"Yes." Charlie did not deny it.
She was right about that. Charlie's father did ask Charlie to go to the hospital immediately, and his father was very angry.
Wendy lowered her eyes for a long time and said, "...Charlie, you should go!"
"I won't go." Charlie frowned.
"But your dad asked you to go, and Madge should also want to see you..." Wendy's voice was low and he continued, "Besides, you can go back to Hogg's Group this time, she helped you..."
Charlie reached out and lifted her chin. "You're jealous, aren't you?"
"I'm not jealous..." Wendy had no choice but to look away, and her answer was a little contrary to her heart.
"You are lying!" Charlie snorted and obviously didn't believe it. He said like yesterday, "Unless we go together."
"..." Wendy frowned.
"If you don't go, I won't go either!" Charlie said directly.
Seeing that he wasn't joking, Wendy pursed her lips and said, "Well, then I'll go with you..."
Wendy went into the kitchen and quickly made two bowls of noodles in soup. After they finished eating, they changed and went out.
While walking downstairs, Wendy kept her eyes downcast the whole time, and his eyelashes curved into two shadows under her eyelids, as if she had something on her mind.
When she opened the car door, an arm blocked her.
Wendy looked up dazedly and saw that pair of deep eyes staring at her.
"...Uh?"
Charlie frowned and asked, "What's on your mind?"
"Nothing..." Wendy lowered her eyes again and shook her head.
Charlie didn't move and still maintained that posture.
Wendy had no choice but to raise her head and said hesitantly, "Charlie, did I... destroy her happiness?"
In a relationship, it's all about first come, first served. Before she knew Charlie, he had already had an engagement with his fiancee. That's an undeniable fact. Whether Charlie has feelings for his fiancee or not, it seemed that she was the one who came later...
What Charlie and his fiancee talked about in the cafe yesterday, she heard all about it. That would be a disservice to his fiancee. It's because of him that his fiancee acted so drastically.
Wendy's hands were hanging on both sides, and she clenched them bit by bit.
Charlie frowned and did not answer her. Instead, he took a step forward and leaned over to kiss her lips. She was shocked and did not expect him to act like that.
She reached out and gave him a push, but failed. Instead, he kissed her even deeper.
Charlie didn't leave until he had pried open her teeth and kissed her so delicately that she was almost paralyzed in his arms. He touched her mouth and said, "Do you still think so?"
"Not anymore..." Wendy shook her head with a blurred look in her eyes.
Charlie nodded with satisfaction. He stuffed her in the car and put her seat belt on.
Wendy watched his tall figure round the front of the car, and touched her swollen lips that he just kissed.
How annoying! Flirting her like that...
The white Land Rover was driving on the elevated bridge. It's a Sunday, so there's no traffic. Soon after they got off the bridge, they went off the bridge and soon arrived at an expensive private hospital.
They drove straight into the hospital building from the front door. There was a free parking space, and Charlie parked the Land Rover steadily.
The handbrake was pulled up and the Land Rover was off.
Wendy turned her head and looked over. "Charlie, don't keep staring at me..."
Charlie raised his eyebrows slightly.
"I'm not jealous." Wendy looked into his deep eyes and spoke her heart's true feelings, "I think you should come to see her. Whether you admit it or not, you had something to do with her suicide."
Charlie was silent for two seconds and suddenly asked, "Wendy, will you give up your life for a man?"
Wendy was stunned.
"I won't..." She shook her head.
Although at this time, an affirmative answer would be more touching, because that's how it played out in TV shows and romance novels.
But she chose to tell him honestly.
Wendy looked ahead and said softly, "Before my mother died, she told me that life is very precious and I should cherish it for the rest of my life. Therefore, I will never commit suicide for anyone!"
She raised her head slightly and looked at the roof beside her, as if she could see what her mother looked like while standing there.
However, although she said so, her mother still gave up her life for a man.
Maybe it's because her mother didn't do it that she warned Wendy like that.
Charlie's Adam's apple bobbed slightly.
His eyes were a little deep. He didn't expect that she would give him such an answer. But on second thought, she should be like this. There had been a lot of messes in her life, she was seriously injured by Johnny, the burden of life was so heavy, but she's still very tenacious.
Not including the time she cut her wrists, of course. Back then Charlie would act cold because he saw through the fact that it was her little trick.
In front of them, there were people entering the building, carrying flower baskets and fruit baskets in their hands.
"Ah, I don't think it's a good idea to see a patient empty-handed." When Wendy saw it, she said with regret.
On the way there, she didn't think of this.
She thought for a moment, pointing to the back. "Charlie, I just saw a flower shop at the front door. Go buy some flowers. Madge would feel better if she sees the flowers, and it helps her recover!"
"No!" Charlie refused.
"..." Wendy frowned.
Charlie's lips twitched again. "I only buy flowers for two women."
Two women?
Wendy looked at him in a daze.
"One is you." Charlie said.
Upon hearing his words, Wendy's face turned red. She then thought of the two bouquets of passionate red roses he sent to her and the envious eyes of her colleagues in the office, which made her overwhelmed, but happy and sweet.
She could not help but ask,"... who's the other one?"
"My mother." Charlie paused for a moment and said.
Wendy's heart skipped a beat.
Seeing the way his eyes darken without leaving a trace, she was very distressed, but at the same time, she was very excited.
Because he put her in a position that was as valued as his mother.
Wendy stretched out her hand to hold his. "Charlie, can you take me to meet your mother sometime?"
"OK." Charlie nodded.
He pulled out the car keys, unfastened the seat belt, and pushed the door open.
But when he turned around and found that the person inside did not move and was still sitting in the passenger seat, he couldn't help but round the front of the car.
Wendy also pushed the door open, but she did not get out of the car. Instead, she looked up at him and smiled slightly. "Charlie, go and see her! I won't go. I'll wait for you here..." Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
In fact, she didn't intend to follow him.
Charlie said that if she didn't go, then he wouldn't go, so she agreed to come with him. She's not trying to be a saint, but to be honest, if she were Madge, she would be irritated. Besides, she was afraid that Charlie's father would be there.
If Charlie's father saw Charlie bring her to visit Madge, he would be very angry and blame Charlie.
She didn't want to make things difficult for Charlie, and she didn't want to make trouble for him as well.
