In the rearview mirror, the other sight caught his eye.
Charlie raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong?"
Wendy didn't peek at him like before, but at the moment when their eyes met, she still lowered her eyes to avoid it, and then looked at it again.
"Mr. Hogg..." She held Larry in her arms and pursed her lips. "I think if this happens again, you can't always shout at him. It can't solve any problem! This is the time when a child needs his father's attention. If he's not right, you can coax him and reason with him slowly..."
To reason with him?
Charlie looked at Larry again. At this time, Larry was as obedient as a little cat.
The corner of his lips twitched twice. But only if he's willing to listen to him!
They had already arrived at the apartment by the river. After Charlie parked the Land Rover, he looked at the high rise in front of him in surprise and asked, "Do you live here?"
He was familiar with this place. If he remembered correctly, his good friend, Simon, also had a house here, but he thought that only his wife lives here now.
No, it should be the ex-wife. He remembered that one day in the middle of the night, he suddenly received a phone call from Simon. Instead of the usual dashing and unrestrained tone, Simon's tone was dull. After a long time, Simon said that he was going to divorce the next day.
"Yes..." Wendy nodded.
When Charlie was about to turn off the car, Charlie's cell phone rang.
It's probably some official business, and it's always the guy on the other side of the phone talking. Charlie just answered with a few words. After hanging up, he looked back at his son, who was already holding Wendy with two small hands and getting ready to get off the car together.
Charlie frowned and said, "Miss Lim."
"I have a social engagement here. Let him stay with you for now. I'll pick him up later when I'm done."
"Oh..." Wendy, who was getting off the car, answered.
She opened her mouth and wanted to say that he could ask Aunt Lee or Uncle Lee to pick up the child, but the white Land Rover was already sailing away before her eyes.
Wendy lifted up Larry in her arms and carried him to the building.
Only the two of them were left, and Larry was very happy.
Lying on Wendy's shoulder, he looked around and became happier.
Oh, it's so close to his house! Wendy took out the key and opened the door. The room was quiet, and two pairs of slippers were placed on the shoe rack. Emily had not come back yet.
She put down Larry. There were no slippers for children, so she found a pair of new slippers from the shoe cabinet, handed them over, helped him take off the small sneakers on his feet, and then separately held his two small feet in the slippers.
Because it was a pair of cotton slippers, Larry's two little feet were almost hidden inside, looking funny and lovely.
Wendy raised her eyes and found that Larry was blushing.
Looking at the watch on the wall, she looked back at Larry behind her like a little tail. When she thought of what Aunt Lee said that he had been waiting for her in the hotel, she felt bad about it and touched his head. "Larry, are you hungry? You haven't eaten anything yet, have you?"
Larry blinked his big eyes and touched his belly with his two small hands.
"I'll cook you some noodles, okay?" Wendy smiled.
"Okay!" Larry immediately nodded.
"Okay, wait for me for a moment, and we'll have noodles soon!"
After Wendy finished speaking, she went to the kitchen. As expected, Larry followed her closely and pulled her clothes.
