Travis Miller didn't stay at the Miller Family for dinner.
By the time he got home, Abigail Hemsworth hadn't returned yet.
Nat Crawford reported Abigail's whereabouts to him. After freshening up, at nine-thirty, he finally called her.
This was pretty much the first time Abigail participated in such a gathering by invitation.
Lola seemed genuinely happy. Previously, she never wanted to miss a day of work at the restaurant, saving some money to support her parents who lived in a remote area, with the rest as her pocket money.
Because the monthly allowance she sent home was fixed, if she slacked off a bit, she might not even be able to cover her living expenses.
Deciding to invite everyone for dinner tonight must have been a decision she made with gritted teeth.
The restaurant wasn't upscale, just a local specialty diner, affordable and clean, carefully chosen.
