Wendy also noticed it.
She pushed Charlie who was still very devoting, and both of them turned their heads to look at the door.
"What's the matter?" Charlie frowned.
The secretary's mouth was still wide open. "Mr. Hogg, I'm just here to remind you it's time to get off work..."
"I see. You can leave now!" Charlie said in a deep voice.
The secretary nodded hurriedly and shook her head again. Her voice was almost mixed with crying. "Mr. Hogg, I didn't see anything just now!"
After that, she turned around and ran.
However, during the process, she still looked back from time to time to steal a glance at Charlie. Her dream seemed to be shattered.
Wendy was very embarrassed. Thinking of the figure of the secretary who fled in a hurry, she felt that the image Charlie had built up when he first arrived at the company suddenly collapse...
"Go on!"
Charlie lifted her chin.
Wendy did not want to continue. She avoided his thin lips and said, "Hurry up and work..."
"There are just a few documents." Charlie reached out and clicked the table. "Are you tired?" Wendy saw that there was a wrinkle in the middle of his eyebrows.
Charlie leaned back on the chair, with his arms around her waist and his fingers touching her clothes. "I've just arrived here. There're a lot of things I need to get familiar, so I was really tired, but I don't think so now."
Wendy knew why.
She blushed and looked away uneasily.
When she entered, she didn't pay much attention to this office. Now when she looked at it carefully, she found that his office here was not very big, which was almost as big as department managers'. Wendy had been to the office of Hogg's Group.
Although it was not very glitzy, it had low-key luxury everywhere.
Thinking that he turned from a high-ranking boss of a group to a manager in a small branch office, Wendy felt guilty. Even his desk now was an ordinary wood table. The more she thought about it, the more heartbroken she felt.
Charlie had always been a very perspicacious person. He could look into her heart at once. He raised her eyebrows and said, "What's wrong? Are you sad after thinking that I'm not the president of Hogg's Group now?"
"Even if you are not the president of Hogg's Group, it doesn't mean anything!" A rare serious expression appeared on Wendy's small face. "Even if your father let you stay here forever, Charlie, I believe that with your ability, no matter where you are, you can have your own achievements!" A man like him was destined to be extraordinary.
Wendy firmly believed in this point all the time.
There were only the two of them in the office. Although her voice was not loud, it was very clear. The protection and love in her words could not be hidden. Charlie naturally heard it clearly. His thin
lips were slightly curved, and he still wanted to tease her. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
"What if my father doesn't even let me be the manager of the branch office one day?"
"It doesn't matter." Wendy shook her head.
It seemed that she was afraid that he didn't hear her, she reached out to hold him gently and said without hesitation, "Charlie, it doesn't matter! You can count on me!!"
Obviously, Charlie was stunned.
His Adam's apple moved slightly, and a low laugh came out. "Can I count on you?"
"Well, I may not make a lot of money..." Wendy was a little embarrassed, but her tone was still very serious. "But I will work hard and do some part-time jobs! Before I met you, I also did a part-time job in the pub. It's not difficult! We can go to the market to buy food, and I'll cook for you. I'll cook anything you want for you!"
Charlie remained silent.
Wendy was a little nervous. She bit her lip and said, "Charlie, don't you believe what I said?"
Charlie shook his head and stared at her with his deep eyes. Finally, he took her hand and spread it out, kissed her palm. "No one has ever said this to me," said Charlie in a low voice.
Wendy opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she was suddenly kissed.
It was much fiercer than the previous two kisses.
After the kiss, her tongue was numb.
Charlie got up, picked her up from his lap, closed the pen, and held her hand. "I'm going to do the rest tomorrow. Let's go home now!"
After entering the house, Wendy ran to the kitchen.
After washing her hands and putting on the apron she bought, she began to cook.
She bought a few fresh beef bones in the supermarket and used cold water to wash them. Then she continued to use medium fire to boil them. She added onion, ginger, and some milk. After cooking a few fry dishes, the bone marrow was boiled out, and the kitchen was full of fragrance.
Charlie also smelled the aroma of the soup and went into the kitchen. Seeing that she was stirring the soup with a spoon, he said, "It's really not easy to drink the beef bone soup you cooked."
Wendy was embarrassed and hurriedly pushed him. "Go wash your hands. It won't be long before dinner!"
"Okay." Charlie turned around and went out.
After placing all the dishes, the two sat down face to face. It seemed that they hadn't eaten this home meal for a long time.
Wendy kept picking up food for Charlie. "Charlie, eat more!"
She always felt that after breaking up, he seemed to have lost a lot of weight. Especially now when he arrived in Lim City, she always wanted to cook something nutritious for him. She had already begun to think about what to cook for him tomorrow.
"I'll wash the dishes." Charlie said after he finished eating.
Wendy did not refuse, but her eyes flashed. "Then I'm going to take a bath first..."
When the sound of washing bowls in the kitchen stopped, there were footsteps coming from behind.
Charlie looked back and saw Wendy who was going to take a bath just now appeared at the door. His deep eyes narrowed and the color of his eyes turned darker because of her clothes at this time. In the light, the leopard-print thin gauze pajama was almost transparent. He suddenly understood why she didn't wait for him to go to the supermarket together.
"Uh... have you finished?" She blushed.
Instead of answering, Charlie asked, "Why do you dress like this?"
Wendy bit her lip and shyly looked at him. "Don't you like this?"
"Hmm." Charlie mumbled.
His Adam's apple moved, but he didn't do anything. Instead, he walked past her, went to the bathroom, and also planned to take a bath.
As soon as he unbuttoned his shirt, he heard footsteps behind him. He looked at the mirror and asked deliberately, "What's wrong?"
"Let me put the water for you..." Wendy trembled her voice.
In the shower room, the water sprinkled had been in a comfortable temperature.
She walked out of the room with a red face and stood on her tiptoes in front of him. "Let me help you..."
Charlie did not refuse. He just looked at her with a faint smile on his face and let her do what she want.
The first button, the second...
All the buttons on his shirt were unbuttoned, and Wendy went up to kiss him.
Charlie's eyes were burning with excitement. He lowered his head and looked at Wendy, who was trying her best to seduce him, but his hands were still hanging on the side of his legs.
Seeing that he didn't respond at all, Wendy gradually gave up, because it was very different from what she had expected. She had wore this kind of clothes before and he almost tore it into pieces on the spot.
"Forget it if you don't want to..."
She said in frustration. Just as she turned around, she was suddenly picked up.
