Purchased A Mr. Right novel Chapter 136

In following two days, everything seemed to go smoothly.

Wendy returned to her desk with some documents. She took out her phone from the drawer and looked at it. There were two missed calls, which were from the same person.

She thought for a moment and did not call back. Instead, she edited a text message: What's the matter?

As soon as she sent it out successfully, she received a call.

Wendy's phone vibrated and made her fingers numb. She quickly picked it up,"... Hello?"

"Are you at work?" Charlie's calm voice sounded.

"Well, I've just finished a meeting..."

"I'm reading some documents."

"Oh..."

Wendy bit her lips. She didn't understand why he called. It seemed that he didn't have anything important to say.

Charlie continued speaking, "I'll go home after work. What about you?"

"I'm going to attend a business dinner with my leader."

"With the Supervisor Chan in your department?" "Where are you going?"

Wendy told him the address, and he didn't make any comments, but said, "I'm going to hang up. I have a video conference."

After that, he hung up.

Wendy looked at the phone screen and became speechless. She still didn't understand why he called. Such kind of phone call often happened between lovers, and the purpose was to know each other's whereabouts...

As she put the phone back in the drawer, a colleague came over and gossiped, "Wendy, your boyfriend?"

"No!" Wendy shook her head.

"I don't believe you. You talked so softly and gently. If he was not your boyfriend now, he should become yours soon!" The colleague curled her lips.

Wendy was embarrassed and helpless, "He's not..."

The colleague still didn't believe Wendy and went back to her seat to continue working. The colleague couldn't help looking at her face in the mirror and shook her head.

After work in the evening, Wendy packed up her bag and went directly to the dinner with supervisor.

Just as before, she was in charge of pouring wine to others. When she finished a round, she felt the vibration and said, "Supervisor, it seems that you have a call!"

"Oh, really?" The supervisor, who raised his glass, took out his phone from his coat.

In a near distance, Wendy vaguely saw "Mr. Hogg" on the screen of his phone, and she was not quite sure.

The supervisor apologized to others on the table and walked to the window to pick up the phone. It seemed that he looked back at Wendy for several times.

The supervisor finished the call and came back, after a while, he went to the bathroom. When he came back, he was in a painful look.

Wendy hurriedly closed to him and asked, "Are you all right?"

"Not so good." The supervisor shook his head, frowned, and said in a serious tone, "Wendy, I have gastritis and can't drink more. You may need to help me later!"

Wendy bit her lips and looked at the dinner table.

People sitting around the table were all important government leaders. They were powerful, and their words counted. Wendy couldn't offend any one. After hesitating for a while, she had to nod.

During the dinner, endless glasses that filled with wine were put before Wendy.

At last, she couldn't remember how many glasses she had finished. She only knew that when she sat down, she had to hold the table, and the dishes on the table were circling.
