"His wife?" The old man repeated these two words in surprise. Then he sneered and muttered with a frown, "How come I didn't know that Mr. Hogg is married?"
Wendy felt embarrassed and explained awkwardly, "Well, I'm his fiancee..."
"Does it have anything to do with me?!" The elder's expression was cold.
Wendy bit her lip and said earnestly, "Mr. Wallace, please give me a moment. I have something very important to tell you!"
"I don't have time!" The old man said bluntly.
"I just need ten minutes, no, five minutes!" Wendy didn't expect him to be so difficult to get along with, and not only was he as stubborn and hard to talk as Donna said, but he was also a weird old man. She could only shamelessly chase him, "Mr. Wallace..."
The old man seemed to be very impatient with her pestering. He casually pointed and said, "Okay, you jump down from there first!"
"..." Wendy pursed her lips.
The direction he was pointing at was not some random places, but a high platform bungee jumping next to the golf course, visually at least fifty to sixty meters in height. She could vaguely see the person standing on it. Looking from a distance, that person was so small, as if he was walking into the clouds. Other places were fine...
Wendy looked over from a distance, and her palms were sweating slightly.
She said perplexedly, "I..."
"Come back to me after the jump!"
However, the old man did not give her any more chance to speak. He carried his crutch and left quickly.
The two fierce security guards were like two thick walls, not giving her any chance to get closer.
Wendy clenched her fists and looked at the bungee jumping platform.
Perhaps for ordinary people, they could go to try bungee jumping after more than a few psychological constructions, but for her, having a fear of heights, it's more difficult than climbing to the sky. But she had no choice, no matter what Mr. Wallace was thinking, she could only move forward...
Wendy gritted her teeth and was ready to risk everything as she walked in that direction.
There were not many people. After she finished filling in the form on the first floor, a staff member took her to the high platform.
Because she was too nervous, she accidentally bumped into someone.
"I'm sorry!"
Wendy hurriedly apologized and marched on in panic.
Just after two steps, she was chased by the person who she had just bumped into, blocking the road in front of her. It was also at this time that she saw the person's appearance clearly. It was a tall and straight man with handsome eyebrows. It seemed that he had just finished this extreme sport.
The man smiled and his Mandarin was a little stiff. His tongue was very flat and there was an obvious Cantonese tone. "Miss, you dropped your phone!"
Wendy was stunned for a while before realizing what had happened. She reached out her hand and took it in a hurry.
"Ah, thank you..." She thanked him in a hurry. Then she put the phone in her pocket, unzipped it, and caught up with the staff ahead.
Soon she came to the high platform. It's the kind of construction site steel elevator, hollow on all sides, and there was a loud "clang" sound when closing and ascending. During the process, she clutched both sides with her hands and did not dare to open her eyes.
Until the staff came forward to remind her, she realized that she had reached the top of the platform. The moment her legs stepped out, the violent wind blew, and she felt her legs tremble.
Wendy's head was in a daze, and she didn't know where to go.

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 😩...
