Purchased A Mr. Right -
Chapter 490
Hearing some girl call Charlie like this, Wendy shivered in her heart.
She almost thought that it was Yolanda, but soon she realized that Yolanda was still locked up in prison, and it was impossible for Yolanda to appear here.
Wendy turned around and saw a girl in a small western- style dress. Different from the evening dresses on other girls, this girl was wearing a shortstyle fluffy skirt, with Punk makeup, and a high ponytail, which looked so cool.
In such a banquet filled with young girls, this girl looked unique.
Even if Wendy had a bad impression of this girl because of the way she called Charlie, Wendy had to take a good look at her.
Seeing Charlie frowning, Tilly was immediately unhappy. She knocked the glass in his hand with her red wine glass and said, "Charlie, you can't recognize me, can you? I'm Tilly!"
Charlie suddenly remembered and asked quietly, "You're back from the UK?"
"Yes!" Tilly showed a big smile, "I have got an MBA in Oxford. My parents want me to continue to study there, but I don't. I'm afraid I'll become a nerd! So, as soon as I get the certificate, I returned home immediately, just in time for the banquet!"
"Congratulations." Charlie said, pursing his lips.
"Thank you. I'm happier to hear it from you!" Tilly flicked the hem of her dress, looking a little shy and expecting something. "Charlie, we haven't seen each other for seven years, I've changed a lot, see?" But there was nothing in Charlie's eyes, and he just said casually, "Probably."
Charlie did answer Tilly but in a perfunctory way. She frowned slightly after heard that and said, "Well, you're upset me! I'll talk to my families first. Talk to you later!"
After that, Tilly left gracefully with the red wine glass in her hand.
Wendy finally had a chance to speak. She frowned and asked, "Charlie, who is she?"
"Madge's cousin," Charlie replied in a low voice.
"Oh." Wendy nodded.
Madge's cousin?
They didn't look very alike, and their personalities were also different. Wendy couldn't help looking at Tilly's back. Her instinct told her that Tilly had other feelings for Charlie.
The people who could attend the banquet were all from rich families, and there were also many business cooperations between some of them. So, it was inevitable that Charlie needed to socialize with some guests.
Wendy was afraid that she would disturb Charlie's business, so she asked him to do his own business first, and then she went to the long table to get something to eat.
The light yellow tablecloth was covered with dazzling Chinese and Western exquisite desserts, which made people's appetite go wild just by looking at them. Wendy took a shining white plate, picked up some along the way, took a glass of juice, and sat on the couch next to her.
Just as she was about to take a bite of the almond cake, a shadow descended from above her head.
Wendy looked up and saw Madge's cousin, Tilly again. At this time, the red wine in Tilly's hand was replaced with champagne, and Tilly looked at her from a high position, wanting to see through her from her face.
In fact, Tilly was just trying to find out what's so special about her that she could attract Charlie so much. But Tilly didn't find anything and didn't feel that way.
Wendy was just sitting there.
Just now, when Tilly talked to Charlie, Tilly completely ignored her, as if she didn't exist. Now, Tilly turned to come to her again, which was really funny.
Tilly touched Wendy's juice cup on the table and said, "Hi, My name is Tilly King!"
"Hi." Wendy nodded.
Tilly pursed her lips and asked, "What's your name?"
"Wendy Lim." Wendy still replied.
Tilly sat down on the couch next to Wendy and put the champagne on the table. Then she crossed her legs and sat up straight. "Well, Miss Lim, to be frank, I like Charlie!"
"I've liked him for a long time, but he's engaged to my cousin, Madge, and Madge and I grew up together, so I quit. But now I heard that you're better than my cousin, so I can't just sit back and wait. I have to fight for the happiness that I once gave up!"
Tilly's eyes were filled with mixed emotions when she said these words. Back then, not only Madge fell in love with Charlie at first sight at the party, but she had also been attracted by him. It was just that she was too young at that time and was still in high school.
After hearing this, Wendy almost dropped the fork in her hand on the ground.
Although she had already had a hint, she did not expect Tilly to be so direct.
"Oh, I see..." Wendy held the fork tightly, nodded, and put the almond cake in her mouth. The fragrance of it was filled all over her mouth immediately.
"Hey!" Tilly's eyes widened and her face turned black. "How could you still eat? Didn't you hear what I said just now? I said, I like Charlie!"
"I heard you." Wendy swallowed the food in her mouth.
Tilly was almost driven crazy by Wendy's easiness. "Am I not a threat to you at all?"
"It's your business that you like Charlie. It has nothing to do with us." Wendy took another sip of juice.
So far, her impression of Tilly in front of her was not so bad, probably because Tilly chose to tell her directly, instead of hiding the dirty thoughts like Madge.
"You? What makes you represent Charlie?" Tilly listened carefully and immediately sneered at Wendy.
"Tilly." Wendy raised the corners of her mouth, raised her chin, and gestured to somewhere. "Miss Gray, I mean your cousin, who is standing there, is excellent in all aspects. Moreover, she is tall and looks much beautiful than you, right?"
"I had to admit that!" Tilly said jealously.
Although she hated it most when her family compared her with Madge, she still had to admit that Madge's face was much prettier than hers. She was beautiful but not as beautiful as Madge.
Wendy blinked her eyes and spread her hands. "Charlie doesn't even look her in the eye, let alone you!"
Tilly suddenly stood up from the couch.
She pointed at Wendy for a long time but didn't know how to refute Wendy. She was choked by Wendy's words, and the blood rushed to her face. Finally, she picked up the champagne, turned around, and left in anger.
Wendy lowered her head and continued to eat the desserts on the plate.
At this time, Charlie sat down next to her after socializing. He also saw the figure who had just left.
"What's wrong with her?"
Wendy took a bite of the chocolate and said, "She came to me for trouble but got pissed off by me!"
