Purchased A Mr. Right
Chapter 456

"His wife?" The old man repeated these two words in surprise. Then he sneered and muttered with a frown, "How come I didn't know that Mr. Hogg is married?"

Wendy felt embarrassed and explained awkwardly, "Well, I'm his fiancee..."

"Does it have anything to do with me?!" The elder's expression was cold.

Wendy bit her lip and said earnestly, "Mr. Wallace, please give me a moment. I have something very important to tell you!"

"I don't have time!" The old man said bluntly.

"I just need ten minutes, no, five minutes!" Wendy didn't expect him to be so difficult to get along with, and not only was he as stubborn and hard to talk as Donna said, but he was also a weird old man. She could only shamelessly chase him, "Mr. Wallace..."

The old man seemed to be very impatient with her pestering. He casually pointed and said, "Okay, you jump down from there first!"

"..." Wendy pursed her lips.

The direction he was pointing at was not some random places, but a high platform bungee jumping next to the golf course, visually at least fifty to sixty meters in height. She could vaguely see the person standing on it. Looking from a distance, that person was so small, as if he was walking into the clouds. Other places were fine...

Wendy looked over from a distance, and her palms were sweating slightly.

She said perplexedly, "I..."

"Come back to me after the jump!"

However, the old man did not give her any more chance to speak. He carried his crutch and left quickly.

The two fierce security guards were like two thick walls, not giving her any chance to get closer.

Wendy clenched her fists and looked at the bungee jumping platform.

Perhaps for ordinary people, they could go to try bungee jumping after more than a few psychological constructions, but for her, having a fear of heights, it's more difficult than climbing to the sky. But she had no choice, no matter what Mr. Wallace was thinking, she could only move forward...

Wendy gritted her teeth and was ready to risk everything as she walked in that direction.

There were not many people. After she finished filling in the form on the first floor, a staff member took her to the high platform.

Because she was too nervous, she accidentally bumped into someone.

"I'm sorry!"

Wendy hurriedly apologized and marched on in panic.

Just after two steps, she was chased by the person who she had just bumped into, blocking the road in front of her. It was also at this time that she saw the person's appearance clearly. It was a tall and straight man with handsome eyebrows. It seemed that he had just finished this extreme sport.

The man smiled and his Mandarin was a little stiff. His tongue was very flat and there was an obvious Cantonese tone. "Miss, you dropped your phone!"

Wendy was stunned for a while before realizing what had happened. She reached out her hand and took it in a hurry.

"Ah, thank you..." She thanked him in a hurry. Then she put the phone in her pocket, unzipped it, and caught up with the staff ahead.

Soon she came to the high platform. It's the kind of construction site steel elevator, hollow on all sides, and there was a loud "clang" sound when closing and ascending. During the process, she clutched both sides with her hands and did not dare to open her eyes.

Until the staff came forward to remind her, she realized that she had reached the top of the platform. The moment her legs stepped out, the violent wind blew, and she felt her legs tremble.

Wendy's head was in a daze, and she didn't know where to go.

She had already been equipped with safety measures, behind her feet with a heavy air cushion, and there was only one conviction left in her heart.

She must jump!

There was a quiet lake right below the platform, she seemed to be able to vaguely hear the sound of heavy objects smashed in the water. She stood at the edge, felt dizzy even looking down and white in her vision.

Wendy was in a trance, it felt like she saw her mother standing on the top floor and jumping down again.

But soon, that pair of deep eyes appeared in her mind, which was as deep as an ancient well.

She closed her eyes and jumped forward-

All she could hear was the sound of the wind, and her heart and liver trembled violently with fear, only to feel her body lightly and rapidly falling down.

Four years ago, Charlie once punished her with a parachute jump. At that time, she passed out directly. She never thought that after so many years, history would still be so strikingly similar that she fell into darkness again.

It was already night when she returned to the hotel.

Hong Kong is very busy at night, with neon lights and many compact stores displayed on the street. She had no time to enjoy the night, nor was she in the mood to hang around. She could only lie on the big bed and look at the ceiling absent-mindedly.

After a long while, she raised her hand and covered her eyes with annoyance.

Wendy didn't see Mr. Wallace again as she had hoped because after jumping from the bungee platform, she passed out directly and was taken to the hospital by the staff there.

At that time, the night had already fallen, and the distance Donna helped her to find out Mr. Wallace's schedule but it's limited, except for some official business, other private schedule was not disclosed. Therefore, she could only wait for tomorrow.

At the same time, in the living room of the Gray family in Ice City.

Although the news that Charlie had been taken away by the police had been deliberately suppressed, there was still a leak. Although the newspapers did not dare to make public reports, much financial news was reporting it ambiguously.

After Madge looked through it for a while, she put down the phone and couldn't help but turn back to her mother who was sitting on the couch eating bird's nest soup.

"Mom..."

Without waiting for her to continue, Linda interrupted, "Why are you in such a rush!"

"The bait has been set, when will the fish take the bait?" Madge looked anxious.

"I've already said it, why are you in such a hurry!" Linda glanced at Madge and placed the porcelain bowl on the table. She then continued slowly, "It's not the right time yet. He's only been in there for two days. If we don't let him suffer, how can he know how wrong he has been? You then give him a little help at that time, both him and the Hogg family..."

After hearing this, Madge nodded, "Yes, mom, I'll listen to you! I just don't want him to suffer!"

Linda comforted her daughter with a few more words. When she heard footsteps upstairs, she quickly reminded her daughter in a low voice, "Stop talking, your father is coming down!"

Kim was wearing his home clothes and slowly walked down the stairs. He had recovered a lot recently, but he still looked a little pale.

"Honey, why don't you rest in the room?" Linda walked up to him warmly.

"I've had enough rest, so just go downstairs!" Kim sat down on the couch with the help of his arms. He looked at the two of them and asked, "What were you two talking about just now? And you stopped talking as soon as you see me. What's so mysterious!"

"What else can we talk about!" Linda's expression did not change. She smiled and said, "It's Madge. She's thinking about your health. She said that she wants to get you some traditional Chinese medicine ther simmer it all by herself for your body conditioning!"

Madge also smiled on the side.

Kim nodded with relief after heard that and said, "Madge is grown up!"
