Chapter 565
May was quick-witted. Not wanting to miss out on such a good opportunity, she quickly went forward and bowed politely to the old men.
“My name is May. I’m really good at all sorts of chores, such as laundry, sweeping, watering the plants, and cooking. I know it all!”
Wayne and Mendoza were still refusing the offer when Sage said, “This young lady is great at cooking, and she can even sing. Show them what you got, May.” May nodded promptly and cleared her throat. “Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high…” Wayne and Mendoza’s eyes sparkled upon hearing her voice, and they both applauded.
“What a great voice you have there!”
Mendoza smiled and asked May, “Young lady, who taught you to sing?”
“My mother’s cousin’s aunt’s husband was a well-known singer. When he retired back home, my mom and I took care of him for a short while. He was the one who taught me how to sing,”
Simon heard the voice and came outside to check it out, “Is Carl Freeman the well-known singer you mentioned by any chance? Master Carl?”
May nodded and confirmed, “Yes, that’s him! How well do you know Master Carl, sir?”
The three old men exchanged a knowing gaze and said, “Very well!”
Mendoza was touched. “I can’t believe I get to meet Carl’s disciple in my lifetime. How is that old man doing? Still alive?”
May shook her head and said dejectedly, “Master Carl passed away from an illness two years
ago.”
The three old men fell into a brief silence.
