Living With My Lady Boss

Wilbur saw that it was a call from Nancy and picked it up at once.

“Wilbur, where are you? Do you need me to pick you up?” Nancy’s voice came ringing down the line.

Wilbur said at once, “Oh, that’s alright, I’ll be right there.

“Great! Be on time, will you?” Nancy said, hanging up after that.

Wilbur chuckled. To be honest, he was pretty happy to be able to see his old classmates after so long. He did not have many friends, and it was hard to still be in touch with his classmates after so long.

He got in his car and drove to Winston Entertainment.

Winston Entertainment was a recreational establishment with food and entertainment services, considered to be rather popular in Seechertown.

Half an hour later, Wilbur arrived at the place. He entered the hall and saw Nancy waiting on the couch as if she had been waiting just for him.

Nancy saw Wilbur as well and got to her feet at once with a smile. “Come on, everyone’s here.”

Wilbur nodded, following Nancy to one of the rooms.

They were greeted by over ten classmates there, chatting joyously among themselves.

Everyone greeted Wilbur, and a sense of nostalgia washed over him.

He had gone overseas after finishing junior high, spending the next decade in battle. He had not experienced something like this in a long time.

He greeted everyone joyously before sitting down.

Just then, Nancy said, “Wilbur, you disappeared after junior high. We still kept in touch, but you were nowhere to be found. Everyone misses you, you know.”

Wilbur said guiltily, “My apologies. I went abroad to make a living and lost touch with everyone. Who would have thought that a decade would just pass by like that? Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Everyone chuckled before asking about Wilbur’s experiences abroad. Of course, he only said that he was working and vaguely described what happened.

Just then, the waiter started bringing in the food. It was not long before the table was filled with food and drinks. It seemed like the party was about to start.

However, no one seemed to be digging in. Everyone was still chatting among themselves.

Just then, one of the classmates said, ‘Cindy sure has some nerves. It’s almost half past eight and she’s still not here.”

“She was prom queen. Of course she’d be putting on airs.”

“She used to be prom queen, and now she’s the events manager of Woods Corporate. That’s crazy.”

“Oh, that’s nothing! We’re all classmates, and this is a school gathering! What’s the point in bringing that up?”

The mention of Cindy Vega made everyone break out into discussions at once.

Wilbur could not help but chuckle to himself.

Cindy had been the most popular girl in school back then, and it seemed like she was still just as popular.

Just as everyone was talking among themselves, the door was pushed open as a lavishly–dressed woman walked in.

“Cindy! You finally made it. Everyone’s been waiting for you,” one of the classmates said.

Cindy was clad in pink office wear and exquisite makeup as she strode in gracefully while waving at everyone. “I’m so sorry for making all of you wait!”

Everyone was about to respond when a man in a suit followed behind Cindy.

The crowd stopped short. They did not know that guy.

Cindy introduced him at once, “Oh, this is my boyfriend, Edward Channing. He’s the son of Xavier Channing, the Weston District manager.”

That seemed to surprise everyone and even annoyed a few people.

It was a school gathering. What was the point of inviting people that no one knew? However, he was already here, so everyone decided it was best not to say anything.
