Chapter 240 When Jeromeâs low volce came from behind, the driver thought that he had misheard it..
âMr. Miller, are you asking me that?â
Jerome said nothing.
The driver bravely responded, âMy wife has the final say in my family. Sheâll take care of any urgent matters, so I donât need to worry about them.â
Knowing that the driver had misunderstood his question, Jerome didnât explain any further.
The doctor who had treated Mikayla didnât know what the situation was like at the time, so he just jumped to conclusions.
It wasnât the first time Mikayla had caused trouble for Kylie. If Jerome kept standing up for her Indiscriminately, she would only become even more unscrupulous.
Besides, he hadnât known that Mikayla was injured. He had wanted to ask her the details about the incident afterward, but she had already left, and he couldnât contact her.
Thus, he believed that there was nothing wrong with the way he had handled the whole matter.
If Mikayla had accompanied Eduard out of town because of this matter, he could only let her go.
Although Jerome tried to convince himself rationally, he still felt uneasy when he recalled Mikaylaâs mockery and coldness.
After lunch, Mikayla arrived at the airport with Eduard and William.
She was a lady, so she couldnât share a room with Eduard. She didnât know the specific time and place of accident in her previous life, so, in order to be safe, she had asked William to accompany him.
After getting their boarding passes, they went to the firstâclass VIP lounge.
When William and Eduard were chatting, Mikaylaâs phone rang. She glanced at it and found that it was Wanda who was calling Why would Wanda call her at this time?
Mikayla picked up the call and said, âHello, Grandma. Whatâs the matter?â
Wanda replied, âKay, Zachary will return today. Didnât you promise me that you would come for dinner at the manor â
Mikayla slapped her forehead. She had completely forgotten about it. She didnât hear Jerome mention anything about it in the morning either.
Of course, even if he had mentioned it, she still wouldnât change her plans.
Mikayla apologized, Iâm sorry, Grandma Iâm accompanying my grandpa to Lakeville to visit an old friend.
I wonât be around for the next few days, so I canât go there for dinner tonight âWhen will Mr. Zachary arrive? Iâll give him a call to apologize.
â
donât need to do . I didnât invite you to meet him. I just wanted you to accompany me When Mikayla heard that, she felt even more guilty Last time, she failed to make the mille crepe cake for Wanda, and now she had broken her promise to accompany Wanda for dinner.
She really wasnât a good granddaughter in law âKay, did Jerome make you angry again? Why are you suddenly going to Lakeville?â Wanda asked.
Mikayla quickly changed the topic , â
in getting old. Iâm worried about him traveling so far away alone, so Iâve decided to accompany him.
âBut donât worry. Iâll definitely come back before your birthday and celebrate it with you!â
Wanda could tell that Mikayla didnât want to talk about Jerome. They had probably fought again.
Yesterday, she had received news that the couple had gone on a company trip. They had seemed very affectionate with each other, and someone had even captured photos of them hugging each other.
So, why was Mikayla going out of town today?
Wanda thought that their relationship had improved after she had transferred the nanny away. But in the end, that wasnât the case.
âKay, you know that I want more than just you celebrating my birthday with me.â
Mikayla understood what Wanda meant, but she couldnât do it. She apologized, âIâm sorry, Grandma.â
âSilly girl, I know that itâs not your fault.â
Since Wanda couldnât stop Mikayla from leaving, she requested Mikayla to return two days earlier.
She informed Mikayla that although there wouldnât be a huge celebration for her birthday, many relatives and friends would still be there. She hoped that Mikayla could help to set up the and take care of some other matters.
Mikayla, who was full of guilt, agreed with Wandaâs request. âAlright. Iâll let you know when I get back.â
