Purchased A Mr. Right

"It's me." Felix put on a smile.

Wendy was confused and asked, "Why are you here..."

"There is a new batch of recruits to come at the end of this year. So the army sent me back to help with that." Felix explained with a smile, "I called you before and wanted to tell you about that, but you didn't answer. Later, your phone was turned off!"

"Really? I didn't answer it..." Wendy was stunned.

A loud noise came from the bedroom, and Emily rushed out, "Wendy, you're back!"

"I flew back last night and couldn't sleep because of jet lag. So I got up early and came to your home. Your friend opened the door for me and told me that you sent grandma back to the countryside and would be back in this morning, so I just waited here." Felix continued.

"Oh..." Wendy nodded and felt worn out. She took off her bag and said, "I'm going to wash up!"

She unscrewed the tap and let the water fill a half basin. Then, she buried her face into it for a while and felt fresher after that.

Emily followed her into the bathroom. She handed Wendy a towel and looked through the window. She asked with confusion, "Fley, why can't I see your man's white Land Rover?"

"Emily, he is not my man..." Wendy bit her lips. "Are you kidding me? Are you still shy?" Emily snickered.

Wendy pinched the towel with her fingers, and said in a low voice, "We ended..."

They didn't break up. Only the relationship between them ended

"Really?" Emily was shocked. She looked at Felix, who was sitting in the living room, and pointed at him, "It's not because you can't forget him..."

Wendy pursed her lips and shook her head in silence.

Wendy put down the towel and toothbrush, changed her clothes, and came out. Felix stood up from the sofa and said, "Let's go, Wennie. We can have breakfast together, and then I'll send you to work!" Wendy nodded dumbly and followed him out of the door.

They went to a breakfast shop nearby. Felix ordered a lot, but she only ate a little.

Felix was driving a jeep with a military license plate. Although it was in the morning rush hour, many cars took the initiative to give way to his car. Because they were afraid that they would get into trouble if they crashed into it. Thus, they were unimpeded all the way.

When he stopped at a red light, Felix smiled and looked at her, "Do you remember I told you last time that Daniel wanted to see you? The kindergarten in New York closed early, and he will return to China in about two weeks..."

Wendy lowered her face and fixed her eyes on her hands that were clasped on her knees.

"Wennie, are you listening to me?" Felix could not help raising his voice.

"Ah..." Wendy looked up in a daze and answered with confusion, "What? Can you say again?"

Felix was not unhappy at all. Fie patiently repeated, "I said that Daniel would return to China in two weeks. If you can go to pick him up with me, he must be very happy!" "Okay!" Wendy nodded.

She hadn't seen the little boy for more than a year, so she should go to pick him up.

The signal light changed to green, but Felix's eyes were still on her face. Fie asked with concern, "Wendy, do you feel uncomfortable?"

"No..." Wendy blinked her eyes and replied, "I felt tired on the train last night."

Felix nodded and did not ask anything more. Fie reminded her of avoiding to be too tired at work, having good rest, and drinking more water.

Wendy answered in a low voice, and then, she saw the office building where she worked.

Time flew. In the blink of an eye, a week had passed.

After ending the relationship with Charlie, Wendy seemed to be freer. She bought some food home after work every day and cooked with her best friend Emily. After dinner, she called grandma to ask about her recent situation. Most of the time, when these things were done, it was just dark outside.

Not long after the meeting ended in the afternoon, the supervisor came out of the office in a hurry, saying that there was a problem in the cooperation with the Hogg's Group. He asked Wendy to sort out the materials and go to the Hogg's Group.

Hogg's Group...

Wendy was in a dilemma. She bit her lips and said, "Supervisor, can I not go..."

"No, you must go!" The supervisor answered immediately in a bad tone, "The company is not a place for useless people!"

The attitude of the supervisor was quite tough, so Wendy had no choice but to go to the Hogg's Group with the documents in her arms.

They had made an appointment in advance, so they went directly to the meeting room on the top floor.

Charlie had already sat inside. He leaned against the back of the chair lazily, spinning a pen in his hand. The pen dropped on the paper, making the sound of pitter-patter.

His face was clearly defined. Even when he was working, he looked elegant.

The supervisor rushed in and apologized while rubbing his hands, "Mr. Hogg, I'm so sorry for keeping you waiting. There's a little traffic jam on the way!"

"It doesn't matter." Charlie changed his posture, put the pen on the table, and said calmly, "I arrived a few minutes in advance. I just finished a meeting here." Upon hearing this, the supervisor breathed a sigh of relief.

Wendy silently followed him. She pulled out a chair and sat down. She lowered her head and tried to be unobtrusive.

Soon they got to the point. After a while, she heard the supervisor said, "Wendy, give the updated version to Mr. Hogg!"

"Yes!" Wendy stood up.

She took out the files from the folder, took a deep breath, and walked toward Charlie.

"Mr. Hogg, this is the updated version..."

"Okay," Charlie responded calmly and did not even raise his head.

Wendy was standing, so from her side, she could see him clearly, including his slightly twitched lips, smooth chin, and protruding Adam's apple...

All of a sudden, she held her breath, and her eyes were fixed on his collar.

He was wearing the shirt she bought for him...

Suddenly, she felt warmth on her hand. She didn't know if Charlie was intentional or not. When he took over the document, he swept his finger over hers.

He often did similar things before. Wendy couldn't help biting her lips and looking at him.

Charlie raised his eyes and said indifferently, "What's wrong?"

"No, nothing!" Wendy shook her head.

When she returned to her seat, she subconsciously looked at him.

Charlie lowered his head and focused on the document with a serious look. There were no changes in his eyes. She clenched her fingers that had been swept by him just now. When Wendy got off work in the evening and arrived home, Emily told her that she did not come back to eat. So Wendy bought a box meal for supper.

When she opened the box, her phone suddenly rang.

When she saw Charlie Hogg on the screen, she held her breath.

She hesitated for a while and picked it up, "... Hello?"

"It's me." A quiet voice sounded on the line.

"I know..." The plastic package of the disposable chopsticks in Wendy's hand was cracking. She adjusted her breathing and asked, "Do, do you have anything to say?" "I'm hungry," Charlie suddenly said.

Wendy held her breath.

Charlie paused for a while and added, "I want to eat noodles."
