Wendy sat on the couch with a teacup in her hand and blew the suspended tea leaves on it, trying to pretend that she didn't hear anything but to say that her mood was not affected at all was absolutely false.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for Farr to appear.
At the same time, those who were gossiping outside also dispersed.
"Miss Lim, Mr. Flogg wants to see you!"
"Okay." Wendy nodded.
Putting down the teacup that she had yet to drink, she followed Farr out of the living room.
The door of the president's office was open, only Charlie was sitting alone in the high-backed chair, and there was no sign of Madge. In the ashtray, there was a cigarette butt that had just been put out, and the smell of tobacco had not completely disappeared.
Farr closed the door behind Wendy and then she walked in.
There was a proposal on the desk. Obviously, Madge was sitting on the opposite chair just now. Wendy pursed her lips and didn't immediately sit down. Instead, she couldn't help but blurt out, "Finished meeting your fiancee?"
As soon as she said that, she couldn't help feeling a little annoyed. What's wrong with her? She's obviously acting natural and graceful, but now she's acting like a complaining woman. She knew that she didn't feel uncomfortable at all. Maybe she was just influenced by the gossips of those female employees.
"Who said she wouldn't be jealous?" Charlie saw the situation and spat it out.
"I didn't..." Wendy was embarrassed.
Charlie leaned forward with his upper body and fixed his gaze on her face. "Then what's wrong with you?"
"I'm just..." Wendy bit her lip and thought for a while. In the end, she did not say anything but just said casually, "I just deliberately want to tease you! You deal with the documents. I won't bother you, I'm just going to stay here and brush on Twitter for a while!"
She didn't want to say it, so Charlie didn't force her.
But his deep eyes were narrowed and were always following her beautiful figure, watching her bending over and sitting on the couch. She took out her cell phone from her pocket, then lowered her head and lowered her eyelashes, watching the screen.
After Wendy turned on the software, she brushed up and down a few times.
There were quite a few interesting hot news items that she brushed up on every day when she had time, even though she's not very attached to her cell phone.
At this point, she clicked on each news item to read it, but she barely looked at them before dropping out, wondering if it was her mood or not. Suddenly, a shadow appeared in front of her. Wendy looked up and saw Charlie get up from his desk at some point and walk up to her, looking down at her in a condescending manner.
"Well, what's the matter?"
Charlie twitched his thin lips and suddenly said, "It's been a long time since I've had your coffee."
"Do you want to drink now?" Wendy was stunned.
In the past, when they were in love, he had always loved her coffee as well as noodles.
"Yes." Charlie nodded.
"There's maltose in the pantry, right?" Wendy put the phone back in her pocket and asked. When she saw him nodding again, she stood up from the couch and said, "Well, I'll go make you some coffee now!"
Charlie suddenly stopped her and said, "Give me the ring."
"What are you doing?" Wendy asked, puzzled.
"Nothing." Charlie's expression was the same as ever, and he didn't say anything else.
Wendy was confused about what he was trying to do, but she took off the diamond ring on her ring finger and handed it to him carefully, just as he said.

The readers' comments on the novel: Purchased A Mr. Right
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 😩...
