Wendy Lim stiffened instantly.
She was sure that it couldn't be Yolanda Linn’s foot!
She looked up and saw Charlie Hogg was cutting the beef slowly with his head lowered. The platinum cufflinks on his wrist were shining. He responded to Yolanda Lim once in a while when she mentioned the contents of the document. With a smile in his face, he seemed to know nothing about what had happened under the table.
The man was really mild on the outside but wild on the inside...
Wendy Lim clenched her fists and glared at him.
The warning in her eyes seemed to be useless. His foot was still climbing up recklessly, passing her knees and reaching to the higher parts of her legs...
She stood up suddenly.
Charlie Hogg and Yolanda Lim, sitting on the opposite side, looked up at her. The former was calm and relaxed, while the latter looked surprised. "Dear sister, what's wrong with you?"
Wendy Lim flushed but she couldn't reveal Charlie Hogg’s tricks, "I... I want to go to the bathroom!"
She took off the napkin and headed to the bathroom.
After washing her hands, Wendy Lim splashed some water on her face. The restaurant equipped with great air condition and it was really cool inside. However, she looked like a high fever patient now in the mirror.
Her shopping bags were still in her seat so Wendy Lim couldn’t slip away. She chose to squat beside a trash bin and took out her phone to play the game Snakes Subsonic. Thinking about Charlie Hogg and Yolanda Lim might have finished their meals, Wendy Lim went back to the table.
Yolanda Lim wiped her mouth with a napkin elegantly, "Sister, why have you been to the bathroom for such a long time? Charlie and I have already finished!"
"It's okay. I'm full." Wendy Lim nodded in agreement.
They got out of the restaurant and were ready to go home separately. However, Yolanda Lim suddenly stepped forward to hold Wendy Lim’s arm and said to Charlie Hogg coquettishly, "Charlie, I didn't drive my car today. Would you mind giving us a ride? My sister is carrying such a heavy bag."

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 😩...
