Chapter 302 Three Don'ts (Part One)

"William, we should have an agreement," Mary suggested when she saw William walk into the ward.

"An agreement? " William stopped in his tracks with a look of apprehension in his eyes. He asked, "Are you being serious, Mary? What kind of agreement?"

Mary avoided his eyes and looked at the other women in the ward for support. The three women nodded in encouragement and urged her to continue.

"Um..." Mary squirmed and waved her hand to dismiss them. "Can you all leave us first?"

"Fighting, Mary!"

"Remember what we told you!"

"Stand your ground, Mary!"

The three of them made sure to remind her before leaving.

"What agreement are you talking about?" William asked as he sat down on the bed.

"How did you meet each other many years ago?" William asked and looked him over once more.

"I worked at a convenience store four years ago, opposite the bar you often went to," Mary explained. "Peter's family owns that store."

William nodded dismissively. "It rings a bell."

"You remember it? Peter's all grown up! Time flies!" Mary couldn't help but sigh.
