"About this... I'm afraid I can't." Wendy looked at Bain. "Mr. Charles's brother will take the SAT in less than a month. A new tutor for him now will cause some problems, like they may not be able to get along well each other. Besides, I've already got the money."
"I will pay Henson the money for you. And the rest like the relationship between the new tutor and his brother shouldn't be your concern. Henson is not the one you can mess with. Wendy, he is like a wolf. He could 'eat' you without spitting out your bones. You can get nothing except a short-time happiness. Since now you don't get too involved, you should leave him immediately.
Short-time happiness? Bain definitely misunderstood her.
"Bain, what are you thinking about me?" Wendy felt uncomfortable.
"Wendy, I know you. Henson won't be able to be so intimate with you if you really resist it. The reason why you didn’t is because you have been attracted by him. Didn't you say that you wouldn't have the same fate as your mother? Then stay away from Henson. I say this really for your good. You have to listen to me, OK?"
Wendy clenched her fist. She didn’t resist? She just didn't want to bring any troubles to him before. However, Bain…
She didn't want to explain anything and turned to go.
Bain grabbed her wrist to stop her, "Wendy."
"It's enough." Wendy looked at him with grumble, " You don't believe me, then why are you here talking with me? Your are from the Nicholson family, and I am from the Evans family. No one will know our relationship. So I didn't lose your family’s dignity."
She shook off his hand and walked out of the stairwell.
Bain suddenly realized he had said something wrong.
He hurried to chase after her, but she had already walked into the elevator.
He wanted to follow her, but at the same time, a friend from the banquet greeted him.
Bain reluctantly walked over to his acquaintance after checking the elevator again.
Wendy twisted her ankle when she got out of the elevator. She half knelt and rubbed her ankle.
