"What?" Linda, who was about to enter the ward, turned around with a frown.
Wendy just watched Linda standing up from the chair arrogantly, she couldn't keep calm. At this time, she stared at Linda's eyes and deliberately said meaningfully, "You know what I mean!"
Linda was stared at by Wendy's sharp eyes and felt a little unnatural and even guilty. But after all, she was the hostess of the Gray family, so her face soon returned to normal. She smiled and said, "Well, I don't know what you are talking about!"
"I'm sorry, I can't send you out. I still have to go back and take care of my husband!" After saying this, Linda turned around and entered the ward.
Wendy watched the door of the ward close in front of her and slowly withdrew her sight.
She was a bit subdued, but just now she also wanted to test Linda and see what kind of reaction Linda would have.
Although she felt that there was something strange and puzzling in her heart, in fact, even if Linda really knew about it and did not tell Kim, it still made sense from where Linda stood. But for some reason, she couldn't help thinking more.
The night was dark, and the moon was hanging high in the night sky. Wendy sat in the living room with a pillow and watched TV. When she yawned, Aunt Lee's footsteps sounded behind her. "Miss Lim, Mr. Hogg hasn't come back yet?"
"No." She shook her head.
He always stayed with her in the hospital a few days ago. Although a lot of documents were sent by Farr for him to review, there was a lot of business in the company piled up. He didn't come back to have dinner in the evening, so he must be working overtime in the company.
Wendy glanced at the kitchen, and couldn't help but remind, "Aunt Lee, please reheat the food again, it's probably getting cold!"
Aunt Lee answered her and then said to her, "Miss Lim, you'd better go to bed early! Sir has specifically told me that you have just been discharged from the hospital and your body is still recovering. Be more careful!"
"Okay!" Wendy replied with a smile.
She knew about it. After coming back from the hospital in the morning, Charlie told Aunt Lee to take good care of her and repeated it again before he went out.
When she turned off the TV and got up, she took a look at the time. It was almost 9:30. He said on the phone that he would come back at about this time.
She took her phone and dialed him over as she went upstairs.
But there's only a system female voice answering her, indicating that Charlie had already turned off his phone. Wendy frowned, first went to the children's room to help sleeping Larry to cover, and then went back to the bedroom to wash up, avoiding the cut and simply wiped the body, lying on the bed and read a book, and before she knew it, it was almost eleven o'clock.
She got out of bed and looked out of the window. There was still no sign of white Land Rover in the yard.
Charlie was still not back ...
He didn't come back, how could Wendy sleep? She couldn't help but call him again. She thought if his phone was still turned off, she would call Farr directly. But this time he picked it up.
"Hello, who are you?"
On the line, a delicate female voice came.
Wendy was stunned and couldn't help looking at the phone screen. She began to doubt if she had dialed the wrong number, but the name "Charlie" was on the screen.
"Who are you?" She immediately sat up straight and asked, "Where is Charlie?"
With charming laughter, the female voice replied slowly, "Mr. Hogg has gone to the bathroom. There's no time for him to answer the phone now!"
Wendy gritted her teeth and hung up the phone directly.

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 😩...
