Wendy was carrying something and had to turn back.
When they bumped into each other at the top floor of the Hogg's Group, she had a vague feeling that Madge would come looking for her again.
Sure enough...
Wendy frowned and pursed her lips as she asked, "Miss Gray, what brings you to me again?"
She deliberately emphasized the word "again".
Madge seemed not to have heard the meaning of her words at all, but her smile remained unchanged, revealing two harmless dimples, "I think Miss Lim should know why I'm here."
"I came to the Hogg's Group today because I have something to ask Charlie." Wendy explained calmly.
"What is it?" Madge asked.
Wendy frowned deeper and said, "Miss Gray, I think I can choose not to answer your question."
"Miss Lim, I didn't mean to make things difficult for you, but..." Madge sighed, very helpless. "I hope you don't forget, but the last time I came to see you, you seemed to make it clear to me that there was nothing between you and Charlie, and that it wouldn't be long before you left! But you're still here, so I couldn't help but worry."
"Miss Gray, I remember everything I said." Wendy clutched the bag in her hand tightly. "I hope so!1' Madge smiled, shrugged her shoulders, and then said in a very generous tone, If you still don't want to go, it's okay, I won't force you, and if you want, you can even be invited to my wedding with Charlie!"
Wendy didn't like to confront Madge like this. She didn't like to talk to Madge because every word Madge said made her uncomfortable.
She turned around and walked away. "Miss Gray, help yourself, I'm going upstairs."
Madge looked at Wendy's back and stuck her fingernails into her hand.
After learning that Charlie had recovered his memory, she had been having trouble sleeping for several nights. She hated and feared the thought that the marriage she had been looking forward to for so long may not happen.
Ever since Wendy reappeared four years later, it has been like a thorn in her heart and a constant threat.
If Wendy doesn't leave on her own accord, and with Larry around, Madge feared she won't stand a chance.....
Eyes narrowed, Madge suddenly raised her voice, "I'm pregnant!"
When she drugged Charlie before, she thought in her heart that she could lie about it even if she couldn't get pregnant, but she didn't expect that Charlie would still not touch her, and now that may no longer useful to the Hogg family, but it could still be useful to Wendy Lim.
Wendy, who had already entered the building, stopped. She wanted to ignore it, or pretended that she heard nothing and continued to walk in, but her body seemed to be out of control and turned back stiffly.
"You..." She opened her mouth in disbelief.
A sharp light flashed across Madge's eyes. She deliberately raised her drooping hand and put it on her lower abdomen, showing the expression of a pregnant woman. "You didn't mishear me. I said I was pregnant. It's the child of Charlie and I!"
"Ding!"
The elevator door opened for a long time, and the focus in Wendy's eyes were still undisciplined.
It was only when the elevator doors closed again that she reacted and walked out, with mechanical steps, flipping the key out of her pocket and not inserting it for a long time, and checking it to find out that she had taken the wrong one.
From time to time, sounds could be heard from Emily's bedroom, Emily seemed to be talking on the phone.
Wendy changed her slippers and put the bag on the table. Then she walked to the sofa and sat down with a dull expression on her face.

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 😩...
