When Tinley came out with Yvonne, she saw at a glance the two people standing outside.

She believed it was understandable for them to harbor resentment in their hearts and that they would return to working diligently
after their resentment dissipated.
If they had no resentment. Tinley might feel uneasy.
As they passed by, Yvonne waved her hand and greeted them politely. “Hello. Mr. Sterling and Mr. Xander. It’s good to see you...
The expressions of the two men behind her grew even darker as if they had planned it.
nsten out of his
This was like forcing a reclusive yet financially secure man, who had no worries about food or shelter, to step comfort zone and
work. Moreover, he needed to stay by his superior’s side.
“Good to see us? How can it possibly be good? Grave and Frost thought.
They didn’t speak, their eyes staring blankly at her, numb and empty from life’s hardships.
Yvonne felt a pang of disappointment, but then she remembered their situation, and her disappointment vanished.
“They didn’t reply to me not because they didn’t want to, she thought. ‘It was because they were ill. Poor guys!
Her face was an open book. Whatever she thought, it showed on her face. The two men trailing behind her could see pity in her
eyes
Such a gentle and lovely face, with a pitiful look, made people feel even softer.
the two men, who felt invisibly mocked, couldn’t soften their hearts.
It was not until Tinley walked a long way that the two stiff bodies began to move
“As expected of her child, Grave said as he thought, ‘Even their means of oppressing their subordinates are the same. I was so
naïve as to think that hule villain was cute.
Tinley slowed down a little after walking out for some time.
Sensing her intention, Wendy stepped forward, leveled with her, and leaned in.
Madam Tinley would not suddenly slow down, Wendy thought. Once this happens, nine times out of ten, she has something to
say
Sure enough, after leaning in, she heard Tinley’s voice. “Contact Henry and ask him to wait for me at the Holmes residence.
Henry ran the most profitable entertainment company, but it was the worst–performing business among all the Holmes family’s
ventures.
Perhaps his colleagues were so good at making money that they made him appear somewhat incompetent.
Because of this, he didn’t show up at the Holmes residence often
He knew his performance was lackluster, so he never visited the Holmes family unless he had a specific reason.
Even though everyone in the group chatted about how adorable Yvonne was and most of his colleagues were planning to visit
the Holmes family and play with her, Henry, despite being curious and eager to go, kept quiet in the end.

The reason was simply that he was too spineless.
He avoided his boss out of shame for has terrible performance and fear of drawing attention to his dismal track record.
In short, Henry was a man who couldn’t hold his head high anywhere except in front of his employees.
Upon receiving Wendy’s message, without even inquiring about the details, he was already overwhelmed by a bad feeling that
something was wrong.
It was only natural for him to think that way. It was like when a salesperson whose performance had been consistently at the
bottom of the company suddenly got called into the boss’s office alone. Anyone in that situation would feel uneasy.
As the driver drove him to the Holmes residence, Henry thought that if God gave him another chance, he might as well enter the
entertainment industry as a celebrity and earn money for Tinley.
Perhaps sensing his anxiety, the driver in front of him kindly tried to lighten the mood. “Mr. Bell, look on the bright side. At least
you can see Yvonne. You’ve always been curious about her, haven’t you?”
It was better not to mention it, but the mention of it made Henry feel even more nervous.
“What if Yvonne is there when Madam Tinley scolds me? Then, Yvonne’s impression of me would be a useless and scolded.
adult. Just thinking about it made him feel it was a terrifying prospect.
Henry’s expression was indifferent, his voice flat. “Good advice, but don’t give it again. Just focus on driving”
The driver let out an “oh” and fell silent.
No matter how reluctant he was, Henry finally arrived at the Holmes residence.
But he was a little early. Tinley hadn’t returned yet.
A few days ago, Henry had already learned from his colleagues private chat group that Tinley was gradually returning to the
state she was in four years ago, so he wasn’t surprised when Tinley left home with Yvonne to attend a party.
People were discussing it in his group chat every day.
It was more of a Tinley’s fan group or Yvonne’s fan clubs than a colleague group.
Every morning, as soon as he opened his eyes, he would turn on his phone to see all kinds of news about Tinley and Yvonne.
y time
In addition to him, the other colleagues who often visited the Holmes family would secretly take a few photos every time they
went there and then post them in the group chat for everyone to appreciate.
They were like crazy fans.
Henry touched his phone. A sense of anticipation arose as he thought, It’s finally my turn to take pictures!
When it came to news about the Holmes family, these people were always the first to hear. Rumors of him being summoned to
the Holmes residence had already spread, and someone was now messaging about it in the chat, tagging him relentlessly.
He knew what it was about without even looking at it. It was nothing more than asking him to take good photos.
Henry remained aloof and didn’t reply, only waiting expectantly at the Holmes residence.
He arrived early and waited for nearly three hours. It wasn’t until the afternoon that Tinley and Yvonne, who had gone out to
attend a party, returned.
He even had lunch at the Holmes residence since he was hungry.

Finally, hearing the servants talking, he stood up from his chair and hurried out
Unfortunately, he was disappointed again, as he still didn’t see Yvonne, the one he had longed for
KR79%
Now that the only person who could comfort him was not there, Henry wanted to ask Wendy as he followed behind But Wendy
was walking too closely to Tinley, and he was afraid that calling out to her would alarm Tinley
After following them for a while, he finally got his chance.
While Tinley was on the phone, he stealthily pulled Wendy aude from behind.
Turning around, Wendy saw it was him and showed no surprise at all.
As if she knew what he wanted to ask, Wendy calmly said, “Madam Tinley is in a good mood. It’s not about your performance, so
don’t worry.”
Wendy was so used to these things that she didn’t even need to wait for them to ask.
This was because she had been with Tinley the longest and knew Tinley the best. In the past few years, Tinley was in a bad
mood. So, whenever someone came to the Holmes residence, they would first ask her about Tinley’s mood
Although it was no use asking, at least they could be mentally prepared and not die too suddenly.
Wendy thought that was what Henry wanted to ask.
But hearing her words, Henry shook his head and said, “That’s not what I wanted to ask.”
He glanced at Tinley, leaned closer, and whispered, “Where is Yvonne? Didn’t she go to the party with Madam Tinley: Why didn’t
she come back?”
So that’s what he wants to know. Wendy lifted her chin and looked toward the door, gesturing for him to look over. “Adler family
picked Yvonne up as soon as she left the car. You could have seen her if you had gone out two minutes earlier.”
Wendy couldn’t help but think, These people from the Adler family didn’t care that much. Yvonne had just gotten home when
they picked her up to play at their place. They won’t bring her back until dinnertime or bedtime.
“What’s even worse is that Richard is somewhat unruly.
“Sometimes, he even takes Yvonne out to play directly. Like last time, he took her away in the car and only let the bodyguards
inform us after they had gone far away.
can control him, Richard doesn’t even take pictures
“Relying on his age as the oldest of the two families, and no one c anymore. He only chases after Yvonne all day long
Wendy sighed as she continued, ‘Everyone could tell he did that because he wanted to show off, but when you mentioned it. he
had all the excuses ready. He said he wanted to take Yvonne out to make more friends.
When Yvonne was back, I asked her. She did make friends, but they were all cats and dogs.
Wendy could almost picture the scene where Richard was sitting there chatting with others while Yvonne was running around the
yard with a cat in her arms, being chased by a dog.
The poor girl might even giggle and say how much fun it is, and her expensive custom coat is covered in cat and dog hair.
Wendy thought.
