Purchased A Mr. Right
Chapter 459

"Wallace, Francis Wallace."

Francis smiled and helped her out of the predicament. Later, he noticed her surprised expression and continued to explain, "My parents' relationship was opposed by my father's family back then, and they had to secretly elope. Unfortunately, they had a car accident, and in that car accident, my father died to save my mother, and my mother passed away not long after I was born. So I was brought up by my grandfather and followed his surname!"

Wendy didn't expect there's such a complicated story about him, but she was not interested in the secrets of those wealthy families.

What's more, there was no deep friendship between them. She just said politely, "Mr. Wallace, thank you for sending me here!"

Francis, on the other hand, looked like he had something to say.

"Miss Lim, aren't you afraid?" It seemed that he had been holding it in for a long time and finally asked.

Wendy knew what he was referring to and shook her head. "I can't think that much."

When Mr. Wallace made things difficult for her and offered her to go to the races, she didn't even have the chance to hesitate. Because just like bungee jumping, she had to win. It didn't matter if she was afraid at that time, and she didn't even have time to think about whether it would be life-threatening.

It was just that although the process was terrible, there's little doubt that she'd still do that if she had to do it all over again.

After hearing her answer, Francis was stunned.

"I have never seen a girl like you... " Francis muttered in a daze. Seeing her frowning eyebrows, he continued to say, "I mean, you are different from the other girls I have seen! There are many girls around me I'm not afraid to tell you that I had only one relationship with a girl, and it happened when I was in college. She was with me because of the money. Later, she went to my grandfather and asked for a large sum of money, then went to America! I thought that there were no good girls in the world since then ... "

"Er..."

Wendy felt sorry for him, but she didn't know how to answer this, so she had to say awkwardly, "You will meet a good girl! Mr. Wallace, I have to go back to the hotel to pack my things. Bye!" "Goodbye!" Francis smiled.

It was only after she disappeared into the cab that he slowly withdrew his eyes.

After returning to the lounge, Chase had already got up and stood in front of the window with a crutch. The tea on the tea table was also cold. Francis walked toward him and said, "Grandpa, Miss Lim has already gone back!"

Chase acted as if he didn't hear what Francis said, lost in thought, gazing at the things in his hands. When Francis approached and was about to ask with concern, he saw that it was a handkerchief embroidered with a pair of mandarin ducks playing with water. He suddenly became silent.

It belonged to her grandmother...

Wendy returned to the hotel again, and she was even more downcast than yesterday.

Although she was packing things, she didn't bring much. She only brought a backpack, and packing things she carried with her would be finished in less than two minutes. She took out her phone and called Donna.

After the call was connected, Donna couldn't wait to ask, "Wendy, how is it?"

"I'm sorry, aunt ... "Wendy whispered.

"You don't have to say that, I know you must try your best!" Donna quickly comforted Wendy. Donna seemed to be worried about her and wanted to remind her, but suddenly said, "Wendy, I still have something to do here. That's it. We'll talk about it when you come back!"

Wendy agreed and hung up the phone.

Donna just came out from Hogg's Group when she received the call. She saw a luxury car parked outside the yard, and then the father and daughter of the Gray family walked in. She put the phone back into the bag and bumped into them.

Donna and Kim had known each other for a long time, and they also had a few dealings in business. Donna would call Kim Brother Lu when she met him. They then greeted each other. "Aunt!" Madge, who was holding Kim's arm, also called Donna in a sweet voice.

Donna frowned. Whether it was four years ago or four years later, she had stressed it many times, but Madge had not changed the way of calling her. Although Madge was smiling at her, it was useless for her. And she was focused on her nephew, so she didn't want to argue about it with Madge.

Donna waved her hand and said, "My brother is not in good health these two days. The doctor has just given him an infusion bottle, you'll have to wait for a while!"

After that, she left in a hurry in the direction of the BMW, not wanting to waste more time.

Kim and Madge then entered the villa. After the servant went upstairs to inform, not long after, Gilbert came straight down with a needle in the back of his hand. After all, they were not just some random guests Gilbert was afraid of neglecting them. It seemed that he was walking slowly, and Ewan, who was holding the infusion bottle next to him, supported him.

"Brother Hogg!"

"Uncle Hogg!"

Kim and his daughter both got up from the couch.

Gilbert smiled and nodded, motioning for them to sit down. "Brother Lu, Madge, you're here!"

"Brother Hogg, I know that Charlie's matter has worried you very much, but you must take care of yourself!" Kim sighed and couldn't help but say. Charlie's incident had been deliberately suppressed for fear that it would have a bigger impact, but Kim got the news even though.

Although Charlie was no longer his future son-in.law, Kim had always liked and appreciated this young man very much. What's more, now with the relationship of Wendy's mother, he was more concerned about Charlie. When he heard the news, he had already called Gilbert many times to pay attention. Today, his daughter asked to come to Hogg's Mansion to see Gilbert, so he nodded and came here with his daughter.

"Don't worry, Brother Lu, I will!" Gilbert said with a sigh.

"Charlie's case happened so suddenly, and it also involves companies in Hong Kong. I also inquired about it through connections. The case is very tricky! Although I also want to help, at the moment, there's nothing I can do!" Kim frowned and his expression was helpless.

"I know, Brother Lu!" Gilbert nodded his head repeatedly as he accepted Kim's kindness.

At this time, Kim had no choice but to say, "Well, God bless him. I believe he will be fine!"

"I hope so..." Gilbert smiled bitterly.

Madge took the initiative to walk to Gilbert's side and sat down. She said softly, "Uncle Hogg, you must take care of yourself. Our Gray family will definitely not stand idly by. As long as you have any needs, just call us! Furthermore, Father and I are the same. I believe that in the end, Charlie will be fine!"

The Hogg family and the Gray family had had many collaborative projects over the years that had involved many. Now that such a thing had happened to Charlie, Gilbert was very grateful that the Gray family didn't disassociate with the Hogg family. Besides, the friendship between him and Kim had been so many years.

However, Gilbert didn't expect that Madge, who was rejected by Charlie once again, could still be so tolerant and open-minded. He was inevitably touched and said, "I know that you are a good girl, thank you!" The father and daughter of the Gray family chatted with Gilbert for more than half an hour before asking to leave.

Ewan, who had been sitting in the corner and listening to them talk, suddenly stood up. "Uncle Gray, Madge, I'll send you back!"

"Good, thank you, Ewan!" Kim nodded.

Meanwhile, Wendy, who was in Hong Kong, took a car to the airport after she completed the check-out procedure.

Perhaps it was the weekend, the airport was crowded. Each security checkpoint was filled with long lines. She held her backpack and walked into the crowd, wet droplets of water haloing the back of her hands as she moved her feet.

After Wendy realized it, she quickly raised her hand and wiped away her tears.

From the moment when Donna hurriedly hung up the phone, she could feel that things didn't go well either in the Ice City ...

Closing her eyes, the only thing she could do now was to pray to God and hope Charlie's okay.

As the line moved forward, someone suddenly shouted behind her when it was about to turn to her.

"Miss Lim!"

Wendy turned around and asked in surprise, "Mr. Wallace?"

The person who called her was not someone else, it was Mr. Wallace's grandson, Francis, who had changed into a handsome suit. He looked more handsome and attracted the attention of many women. "Are you going somewhere, or are you here to pick someone up?" Wendy could not help but ask.

"Neither, I came here to look for you!" Francis shook his head and then slowly smiled. "My grandfather changed his mind."

Wendy froze for a second and then widened her eyes. She could not believe what she had just heard but could not hide her joy. "You mean..." She stuttered.
