Chapter 77
The woman looked at the blond man. “Remember not la tall or take advantage of her. She was once one of us, after all ”
“Got it, Big Sis.” The blond man let out a string of strange laughter.
It was morning
Wilbur sat in the living room fiddling with a token in his hands, trying to sense the mysterious energy in it
Just then, Fage came downstairs. “Good morning, Boss.”
“You don’t have to call me that, you know,” Wilbur said, shaking his head.
Faye replied, “Well, some boundaries are still necessary when it comes to work. By the way, your car’s fixed.”
She handed a set of keys to Wilbur.
Wilbur’s car had been damaged during the confrontation with Jose and Duran, and he had been relying on e–halling services for the past few days
Wilbur nodded. “Thank you.”
you, Bess. Master jose’s right outside. Remember to eat.” Faye left the hause after that, her heels clacking on the floor.
wilbur sighed as Faye left.
Faye was definitely a qualified partner to have, with bath looks and brains.
She had a great personality too and was definitely a woman of charm.
Wilbur knew that all he had to do was reciprocate her advances in the slightest and the two of them would be together.
However, she was technically working for him, and dating her might be a little inappropriate.
The thought of his old teammates overseas finding out that he was sleeping with one of his staff made his head hurt. They would laugh at him for sure.
That was beside the point. With his cultivation Improving with time, he would be able to live longer. What if she died before him? He would have to grieve her as a young–locking man.
There was far too much else on his plate now, and all he could do was push his relationship issues to the side.
Wilbur shook his head, then left the house for a cafe nearby.
Henwood’s sold the best pastries, and their mushroom soup was thick and creamy. Wilbur had always liked it there.
There were quite a few people having their breakfast when Wilbur arrived.
He sat down at an empty table, ordering live croissants and two mushroom soups, as well as three Danish pastries.
The food came quickly enough.
Wilbur could eat quite a lot. To be honest, the food that he had ordered was only enough to make him half full, but any more would make other people stare.
There was no way out of it. Wilbur’s cultivation resulted in him having an alarming appetite while also allowing him to go hungry for days.
Just like that, Wilbur dug into his breakfast beartily.
Just then, two men and a woman stumbled into the cafe reeking of alcohol. It was clear that they had been drinking all night and were now having breakfast.
The three of them looked around, then sat down at Wilbur’s table before ordering a great deal of food.
They ate to their hearts‘ content, then got up to leave right after.
Wilbur saw that and asked, “Uhm, have you forgotten to pay?
He saw that these people seemed a little drunk and was just reminding them out of politeness. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
However, that resulted in one of them turning around to glare at Wilbur ferociously. “Who the f*ck do you think you are? Do I look like the kind of person who needs to pay for my food?”
The other man and woman looked at Wilbur as well, amused.
Wilbur’s expression darkened at once. “Paying for the food you eat is the law. Are you above the law or something?”
