Chapter 237
Nancy’s aunt, Roanne Drew, patted her shoulder and said in a displeased tone, “Why are you screaming? How old are you now? You’re not seeing anyone right now, so I’ll introduce a young entrepreneur from our town to you today. He owns a food factory, and his family has assets worth up to ten million dollars. Don’t you think he’s good enough for you?”
Nancy’s mother, May Brand, agreed and said, ‘She’s right, Nancy. He has a nice family and has good looks too. We’ve checked him out for you.”
Her father, Joshua Brand, seemed earnest, keeping quiet the entire time.
There was no way Nancy would accept it. She quickly said, “I don’t want to date anyone yet. Wilbur, stop the car now. I’m not going.”
She had no idea that the lunch wonkl be a blind date.
She did not want to do it, and Wilbur was around too. She felt so ashamed that she wanted to crawl inside a hole.
Wilbur felt awkward too. He did not know whether he should stop the car or not. It was her family business, after all
Roanne yelled, “Driver, don’t listen to her. We’re in charge today. We spent days making plans for you. How could you refuse to go just like that?”
He helplessly drove at a slow pace.
Nancy wanted to resist and gave a lot of excuses. but her mother and her aunt had made up their minds. They forced her to go no matter what
They were not far from the city, so they had arrived while the argument was ongoing
Roanne instructed Wilbur to park in front of a restaurant and then dragged Nancy out of the car.
Her parents then quickly got out of the car too. Joshua told Wilbur in a friendly manner, “Kid, you should eat with us too.”
“Uhm, I don’t think so. It won’t be appropriate.” He chuckled wryly.
It was not appropriate for a mere driver to take part in a blind date.
However, Nancy yelled, “Come here, Wilbur. You have to join this one.”
She felt a mix of conflicting emotions going crazy inside her at that moment.
She wanted to use the excuse of returning to their hometown to invite him to have lunch at her place. She knew it was not possible for her to start a relationship with him, but she subconsciously still wanted to be with Wilbur.
The unexpected arrangement caught her off guard, so she felt very annoyed.
What would become of them if Wilbur was cast aside? How could she ever face him again?
Wilbur noticed how determined she looked and sounded, so he lud no choice but to get out of the car and walk toward her. Roanne sized him up with a confused gaze. Then, she looked at Nancy again. She whispered, “What is your relationship with
“He’s my colleague,” replied Nancy in a displeased tone.
She knew that hits identity should not be revealed so easily. Chelsea and Miss Yves warned her before. The two women were her real supervisors, and lay decided the fate of her job.
Roanne frowned and asked, “Isn’t he just a driver? What are you up to?”
“He’s my colleague. I went along with the ride in his car.” Nancy tried her best to further the misunderstanding. Perhaps her aunt and her mom would cancel the bilical date because of that, so she insisted I was her colleagar.
Rome thought about it and looked like she had a realization. She grinned and said, “You don’t want to attend the blind date, so you’re trying to trick me, right?”

“I wasn’t planning to,” Nancy replied.
Roanne scoffed and said, “We just want what’s good for you. Also, you’re a general manager now, so how can you not own a new car? You lived in the city for a few years, and now you’re trying to fool us like this? We’re your family, you know?”
Roanne’s analysis made Nancy feel speechless. Wilbur was similarly dumbfounded. Roanne truly had a wild imagination. She dragged Nancy into the restaurant regardless of her protests.
