Purchased A Mr. Right novel Chapter 927

Emily looked at the clock hung on the wall.

The pointer showed that it was almost nine o'clock in the evening. She missed the meeting without telling Calvin the reason. He must be very anxious now. However, she was trapped here and couldn't go back!

At this moment, Emily was still thinking about calling Calvin or her aunt to tell them her situation here...

"Mister, how far is the supermarket from here?" She asked hurriedly.

Hearing this, the middle-aged man scratched his head and said, "It's not far away. It is only a walk of few minutes. You should have passed by it when you came, but it's closed at this time. We have to wait until tomorrow!"

After hearing that, Emily frowned.

Unlike the city, there was no nightlife in the village, and the temperature in the northern part of the city was low. Almost every family went to sleep after dark. When they entered the village at that time, the supermarket indeed was closed.

When she opened her mouth, the middle-aged man seemed to have already known what she wanted to ask and said, "Our neighbor has a phone, but it's late now. I would be embarrassed to knock on their door now!"

Emily raised her hand and pressed the space between her eyebrows, knowing that she had to give up.

"Do I really need to stay here tonight?"

In desperation, it seemed it was the only choice Emily had. She sighed for failing to hold the meeting between the two families. Without her, it would be impossible to carry it out. However, it was useless to think too much now. Everything would have to wait until tomorrow to be settled!

Emily helped to carry the dishes to the kitchen. When the middle-aged woman saw her, she hurriedly said, "Kid, put it there. Let me wash them!"

"It's okay!" Emily shook her head with a smile.

The middle-aged couple let them in their house and gave them food out of kindness. It was only reasonable for them to help wash the dishes. Moreover, there only a few tablewares that they used just now.

The middle-aged woman smiled and helped her clean. After that, she handed over a towel and said, "Girl, you're so lucky!"

"Huh?" Emily did not understand.

The middle-aged woman came to her side and said with a bigger smile, "Haha, I saw what happened! Your husband is like mine. Every meal, my husband would let me have the last piece of meat! You have such a good husband. Doesn't it mean that you are blessed?"

Emily was stunned.

Knowing that the middle-aged woman had misunderstood, she moved her lips and wanted to explain. But before she could make a sound, the middle-aged woman was already walking out of the kitchen, saying, "My old man is showing the pictures again. He doesn't feel ashamed!"

Although her tone sounded like she was complaining, her face had an unconcealable smile.

Emily was a little curious, so she followed behind her.

Simon and the middle-aged man were sitting in a chair in the living room, looking through an album made of elk paper. Inside the album, there were some old photos. The middle-aged man was talking excitedly about the photos.

Emily walked over, feeling attracted by the photo album. She looked through it with Simon and couldn't help but ask, "Madam, are these photos of you when you were young?"

"That's right!" The middle-aged man nodded with a smile.

The middle-aged woman was also smiling. She touched her face with both hands and said, "I was young. But now, I am old with wrinkles all over my face!"
