver began to turn the wheel, but the woman ahead must’ve realized she was about to be bypassed.

A flicker of hesitation crossed her face, then she gritted her teeth and charged toward the car with desperate resolve.

The bodyguards waiting near the alley quickly stepped in to block her.

She struggled, clearly unwilling to give up.

Richard’s good mood vanished. His expression darkened. “Ask her what she wants,” he said.

Seeing the car stop beside her, the woman’s eyes lit up with hope. Just judging by the car model, she could tell whoever was inside was someone important.

Once the driver asked, the bodyguards eased their grip.

She leaned in, speaking loudly with pleading eyes: “Sir, my husband is the CEO of Grizzlyworld Corp. I’m here to apologize.”

The driver relayed her words verbatim.

Richard looked out the window, his brows knitting. His voice was cold.

“What, the company’s run out of men? Had to send a woman to say sorry?”
