Back to the Past: Breaking the Love Spell

Chapter 543

"You rented a car? How much did it cost?"

Hayley looked at the black sedan parked by the side of the road and frowned.

She had no money, so she turned to Hilda and said, "Hilda, can you lend me some money? I need to pay for my son's car rental."

Hilda pulled a handful of bills out of her apron pocket and handed Hayley three hundred- dollar bills.

"Mom, you don't have to pay for the car. I borrowed it from a friend!"

He wanted to say it was his car, but he was afraid Hayley would ask for the paperwork. So he decided to be honest to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Hayley's frown deepened.

"You borrowed it? Do you even know how to drive? What if you damage it? Can you afford to fix it?"

The car looked expensive, and any damage would probably cost thousands to repair.

Owen stiffened. He knew she was worried about him, but he wondered if she had to publicly embarrass him.

Just then, Hilda chuckled.

"Hayley, Owie just got back. Give him a break!"

Hayley looked around and noticed several people watching. She nodded.

"Gordon, Hilda..."
