Purchased A Mr. Right

Chapter 41

Wendy Lim looked up and found that her grandma had awakened. Her aged eyes were looking at Wendy Lim.

Wendy Lim quickly moved her head to aside and wiped the tears on her eyelashes. Then she pretended nothing had happened.

"No!" Wendy Lim shook her head and patted her grandma's hand gently, "Grandma, what are you talking about? You should stay in the hospital and get treated. You can't leave the hospital until you completely recover!"

"I heard from a nurse that I need to have an operation for the second time. Is that right?"

Wendy Lim understood her grandma's worries. She smiled and said, "No worries. Don't worry about the medical expenses. I can solve it!"

"Well!" The old lady took a deep sigh, and her eyes became moist, " Wendy, I feel sorry for you. I’ve brought too much pressure to you!"

"No, grandma, I need you. I can't grow up safely without you!" Wendy Lim held the old lady's hand tightly and kept shaking her head.

When Johnny Lim drove her out of the Lim family, Wendy Lim squatted on the side of the road like a stray dog. She could still remember that it was her grandmother who had come to pick her up. Her grandma staggered to her with a cane, and her grandma had cried all the way. If Wendy Lim had no grandma, she would have starved to death on the street.

"Grandma, let's talk about something else!" Wendy Lim didn't want to make her grandma worry more. She said with a smile, "The only thing you need to do is stay here and get treated. I'll handle everything! I can stay with you long today. I’ll leave later!"

Grandma knew Wendy tried to ease her, and then she nodded with a smile.

They have talked for more than two hours. Wendy Lim worried that her grandma would feel dry, so she stood up, took the thermos, and went out to get some water.

There was a kitchen in the hospital where people could get hot water. It located at the end of the corridor, which was not far away. When Wendy Lim filled the thermos and was on the way back, she saw her grandma's attending doctor was standing at the ward door with a serious look.

Her heart trembled.

She sped up. When she saw her grandma was still lying on the bed through the ward window, she finally cooled down.

"Doctor Hsu, are you coming here to talk about my grandma's second operation?"

"Not exactly."

"Eh?" Wendy Lim was a little surprised.

Doctor Hsu thought for a while and said, "Miss Lim, we can't do the operation for your grandma again." Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"Why? Is it about the expenses?" Wendy Lim was shocked by his words and said in a hurry, "Don't worry, I will definitely find a way to pay for the operation..."

Doctor Hsu shook his head. Instead of responding to her question, he announced another bad news, "In addition, your grandma needs to leave the hospital within 12 hours!"

"What?" Wendy Lim couldn't believe what she had heard.

What she felt was like it suddenly started to rain and thunder on a sunny day.

"Sorry! I can't help you. This is a direct order from the hospital." Doctor Hsu looked a little reluctant. "Let me tell you the truth. I'm afraid no hospital will accept your grandmother in the whole city now. Miss Lim, have you offended anyone?"

The last sentence seemed to hint about something.

Wendy Lim suddenly looked up, and her pupils contracted.

She couldn't believe it but understood soon. The deep male voice echoed in her ear, "There's still time. I can wait. You will beg me one day."

Wendy Lim finally understood the deep meaning behind his words.

She looked at her grandma in the ward again. The old lady was still smiling from a distance.

Was her grandma going to be driven out of the hospital in 12 hours?

Wendy Lim almost couldn't stand still. Fortunately, she could lean on the wall next to her and didn't fall down to the floor, and then her eyes dulled. When she went back to the ward, Wendy Lim found a cold feeling spread along her spine but she didn’t show any difference on her face.

She handed a glass of water to her grandma and continued their chatting. When the sun was setting, she stood up and said that she would leave to do a part-time job.

When she left the ward, she did not go to the bar where she was working, but turned into the stairwell.

After walking down several steps, she sat on the stairs with her hands on her knees.

"If you stay with me, you don't have to come to the bar to drink with guests, and you wouldn't be slapped by your father in the Lim family."

"I can give you 30,000 dollars a month, including jewelries, bags, houses, and cars. You can tell me what you want. I will satisfy you if you make me happy!"

"I'll give you everything I've promised if you agree." "Wendy Lim, don’t let me ask again."

Wendy Lim covered ears with her hands, but the man's voice was still echoing in her ears.

Her nose was filled with the smell of disinfectant in the hospital, which reminded her that the attending doctor wouldn't change his mind.

She couldn't get in touch with Johnny Lim. Besides, she couldn't guarantee that he would help her even if she got in touch with him.

The only one she could turn to was Ewan Shaw. However, his phone was also off, just the same as Johnny Urn's. She recalled that Ewan Shaw had come to say goodbye yesterday, and then he left to America. He was so far away that couldn't help her.

Wendy Lim was sitting still until the sky gradually darkened.

The plain moonlight shined into the stairwell. Wendy Lim put her face on the cold steel armrest, and she seemed to be dead.

The door of the stairwell was opened, which made some noises. Then, the stairwell was lit up.

Wendy Lim seemed to be awakened, and her bottom line was broken down at the same time.

She stood up slowly and walked out of the stairwell step by step. She met the attending doctor again in the corridor.

Although there was a hint of sympathy in his voice, Doctor Hsu still reminded her, "Miss Lim, what I said before was not a joke. If your grandma don't leave within 12 hours, we can only push her to do

so!"

This was not a threat from the hospital but from Charlie Hogg.

"No, we won't leave." Wendy Lim answered in a low voice.

She put one hand into her bag which was in the front and stroked the handle of the knife, as if something was dying away. "Ding!"

Wendy Lim walked out of the elevator of the hotel.

She stopped in front of an upscale suite. She was not very familiar with here, but she was not totally strange. She had woken up here three times before.

There was no one in the room, so she had to wait at the door silently.

After a long time, a shining leather shoe kicked her shoe lightly.

Wendy Lim looked up and saw a tall man was looking down at her.

Charlie Hogg was wearing a dark blue suit and a necktie. He looked exquisite and neat from head to toe.

"What are you doing here?"

Wendy Lim opened her mouth and said, "I'm waiting for you..."

Charlie Hogg didn't answer. He took out the room card and opened the door. He passed by her and walked into the room with an indifferent expression.

Although it was embarrassing, Wendy Lim had to stand up and follow him. Every step for her was not easy.

Looking at Charlie Hogg, who was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, she stepped forward and said in a trembling voice, "Mr. Hogg, you ask me to be with you before..."

"I agree!"

After she finished, Charlie Hogg remained unmoved. His eyes and face kept clam, which was like a windless lake.

Wendy Lim gritted her teeth and started to unbutton her clothes.
