Purchased A Mr. Right
Chapter 440

The office door closed again, Charlie frowned and put the phone back to his ear.

His Adam's apple moved, and before he could say anything more, Wendy said on the other side of the line, "Well, hurry up and prepare for the meeting. Larry asked me to help him with the jigsaw!" "Okay." Charlie heard no difference in her voice and pulled his lips in response.

Ten minutes later, he appeared in the conference room.

All the members of the meeting had arrived. The secretary was carrying a hot kettle to refill water for each member, and the PowerPoint was also ready, everyone's waiting for the meeting to start. Madge was the only child in the Gray family, after she returned to the country four years ago, she had been in the company. However, she's not ambitious in business, but she's still in a relatively powerful position in the company, so it's normal for her to come to the meeting instead of Kim.

At this time she was sitting on the right-hand side of his position, it was difficult for him to not notice her.

Madge put on delicate makeup today. She had always put on light makeup and wanted to show more of her temperament. But these days she's not in a good mood, resulting in illness and her face was a bit pale, so she had a more delicate makeup to keep her best state to face him.

Just when she sat down, people around her frequently looked at her. Madge didn't show anything, but she felt very happy in her heart. No matter where she went, she would be the focus of attention. Only such a self was the best match for him!

From the moment Charlie entered the door, Madge's eyes lit up, "Charlie!"

Charlie looked at her and gave her a slight nod. Then he ordered, "Let's begin now!"

During the whole meeting, Madge kept staring at Charlie. Her eyes were full of complex emotions, but Charlie didn't seem to feel it. He stared at the big screen with his deep eyes.

Until the end of the meeting, Madge didn't receive any eye contact from him.

The blinds closed and everyone at the conference table gathered their things and stood up one by one.

At this moment, Madge did not have the heart to care too much, got up, and quickly chased after the tall figure, "Charlie, are you crazy?"

"Am I?"

Charlie stopped and asked.

Madge looked at him in disbelief. "Charlie, have you lost your head? Are you really going to quit? You've been in this position for so many years. Uncle Hogg is also planning to hand Hogg's Group over to you, but you don't want it? Do you know what this means?" Ewan, who had disappeared for four years, suddenly returned. Later, he also visited Madge at her house, but he did not mention this to her.

She did not know that he had made such a shocking decision until someone mentioned it in the meeting just now.

"Hum." Charlie replied simply.

When Madge saw this, she couldn't help but persuade in a soft voice, "Charlie, I know that you were just acting on impulse, I..."

"Mr. Hogg, Miss Lim is here. She's in your office!"

At this moment, Farr walked towards Charlie and interrupted Madge with a report.

Hearing this, Charlie pulled his lips and said, "Sunny, excuse me, I've got business to attend to!"

At the same time as his voice sounded, his long legs had already started to move. By the time Madge came to her senses, he was no longer in front of her.

Charlie was very surprised when he heard Farr report.

He put his hands in his pockets with a trace of doubt in his heart.

When he almost walked to the office, from a distance, he seemed to see a sneaky figure who was poking out her head through the crack of the door. He couldn't help narrowing his eyes and then raised his eyebrow high again.

When Wendy saw Charlie, she immediately turned around and ran back. Because she was too flustered, she slipped on the carpet and almost fell on the couch.

When she just adjusted her sitting position, the door of the office was pushed open. Charlie, dressed in a black suit, pushed the door in. He had changed his position to one hand in his pocket and the other hand closed the door. He looked at her with inquiring eyes.

Wendy licked her lips and explained, "Uh, I'm here to deliver you food. Didn't you say that the food in the cafeteria is not delicious last night..."

At the end of her words, she actually felt a little guilty.

After the phone call with Charlie, Wendy could not stay in the villa any longer, her head kept running out of images of him and Madge together. Although she was sure of his feelings for her, she still couldn't help thinking about it. Finally, she simply let Aunt Lee accompany Larry and changed her clothes to go out...

"Are you sure you're here to deliver food?" Charlie glanced at the lunch box.

"...Yes!" Wendy nodded with hesitation.

Charlie did not intend to easily let her go, leaned down and sat next to her, giving a quite deep look, "Aren't you here to spy on me?"

"..." Wendy blushed and muttered awkwardly, "Seriously, why do you have to say it out loud..."

Charlie's thin lips curled up.

Wendy blushed and lowered her face. She pushed the opened lunch box to him, but knocked her knees with too much force, and let out a hiss of pain. "What's wrong?" Charlie asked with a frown.

Wendy reached out and rubbed her knees. She swallowed her saliva and had to confess in embarrassment, "I walk too fast just now and knocked my knees..."

This time, Charlie's low chuckle spread through the office.

On the other side, all the people in the conference room left one after another, leaving only Madge still standing in the same place.

Although her expression didn't change much, in fact, her hands were clenched into fists under the hem of her skirt. She turned back and picked up her bag from the chair, straightened her long hair and showed a light smile with two dimples before walking out gracefully.

When she passed through the secretary office, some eyes were fixed on her.

"Isn't that Miss Gray?"

"That's right! However, she's no longer Mr. Hogg's fiancee. She's rather pitiful. You don't know that during the meeting just now, her eyes never left Mr. Hogg for even half a second. It's a pity that Mr. Hogg didn't even look at her!"

"That's right. There's only Miss Lim left in Mr. Hogg's heart. Did you forget the last time the two of them stayed in the office? When they came out, Miss Urn's face had turned red and her mouth had swollen... Also, when I heard Mr. Chiang say that Miss Lim had come, Mr. Hogg immediately left Miss Gray behind! Tsk tsk!" Madge still kept a smile on her face.

She heard every word of the gossip clearly, but she could not glare at them and scold them. She could only maintain her elegant temperament, which made the smile on her face deeper, pretending that she had heard nothing.

The female staff members were still whispering, but when they turned around, they found Farr standing behind them.

"Mr. Chiang!"

They immediately lowered their heads and were scared out of their wits. "I'm sorry, Mr. Chiang! We didn't mean it. Please don't tell Mr. Hogg. Please forgive us this time. I promise that we won't do it again!"
