âUhh⦠I guess Iâm a little involved, but uhh. I canât make the decision for you, soâ¦â Wilbur stuttered.
Faye sighed, smiling painfully. âI know I wonât give you a hard time about this, Ba**. Iâll handle this on my own.â
âUhh⦠Faye, what does your father do for a living? It feels like heâs a pretty big deal, huh?â Wilbur tried to change the topic.
Faye scoffed. âHeâs the gang leader in Howl Province, Endler City. Got rich and successful thanks to one woman, and then forgot all about her. Until now, that is âAhh, no wonder,â Wilbur said with a frown.
Faye smiled all of a sudden. âSay, do you think my position in Cape would be affected if I were to agree to the marriage?â
course not, Wilbur replied without hesitation Fayeâs smile froze on her face, and she sighed softly.
Wilbur said at once, âThatâs not what I meant! If you donât want to do it, you shouldnât be forced into it. Even if thatâs what your father wants.â
âYou donât know what heâs like. Heâs going to make a huge deal out of this if I say no. Nothing good will come out of this,â Faye sand, shaking her head.
Wilbur frowned. âWell, if you really donât want to do that, youâve got me to rely on. No oneâs going to force you into anything as long as Iâm around.â
âI knew youâre the best, Boss,â Faye smiled blissfully.
Wilbur blinked. It felt like he had walked right into that one Just then, his phone rang with a call from Faron.
âHello?â
âHey! Where are you right now?â
âIâm home.â
âIâve got nothing to do. Can I come over?â
âWhat do you mean youâve got nothing to do?â
âBro, itâs good enough that my name is involved in the case. Iâll be taking all of Nicholasâ credit if I stay there. Besides, the case is going to take at least half a year. I canât stand that.â
Wilbur fell silent. âWait for me at Sealake Island. Iâll be right there.â
âSure thing, Bro! See you.â
Wilbur hung up the call and said to Faye, âFaron wants to meet me. Iâm going out.â
âOkay. There are guards on duty around Sealake Island, and they all low you,â Baye said.
Wilbur rhurkled. âYouâre the best.â
H âWell, it would be abandoned if no one took care of the place,â Faye said.
Wilbur nodded. âWeit, how would they recognize me?â
âCome on, you own the place! I showed them your photo. Donât worry, it wonât get out.â
Iâm not worried about anything youâre in charge of. Iâll be on my way. Please have dinner on your own!
Wilbur left after that and drove to Sealake Island.
He could see Faron waiting for him on the bridge, Wilbur walked over, and Faron greeted him at once with a smile, âYouâre a Chapter 162 here, bro!â
âLetâs go.â
âWilbur led Faron across the bridge, where the person standing there bowed at Wilbur at once. âWelcome, sir.â
Wilbur nodded, and he entered with Faron in tow.
Faron was a little surprised. âBro, do you own this place?
âIt was a gift from someone else,â Wilbur said. Faron stopped in his tracks at once.
