Living With My Lady Boss by Blue Silver novel Chapter 1386

The man glanced at Wilbur. He replied in the quietest voice, "Harley Penn."

It was an awful name.

Wilbur instantly smiled and said, "What a coincidence. My surname is Penn too. Can I have a word with you?"

Carol yelled sternly before Harley could reply, "What's there to talk about? Don't you have work to do? Go."

The man lowered his gaze and silently went back inside.

Wilbur looked at the nosy neighbors at the door, and he felt so embarrassed.

He panicked and closed the door. He walked to Carol and said in a low voice, "Miss Ziegler, they said you abused them, and they tried to jump into the river. I saved them. We would like to have a word with you. Let's resolve the conflicts between you guys so you can get along in the future."

"They jumped into the river? Why aren't they dead yet? Why did you save them?" asked Carol in a row. She did not stop her work at all.

Wilbur asked angrily, "Aren't you too overbearing as a daughter-in-law?"

"Overbearing?" Carol finally looked up. She looked at Wilbur and asked, "Why did no one say they were overbearing when they abused me and cursed my son?"

"Huh?"

Wilbur instantly widened his eyes in shock. He wondered what was going on.

Carol scoffed and lowered her gaze. She started to get back to work again as if she did not want to talk about it.

Wilbur looked at the old couple, then he looked at Carol again.

It seemed like there was more to the story.

He thought about it and opened the door. He walked outside and closed the door from the outside.

The nosy neighbors outside all stared at him.

Wilbur coughed awkwardly and said, "Hey, neighbors. Here's the thing, I ran into the old couple who tried to commit suicide at a bridge. I saved them, and I also heard about their daughter-in-law, so I came to resolve the conflict. However, it seems like there is more to the story. Can you guys tell me what's going on with this family?"

"Do tell," said Wilbur humbly.

His attitude made the nosy lady like him a lot.

The nosy lady looked at Wilbur approvingly. She mysteriously said, "Carol is their second daughter-in-law. She's perfect, but they are still not happy with her."

"Their son is too weak. He doesn't dare make a squeak in front of his parents. His ex-wife left because he deserved it," said an old man.

Wilbur was dumbfounded.

The old couple kept telling him about how inhumane their daughter-in-law was.

However, the neighbors said she was a good daughter-in-law, and the old couple were the bad guys.

He wondered what the hell was going on.

"Let me tell you that the old couple brought their relatives to hit Carol together," said the old lady.
