The news about Axiom Flux Technologies had already reached the Ross family.

Charlene's recent success made both Vernon and Helena genuinely happy for

her.

To celebrate, the family decided to take her out for lunch that Saturday.

As Vernon's car approached the restaurant and was about to enter the parking

garage, another car nearly sideswiped them. The other driver had clearly

misjudged their speed-it was obviously their fault-but Vernon, ever the

gentleman who believed in keeping the peace, decided not to make a fuss.

Technically, Vernon had the right of way; his car was ahead, and he should have

entered first. But the other driver tried to cut him off. Vernon frowned, rolled down

his window, and prepared to reason with them.

It seemed the other party also wanted to make their case; their window came

down at the same time.

But as soon as Vernon saw who was sitting inside, his expression turned icy.

Henley hadn't expected to see Vernon and Helena either. Whatever words she'd

had ready died in her throat.

Maureen, sitting in the passenger seat, and Katie Hawkins in the back, along with

Georgina Spencer in the following car, all recognized Vernon as well.

None of them could quite believe the coincidence.

Vernon turned his gaze away and, before Henley could react, drove his car

smoothly into the garage.
