Purchased A Mr. Right novel Chapter 378

Just like four years ago, Gilbert Hogg still wanted to get rid of her with the check.

At that time, she was sitting on pins and needles, her face was pale and bloodless. She felt so embarrassed that she didn't even dare to raise her head. Now, although she had the same state of mind, she still faced Gilbert's eyes and didn't flinch at all.

Gilbert's face stiffened.

Although Gilbert felt wrong and guilty, he's used to being a leader and lecturing people for years, stubbornly not showing it. He looked at her with a sneer and repeated as if mockingly "Apology?"

"Shouldn't you do that?" Wendy asked the question without being obsequious, and straightened her back, "Chairman Hogg, I know why you came here today. But I still think that you should apologize to me first before you tell me these things!"

In the past four years, she had lived in the pain of losing her child every day.

Only a mother can know the pain she felt when she woke up from a nightmare and missed her child.

Gilbert stared at her with a cold face.

"I'll talk to you when you're willing to apologize to me." Seeing that he didn't want to apologize, Wendy stood up from her seat and said, "Sorry, I'll go first! This is the bill for the tea I took today."

At the end of it, she looked at the menu and paid for half of the tea.

When she left, she noticed that Gilbert's face had turned pale.

It seemed that he had always been used to being superior to others. He had always been lecturing others and had never been asked to apologize. So for a time, he felt very embarrassed. As Wendy closed the door, she vaguely saw that Gilbert reached into his pocket and took out a bottle of medicine.

After leaving the teahouse, Wendy didn't stop a cab and headed across the street to the bus stop.

Every time she went out these days, either with Charlie or by Uncle Lee, she hadn't taken a bus by herself and wasn't sure of the route, so she changed buses in the middle, and it took her more than an hour to get back to the villa.

When she entered the courtyard, she was surprised to find the white Land Rover which had left in the morning parked there.

Wendy changed her shoes and walked to the living room. Aunt Lee, who was sharp-eyed, saw her first, and immediately reported to the inside.

"Sir, Miss Lim is back!"

As soon as Aunt Lee finished, Charlie, who was sitting on the couch, suddenly stood up.

The tall figure came quickly and almost instantly arrived in front of Wendy. A deep wrinkle was formed between his eyebrows. The expression on his face was also somewhat stiff, and he grabbed her hanging hand eagerly.

He seemed to realize that he had lost his manner, then relaxed a little before he asked, "Why didn't you answer the phone?"

Upon hearing this, Wendy subconsciously reached out to touch her pocket and said, "I forgot my phone upstairs..."

At that time, Gilbert came all of a sudden. She just took her handbag and followed him out. She did not check whether her cell phone was inside or not.

"Then what took you so long?" Charlie frowned.

"I didn't get a cab. I took the bus..." Wendy explained.

Noticing that he was wearing the suit he had worn in the morning, with his jacket and his tie still on, she looked down at her watch and couldn't help but ask, "Charlie, why aren't you in the office at this hour?"

"I came back early." Charlie twitched his mouth and said lightly.

What she didn't know was that as soon as she left with Gilbert, Larry called Charlie and said that Wendy had been called out by his grandfather. Moreover, his grandfather looked so fierce. How could Charlie stay in the company to have a meeting? So he called off the meeting straight away.

Wendy had already vaguely guessed something, "You know that I went to see your father, don't you?"
