As soon as Wendy entered the apartment building, her cell phone rang.
In her sight, the black Mercedes stopped in front of the flower bed. Uncle Lee, who was sitting at the driver's seat, had taken out a newspaper and spread it open. Wendy took out her phone and knew who was calling without looking at it.
She put it next to her ear, and her mouth curved slightly, "Well, I've arrived!"
"I'm ready to get in the elevator now!"
After pressing the elevator button, she continued to report further.
After Charlie took her to the Hogg's Mansion that day, Gilbert seemed to be too angry and got sick. Ella called the villa several times in a row, but it was Aunt Lee who picked it up. Charlie didn't care about it and didn't go to the Hogg's Mansion to visit Gilbert. But Donna took Larry there, and Charlie didn't object.
So she was alone today and wanted to see her best friend, Emily.
During Charlie's hospitalization, Emily showed different emotions when she was visiting Charlie with Simon, and Wendy had been thinking about it all the time.
Charlie repeatedly advised in his calm voice, "Don't let Uncle Lee go back, ask him to wait for you downstairs."
Since the last kidnapping incident, Charlie was very cautious with her travels, almost hired two bodyguards to protect her. As long as she's out of the villa, he must know her whereabouts.
Wendy knew that he was worried about her, and he was afraid that such a thing would happen again.
"Okay, I know!" She said in a softer voice.
Charlie didn't hang up until he got her promise.
Wendy came out of the elevator and knocked on the security door, but there was no response from inside for a long time.
She even suspected that there was no one home, but she had called Emily in advance and knew that she would be at home, so she came over...
When she was thinking about taking out her phone again, the security door suddenly opened.
Simon wore light- colored casual clothes and slippers of the same color. His short hair was also softly hanging in front of his forehead. He looked like a houseman. The light in his peach blossom eyes was still dizzy, but his face looked gray.
Wendy was stunned and asked tentatively, "Hey, Dr. Chin, where is Emily?"
"She's in the bathroom." Simon said, turning around to take a look.
Then he turned around and took out a pair of slippers from the shoe cabinet for her.
Wendy expressed her thanks, and then followed him to the inner room. Seeing that his back was as straight as a mountain, she could not help asking hesitantly, "You two... quarreled?"
Hearing this, Simon didn't say a word and tacitly approved.
Wendy understood what had happened. When she was about to open her mouth, she saw that the living room was in a mess. Several couch pillows were not in place. The humidifier placed on the tea table was knocked over, and the water inside dripped a carpet. Even the vase standing next to it was damaged. Although it was not broken, the fake flowers and plants inside were all scattered...
Wendy frowned.
She swallowed and couldn't help but stand in the position of her best friend, with a bit of condemnation in her tone, "Dr. Chin, no matter what, you're a man, so you should be more gracious. Even if you get angry and quarrel, you'd better give way to Emily..."
"She smashed these." Simon's voice sounded very aggrieved.
"Ahem!" Wendy suddenly looked embarrassed and stuttered, "She is pregnant..."
Pregnant women were generally very unstable, so it's normal for them to occasionally get mad or something...
