Living With My Lady Boss romance Capítulo 41

Miranda felt a little guilty but refused to budge. "What? He broke the law and got arrested. How is that anyone else's fault?"

Yvonne looked at her mother and shook her head. "You still don't understand just how powerful he truly is. If it really was you, you'd better apologize right now and clear things up. That way, the Willow family might still be able to survive this."

"I did nothing. I had nothing to do with this!" Miranda said hurriedly, turning to leave at once.

Regardless, Yvonne was certain that her mother had been the one to arrange for this to happen.

She knew what her mother was like, and it was going to be almost impossible to get her to admit to her faults.

Yvonne let out a long sigh, falling back in her seat limply. The Willow family was going to be done for.

Wilbur put all these worries and troubles at the back of his head and drove to the morning market a few kilometers from the house.

It was barely nine in the morning, and the market was still open. The groceries there were fresher than those in the supermarket, and there were more options as well.

Faye had barely gotten any rest over what had happened with Wilbur, and he felt a little guilty about that. He planned to make her dinner at night as a gesture of appreciation.

Just as he was in the middle of grocery shopping, he heard a voice call out to him. "Wilbur Penn?"

Wilbur turned around and saw a pretty girl in her twenties wearing jeans smiling at him. He paused for a moment before realizing who the girl was.

"Nancy Brand?" Wilbur smiled earnestly.

Nancy smiled back sweetly, revealing two little dimples. "I knew it was you! I almost didn't say hi. I'm glad I did! How's it going, old pal? It's been a while. Are you well?"

"I'm pretty good."

Wilbur was feeling a little emotional. He had left school after junior high, and Nancy was one of the few classmates he had. The two of them had even been deskmates and had a pretty good friendship.

Over ten years had passed since then. Honestly speaking, he would not have said hi to Nancy if she had not done so first.

The pair chatted for a while, then Nancy said, "Wilbur, this isn't a good place to talk! There's a gathering happening tomorrow night. Would you like to come?"

"Oh, I really shouldn't," Wilbur turned her down.
