Wendy observed his expression and asked tentatively, "How about this... Is this okay?"
If she was required to say something more, she would really be at her wit's end.
Fortunately, Charlie did not ask her to continue. Instead, he blew out some smoke, stretched out his hand to hold the back of her head and pushed her forward.
Wendy subconsciously closed her eyes, and then she felt his tongue.
A deep kiss ended.
Charlie's deep black eyes were so close to her, and there were some lights sparkled in them. His words were like a spell, "Remember, you are mine!"
Wendy nodded under his gaze.
"Cook for me!" Charlie let go of her.
"OK..." She was obedient.
Wendy watched him swaggering away. The handmade suit fitted him well, and he looked great. Only his back was enough to show the charm that a successful businessman should have.
Thinking of his behaviors just now, Wendy bit her lips.
Was he the boss who had controlled a big company?
He acted like a little boy... After dinner, Charlie was smoking on the sofa. There was still the boring financial news on the TV.
When Wendy finished cleaning up and came out of the kitchen, she saw him pointing at the armrest of a sofa with the hand holding a cigarette, "Your phone keeps vibrating."
"Oh!" She walked over.
Her phone indeed vibrated in her bag.
Wendy worried that she would disturb Charlie who was watching TV, so she deliberately walked away with her phone, "Hello?"
"Wennie, it's me."
A bolt of lightning flashed across Wendy's head.
She couldn't be wrong. Only that man would call her like that..."
She opened her mouth, but only to find that it was difficult to breathe.
The thoughts of that man spewed up like a spring. The feeling was so strong that almost engulfed her. Only by clenching her hands tightly could she have the courage to listen to him.
She didn't make any response for a long time. The man on the phone became a little nervous, "Wennie, can you hear me?"
Wendy hung up the phone in a hurry.
Wendy was so shocked that she was staggering on the floor.
Even if she had hung up, but the voice of that man seemed to still be lingering in her ear. Wendy held her cell phone tightly and turned around. She didn't know when Charlie was standing behind her.
He has a huge shadow under the light, which overshadowed her.
"Who is calling?" Charlie frowned.
Wendy lowered her eyes and said, "An insurance salesman..."
Charlie didn't say anything. He just glanced at her mobile phone, then leaned over and lift her into his arms.
Wendy did not make a low sound as usual, and she did not even struggle. She still half-closed her eyes, and her eyelashes cast two shadows, hiding the real emotions in her eyes.
Having no time to take a shower, Charlie entered the bedroom and went to bed directly.
They made some faint rustles. He reminded her in her ear, "Stay focused!"
Wendy seemed to hear nothing and buried her face in the pillow.
When he tore open the package of a condom with his teeth, the only thing she did was to hold her cell phone tightly.
Wendy looked at the street view passing by through the window and felt a little dizzy. But now, she had no time to think too much, because grandma would have an operation in the coming days.
Even though she did not look back, she could still feel that the man next to her was staring at her.
His eyes were so penetrating as if they could pass through her body. Wendy could not stand up anymore. She slowly turned around and met Charlie's deep eyes.
"You haven't answered me yet. Why did you cry last night?" When they got up this morning, Charlie had asked her the same question.
She didn’t answer him at that time and took to cook noodles downstairs as an excuse to escape.
He kept staring at her, which locked her in his sight. Wendy told him half- truth, I'm worried about grandma..."
The frown on Charlie's face released a little, "Has the date for the operation been confirmed?"
"Yes, it's in the afternoon of the day after tomorrow." Wendy nodded.
Charlie paused for a moment, then slightly lifted his chin and looked ahead, "Farr, am I available in that day afternoon?"
Farr quickly checked on the iPad after hearing his words, then reported to him, "Mr. Hogg, you have an internal meeting at 9 o'clock in the morning. After that, you need to see two clients. After lunch, we have made an appointment with the CEO of the Legend Company to talk about some cooperation. At 3 o'clock in the afternoon..."
Wendy didn't listen to Farr carefully. She looked out through the window again. When the Bentley stopped before the office building, she got out of the car and left quickly.
On the day of grandma's operation, Wendy took a day off.
She sat on a bench in the corridor outside, staring at the lights in the operating room.
Although Simon, an expert in heart bypass surgery, was doing the operation himself, grandma was in a high risk due to age. She worried a lot.
There was only her shadow on the floor. As time went by, her anxiety and panic increased, and she could only hold her own hand.
Suddenly, a familiar sound of leather shoes stepping on the floor came from far to near.
Wendy looked over subconsciously and saw the tall figure of Charlie.

Hate deception and Abby and Dylan take the cake ,ugh...
NO!!! Tina belongs with Wilson…. Let Dylan and Abby get together...
Wow, once again the villain messes up the true love, Abby needs to go back abroad. And Tina’s true identity as the daughter of Bill Ambrey needs to be exposed! Then the families can “convenience marry” !! Abby is a witch....
Too bad Wilson can’t figure out that his and Tina’s ex’s and his cousin Desmond are conniving creeps!...
Anthea is so stupid, lying and leaving the man who loves her more than life itself. 🤬...
She deserves to be unhappy, being with someone she doesn’t love because of resentment for the exact thing she is doing, hopefully she ends up with no one. Calvin is a wimp and doesn’t love her, just wants a wife to please his family....
So the same basic story as Simon and Addy but stupid Emily is going to marry him! What a hypocrite! Ugh...
Emily gets more stupid every chapter, when did she pickup Calvin as a fiancé!!?? This story line is awful….very sad to do to Simon what she “thought” he had done but didn’t. She is truly a dumb woman. Simon never loved or really even cared for Addy….what the hell is she doing with someone she doesn’t even know or like/love. Awful 😢...
Emily is a fool, don’t let go of the man who truly loves you. Let go of the past, of which he did nothing but help someone who saved his life, and be happy with him… he is your soulmate....
Nothing like cutting off your nose to spite your face Emily. Just stupid! Ugh 😩...
