Purchased A Mr. Right -
Chapter 299
It was as if Charlie was angry with someone.
Wendy bit her lip and swallowed the words she wanted to say.
Farr looked at the cars at the door and there were almost no empty cars. He still couldn't help looking at the boss behind him, and tentatively said again, "Miss Lim, I don't think it's a good place to get a cab,
So..."
"That's great. Mr. Hogg could give us a ride!" Emily nudged Wendy's arm happily when she heard that.
Indeed, it's not a good place to get a cab. They had been standing there for half a day, and Emily had just finished her examination and was physically and mentally fragile with the news that she was pregnant. She really needed to go home earlier.
So when Wendy heard the words, she could not help but look over with a little expectation.
Charlie was still staring straight ahead, with a smooth line on his side face and a few twitches of his thin lips.
"Drive!"
Farr didn't dare to breathe, and the driver drove away directly.
Bentley soon left, leaving only automobile exhaust.
Not only was Wendy dumbfounded, but so was Emily on the side. "Wendy, did you make Mr. Hogg unhappy?" "Well, sort of..." Wendy said, pursing her lips.
"It's fine! Really!" Emily immediately understood what Wendy meant. She pointed ahead and said, "I saw an empty car coming up ahead!"
After getting in the car, Emily was immersed in the shocking news of pregnancy and was always in a daze with the test sheet in her hand.
Wendy didn't bother Emily much, giving her time to herself. And Wendy just silently turned her head to look at the street view that passed by the window. When the taxi passed by the crossroad, she suddenly saw a familiar figure.
It's Farr?
Wendy tilted her head and stared at the rearview mirror to make sure it was right.
It was just strange, Why did he take a cab on the side of the road by himself, looking depressed...
The next afternoon, a taxi stopped in front of the office building.
Wendy walked in with a computer in her hand. When she passed the revolving door, two people, both in black suits, walked out in front of her.
The figure in the front was taller and stronger. Just like yesterday when they met in front of the hospital, Charlie's deep, restrained eyes were only looking ahead, as if he did not see her, and even the corner of his eyes did not look at her at all.
His footsteps were also very fast, and he passed her through the glass door. Farr, who was following behind Charlie, couldn't even say hello to her. So he just nodded to her in a hurry.
Out of the revolving door, Wendy subconsciously turned back and saw that Charlie's tall figure had already walked to the side of the road in a flash. He directly bent over and sat in the Bentley. The window was slightly lowered, and his arm, which had just lit up a cigarette, was stretched out.
She took a breath and seemed to be able to feel the smell of smoke.
Wendy was coming over to the Price's Group today because the secretary called her to say that Chairman Price was available today so she could come over to deliver the final revised interview draft. When she went upstairs and was brought into the office, Chairman Price was sitting on the sofa with a cup of tea that was no longer hot in front of him, and opposite him was half a cup of strong black coffee. She barely had to guess who drank it.
"Chairman Price!"
Wendy walked over and nodded.
Chairman Price stretched out his hand, "Miss Lim, here you are! Sit down!"
Wendy nodded and sat down with the computer in her hand. The secretary had already come over and removed the cups and put on a new set.
As if noticing that Wendy's eyes were fixed on the coffee cup, Chairman Price said with a smile, "Before you came in, I talked with Mr. Hogg about some business! It hasn't been long since he left. Have you met each other downstairs?"
"Well, we ran into each other at the door..." Wendy lowered her eyes.
Wendy opened the computer and placed it on her knee, picked out the document, and turned it over on the table. "Chairman Price, here are a few demands proposed by you last time. Please check them first! If you have no problem with them, I will send them to the chief editor. The magazine will then be printed with this final draft!"
But after she said that, Chairman Price did not immediately look at the screen, but looked at her with a smile.
"Chairman Price, what's wrong?" Wendy was confused.
"You two are really interesting!" Chairman Price raised his eyebrows and jokingly said, "I remember that the last time you came to me, Mr. Hogg happened to come here to talk about business, but you ran away as soon as you heard it! What a coincidence! When Mr. Hogg was with me, I also told him that you would come over soon. After hearing that, he stood up and said goodbye, as if there was a wolf chasing him! Miss Lim, don't you think you two are very interesting?"
Wendy bit her lips and curled up her fingers on her knees.
She swallowed hard and awkwardly changed the topic, "Chairman Price, why don't you read the interview draft first..." Chairman Price raised his eyebrows but did not make any more jokes. Instead, he began to read the draft.
Twenty minutes later, Wendy left the office building.
She went to the magazine company again and handed over some materials to Coral. By the time she got home by car, it was already evening.
It was getting hotter and hotter. Wendy could barely feel some coolness on the occasional windy day. She was not in a hurry to get a cab, but came back by bus. After entering through the entrance to the block and following the shadows, she came face to face with two men as she reached the apartment building.
They were all dressed in black, strong, and seriou. It was inevitable that they looked a little fierce.
"Miss Lim, please come with us!"
Wendy subconsciously took half a step back. "... What's the matter?"
The two men didn't say anything, but looked at each other, then went forward separately and held her arms from left and right.
"Hey, let me go..." Wendy panicked.
By the time she realized what had happened, the two of them had already led her to a car parked by the side. She tried her best to struggle but it's useless, and now there was no one downstairs. She opened her mouth and wanted to shout, but then was stuffed into the car.
The door slammed shut and the driver stepped on the accelerator. Wendy was held in the middle, and the two of them were sitting left and right like before, not giving her any chance to break away. "What are you going to do?" Wendy frowned.
One of them said, "Miss Lim, you'll see when you get there!"
"..." Wendy could only continue to frown.
Her gaze swept from the left and right sides again. For some reason, she felt that this scene was a little familiar.
With suspicion and apprehension in mind, the car had been parked in front of a star hotel. After the door opened, the two got off in turn and led her inside.
This time, Wendy did not struggle, but followed them into the elevator thoughtfully.
It stopped on the 12th floor. Not long after they came out, she found herself stopped in front of a business suite, with the door unlocked. She directly pushed it open and went in. In front of the French window, there was a graceful back, and a glass table with a glass of red wine.
Wendy suddenly clenched her hands and shouted uncertainly, "Uh... aunt?"
