Wendy Lim lived in the oldest area of Ice City.
It was a six- story old building. There was no elevator and the corridor was narrow. Wendy Lim lived on the top floor. If it was not for the help of the taxi driver, she would not be able to take Charlie Hogg home.
For a moment, Wendy Lim suspected that he was pretending to be drunk.
However, Charlie Hogg did not open his eyes nor groan all the way. It seemed that he would not resist even if he was thrown on the street.
After putting him on her small single bed, Wendy Lim was sweating all over.
She rented this house when her grandmother was sick. She lived here alone. Except for her best friend, Sherry Sung, no one had ever been here before.
The room was filled with a strong masculine smell, which was quite strange to Wendy Lim.
Wendy Lim was watching him for a few minutes from the end of the bed, and made sure that he even didn't move his fingers. She finally relieved, took her pajamas, and left.
But after closing the bedroom door, she took out the key and locked it from the outside.
The next morning, Wendy Lim woke up very early. She didn't sleep well last night because she worried about that Charlie Hogg would break out from the bedroom...
Wendy Lim looked at her watch and found it was early. She didn’t have much spare time even in the weekends. In this morning, she would do a part-time promotion.
After washing up, Wendy Lim put her ear on the door of the bedroom for a while, and didn’t hear anything. Then she turned the key carefully and pushed the door open.
Charlie Hogg’s body was slightly crowded in her small single bed.
Wendy Lim stepped closer.
Charlie Hogg was in deep sleep. His bushy dark eyebrows almost extended to temples, which made him look cool and cold.
He still kept the same posture as last night, but his tie was gone. Some buttons on his shirt had been undid. The clearly- defined lines of his chest muscles were really eye- catching in the morning light.

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 😩...
