Purchased A Mr. Right
Chapter 338

Wendy was shocked. "What did you say?"

"I'm really sorry!" The secretary nodded apologetically.

"I have already made an appointment with Director Huang last week to interview him today, haven't I?"

Wendy frowned and stood up from the sofa with a confused look on her face. "How could it be alright? Why is it suddenly cancelled..."

"Miss Lim, Director Huang asked me to apologize to you!" The secretary stood in a standard position and clasped her hands in front of her. "Director Huang had an urgent matter at the moment, and needs to fly to Australia!"

"But when I came up just now, he was still talking business in his office, wasn't he?" Wendy expressed her confusion.

Coming out of the elevator, she was led into the reception room by the secretary. When she passed by, she clearly saw an assistant carry tea in, and it was two cups. It was obvious that Director Huang was meeting with a guest.

"Yes!" The secretary nodded and looked at her watch helplessly. "But now, he should be on the way to the airport. It happened so suddenly, so we really can't accept your interview today! I am afraid that we can only wait until he finishes his business! Director Huang said that he will contact you immediately when he comes back!" "When will Director Huang come back?" Wendy asked.

"I'm not sure about that!" The secretary shrugged her shoulders, willing to help but unable to do so.

"..." Wendy bit her lip.

"Miss Lim, you can continue to rest here. If you need anything, call me at any time!" After the secretary finished, she nodded and left with a smile.

Since it was already like this, what could she do...

Obviously, she should go now. She had to close her laptop and start packing her things.

She walked into the elevator and leaned against the elevator wall.

Wendy was disappointed. She did not expect the last interview would ramble. She had no choice but to call the editor-in-chief in Canada, to explain the situation here. In that case, the return date will be postponed.

At the thought of something else, she gave Ryan a call.

Ryan was visiting his family in Ice city this time, and had agreed to go back to Canada with her, and the dates had almost all been set, so she needed to inform him quickly.

"Ryan, have you booked the flight?"

Ryan replied on the phone, "Not yet, I'm going to book a flight tonight. Why?"

"Then don't book your flight yet." Wendy sighed and helplessly touched her forehead. "I'm afraid there are some changes on my end..." After the call, she came out of the elevator. As soon as she stepped out, the elevator door opposite her slowly opened, and a tall figure in a black suit came out.

That pair of deep eyes swept over, and his thin lips were pulled. "What a coincidence!"

"Yeah..." It was hard for Wendy to hide her surprise.

She didn't expect to meet Charlie here. There were many companies in this office building. It seemed that he's here for official business, but she didn't see Farr. Because the two elevators were opposite, the two of them just walked side by side to the outside of the hall.

Charlie glanced at the laptop in her hand and asked casually, "You're here for an interview?"

"Yes." Wendy nodded.

"Is it over?" Charlie raised his eyebrows.

"No." Wendy shook her head and shrugged helplessly. "There was a little accident..."

"Oh." Charlie replied indifferently.

Seeing that he didn't have the intention to ask more, Wendy didn't say more either. She just walked out of the office building in silence all the way.

After walking out of the revolving door, Charlie took out the car key and looked at her again. "Where are you going? I'll drop you off on my way back to the office."

"No, I'll just get a cab!" Wendy shook her head and refused. "It's not easy to get a cab here," Charlie said.

Wendy frowned and looked at an empty car that had just passed by the road.

Before she could shake her head again, her arm was dragged by him.

The Land Rover stopped a few steps in front of the office building. The passenger door opened and she was shoved inside without being told. The engine of the car was started then and the car quickly entered the traffic.

Along the way, they were silent in the car.

There was no radio, only the occasional beeps of cars coming in.

After passing by a red light, Wendy pointed at a place and said, "Stop at the hot pot restaurant in the front please..."

Hearing this, Charlie turned to the right and the Land Rover steadily stopped at the door of the restaurant.

Through the front windshield, he also looked at the restaurant where he stopped the car. When he saw Ryan sitting in front of the French window, he immediately narrowed his eyes.

"You ask me to send you to have dinner with another man?" Charlie glared at her gloomily.

Wendy said innocently, "You're the one who insisted on giving me a ride..."

After she told Ryan on the phone about the change in the return trip, Ryan happened to want to ask her to have dinner with him, so they decided to discuss it when they met. Charlie's face darkened. "Thank you for sending me here." Wendy unbuckled her seat belt and opened the door with her laptop. "I'm getting off, bye."

After entering the restaurant, Ryan waited there with a warm smile on his face.

Wendy hurried over quickly and sat opposite him. "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

"No, I've just arrived!" Ryan explained with a smile. "It's hot now, although it's not the best time to eat hot pot, the main pot of this hot pot restaurant is fresh chicken soup with Astragalus membranaceus. It's very nutritious, and the air conditioning is also on full blast. I've read the comments online, it's quite popular!"

"Well, you've always been thoughtful!" Wendy nodded with a smile.

"Drink some water. I asked warm water from the waiter. It's not good for girls to drink ice-cold water!" Ryan said as he added water into the glass cup.

Wendy expressed her gratitude and accepted the cup. Just as she was about to take a sip, someone suddenly sat down beside her.

Wendy looked over in amazement and saw that the outline of his firm features, which had been separated only two or three minutes ago, actually leaped into her pupils again.

Charlie raised his hand and called the waiter over. "Add another set of tableware please."

"..." Wendy swallowed and asked, "Charlie, aren't you going back to the company? Why..." "I suddenly feel hungry," Charlie said as he twitched his lips. He then looked at Ryan and said, "Mr. Ye, you don't mind me joining you, do you?"

"Of course not! It's better to have more people sitting around the hot pot table!" Although Ryan had just been surprised for a short period of time, he quickly calmed down and recovered his smile. His voice was gentle as he said, "Furthermore, last time Mr. Hogg took us to the fishing park, I always wanted to find a chance to thank you. This meal happened to be a treat for you, Mr. Hogg."

After that, Ryan also raised his hand and called the waiter over.

After handing over the iPad for ordering food, Ryan gently said, "Mr. Hogg, if there's anything you want to eat, feel free to order! Because I didn't know that you would come over, The dishes I ordered are based on my and Wendy's tastes, so I don't know what you like to eat, or what you have to avoid!"

After Charlie took the iPad, he didn't look through it. Instead, he directly threw it to the side. "I'm OK with anything on the menu!"

He leaned back on the sofa and twitched his thin lips. "As for what I don't eat, she knows better."
