Purchased A Mr. Right novel Chapter 591

"Ewan, why are you here?"

Wendy looked at the man outside of the door in surprise and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

His expression was extremely complicated, and he said directly, "Just when your wedding ceremony held in the church ended, I seemed to have seen Madge!"

"What did you say? Did you see Madge in the church?" Wendy opened her eyes wide.

"Yes!" Ewan nodded and said seriously, "I think it should be her. As I was helping the people from the church to play the backing tape, I saw she turned around and walked out. I chased after her and called her. She stopped for a while before she strode away in a hurry. Then I was blocked by those guests who rushed forward to give you their blessings, so I didn't catch up with her!"

Since Ewan was deeply in love with Madge, Wendy thought he would never get the wrong person.

She swallowed hard. Somehow, she felt terrified.

At the happy moment of her wedding, Madge appeared, hiding in the crowd and watching them from a distance. Wendy certainly knew that Madge would never wish them a fortunate marriage like other guests...

Ewan looked into the room and asked, "By the way, where is Charlie?"

"He has gone to the church!" Wendy frowned and said, "Not long after we returned to the room, someone from the church called him and said that he should go there to confirm something very important. Then he immediately took the car key and hurried there!"

At that time, they had just returned to the hotel after the wedding ceremony. When the church called to ask him to deal with something important, they surely thought it would be related to their wedding. Thus, they inquired no further. There was still some time before the wedding banquet, so Charlie drove to the church directly.

"How long has it been? Hasn't he come back yet?" Ewan continued to ask in a solemn voice.

Wendy estimated the time in her heart and said, biting her lips nervously, "It seems that he has been away for about an hour. I'll call him..."

She picked up her phone and dialed Charlie's number.

No one answered...

The beep sounds continued coming from the other end of the phone for a long time, but Charlie's calm voice did not show up. Wendy felt that the veins between her eyebrows pulsated more violently. The same feeling of unease that came at her yesterday nagged at her again.

Ewan looked much more serious now. He said hurriedly, "Call the church!"

Wendy nodded repeatedly. She held her phone tighter and swallowed hard. "Yes!"

She found the church's number on the Internet and then dialed it. Soon, someone picked it up.

"What did they say?" Ewan immediately went forward and asked when he saw her hanging up the phone.

"The church said..." Wendy said slowly, still holding her phone by her ear with sweat in her hands. She looked at him with panic and continued in a trembling voice, "They said that none of them had ever asked Charlie to go over... How come? Then who called him..."

There was something weird about this incident. Thus, Wendy decided to keep it from the elders and only told it to their close friends.

Simon, Emily, Tilly, and the others went upstairs to the suite. All of them wore a gloomy expression.

Wendy, haunted by the fear, could not sit still. Every once in a short while, she would stand up from her seat and then sat down again after pacing back and forth anxiously for some time.

As time went by, it had been nearly two hours since Charlie left the hotel. Farr waited at the hotel gate but did not see Charlie's white Land Rover driving back. Besides, nobody picked up Charlie's phone.

Seeing Wendy's panicked face, Emily tried her best to comfort her. "Wendy, don't worry. Mr. Hogg is probably on his way back. There is still an hour before the wedding banquet starts. Today is the most important moment in your life. Mr. Hogg has a strong sense of time and will definitely come back in time when so many relatives, friends, and guests are waiting for you!"

"Yes, she's right. He will get back in time!" Tilly hurriedly echoed.

"Um..." Wendy nodded.

Of course, she had the same hope in her heart, but she still couldn't help feeling worried.

She took a piece of tissue and wiped the sweat from her palm. Then, unconsciously, she crumbled up the tissue into a ball, pinched the paper - she must be in a very agitated state at this moment.

"Buzz... Buzz..."

Her cell phone on the bed suddenly vibrated.

Almost in two or three steps, Wendy rushed to her phone, picked it up, and pressed it against her ear.

Seeing this, everyone stood up in unison and looked at her with joy. They thought it was Charlie, but to their surprise, Wendy's face abruptly darkened, and she cried out involuntarily, "Madge?!"

Wendy's heart skipped a beat as she saw the strange number on the screen.

When she heard Madge's voice coming from the other end of the phone, her heart twitched with great anxiety.

"Wendy, congratulations! You finally married Charlie! You must be very proud of yourself, aren't you? He gave you such a grand wedding, and you must be very happy now, aren't you? When you married Charlie, you laughed so happily. So, go on laughing! I doubt how long your happiness can last! You took him away from me. You ruined my happy life and my sweet home. And it was you who sent my mother to prison! How can I let you go? Wendy, listen. No one can get what I can't get, especially you!"
