After the meeting, Charlie didn't go back to the office but went straight to the elevator.
He lifted the cuffs of the suit and looked down at the time on the dial on his wrist. Larry had to have his head stitches removed today, and Charlie was now ready to head to the hospital, having already pushed all of his schedules for the afternoon.
Mr. Farr answered a phone call and quickly caught up from behind, "Mr. Hogg!"
"You've been asking me to keep an eye on Miss Lim..."
Charlie looked up from the dial, he had instructed Farr about this after he recovered his memory, and although he had deliberately tripped her up with the matter of Director Huang, he still didn't want her to leave and disappear for another four years just in case.
Farr reported respectfully, "A Mr. Ye booked two tickets to Canada, including one for Miss Lim!"
"Ryan Ye?" Charlie narrowed his eyes.
"Yes!" Farr immediately nodded.
Charlie's face darkened, and the corners of his mouth tightened. "I see!"
On the way from Hogg's Group to the private hospital, the atmosphere in the Bentley was condensed. Charlie always had a heavy face when he got into the car, and the coldness that came out of his eyes seemed to freeze into ice, and the driver in front drove without looking away, not even daring to breathe.
When the car pulled up in front of the inpatient building, the driver stepped on the gas pedal and disappeared almost as soon as Charlie stepped inside.
As soon as Charlie came out of the elevator, he saw his son peeping through the crack of the door.
The little face blushed because of some excitement. Almost at the same time when the elevator door was opened, the big grape-like eyes sparkled. But when he saw it was his father, he quickly pouted his lips and continued to look around.
The humidifier in the hospital room was puffing, and the chubby figure of Aunt Lee was moving around inside, having packed up Larry's things, so that Larry could be discharged directly after removing the stitches.
When Charlie came back from smoking a cigarette in the smoking area, Larry was still standing guard at the door like a puppy, just like before. He couldn't take his eyes off the elevator, and every time the elevator pulled up, he couldn't hide his anticipation, and then his disappointment.
"Don't wait any longer. She won't come." Charlie said in a deep voice.
Larry ignored his father and still stood there firmly, continuing to stare at the elevator.
A female system voice prompted on the phone. Charlie frowned and put down his mobile phone. He ordered in an even deeper voice than before, "Aunt Lee, tell the attending doctor that we're ready to go to the consulting room!"
"No!"
Larry immediately shook his head.
Both of his cheeks were bulging and he was staring at his father, "Wendy promised to accompany me!"
"It's obvious that she's not coming!" Charlie said with a poker face.
He just called her, the system prompted that the number was turned off, and what Farr said before he came out of Hogg's Group was still ringing in his ears. She's not even going to finish the last interview, still determined to leave, and now she's not even willing to accompany her son to remove the stitches!
Larry stubbornly pursed his small mouth and said, "If Wendy doesn't come, I won't remove the stitches!"
"Why don't we wait a little longer?" Aunt Lee couldn't help but go forward and say.
At the same time in the apartment building, Wendy came out of her room, pressing her temples.
In the living room, Emily, who was carefully reading the baby manual, turned around and exclaimed exaggeratedly, "Oh my god, Wendy, you are still sleeping!"

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 😩...
