The mayor's wife turned her back on her !!!

Hayley Well, Laura Dixon approached the mayor's wife to tell her about the new fashion boutique she's just opened in the main street, but the mayor's wife turned her back on her.
Julia Well that wasn't a very friendly thing to do. But I think I know why.
Hayley Really ? Well go on, tell me.

I'm up for that

I'll pass
