One can escape a moment, but he can't run away forever at all.
Although Wendy had taken a leave, she still had to come to work the next day. Although she had even considered whether she should resign or not, she really liked this job and it was difficult for her to give up her lovely colleagues.
The relationship with Charlie was uncovered. From the moment she stepped into the office building, Wendy felt that she had become the focus of everyone's attention, not to mention that she came out of the elevator to enter the office. Those eyes were obviously full caution.
Charlie called the general manager of the company specially, in case she would encounter a lot of unnecessary troubles when she returned to work.
But even so, from the second she sat in the chair, there were still colleagues coming to chat with her. Their words were naturally about Charlie, so she could only show an embarrassed and polite smile. Fortunately, Bonnie and Connie would shield her from them.
Originally, her job in the Finance Department was not very heavy. Now, under the secret orders of the general manager, her workload had been halved to half, and almost all of her duty had been shared by her other colleagues. She might have only copied some files and sorted out some financial expenses at most. She felt helpless about it, but she was Charlie's woman, so she had to enjoy the privilege of being his woman with ease...
However, one of the advantages was that there was no need to hide when she got off work. Charlie's conspicuous white Land Rover was parked directly at the entrance of the office building, and his tall and strong figure was leaning against the door. Under the sunset, he put one hand in his pocket, forming a very attractive scenery.
When she walked over, he would open the door.
Then he helped her to get on the car and fastened the seat belt for her. His big hand covered her still flat belly. When he straightened up, he kissed her on the lips in a high profile. Wendy's face suddenly turned red for shy and she couldn't even raise her head.
Then he drove away.
After they went to the kindergarten to pick up the little Larry, they didn't go back to the villa directly, but turned to the Lim family in the opposite direction.
In the past few times, Wendy mostly went to the Lim Family either by herself or with Charlie. Johnny had never seen Larry before. Like Kim and the Eduardo, he loved Larry very much when they first met.
Stroking the mushroom- shaped hair of the little Larry, Johnny loved it so much that he couldn't bear to let it go.
Even if there was no direct blood relationship between them, for Johnny, who lived to the age where his wife was separated from him, he would naturally be excited to see such a cute and soft grandson. On the contrary, Larry did not understand the emotions of adults. He only focused on holding tightly onto the red envelope in his hand and pursed his lips, secretly rejoicing.
On the way, Wendy received a phone call from Johnny and thought that it was just a casual meal. Unexpectedly, Johnny said a plan that surprised her.
"Dad, are you leaving?"
Johnny nodded and said with a smile, "I plan to go to a small town in Australia. The climate there is quite good. Some time ago, I have asked someone to find a house there. My former classmates are all enjoying their retirement there. It sounds like that town is in good conditions in all aspects. So I decide to go there. And tell you the truth, Ice city is nothing left for me to miss. I want to change a place to live again!"
"But you didn't have anyone to take care of you there..." Wendy said with a frown.

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 😩...
