Purchased A Mr. Right -
Chapter 340
The black Bentley was driving in the sunset.
The driver in front looked at the front and focused on driving, and didn't just look into the rearview mirror casually.
Madge had been raised like a lady since she was a child. No matter where she sat, her posture was very elegant. Ever since she got on the car, her eyes never left the man next to her with his eyes closed.
The black handmade suit could not cover his tall figure even if he was sitting in the car. The collar of the white shirt was looking new, which accentuated the raised Adam's apple, as well as the rigid facial features.
He exuded a kind of aggressiveness that he didn't even know.
For some reason, Madge felt a little uneasy.
When she was at Hogg's Group, he finally agreed to meet her. She told him that Gilbert wanted them to go back to Hogg's Mansion for dinner tonight and set a date for their wedding. He laughed profoundly and said that it was time to talk about it.
That smile, and the way he looked at her, were different from the way he used to be. Usually, there wasn't much enthusiasm in his eyes, but there was not a layer of frost.
Madge felt that she was thinking too much. Perhaps Charlie was still angry with her about what happened to Larry. Besides, since Gilbert was also there, she's not afraid of Charlie.
She looked at him with more and more obsession in her eyes. She wanted to get closer to him, but there was still the driver in front, so she had to be reserved.
She noticed that his hand laid on his thigh, which was wide and thick, and his knuckles were long and slender. She even imagined the feeling of being wrapped by this big hand. After getting in the car, Charlie closed his eyes, as if he had fallen asleep.
Madge looked him up and down for two seconds. She couldn't help but stretch out her hand and wanted to hold him...
However, just as she was about to touch his hand, Charlie suddenly withdrew his hands and opened his eyes.
When Madge saw this, she said in a complaining tone, "Charlie..."
"What's wrong?" Charlie raised his eyebrows indifferently.
"Mr. Hogg, we're here!"
At this time, the driver in front stopped the Bentley in front of Hogg's Mansion and reported respectfully.
Charlie twitched his lips and said, "I see."
After the car door was opened, he walked directly into the villa with long legs. The tall and strong figure was cold and did not have the intention to wait for the people behind him. Madge felt disappointed and had to carry her bag to follow him quickly.
As soon as they entered the living room, Madge called in a sweet voice, "Uncle Hogg!"
"Madge, you're here!" Gilbert put down the newspaper in his hand and smiled. Then he looked at his son with satisfaction and said, "You're back, Charlie!"
Charlie narrowed his eyes and just sat down on the sofa with his legs crossed.
"Uncle Hogg, I haven't been to see you for a few days, but if you hadn't called today, I would have had to come too!" Madge smiled and said, "I've asked someone to get this calcium tablet from abroad. It's especially suitable for someone of your age!"
"Haha, good girl!" Gilbert said. He looked in the direction of the kitchen and pondered for a moment before saying, "The food in the kitchen hasn't been prepared yet. Let's go to the study first and talk!" "Fine." Charlie, who had been silent since he entered the door, finally opened his mouth.
In the study, Gilbert entered the room and sat in front of the desk. Charlie and Madge sat on the old-fashioned wooden chairs opposite each other.
Gilbert cleared his throat and said in a particularly serious voice, "Charlie, Madge, I have only one purpose to call you here today, it's about your wedding!"
"Uncle Hogg, whatever you say, I'll listen!" Madge showed two dimples in her cheeks. "Your mother has sent me a few dates. I've also taken a good look at them!" Gilbert looked at the two of them and continued, "I mean, sooner rather than later, at the beginning of next month. Charlie, Madge, what do you think?"
Charlie maintained his cross-legged posture. There was not much expression on his face, as if he was just sitting there and listening to the conversation.
When Madge heard this, she smiled warmly, "Uncle Hogg, I still think everything is up to you!"
"The cooperation between the Hogg's and the Lu's has become closer and closer these years. Both your parents and I hope to see you get married as soon as possible. It's one of our concerns! Besides, you've been engaged for four years now, and all that's missing is a wedding!" When Gilbert said this, he did not forget to emphasize, "But don't worry, Madge, although there's not much time left, the wedding will definitely not be rushed. I will replace the best wedding company and pay a lot of money to give you a great wedding and make you the young lady of the Hogg family!"
Madge didn't care about these things at all. If she could, she would rather marry Charlie tomorrow, before things happened.
Madge rubbed her hands and said in a shy tone, "Uncle Hogg, I'm OK with that!"
Seeing this, Gilbert couldn't help but laugh.
The atmosphere in the study seemed to be quiet and peaceful. Charlie slowly raised his deep eyes, and there were no waves in his expression and voice. "Are you done talking?" "Mind your attitude!" Gilbert was immediately unhappy.
"Ha." Charlie sneered, and his dark eyes quickly narrowed. "What attitude should I have? I rejected the marriage four years ago, and four years later, do you think I'll say yes?"
"Charlie, what are you talking about?" Gilbert was stunned.
Charlie looked at his father's inquiring eyes and said, "Dad, you should know very well what I'm talking about."
"..." Gilbert's stern face cracked a little.
Charlie's calm voice continued as if it could pierce someone's heart. "Larry's biological mother, is she the one in the picture you showed me?"
Gilbert was shocked by Charlie's words.
Madge, who was also shocked as Gilbert was, looked at each other and both of them were in a tizzy.
Gilbert grasped the armrests on both sides, his eyes wide open, and his voice raised uncontrollably, "Charlie, have you...regained your memory?"
Charlie sneered again, showing that he did remember.
Gilbert was, after all, old enough to handle something like this. Even though his heart was in turmoil, he calmed down as quickly as he could. He stood up from the chair, walked around the desk, and walked to his son, and said, "I lied to you about Larry!"
"But I also have my reasons!" Gilbert sighed. It was rare that he wasn't angry, but said earnestly, "You were rashly on the airport highway, had an accident, and woke up with no memory of that woman. If you have forgotten, why should I bring it up again? And Charlie, I also don't want you to dwell on the pain of your previous relationship, and since that woman has left the country with another man and doesn't want the child, of course I will choose to hide it from you!"
Madge found the right time and echoed, "Charlie, Uncle Hogg is really doing this for you."
"Doing this for me." Charlie pulled his lips and thought about these words. Looking at his father standing in front of him, he slowly stood up from the armchair.
His deep eyes narrowed, and the coldness hidden in the bottom of his eyes burst out, "Well, this can be put aside for a while, then-"
"What about my amnesia?"
