As Wendy was evidently shaken, her mother was shocked and asked what happened.
After explaining everything while sobbing, she clarified, “I was afraid Arielle might ruin the archive, but Mr. Brown thought I was framing her. Mom, I can't take it anymore!”
“That b*tch!” Cecilia huffed. “Darling, calm down. Your father and I will be there this Friday. You have tests on both Thursday and Friday, right?”
“Yeah.”
“We'll wait for you at the gate after your test.
“Okay!” Wendy nodded profusely.
Mom and Dad are finally going to be here. I might not be Arielle's match, but they are!
Meanwhile, Aaron asked his assistant to find a nice restaurant nearby, and the car soon rolled to a stop at Maureen's Kitchen.
Though the entrance seemed ordinary, it was crowded.
His assistant opened the car door for him. “Mr. Aaron, please wait. I shall clear the venue for you.”
“No need.” Aaron gave him a dismissive wave. “I’ve been cooped up at home for too long. This is new. I shall eat together with the peasants.”
“Understood.” His assistant gave him a polite bow and led him in.
There happened to be an empty table, so Aaron sat down and ordered a few dishes. He waited patiently for his food to be served.
After glancing at the ordinary menu, his assistant said, “Your accommodation is ready. We have a chef in our entourage. If the food here isn't to your liking, I can ask the chef to prepare dinner for you.”
