"Oh, Patricia, you're home!" Mrs. Miller was pleased to see her daughter walk into the kitchen. "Are you hungry? Dinner's almost ready. I'll just set these aside for tomorrow."
Patricia slowed near the kitchen counter, watching her mother carefully close a food container.
As Mrs. Miller placed the large container into the fridge, she asked, "Did you ask Penny what she likes for tomorrow?"
"Mom, Penny will eat anything — even leftovers," Patricia sighed. "Just prepare anything, and she'll eat with a grateful heart."
Mrs. Miller laughed, pleased with Penny's easy-going nature. The Millers — particularly Patricia and Mrs. Miller — harbored lingering animosity toward the Bennets, their former business competitors. However, after the Prime Group and the Bennets saved the Miller family from bankruptcy, and with Patricia now employed at Prime Group, Mrs. Miller had begun to see the Bennets' actions in a more positive light.
Oh, how the world turns.
