Purchased A Mr. Right novel Chapter 168

After work, Wendy climbed up the top floor slowly.

She was a little short of breath. She took out the key from her bag. She would do this every day, but she felt particularly lonely today, especially when she looked back at the opposite security door.

After dinner, the sky outside gradually darkened.

Charlie had landed and sent her a text message to report his safety. But it seemed that he was very busy, he just said that he would call her later.

There was no interesting program on the TV. Wendy couldn't bear to watch it, she felt it was difficult to go through every second.

There was only herself in this room. After thinking for a while, she took the key to go out and took the bus to Emily's home.

"Wait a minute!"

As soon as she rang the doorbell, she heard Emily's energetic voice.

Wendy did not told Emily in advance that she would come, so Emily was a little surprised when she opened the door. "Wendy? Why did you come here at such a late hour?"

"Emily, I intend to stay here with you tonight!" Wendy didn't explain, but said directly.

"No!" Emily refused without a second thought.

"Why not?" Wendy frowned. "Did you quarrel with Mr. Hogg?" Asked Emily, not answering.

"No." Wendy explained helplessly, "He is on a business trip to Macao. It will take him a week to come back! It's boring for me to stay at home alone so I come to accompany you! Why don't you welcome me..."

"Alright!" Emily immediately changed her mind.

Wendy narrowed her eyes. "Emily, are you sure you didn't have any secrete with Charlie while hiding me?"

"I didn't! Don't do me wrong. I swear to the God!"

Emily raised her hand exaggeratedly, but her eyes were flickering, as if she was hiding something. She quickly reached out her hand to pull Wendy in and handed her slippers to distract her attention.

After taking a shower, the two of them lay down on the comfortable mattress and talked about their university days.

Gradually, Emily became sleepy, but Wendy was still chatting with her, "Wendy, can't we sleep? I'm really sleepy..."

"Let's talk for a while more!" Wendy bit her lip and didn't want to let her go easily.

They talked for about half an hour more. Wendy had already yawned, but she still didn't intend to sleep.

Emily held a small alarm clock and grumbled, "We have missed the best time for beauty sleep. If you don't sleep now, you will grow wrinkles when you wake up tomorrow! At that time, we will see if Mr. Hogg still loves you!" Wendy still refused to sleep until the phone in her hand started to vibrate.

Looking at the screen, she instantly felt refreshed. She held the phone up and put it beside her ear with her eyes shining. "... Hello? Are you done with your work?"

"You haven't slept yet?"

"Yes..."

Charlie laughed in a low voice. "Are you waiting for me?"

"No..." Wendy denied, but her tone sounded really not convincing. She blushed and changed the topic, "Have you returned to the hotel?"

"Yes, I've just come back, and I haven't changed my clothes yet. There are too many things going on. The person in charge of the case here has some problems, so we changed a new one temporarily. It will take some time for us to get used to this change!" Charlie's voice was low, and there was a trace of fatigue in it.

Wendy could hear it and said hurriedly, "Then go to take a bath and rest!"

On the other side, Charlie agreed in a low voice, but after a long while, he still didn't hung up the phone.

"Uh..." Wendy looked at her phone screen and was a little confused. "Charlie, why don't you hang up the phone?"

She knew how overbearing he was. He had to hang up the phone first, and she never dared to hang up first.

This morning, when she just entered the office, her cell phone rang.

Charlie seemed to be walking with steady footsteps, but his calm voice sounded a little tired in the morning.

"Are you tired?"

Charlie replied, "Well, I haven't slept well these two days."

"Are you too busy?" Wendy bit her lip, and her action of pulling the chair slowed down.

"This's one reason." Charlie paused for a moment and said, "Mainly because I lost sleep these two nights."

"Why? How can you lost sleep?" Wendy frowned.

Charlie didn't answer her immediately. They all remained silence at this momemt.

"Miss you." Suddenly, Wendy heard these two words.

She almost droped the phone in her hand, and one of her ears felt hot. Even though they were so far away from each other, she could feel the passion behind these two words.

There was someone who was respectfully reporting something to Charlie, so he said in a hurry, "I'm going to have a meeting."

Hanging up the phone, Wendy slowly let out a sigh of relief.

She looked up, and many colleagues came in one after another. The supervisor just walked to his office with his briefcase.

Wendy clenched her fingers as if she was thinking about something. When she released her hands again, she had made up her mind. She did not sit down, but followed the supervisor into the office.

More than ten minutes later, she came out of the office.

She was in a good mood. Wendy picked up her mobile phone and her voice trembled slightly because of some kind of joy. "Hello, Emily, can you book a flight to Macao for me?"
