Upon reaching Atera Restaurant, they stepped out of their cars, and Sanfordâs phone rang again.
This time, regardless of the call, he wouldnât let Maggie be alone.
The trio made their way into the restaurant.
Seeing him, the restaurant staff respectfully acknowledged Sanfordâs presence.
Since he was engrossed in his call, he didnât respond.
The staffâs eyes then turned to Maggie, setting the stage for whispers and chatter.
âIs that the same Maggie who used to wait tables here?â
âYep, thatâs her.
Got fired after she crossed paths with the bossâs future wife, right?â
âAnd whatâs she doing back here now? Begging for her job back?â
Their whispers, while hushed, were loud enough for Maggie to catch every word,
They took her back to the time when Millie belittled her and Sanford ignored it.
It was uncomfortable to think about.
Yet, things had taken quite a turn.
Who wouldâve guessed that she, once fired by the bossâs future wife, would now be in the company of the boss himself?
Lost in her thoughts, Maggie didnât realize Sanford stopped walking, and she ended up bumping right into him.

He caught her in his arms, playfully tapped her nose, and said, âDaydreaming? You should keep an eye on where youâre going.
â
Silently, Maggie nodded.
The cluster of gossiping waiters froze, their eyes growing wide as they stared at the couple.
Sanford turned to them, his gaze icy.
âRefrain from gossiping about my future wife behind my back.
Otherwise, you might learn a harsh Lesson.
â
The future wife of the boss?
Was he referring to Maggie?
The waiters, taken aback, quickly averted their gazes and responded with respect.
