Chapter 105
Wendy took a bunch of spinach and threw it into the shopping cart.
When she got all the vegetables she wanted, the redness on her face finally faded away. When they was about to arrive the cashier, Charlie suddenly stopped her.
"Wait a moment."
Wendy was puzzled. "What?"
Charlie frowned slightly and twitched his lips, "One more thing."
"...What's that?" Wendy looked at the cart and checked.
Charlie remained silent and walked towards another goods shelf.
Wendy had to follow him. But when they got there, she wanted to bury her face in the shopping cart.
There were various kinds of colorful small boxes on the shelf. The slogans on them including "Ultra Thin Free", "Tickle me" and so on. It was really eyecatching but also embarrassing. Wendy was in a panic.
Charlie raised his eyebrows at her and asked, "Choose one you like?"
"I, I don't care...all good" Wendy stammered, not knowing where to put her eyes on.
"It's not only for me, but also for you." Charlie picked up one slowly.
"...I said all good!1' Wendy's face began to burn again.
Her hands were sweating on the cart. She always felt that people passing by were staring at her. She was going crazy.
After a while, Charlie was still selecting with great interest. She bit her lips and said, "Charlie Hogg, have you done?"
"Almost." He picked some and threw them into the cart.
The next second, Wendy rushed to the cashier with the shopping cart.
When she decided to stay with him at the very first, she had been to the convenience store to buy the condoms. She still felt awkward when she thought of it.
They were about to arrive at the cashier, when Charlie caught up with her, Wendy put the cart into his hands and said, "Er... I'll wait for you outside!"
After that, she ran away quickly.
Wendy walked out from another way and waited for him by the escalator. Suddenly, her phone rang. It was her best friend Emily.
Thinking that she hadn't told her that she wouldn't go back tonight, she hurried to pick it up.
When Charlie came out after paying the bill, Wendy had hung up, but she seemed to be a little absent-minded.
They took the escalator to the underground parking lot, which was really slow.
Wendy's eyes fixed on the escalator, and Emily's words were still echoing in her ears.
"Anyway, you should thank Mr. Hogg. If he didn't come that morning, how could your father, your stepmother, and your sister let you go easily? I think they might beat you hard, and maybe you'll be lying in the hospital now!"
"You should thank him for his help. You know what he wants most?"
"What's more, I don't ask you to put on the sexy lingerie and show on the street. You only need to show him. Don't be afraid!"
"Wendy, you should be grateful!"
Her shoulder was touched by someone, and Wendy came back to her senses in a panic.
"Why are you in a daze?" Charlie frowned.
Wendy shook her head and answered, "Er, nothing..."
She was wearing 3cm high heels today. Standing beside him, she was still one head shorter than him. Only when she raised her head could she clearly see the sharp outline of his face.
Wendy pondered for a few seconds and said, "You came to my home to help me that morning. I haven't said thanks to you yet..."
"You know I like you do something to thank me." Charlie said with a mischievous look.
"..." Wendy swallowed. They were going to get off the escalator. She clenched her hands behind her back, as if she was in a deep struggle in her mind.
The wheels of the cart made a rumbling sound at the connection of the escalator. Wendy stepped on the floor and licked her lips. She suddenly hesitated and said, "I want to go to the toilet first..."
"There's one ahead. I'll go with you." Charlie pointed at the signage in the distance.
"No, thanks!" Wendy refused in a hurry and explained, "It was usually a long line in the female toilet..."
"It's okay."
"I can really go alone!"
Charlie looked at her, and Wendy looked away guiltily. She tried to calm down and said, "You can go to get the car first. I'll wait for you at the main entrance, so that you can leave directly without delay!"
"OK." Charlie nodded.
Watching his tall figure gradually walking away, Wendy turned around and sped .up
However, she did not stop when she passed the toilet. Instead, she headed to the shopping mall upstairs, where music was playing. There were so many cabinets, and a beautiful shopping guide stood at the door.
Wendy went straight into one of them.
After entering, she said in a low voice, "Hello, can you recommend a set for me..." It took some time to pick one and pay the bill. When Wendy came out of the mall again, she tried to keep calm and didn't show any differences. However, the shoulder-length bag in front of her was bulging a little bit.
The white Land Rover had already been parked there. Charlie was not sitting in the driver's seat, but leaning on the car. His legs were crossed and his head was lowered. He raised his hand to protect the blue flame of the lighter and lit a cigarette.
Two young women passed by and frequently stopped to look back at him.
In the end, they ran back to him and chatted with him.
Although Charlie kept a cold face, it couldn't stop the two passionate young women. They took out their phone and asked for his phone number.
Charlie frowned at them.
When he saw Wendy, he seemed to find the hope. He said to her in an impatient tone, "It's been a long time since you went to the toilet!"
"Uh." Wendy equivocated, "There was a long line..."
The two young women looked at each other, shrugged their shoulders and left.
When Wendy was about to get in the car, she couldn't help looking back. One of the two women seemed not want to give up and looked back from time to time.
She thought of Yolanda who had been chasing after him in the Hogg's Group, and sighed silently in her heart. Not only beautiful women were dangerous. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
After returning home, Wendy was busy in the kitchen.
These were things she often did, so she was very skilled. About half an hour later, she had already cooked four dishes and put them on the table.
There were meat and vegetables, but not too much on each plate. They were just enough for two of them.
When Wendy finished cleaning up in the kitchen and went upstairs, Charlie was making a phone call. It seemed that he was talking about work. With a serious look on his face, he uttered some syllables from time to time.
She put a glass of water beside him, pointed at the bathroom, and said to him in a low voice, "I'll take a shower first!"
Charlie nodded and continued the phone call.
Wendy turned around and walked to the bathroom. She looked back from time to time. While he was not concentrating on her, he secretly took her bag in her arms.
