Chapter 1018 Blocking The Way
Knowing that Jennifer was a very dutiful woman, Donald, besides entrusting Jane with the company affairs, casually assigned her the responsibility of managing the daily expenses of Leonard and Linda.
As long as the spending wasn't too extravagant, Jane would do her best to accommodate it.
Donald had also received some information from Jane regarding this matter.
This RV can be said to be the vehicle that Leonard and Linda have been most satisfied with so far.
So this time, when they returned to Wilson Village, they insisted on driving this vehicle back to show off a bit to their relatives and friends.
Naturally, Donald knew what they were thinking, but he had no intention of saying anything.
After all, isn't the purpose of life just to save face?
Leonard and Linda might be concerned about keeping up appearances, but Donald reckoned it wasn't a big deal after all.
Although they were heading to Wilson Village, Jane and Lara would also accompany them to take good care of Jennifer.
In the car, Jennifer lay in bed and discussed business matters with Jane.
Meanwhile, Leonard and his wife were watching television in the living room.
Meanwhile, Lara sat in the passenger seat, constantly monitoring the road conditions ahead to avoid any potential dangers.
As for Donald, he was alone in this luxurious car, unsure of what to do next.
“Mr. Campbell, Ms. Wilson would like you to come over.”
Seeing Jane waving at him from the bedroom doorway, Donald got up and walked over.
After entering the bedroom, Jennifer said to Donald, “My mom just told me that when meeting the elders and juniors for the first time, we need to prepare some monetary gifts. So, I asked Jane to withdraw some money in advance. Could you help her prepare them?”
After finishing her words, Jennifer shot Jane a look.
The latter opened the two boxes in the vehicle, both of which were filled to the brim with banknotes.
Donald rolled his eyes and said, “You've never even met those relatives. Do you really need to prepare so many monetary gifts?”
“That's exactly why we need to do this because we've never met. I heard from my dad that the second uncle's family is very big, and each one of his children is not easy to deal with. They look down on poor relatives the most, so we can't let my parents lose face.”
Donald sighed and responded, “All right. If that's what you want, we'll do exactly that.”
Donald spoke as he and Jane began to prepare the monetary gifts together.
The smallest monetary gift contained a hundred bucks, while the largest one held a thousand.
In order to avoid mixing up those monetary gifts, they even made unique markings on each one for differentiation.
Once Donald and Jane had finished packing the monetary gifts, the RV suddenly came to a halt.
“What's the matter? Have we arrived yet?”
Lara, sitting in the passenger seat, turned her head and said, “There's a roadblock ahead. We can't get through.”
“Roadblock?”
Donald lifted his head to look ahead, and indeed, there was a man-made roadblock set up in front.
A group of young men, each holding a club, started walking toward them.
Their clothes weren't too shabby, but their lackadaisical manner of walking gave off the impression that they weren't people who played by the rules.
Leonard saw those young folks and said with a smile, “Hey, I know all these people. They're all from Wilson Village. I'm going to get off and have a chat with them.”
Leonard opened the car door and voluntarily got out.
Worried about any potential danger to Leonard, Lara also got out of the car, wielding her baton.
A young man, roughly in his early twenties, sporting a non-mainstream hairstyle, walked over.
“What do you think you're doing? Do you know that the village ahead is Wilson Village? Outsiders are not allowed in.” Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
Upon hearing the young man's words, Leonard was not only not angry but rather felt a sense of pride and honor.
The Wilson family indeed held significant influence in this area.
Just look at how they've blocked a road that's so wide.
Leonard said to the young man with a smile, “I am from the Wilson family. My name is Leonard Wilson, and I was invited by my uncle, Montgomery, to attend the family banquet.”
