“Mr. Yardley really must be very busy,” one of the shareholders sneered. “Even a meeting this important couldn't
make him show up on time. If he doesn’t even care about Sinclair Corp, why insist on clinging to the executive
seat?”
“Exactly,” another chimed in. “If he’s late to something like this, makes you wonder how often is he late the rest
of the time? Does he even care about our interests as shareholders?”
They hadn't invested in Sinclair Corp to be toyed with. This was business, not a joke.
Lila stood awkwardly, unable to offer any reasonable explanation. She genuinely didn’t know where Yardley had
gone or what had happened to him. Feeling everyone's eyes on her, she turned toward Tessa.
“Tessa, do you know where your father went? We're a family! You can’t just let these people bully your
mother!”
Alone in the room and clearly overwhelmed, Lila was scrambling to find any ally-even if it meant pleading with
Tessa.
But Tessa’s expression didn’t waver.
“If you can’t handle this environment, then you shouldn't have come. This is a company, not a living room. I'm
not going to take your side just because we're related.”
She made her stance perfectly clear.
“You!” Lila snapped, her frustration boiling over into accusation. “You're just afraid your father will win the vote
and stay in power, aren’t you? You must've done something to him-kept him from coming here!”
Her nails lengthened slightly—an instinctive display of aggression unique to werewolves.

Tessa had always known what kind of person Lila was. Spineless, dependent, easily swayed. But even so— she
had once respected her, if only because she had given birth to her.
But today?
Today she had truly crossed the line.
Was this really something a mother should say to her daughter?
She had no evidence-none-and yet she was ready to accuse her and even attack her.
Disappointment chilled Tessa’s heart, deeper than she expected.
“I'm not like you,” she said coldly. “You're willing to hurt your own family for status, power, and resources.
I'm not.”
Don’t asseveryone is as shameless as you are.
Donald, who'd been listening silently, finally spoke up-unable to stand it any longer.

What kind of circus family does this girl have to deal with?

“Ms. Lila, I'm sorry, but even | can’t let that slide. | saw Mr. Yardley earlier today. If he’s not here yet, it’s not
because he’s afraid of losing. Either way, the outcwon’t change. Let's just start the meeting.”
No need to waste ton a man who couldn't even show
up on time.
“You-!" Lila glared at Donald, but the moment his sharp, dominant gaze swept over her, she immediately shut
her mouth. She didn’t dare say another word.
Everyone here was terrifying. She had no place in this world of alphas and boardroom wolves.
Just then, the door swung open.
“Mr. Donald, you sure are quick to judge.” Yardley strode in, full of confidence.
His steps, however, were slightly unsteady, and a flicker of werewolf-gold shimmered deep in his pupils.
He'd had... a small incident carlier.

With a slight smirk, Yardley took his place at the table.
At last, everyone was present.
The shareholders’ meeting officially began.
