Purchased A Mr. Right novel Chapter 574

He looked as if he had been standing here for a long time.

Wendy felt warm in her heart. She closed the study door and took the initiative to put her hand in his big hand.

Because she was holding the rosewood box Gilbert gave her in her other hand, and Gilbert's words were still ringing in her ears, she took every step carefully, for fear that she would accidentally slip down.

Seeing that she kept her head down all the time, Charlie pursed his lips. He thought that she had just been wronged inside, so he frowned more tightly and asked in a low voice, "Wendy, what bad words did my dad say to you? Did he make things difficult for you?"

"No..." Wendy shook her head blankly, then looked worried and asked nervously, "Charlie, what is the family punishment of your Hogg's Group..."

Charlie was shocked.

After hearing the whole story from her mouth, he stared at the jade bracelet in the box. When he was born, his mother died out of massive postpartum bleeding. He didn't even have a memory of her mother. He could only imagine and miss his mother in the photo. He didn't know anything about the jade bracelet. When he touched it with his fingers, he couldn't calm down for a while.

When he looked up and saw that Wendy's whole face was wrinkled because of worry, he couldn't help laughing. "There's no such a thing. He is teasing you!" "Really?"

"Of course."

Wendy breathed a sigh of relief and put her heart back to her stomach, but she still held the box tightly. Looking back in the direction of the study, she blinked her eyes and said, "In fact, I think your father seems to like me very much..."

"He definitely doesn't like you more than I do." Charlie's thin lips curled up.

There were not many opportunities to hear such sweet words from him. Wendy's heart could not help but swing. Although she knew that the occasion was not suitable, she still did not restrain herself. Wendy looked around and saw that there were no servants. She took the initiative to kiss him.

The family of three stayed at the old house for dinner.

On the long dining table, there were only Gilbert and his wife besides them. Ewan had not stepped into the old house for a long time. It seemed that Gilbert was very angry with him because of the business crimes. Now, he bought a ticket to the night after Madge was sent abroad. Ella, who was opposite him, seemed to be very upset.

Although it was not very lively, the atmosphere was quite harmonious. The servants next to him noticed that the master seemed to be in a good mood today. Although his serious face did not show much emotion, he drank two glasses of wine in a row.

After dinner, Charlie took the initiative to follow Gilbert to the study.

The door closed, and it seemed that the father and son had not had such a chance to spend time alone for some time. Gilbert went to the desk and sat down, suddenly raised his hand and slammed it on the table with a "bang", making a loud noise.

Charlie seemed to have expected this, so he was not surprised at all. He just lazily pulled out the chair opposite Gilbert and sat down.

"Unfilial son!"

Gilbert's eyes widened as he angrily asked, "You're deliberately hiding it from me, aren't you? If I hadn't picked up Larry here today and heard him call her little grandfather, I wouldn't have known that Wendy was Kim's daughter!"

"Mm." Charlie lifted his hand and caressed his chin, not denying it.

"You're trying to piss me off, aren't you?" Gilbert was furious. "Don't think that I don't know what you are planning. You deliberately don't let me know. You want me to accept her before I found her background and then fight with me in turn. Am I such a mercenary person?"

Charlie raised his eyebrows and said bluntly, "Now that you know she's the daughter of the Gray family, you're happy to accept this marriage?"
