Wendy followed Ewan to the restaurant where they had gone for the first time.

Looking at the menu, she still felt sorry for her packed lunch.

After the waiter left, Wendy asked him, "When did you come back?"

"Yesterday evening!" Ewan leaned back and said languidly, "By the way, do you quit from the bar?"

"Yes, I haven't worked there." Wendy nodded.

Ewan nodded after hearing that, "Various kinds of people were mixed together there. It's good for you to leave! I went there last night and asked the manager. He told me that you had quitted for a long time. And you didn't pick up when I called you. So, I went to your company today to replace you directly!"

Someone indeed had called her last night...

However, at that time, she was being pressed on the bed by Charlie.

For several times, she reached out one hand to touch her mobile phone, but her hand was pulled back by him, and then she was treated more violently...

Wendy's face was burning.

When she was thinking about Charlie, her phone rang.

"Where are you?" Wendy hesitated for a while and answered, "Er, I'm having lunch..."

"Outside?" Charlie was very sensitive.

"Yes," she replied.

"With whom?"

"A friend..."

As expected, he continued to ask, "A man?"

Wendy glanced at Ewan, who was sitting lazily opposite her.

She thought of Charlie's arrogance. He would be unhappy even she glanced at his friend in the hospital. She suddenly dared not to admit and covered the mouthpiece of her telephone with one hand, "No..." Charlie was silent on the phone.

When Wendy thought that there was no signal, she suddenly heard his worlds, "Bring some food to my home tonight!"

"Okay, I got it." She answered in a hurry.

After Wendy hung up, she found that her palms were sweating.

"All done?" After she put down the phone, Ewan handed over a pair of chopsticks, "Let's start, the dishes were ready!"

"Okay." Wendy nodded.

When they were about to finish eating, Ewan looked at her and said, "Well, there is something..."

"What?" Wendy had a bad feeling.

"When I arrived in New York." Ewan rubbed his hands. He looked at her expression and said in a tentative tone, "I had drunk with Felix. I was a little drunk at that time, and then I told him that I met you..." "..." Wendy held her breath.

"And, and..." Ewan coughed a few times.

"And what?" Wendy clenched her fists.

Ewan lowered his head and continued, "I've given him your number! I guess he'll contact you in the coming days."

He...

There was a mess in her mind when she recalled the man Felix.

Wendy lowered her eyes, and her sights were as erratic.

Ewan stood up and came to her. He had broken his promise, so he felt guilty and patted her softly, "Wendy, you're going to be late. Let's go, I'll send you!"

"Well..." Wendy nodded.

Since this was the case, there was nothing she could do. She took a deep breath and stood up.

Before she completely digested the fact, her heart trembled again. A waiter sent the bill to them and said, "Mr. Shaw, Mr. Hogg has paid the bill for you! He wishes you have a good appetite!"

After work in the evening, Wendy didn't have time to go to the hospital. She went straight to the food market to buy some vegetables and headed to the upscale residential quarter. When she opened the door, she saw a pair of men's leather shoes placed at the door.

Even if he wore them for a whole day, they were still spotless.

That was the impression that Charlie gave to other people, cold, indifferent, meticulous and delicate.

Wendy looked at her reflection on the leather shoes. She swallowed and walked into the house with the foods in her hand.

Charlie didn't turn on the TV. He sat on the sofa with his long legs crossed. There was a cigarette between his fingers, but he didn't smoke. He took turns holding cigarettes in his left and right hand. His face was calm, which showed nothing of his emotions.

The plastic bag in Wendy's hand rustled when she was walking. She said in a weak voice, "I'm going to cook now..."

"OK." Charlie did not look at her.

Wendy Lim looked steadily forward and went into the kitchen.

When She washed some vegetables, took out the chopping board, and was about to cut them up, she felt hot breathing was blown to the back of her neck, then, the knife in her hand almost fell off.

"Don't..."

Wendy wanted to avoid him, but Charlie's thin lips followed closely.

He didn't kiss or bite her. His lips were moving on her neck as if he was smelling.

When his lips moved away from her neck, he didn't say a word, which made Wendy even more nervous. And she was gooseflesh all over.

Charlie stood behind her like a mountain and asked blandly, "How's your lunch?"

." Wendy licked her lips.

"Did you lose your voice?" Charlie suddenly stretched out his hand to her.

"I..." Wendy was pulled over by him, and she was so scared that she hurriedly put the knife aside.

When she raised her eyes, she met his sharp eyes. She said warily, "I don't intend to tell a lie. I'm afraid that you'll be unhappy if I told you the truth..."

"If you know I will be unhappy, why do you still have with him?" Charlie sneered.

"Ewan is different..." Wendy frowned.

Wendy said 'Ewan is different' in a soft voice. Charlie's black eyes suddenly narrowed after hearing her words.

Charlie was furious. He pinched her chin and said, "Wendy, do you know your duty well? Are you really thirsty for men? You look naive, but in fact, you're lascivious. Do you think you can be two-timing me?" When he was unhappy, his words were always so unpleasant.

Wendy clenched her fingers, gritting her teeth, and explained, "Whether you believe it or not, there is nothing between Ewan and me!"

"Once again?" "I can repeat it ten times. There is nothing between Ewan and me!"

Charlie narrowed his deep eyes and stared at her as if he was thinking if her words were true.

Wendy didn't tell a lie, so he was not scared. She just let him stare at her with the inspection.

Until he took out a cigarette and the gloom in his eyes disappeared, she took a deep breath and continued, "Mr. Hogg, I've always remembered my duty. I'll come to you whenever you asked. My body belongs to you and I won't have any relationship with other men. Ewan is only an old friend of mine, that's all!"

Charlie blew out some smoke and remained silent.

No one knew what he was thinking. He suddenly said, "Promise to me!"

11

Promise to you?" Wendy was confused.

"Promise that you will never fall in love with Ewan Shaw!"

He still remembered that...

Being staring by him, Wendy quickly raised her hand and said, "I promise!"

"I will never fall in love with Ewan Shaw!"

"Continue."

It seemed that Charlie was very satisfied, and he slowed down the speed of smoking.

Wendy was angry but didn't dare to say anything, so she had to continue, "Even if all the men in the world were dead, I won't like him..."
