Wendy walked out of the Lucas mansion with Jake.
What happened earlier had surprised her, but it hadn't affected her much. She didn't have high hopes for this family in the first place anyway.
After they walked out, Jake tugged at Wendy's hand and asked in a quiet and adorable voice, "Mummy, are you angry?"
Jake had been observing Wendy the whole time because he was afraid that Winnie would bully her. Thankfully, Wendy had responded very cleverly and Winnie ended up losing the argument.
Wendy shook her head and smiled back at him faintly. "No, I'm not angry. Are you hungry? What do you want for lunch?"
Jake rubbed his tiny stomach and nodded. "I'm hungry! Let's go home, I really want to eat the fried chicken that Auntie Zess makes."
"Sure. Give Zess a call and tell her we're on our way home for lunch now." Wendy bundled him into the car and drove off.

On Monday, Wendy went to work on time as usual.
