Purchased A Mr. Right novel Chapter 225

"Charlie, you're back!"

It was a gentle female voice that broke the silence.

Wendy looked over and saw Madge sitting on the sofa, wearing a very stylish high-collar sweater. It seemed that she was out of the hospital. Although she was still a little haggard, it didn't affect her outstanding beauty at all.

There was a noble woman sitting next to Madge. They have similar eyes and should be mother and daughter.

The woman seemed to look at her up and down, and there was some uncertainty in her sharp eyes.

"Charlie, do you know what day it is today? Where is this place?" Gilbert put down the cup in his hand. It seemed that he had his anger suppressed because of the presence of Madge and her mother Linda. "Madge and Linda are our families. How dare you bring irrelevant people to my house! Where is the housekeeper? Housekeeper? How can you let an outsider in!"

Wendy slowly lowered her head and felt ashamed.

Charlie frowned and said in a low voice, "Wendy is not an outsider."

His voice was not loud, but it fell right on everyone's heart.

Except for Wendy and Charlie, the expressions on the faces of the rest were frozen. "Uncle Hogg, don't be angry! It's your birthday today. Besides, since she's a friend of Charlie, it'll be more fun to have more people to celebrate for you." Madge interrupted loudly at this time, and once again, her few words defused the awkward atmosphere.

When Madge turned her head to look at her mother next to her, she couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Mom, are you all right?"

"I'm okay!" Linda seemed to come to her senses just then, and also smiled and spoke up, "Hogg, Madge is right. It's better to have more people to celebrate for you! She's a guest anyway, we don't need to kick her out and make it unpleasant!"

At this point, Linda looked back at Wendy again. "We still don't know your name, Miss?"

"My surname is Lim..." Wendy replied.

"Lim?" Linda frowned and said in a tone a bit of surprising.

Wendy looked at Charlie's and her hands that were always intertwined. Charlie had been holding her hand tightly all the time, and she could feel the continuous power. In addition to telling herself not to be afraid like what she did when she entered the door, she also straightened her back.

If she wanted to be with him, she'll have to be there for him.

Taking a deep breath, Wendy stepped forward. "Uncle... Chairman Hogg!"

Thinking of Gilbert's dissatisfaction, she quickly changed the way of calling him, and said respectfully, "I'm sorry to bother you so rashly! I know it's your birthday today, so I..."

"If you knew it's a bad idea, you shouldn't have come here!" Gilbert interrupted Wendy coldly.

Wendy bit her lip and quickly lowered her eyes. She didn't want anyone to see the pain in her eyes.

Although she was prepared to be taunted and treated badly, she's still embarrassed.

"Brother Hogg, why are you being so unsympathetic?" Linda saw that Wendy was holding something in her hand with sharp eyes and said with a smile, "I see Miss Lim has a gift in her hand. Why don't you take a look at it? Anyway, It's a nice gesture!"

Hearing Linda's words, Wendy took out the box wrapped in a bag and carefully put it on the tea table. "Chairman Hogg, this is a small present for you. I hope you like it..."
