THE DIVORCE GAMBIT From Dumped Wife to CEO's Forever novel Chapter 1041

Caitlin looked at Adler, her expression serious. "She is her own person, and you are yours. Instructor Adler, you don't need to take responsibility for Charis's actions."

Caitlin had always been clear about who was to blame for what.

Since Adler had nothing to do with this from the start, she wouldn't direct her anger toward him.

Besides, the fact that he hadn't abused his power to interfere in Charis's situation proved that he was different from her.

At that, Caitlin glanced at her phone. "Instructor Adler, my parents are waiting for me up ahead. I should go."

"Of course," Adler said, breathing a sigh of relief. "I should get going too."

After Caitlin led Monday away, Adler didn't leave immediately.

A moment later, Adler's subordinate, Bain, came jogging over from the side, panting. "Mr. Adler, there you are! I've been looking all over for you."

The two of them had entered the airport together just moments ago.

But in the blink of an eye, Adler had vanished.

When Adler didn't respond, Bain found it odd and looked up at him.

He saw Adler staring blankly into the distance.

"I wasn't looking at anything," Adler replied.

Bain followed Adler's gaze and then seemed to have a sudden realization. "Oh, I get it, Mr. Adler. Were you on a date just now?" No wonder he'd slipped away so fast.

He had disappeared in a flash.

At those words, Adler immediately looked away. "What date? What the hell are you talking about? I just ran into someone I know."

Someone he knew?

If it was just an acquaintance, why would Adler still be standing here long after she had left?

Bain narrowed his eyes. "I get it, I get it. This acquaintance was a woman, right?"

"You don't know a damn thing!" Adler snapped, turning to walk away.

Bain hurried to catch up. "Hahaha! I hit the nail on the head, didn't I? Mr. Adler, look, you're even blushing."
