Jason looked at them and said slowly, âNo one dared to disrespect me like that in this town. Your family will pay for what you did today.â âWhat do you want to do?â asked Nancy angrily. Jason scoffed and said, âWhat do I want? Youâll find out soon. I want this guy to kneel, beg, and apologize right now. I may still forgive you. Itâs not too late to beg for mercy.â âYou sure have a wild imagination, Mister Yates,â said Wilbur casually. Jason looked pis sed. Harold waved and asked, âEnough. What is the meaning of this?â Jason sat down angrily when he heard that, still locking eyes with Wilbur in their glaring.
Harold frowned and spoke slowly, âIâm not trying to judge, but this is such a mess. How can we show our faces in this town again after this humiliation?â âIâm sorry, sir. Itâs all this guyâs fault. Nancy has nothing to do with him! Sheâs just trying to throw a tantrum because of me, explained Roanne hurriedly. She also blamed herself. She knew that Jason and Harold were very upset, and they were furious. âIf I offend these two, I can forget about my sonâs job, I might even jeopardize our future in this town. I can also forget about that small supermarket that Iâm running. They canât be messed with, Roanne thought in a panle. Haroldâs phone rang just as he was about to speak. He answered the call after glancing at it. He frantically stood up after a moment and said, âWe need a settlement for what happened here. Jason canât endure this kind of injustice. You all need to come up with a solution as to how to solve this right now.â Then, he wanted to leave. Jason hurriedly asked, âWhatâs wrong, uncle?â âThe authorities are here for an inspection,â answered Harold while he walked out Jason walked out of the reserved room with him. He whispered, âArenât inspections supposed to be informed? Why werenât you informed this time?â âItâs the authorities from the province, and they said itâs a surprise inspection. Even the district wasnât
informed. They are here in town, so I have to hurry up to make arrangements.â âHurry up and go then. We donât want any trouble.â âThatâs of course. Remember, you need to make that Nancy brat apologize even if she didnât mean it. Otherwise, youâll be humiliated, and so will 1.â âI got it, uncle. Iâll take care of that guy and Iâm going to have my way with that girl.â Jason looked malicious. He felt insulted. Harold shook his head and said, âThat brat dared to disrespect me, Iâll take care of the Brands from now on. She thinks sheâs all high and mighty just because she became a general manager in the city. Ha!â Then, he left in a hurry. Jason took a deep breath. He looked very menacing No one was allowed to leave unless they gave him some form of settlement. First, he made a phone call. Those unemployed men who usually followed him around immediately rushed over. He scoffed coldly and walked back into the reserved room. Nancy was sitting down after the strong persuasion of her parents. Wilbur had no choice but to follow suit. Nancy decided to wait for Jason to return and make things clear. Then, she would leave with Wilbur However, Wilbur knew things were not as simple as it seemed.
