Purchased A Mr. Right -
Chapter 465
When the door of the office closed again, Charlie walked back to the floor-to-ceiling window. When he put the phone beside his ear and dialed the number, there was finally warmth in his indifferent eyes. "Where are you now?"
On the other side, Wendy said in a hurry, "Charlie, I didn't go to Hogg's Group, I'm on my way to Hogg's Mansion!"
"Hogg's Mansion? Why are going there?" Charlie frowned.
Wendy didn't hide anything and answered him directly. She said in a panic that couldn't be concealed, "Your dad just called me and said that if I didn't go to Hogg's Mansion, I would never see Larry again!"
When she came out of the villa, the call she received was from Gilbert.
Wendy didn't want to have any private meeting with Gilbert in her heart, so she immediately said that if there was anything Gilbert wanted to talk to her, he could talk on the phone. But Gilbert threatened him by saying so.
How could she keep calm? Larry was her life. She was afraid that the nightmare that happened four years ago would happen again, so she immediately asked Uncle Lee to drive her to Hogg's Mansion. Charlie lowered his voice after heard that and said, "Wendy, don't worry, I'll drive over now!"
He hung up the phone, grabbed the suit jacket and car keys, quickly pushed open the office door, and went straight to the elevator.
He crazily stepped on the accelerator, although it was already rush hour in the evening, Charlie still rushed out from the congested road. With the sharp braking sound, he almost stuffed the head of the car into the living room of Hogg's Mansion.
Since he drove fast, he arrived here right after Wendy, and Uncle Lee was standing beside the black Mercedes.
After he entered the door, in addition to the servants, Ella also came up to greet him. She smiled and said, "Charlie is here!"
Charlie's heart was burning with anxiety. He just nodded his head perfunctorily and walked quickly into the living room.
On the couch inside, Wendy was holding Larry in her arms and sitting on it. Opposite Wendy, Gilbert was sitting there with a serious face. There was tea on the tea table, but no one drank it. The atmosphere seemed a bit strange.
When Wendy saw Charlie, she looked up and whispered, "Charlie...
"1
"Hum." Charlie's lips twitched.
Seeing that she looked fine, he could not help but let out a sigh of relief.
However, he also raised his eyebrows. He strode over to stand in front of Wendy to protect her. He looked straight at his father and said in a cold voice, "Dad, what do you want? You didn't feel ashamed at all about what happened four years ago. How can you still threaten her with child?"
"If I don't say that, will she come?" Gilbert snorted and didn't care his son's burning eyes. Instead, he continued to say, 11 The kitchen is still preparing. We can have dinner in ten minutes!" Charlie and Wendy were both surprised by Gilbert's words.
From the moment Wendy entered the room, she was brought to the living room by a servant and sat down. After that, the servant brought her tea. Every cell in her body was in a defensive state, but Gilbert had never spoken. He was like an old monk in meditation, which made her confused about what was in his mind.
In fact, what she didn't know was that Gilbert was also looking at.
Although his sister Donna would not lie to him, he really couldn't imagine this girl in front of him, who looked quiet and weak, could successfully persuade that stubborn old man in Hong Kong in the end. Maybe she was just lucky!
However, that old man had been involved in the underworld for a long time in his early years, he must have a strange temper. Wasn't she afraid?
Gilbert just thought about these in his heart. Of course, he wouldn't ask.
Charlie's eyes were cold. "What on earth do you want to do?"
"You don't understand? I asked you to have dinner with me. After you left the police station, did you call home?" Gilbert said in a loud voice with his eyes wide open. Then he paused and forced himself to speak again, but he didn't mean to ridicule them. "Isn't it all thanks to her this time? Then this meal is a thank you to her!"
"Seriously?" Charlie sneered and said, "Well, is it a meal or a trap?"
"You..." Gilbert raised his eyebrows in anger.
Not only Charlie said that, but Wendy also subconsciously thought so.
From her position, the father and son looked at each other with anger in their eyes. They looked exactly the same ...
Charlie didn't waste any more time with his father. He turned around and picked up his son with one arm, then took her hand and walked out. "Wendy, let's go home!"
Larry timidly waved his hand and said, "Grandpa, goodbye."
Gilbert seemed to be angry enough, the face was blue, and the chest was heaving up and down. However, Larry said goodbye to him, which made him barely suppress his anger. Otherwise, he would stretch out his hand to grab the teacup and smash it.
Charlie held Wendy's hand and walked quickly to the entrance.
Wendy also wanted to leave Hogg's Mansion as soon as possible. Every time she came here, she was nervous and reluctant. When she changed her shoes and was ready to leave the villa, Gilbert seemed to catch up with them and stood far away. "I'll pretend that I've never heard anything about settling down outside the country. You'll continue to be the president in the Hogg's Group!"
Gilbert, with his hands clasped behind his back, still looked a little angry on his serious face at this time, but his tone was not so rude.
Charlie sneered coldly. It was obvious that he didn't care, and he didn't stop.
Behind them, there was another voice. "I won't force you to marry Madge anymore."
Wendy was stunned, she suspected that she had heard it wrong. When she turned around, she saw that Gilbert had already turned around, leaving a stubborn back view.
After the white Land Rover and black Mercedes disappeared from Hogg's Mansion, a servant walked out of the kitchen and reported respectfully, "Master, madam, dinner is ready!" Gilbert responded and walked into the dining room.
In the end, only two people ate the dishes on the big table.
Every time Ella ate a mouthful of rice, she couldn't help but glance at her husband. She observed his expression and asked tentatively, "Master, about what you said when they left, did you change your mind? Did you agree with Charlie and Miss Lim?"
"When did you hear me say yes?" Gilbert shouted angrily.
Ella frowned, but she wasn't discouraged. She asked curiously, "Master, then you offered to let Charlie do not leave the country, to remain in Hogg's Group to be the president, is it not already a yes?" Gilbert's face froze, as if he had been exposed. He said angrily, "No one will take you as mute if you don't speak!"
Seeing this, Ella quickly shut up and continued to eat, but she still couldn't help muttering, "But I didn't say anything wrong. It's all true ...
"1
"Do you want to eat or not?!" Gilbert yelled out loud.
Ella didn't dare to say anything this time, just focusing on her meal.
Gilbert's face was black and stiff. He threw his chopsticks in anger, got up, and walked out of the dining room.
He might as well not have the meal, because he had enough anger!
