Wendy calmed herself down, and it was a diamond ring.
With the perfect cutting technique, it shone brightly in the sunlight.
It was with great difficulty that she took her eyes off the diamond ring and looked at him in a daze, "... When did you buy it?"
Yesterday morning he was at Hogg's Group, returned to the villa at noon, picked up her and Larry and went to the fishing park, after that they were always together, it's impossible for him to have time to buy it...
"Four years ago." Charlie's eyes were deep.
Four years ago, Charlie went to help Donna overcome a crisis in her company, and the day before he came back, he took Farr with him to buy a diamond ring. However, after returning to the country, a series of events led to their separation, and the diamond ring remained locked in a cabinet at the bottom of his desk.
He turned the ring over yesterday when he left Hogg's Group to pick up Wendy and Larry.
Wendy could not hide the surprise in her expression when she heard that.
She lowered her head again and found that although the diamond was dazzling, the box seemed to be a little old as if it had been sitting somewhere for a long time.
Four years ago...
Wendy fell into memories because of what he said.
She swallowed a mouthful of saliva and her right hand was suddenly picked up by Charlie. When she finally realized what was happening, he put the diamond ring on her ring finger. It was neither too big nor too small.
Wendy frowned. "I haven't said yes..."
"But you didn't say no." Charlie replied confidently.
"..." Wendy bit her lip.
Charlie lowered his head and gave her hand, which was wearing a ring, a very light kiss with his thin lips.
Wendy's breathing was trembling, the diamond ring glittered as she moved her finger, and she felt dizzy.
Charlie got out of the car with his long legs and went back to the driver's seat from the original path. He opened the door, leaned over and looked back at her. "What are you waiting for? Not getting off?"
"...Oh!" Wendy was embarrassed.
She was standing there in a daze...
Awkwardly picking up her bag, she slammed the car door and walked quickly to the villa.
When she pushed the door open and went in, the white Land Rover in the yard also started the engine to leave.
Wendy peeked through the gap at the tail lights of the car that left in a long stride, withdrew her gaze and looked again at the extra diamond ring on her right ring finger, caressing the angular cut surface on it, she still felt unreal.
Was that a proposal...
There was no flower or kneeling. It was not romantic at all!
However, it was so him.
Wendy could not help but feel a little annoyed. If she had known this would happen, she would have at least rejected him in a reserved manner...
In the evening, Wendy reduced the stove fire and let the ribs inside the pot continue to simmer slowly to condense the soup. Outside in the dining room, Larry had already climbed onto a dining chair and was waiting with both hands on his cheeks for the meal to be ready.
There was a noise from the entrance, and Larry's ears perked up when he said, "Daddy's back!"
Upon hearing this, Wendy couldn't help but walk toward the entrance.
The door was opened from the outside, and Charlie's tall figure came into view bit by bit.
"Charlie, you're back..."
Wendy put her hands behind her back and greeted him cautiously.
"Yes." Charlie's lips twitched. When he leaned over to change shoes, he handed the coat he just took off to her and said, "Hang up for me."
"Oh, okay." Wendy stretched out her hand and took it. She stood on tiptoe to hang his clothes on a nearby hanger, and Charlie just happened to walk inside with his slippers.

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 😩...
