Purchased A Mr. Right -
Chapter 498
Wendy smiled and touched Larry's little head. "Since it's from Grandpa, then take it! Sweetie, did you say thank you?"
"Thank you, Grandpa!" Larry immediately turned his head and said obediently.
The smile on Kim's face was deeper, and even he looked much better.
After getting Wendy's permission, Larry received the red envelope and immediately ran upstairs. It seemed that he wanted to hide it somewhere.
Wendy and Kim both shook their heads and laughed. Kim could not hide the love for Larry, "He is really adorable. The outline of his face is very similar to that of Charlie, but he has your eyes. I didn't expect that I suddenly have a grandson!"
After Kim took two sips of his coffee, she asked, "Dad, you're here today..."
Kim should come not only to give Larry a red envelope, but there was also something else.
Wendy was right. After Kim put down the coffee, he said slowly, "Wendy, I'm here to tell you that I've got everything ready to put you on the family list! I know that it's a burden for you. Don't be too stressed. I just want you to return to your real family. If you don't get used to it, you don't have to change your name to Wendy Gray. Keep your current name!"
Kim had discussed the issue with her in advance. In fact, she did not really care about those things, but she did not want Kim to always feel that he owed her.
Seeing that Kim fully respected her, she said gratefully, "Dad, thank you!"
She had been called Wendy Lim for 28 years. If she changed her surname, she might not be used to it.
Kim smiled and waved his hand, and then added, "And then there is one more thing!"
"Huh?" Wendy was puzzled.
Kim seemed to be a little hesitant. After two seconds, he said, "Your grandfather went back to Ice City yesterday! He is getting old and has been recuperating abroad. When I was ill a few days ago, I didn't tell him about it for fear that he would worry about me! Now he knew about it and returned home because. And he also knew about you and wanted to see you!"
After hearing that, Wendy was a little stunned and asked,"... Grandpa?"
"Grandpa" was strange to her, because Johnny had lost his parents a long time ago. For her, she only had her mother's parents, and now her father's dad came out of nowhere, she really didn't know how to deal with him.
But since she had already admitted Kim as her father, the Gray family naturally would be her family.
"Yes!" Kim nodded. "On Saturday, the day after tomorrow, well have a home-cooked dinner together at the Gray family's old mansion! Your Grandpa wants to see you. I will send a car to pick you up that afternoon!"
What Kim said already indicated that she couldn't refuse.
When Charlie came back in the evening, Wendy told him about it. After hearing it, he said directly, "I'll go with you!"
"No." She shook her head, she knew that he would go somewhere else tomorrow morning. There was a project that he needed to follow up personally, and he would not be back until the evening of the day after tomorrow. The tickets had been booked, and she didn't want to disrupt his work schedule. "Your schedule has been arranged, and I can handle it by myself!"
"Are you sure?" Charlie frowned.
Wendy knew what he was worried about.
If she went to the family dinner, it meant that she had to face Linda and Madge. And it was not like the banquet held in the hotel last time. At the banquet, there were many guests coming and going, so she could avoid a lot of trouble. But in the old mansion of the Gray family, the people who attended were all from the Gray family, so she couldn't avoid them.
Although she knew it, she still nodded and said, "Yes!"
Charlie saw the determination in her eyes. Her eyes were shining under the light. It was confidence that came from her heart. He swallowed his words of disagreement and said, "Okay, I'll pick you up after the family dinner."
Wendy smiled and nodded.
As soon as she leaned into his arms, she was picked up by him and he strode up to the stairs. When she looked up into his deep eyes, she complained, "Hey, are you going to..."
"I'll be out of town tomorrow morning and back the day after tomorrow." Charlie took it for granted.
"..." Wendy was speechless.
Charlie lowered his eyebrows and kissed her on the corner of her mouth. He said in a soft voice, "Don't worry. I remember what the doctor said. I'll be careful!"
Wendy knew that she couldn't refuse at all, so she simply put her head on his shoulder and stopped talking.
On Saturday afternoon, Wendy took a car to the old mansion of the Gray family.
It looked almost the same as Hogg's Mansion. It was an old mansion but had probably been renovated in recent years. There was an old locust tree in the yard, with twisted roots and intertwined joints. Kim was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable and was standing at the entrance of the mansion waiting for her very early.
His wife, Linda, was standing beside him with a fan in her hand, frowning. She seemed to be worried that he would be tired because he had just recovered from a serious illness, and was trying to persuade him to go in. When she saw Wendy get out of the car, she turned around and left.
Wendy dressed casually.
She also saw Kim. When she was about to walk over, someone was faster. It was Madge and Tilly who were chatting in the yard. And Tilly was dragged here by Madge.
"Miss Lim!"
"Miss Gray..."
As before, they still call each other like this.
Although the relationship between them had changed, and Kim's blood flowed in both of their bodies, it was not easy for them to accept that they became sisters. They also had a very tacit agreement to deliberately avoid this point.
Madge dragged at her cousin, Tilly, showing her two dimples. "I already knew about what happened at Hogg's Group. Tilly has just returned from overseas. She's just a little girl and I hope you won't mind too much! She already knows she's wrong. Isn't that so, Tilly?"
"Oh." Tilly obviously didn't know Madge would say these, but she simply replied anyway.
"Tilly, mind your attitude, no matter what..." Madge paused before continuing, "She's also your sister, like me."
After hearing this, Tilly said directly on the spot with disdain, "What kind of sister is she!"
"Tilly!" Madge said with a frown.
Wendy had been watching in silence, letting them talk.
As her eyes swept across Madge's face, she felt that it was a little funny. It seemed that Madge had always been a good person!
Compared with Madge, Wendy didn't hate Tilly that much. At least Tilly would say whatever was in her mind, and she would just tell Wendy how much she hated Wendy. She was not a hypocrite, and wouldn't scare Wendy.
