After Charlie went to work, Wendy changed her clothes and went out with Larry.
Wendy and Ryan met at a Korean-style barbecue restaurant. When Wendy got out of the car, her attention was drawn somewhere, she couldn't help but ask, "Sweety, what do you have in your pocket?"
From the moment she got into the car, she noticed the bulge in the right pocket of Larry's shirt.
"Cell phone!" Larry stretched out a little and told her softly, "Daddy gave it to me!"
Wendy lowered her head and saw that it was indeed a smartphone.
She thought that on Larry's birthday, Charlie didn't prepare a gift, so the smartphone must be for him. She didn't think much of it, just told Larry to keep it in his pocket.
Wendy took Larry into the dining room, and a waiter led them to the hall.
Ryan, sitting in front of the dining table, watched from afar as the mother and son walked toward him, which can't be ignored, bringing him not only visual impact. Ever since he learned the truth, the original suspicion in his heart became clear, and the more he looked at them, the more he realized that there were actually many similarities between the mother and son...
After pulled himself together, he took the initiative to wave his hand, "Wendy!"
"Ryan!" Wendy's face lit up with joy. She immediately stroked Larry's head and said, "Sweety, say hello!"
"Uncle Ye!" Larry called out in a soft voice.
After the waiter came up with the tableware, waited for them to order and left.
Just like before, Ryan poured a glass of warm water for her in a very gentlemanly way. He also poured a glass of warm water for Larry beside her.
Wendy took it and took a small sip before asking, "Ryan, why haven't you returned to Canada?"
"Something happened," Ryan explained with a smile. "When I was preparing to board the plane, I originally wanted to call my grandparents to say goodbye. I didn't expect to know that my grandfather fell in the courtyard and was taken to the hospital. So I had to stay to take care of them!"
It's not exactly like that.
Ryan's grandfather did fall, but when he called, he confirmed that his grandfather was fine. However, he hesitated for dozens of seconds at the ticket checking station with his boarding pass and finally chose to turn around, as if he finally found a reasonable excuse to stay...
"I see!" Wendy nodded.
"Yeah, I haven't finished my vacation yet. I would like to spend more time with them!" Ryan pushed his glasses.
"You're right." Wendy agreed very much. At the same time, she also thought of her grandmother who had passed away. She felt that if it was possible, she would have to spend more time with her grandmother. After all, when your family was getting old, it's not much time left for them.
Ryan smiled back. After a pause, he asked, "Wendy, are you still planning to go back to Canada?"
Upon hearing this, Wendy put down the glass in her hand.
A little fair hand grasped the hem of her coat, and she looked down and saw Larry looking up at her with his little face, his big black grape-like eyes full of nervousness.
Wendy lifted her arm and cuddled his little head against her body, shaking her head at the opposite.
Whether it was four years ago or just a few days ago, she was determined to return to Canada because there was no one or nothing in the city that she couldn't let go of, but now that her son was here, not only did she wanted to make up for her son's lack of motherly love, but she also didn't want to miss out on his growth again.
If she's going back, unless she's going back with her son...
But almost as soon as the thought came to her, she snuffed it out, because how could that be, Charlie would never allow that to happen.

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 😩...
