Purchased A Mr. Right novel Chapter 178

Putting her hands on the shoe cabinet, Wendy tried her best to hold her tears back.

"Yes..." Her voice was very light.

Charlie heard the sound of keys on her side, he asked, "You've just arrived home? What did you do?"

"I..." Wendy opened her mouth, afraid that she would reveal her true feelings, she paused for a moment and then spoke again, but did not mention a word about what happened tonight. "I went to the market. There's no vegetables at home."

"The food here is too bad. I want to eat the noodles you cooked."

Wendy's nose began to twitched again. "Okay, I'll cook for you when you come back."

Seemingly aware of her strangeness, Charlie asked, "What's wrong with your voice?"

"Maybe I caught a cold. Nasal obstruction..." Wendy explained.

"Is it serious? How can you catch a cold?" Charlie said in a low voice, "Is there any medicine at home?"

"If you don't take medicine in time, it will be more serious tomorrow. It won't be easy to recover in this season! Remember to take medicine after you finish your meal, and drink more hot water! Or get some ginger to eat! Do you understand?"

Wendy listened quietly to his words and felt a little warm in her heart. She suddenly felt that the grievance she had suffered this afternoon was nothing.

"Why don't you talk?"

"I'm listening to you..."

Soon, Charlie chuckled, and he said in a teasing tone, "Are you missing me?"

In the past, Wendy would refute embarrassingly. But today, she held her mobile phone and answered directly, "Yes..."

She really missed him.

She really wanted him to hug her tightly as usual.

She wanted to seek shelter from his strong and warm embrace, but she knew that he had just gone abroad and had something important to deal with. She could not make trouble for him, so she had to digest all of her bad feelings silently.

Hearing her answer, Charlie suddenly fell silent.

A few seconds later, he opened his mouth again and said in a deeper tone, "I'm going back by plane in the evening today and get to Ice city at eight tomorrow evening. Wendy, wait for me at home."

"Okay..." Wendy replied meekly.

After the call, she let out a sigh of relief and kept telling herself.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter..."

After a simple meal, when she took a shower and went to bed, her cell phone's screen lit up again. Charlie sent a text message, "Good night, miss you."

Wendy looked at the words on the screen, as if she could hear his calm voice.

Soon, another message came in. "Remember to take your medicine!"

Wendy's fingers touched the screen, and somehow a warm feeling came from between the words. The outline of Charlie's stern face appeared in front of her eyes, she finally regained her sense.

The next evening, when Wendy got off work, she received a phone call from Ewan.

Half an hour later, they arrived in a restaurant near the company.

This place was chosen by Wendy. Every time she ate with Ewan, Ewan would find some high- end restaurants. However, she was embarrassed to let him treat her all the time, but she couldn't afford to too expensive restaurant, so she chose this cheap and clean restaurant.

With Sichuan food as the main dish, the waiter recommended a few special dishes, and Ewan ordered two more.

The lemonade was served first. Ewan raised his eyebrows and said, "Wendy, I thought you would go on a date, but you still have time to have a meal with your friend. Well, it seems that friends indeed attach some important to you!"

His joking tone seemed to indicated that he had forgotten what he said in the car last time, besides, Wendy didn't take it seriously at that time either.
