Chapter 90


Stephen ran to catch up to her, but a man appeared out of nowhere and blocked his path.

The man collided head-on with Stephen, spilling wine all over him.

Stephen had no time to deal with him. He was tense as he tried to move past the man.

The man, however, stood in his way and repeatedly apologized. "I'm sorry, Mr. Jacobson. I didn't mean it. How about I take your clothes to be dry cleaned?"

"It's fine." Stephen stepped to the side to bypass him.

But the man mirrored his movement. "Mr. Jacobson, I am terribly sorry. Please don't be angry with me."

Stephen became furious and shouted, "Get out of my way!"

The man rubbed his nose and stepped aside.
