The Wife He Forgot to Marry (Winona and Yule) novel Chapter 365

For lunch, the family's housekeeper prepared a lavish spread.

Valor's wife, Hazel, and their son, Justin, returned from their clinic shifts to join them.

Watching the family laugh and talk so warmly with each other, Winona felt a deep pang of longing.

Valor looked across the table at Winona. "Are you planning to relocate to the capital for your career?"

Winona shook her head. "No. I just came to visit a friend... I have work obligations, so I'm catching a 4 PM flight back to Riverton."

Valor sighed heavily. "Riverton's academic environment is lacking. There aren't enough prestigious universities or top-tier research institutes. With your level of talent, staying there is a waste. If you moved here, your future would be infinitely brighter."

After lunch, Phoebe walked Winona to the door.

"So, this friend you came to see," Phoebe asked with a knowing smile. "Was it a boyfriend?"

Winona fell silent.

Taking her silence as a yes, Phoebe chuckled. "It would be amazing if you settled down and worked here in the capital. We'd get to hang out all the time."

Winona just offered a faint smile.

As they stepped outside, a woman carrying several high-end gift bags came marching up the walkway.

It was Karina.

Karina double-checked the house number, then looked at the two women in utter confusion. "Did you just come out of Professor Bell's house?"

Phoebe crossed her arms, smirking. "What if we did? Why are you looking for my father-in-law?"

The words struck Karina like a bolt of lightning.

She couldn't believe this obnoxious woman she kept getting into fights with was actually Professor Bell's daughter-in-law.
