Drunk and Daring I Kissed a Tycoon novel Chapter 326

From the front seat, Vernon said, "Of course, your mom worries. The moment you told us to stay a few extra days at the fishing village, she started losing sleep, frowning all day, afraid you'd be bullied or something…"

"Why are you telling her all that?" Wanda cut him off, pretending to be annoyed.

A wave of bittersweet warmth swept through Vespera's heart.

In this world, only her parents loved her so unconditionally.

Wanda held her hand tightly. "Vera, even though you're divorced now, you have to look ahead. Remember Helen's son?"

Vespera fell silent.

"Please don't tell me she's trying to set me up with Mrs. Gomez's son…" she thought.

Up front, Vernon couldn't take it anymore. "Vera just got divorced! What's the rush? Vera, don't listen to your mom."

Wanda insisted, "It's not easy to find someone like Benjamin! He's a good kid, and he's still single. I always thought he and Vera would be a better match."

Vespera quietly rubbed her forehead.

Was marriage a test she absolutely had to pass?

After a while, they made it into the city and headed to the supermarket.

This particular supermarket was inside a large mall. The prices were high, but the quality was excellent. Vespera often shopped there.

After parking the car, the three of them got out.

A little distance away, at another parking spot, Theodore was peeling the wrapper of a piece of chocolate for Carly.

"Bad woman! That woman is bad!" Carly suddenly pointed out the window and started angrily shouting.

"Carly, be good," Theodore said gently, trying to soothe her as he turned to see what she was yelling about.

When he spotted Vespera, a flicker of delight crossed his eyes.

He had been thinking about Vespera a lot these past few days.

Today was actually his last day in Halewick.

He had thought about contacting Dominic and seeing her one more time, but in the end, he didn't want to risk another misunderstanding, so he gave up.

"Bad woman, I don't like her! Bad woman…" Carly huffed, glaring at Vespera.

Hearing Carly keep muttering about the "bad woman," Theodore asked curiously. "Have you met that woman before?"
