Living With My Lady Boss romance Capítulo 33

Jose's forehead was filled with sweat, and he bowed deeply to Wilbur. "Young man, I admit that I was boasting earlier. Please forgive me."

"That's right. Please spare us and show mercy," Mike piped up as well.

Wilbur's expression darkened, and he turned to look at Mike. "Show you mercy? I don't remember you being merciful earlier."

Mike's expression turned ugly from his anger, unable to say anything else.

Jose knew he had messed up, but those words he said earlier were merely a boast! He was not going to take off himself just like that.

He looked at Wilbur with an apologetic expression. "It's my fault for not knowing my items, young man. I'm sorry. I'm willing to compensate you ten million dollars in exchange for your forgiveness."

Wilbur smiled. Of course, he was not going to make Jose take his own life over such a trivial matter.

However, the 10,000,000 dollars was another matter. After all, the two had been quite rude to him earlier.

Wilbur wet his finger with the tea from John's teacup, then wrote down his account numbers on the table. "Very well. I'll take you up on that offer." After saying that, he got up and left.

Just then, Jose let out a long sigh. He memorized the number in his head as he fumed, "Motherf*cker. You really screwed me over this time, Duran Jarin. I'm going to get you for sure."

Upon speaking, he first transferred the money over to Wilbur's account before saying to Mike, "My apologies, Mister Cannon. Let me take care of Duran, and I'll return to Seechertown and provide you with a proper settlement. Please rest assured."

Mike could only nod as Jose left furiously. That man had really embarrassed him big time.

Not long after Jose had left, Faye came down to the main hall with the man and woman from earlier.

Faye glanced at the empty hall and said, "Mister Cannon, wasn't there going to be an auction? Where did everyone go?"

"It has ended," Mike said, embarrassed.

Faye shrugged, nodding her head. "I'll be going too, then."

Upon speaking, Faye turned and left.

The girl shook her head slowly, her eyes teary. Faye looked at Wilbur, slightly perplexed by the situation.

Wilbur frowned. "I think we should still take you there in case anything happens."

He had actually used his spirit energy to inspect the girl's whole body, and it was nothing serious.

He was certain that the girl had run into some kind of trouble, and that was why she was in this state despite not being very hurt by the car.

However, the girl refused to speak, only shaking her head slowly with a lifeless expression on her face.

Wilbur frowned. "Let's take her back for now. She seems to have something on her mind. We can talk tomorrow after she's gotten some rest for the night."

Faye nodded, then helped the girl into the car before driving back to Castlebury."

Faye helped the girl onto the couch before making her a cup of tea. "Young lady, what happened to you? How did you end up like this?"
