"Mr. Hogg, I hope we won't see each other again..."
Wendy Lim put her hand on her forehead.
Her words were still lingering in her ears. She didn't expect that she would meet him again in such a short time.
The reason why Wendy Lim was here was a long story. Wendy Lim’s colleagues in the speakeasy bar knew that she needed a large sum of money and told her the news. They heard that a rich man had rented a luxury cruise and would hold a business party on it on the weekend. The party needed lots of service staff, and one could earn 700 dollars after two days’ work. The job was very attractive to Wendy Lim. Besides, the job started on Friday evening and ended on Sunday night, so it wouldn't cause any effects to Wendy Lim' s work on workdays. She could work for the business party as long as she asked for a leave in the speakeasy bar.
However, she didn't expect that Charlie Hogg was also on this cruise.
Wendy Lim lowered her head and looked steadily forward. She walked straight to the large bed in the center of the room. She had a short training before working on the cruise. She was making the bed quickly and quietly.
After putting the last pillow into the pillowcase, she wanted to leave quietly.
She turned around and took a few steps. The man suddenly shouted, "Stop!"
Wendy Lim stopped and stood steadily. She turned back quietly and saw that the man was still standing there with the same posture. But now he finished the phone call, then, took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and readied to light it.
"Run a bath for me."
Wendy Lim said in a low voice, "Yes..."
She slipped into the bathroom like a thief. She couldn’t understand why she was so nervous in front of him every time.
Wendy Lim squatted in front of the bathtub and stared at the rushing water. Her focus was a little bit loose. In a moment, she became clear again. Suddenly, she felt something wrong behind her. She turned around and was shocked.
Charlie Hogg was standing behind her. His tall figure shadowed her. She looked up and saw the clearly defined line of his chin.
There was a hint of surprise in Charlie Hogg's eyes when he saw Wendy Lim, but he understood why she would be here soon.
He looked at her waitress uniform. On her upper body, she wore a half- sleeved white shirt and a black jacket outside. Her two slender arms were exposed, the jacket outlined her waistline, and the belt of the jacket was just fastened under her chest. On her lower body, she wore a tight skirt and a pair of black stockings...

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 😩...
