Purchased A Mr. Right -
Chapter 587
At the command of Master Gray, those servants who threaded their ways through the villa changed into red clothes, and the villa had a festive holiday atmosphere now.
Since the stylist came here early in the morning, she had been circling around Wendy to dress her up. Everything went on in good order without confusion. As she finished wearing her wedding dress and all was ready, a friend came from afar to join her wedding.
"Emily!"
Since the hemline of the Wendy was too large, she could not move freely while sitting on the bed and could only happily stretch out her hands to greet her.
Emily was in a neat white suit with widelegged pants, and her hair tied back was much longer than before. She was darker than in the facetime video call but looked very healthy. Emily grinned, revealing her pretty straight teeth, and said, "Wendy, congratulations!"
"Thank you!" Wendy was very excited. "I guessed that you could not come back in time!"
"Of course not!" Emily smiled more brilliantly. She said, amusingly and seriously, "Your wedding is also a big event in my life, so I had to arrive here in time even if I had no other choices but to walk! My daytime flight has been canceled, so I could only take the flight at night. It's so good that I managed to arrive in time to attend your wedding!"
Emily said while Wendy listened, and they held each other's hands tight. As they had been best friends for so many years, they had a deep affection for each other.
As soon as Emily entered the door, Wendy noticed that Simon, who looked travel-stained, came in after her. Then she greeted him, "Dr. Chin!"
Seeing them appear together, Wendy felt surprised. However, on second thought, she thought it was reasonable because they were together in S Country when she invited each of them to her wedding. Wendy could not help but look at Emily, her best friend who kept her head down and was twiddling those little diamonds on her wedding dress.
Like Emily, Simon's skin also seemed to have been tanned a lot, but the greater change was that he was more silent than before. In previous, when he was not in the hospital and not in his doctor's coat, his amorous eyes always looked cynical. However, now, his eyes looked cold and indifferent.
"Congratulations, Miss Lim!" Simon smiled at her, his glance quickly sweeping across Emily as if inadvertently. Then he looked at his watch and said, "You guys can go on preparing for the wedding. I'll go to see Charlie!"
Wendy nodded. When Simon's tall figure disappeared at the door of the room, she could not help asking, "Emily, are you with Dr. Chin now?"
Emily remained calm and smiled, faintly.
When Wendy chatted with Tilly yesterday, she had mentioned Emily, her best friend for many years, to her. Since both Tilly and Emily were outgoing and one of Wendy's friends, they felt like old friends at first sight. Now, they leaned close to each other and began to discuss how to make it more difficult for Charlie to get to her, according to the wedding custom.
Wendy, looking at them discussing, helplessly shook her head, but in her heart, she secretly expected him to pick her up as soon as possible.
Tilly held her chin and racked her wits about how to deal with Charlie later on. After a while, she smacked her lips and asked Emily next to her, "Emily, you had a wedding when you married Dr. Chin. Do you remember any good tricks to stop the bridegroom from getting closer to the bride at their wedding? Let's talk about them and see which one can be used at Wendy's wedding!"
After Wendy heard it, she could not help joining in the fun. "Right, Emily, you secretly married Dr. Chin. Can you tell us what your wedding was like?"
Emily, who was opening the wedding candies, suddenly froze there, her eyes going blank.
"Emily, say it! Say it!" Tilly could not wait any longer and urged her.
Emily shook her head and said in a low voice, "There's no wedding."
"Emily..." Wendy was stunned.
Emily curled up her mouth corners and forced a smile, pretending that it was nothing. Then, she said, "Hey, that is all in the past. Today is your wedding day, so don't always talk about mine! Let's think about how to hold the door to stop Charlie from entering!"
Tilly obviously regretted mentioning this. She quickly got up and echoed, "Yes, yes. I'll go out to check and find out where they are!"
About ten minutes later, she heard the roaring sounds of many cars' engines.
Wendy leaned over and looked out of the window. In the distance, she saw a row of luxury cars park together at the gate of the yard. There were flying ribbons and balloons on both sides of their rearview mirrors. The leading car was Charlie's white Land Rover, which had been used to drive her for many years.
The door was opened and Charlie, clad in a delicate black suit, came out, radiating charm and chic.
"He's coming! He's coming!"
Tilly lifted the hem of her dress and ran upstairs in a hurry, ordering people to lock the door.
Soon, Charlie's footsteps were getting closer and closer. A lot of people packed shoulder to shoulder inside and outside the door, and the corridor was full of noise.
Wendy's colleagues and friends in the company also came to help her. Now, Tilly, Emily, and Connie formed a group—they lined up and blocked the door, so as not to let Charlie easily pick up Wendy. Behind the door, Wendy heard the noise and could imagine Charlie's sullen face as he learned that he could not smoothly enter her room. He must have been swearing this damned custom in his heart! Charlie frowned deeply and simply ordered, "Farr, give them lucky money!"
Hearing this, Farr, who was a groomsman like Francis today, immediately took out a thick stack of red envelopes that had been prepared in advance and handed them all over.
In an instant, all Wendy's friends and relatives came up to fight for one when the red envelopes rained on them from above.
Those who got one grinned from ear to ear. Farr had expected this happy scene, for his boss was very generous in giving the lucky money this time. Thus, he walked up to Tilly with great ease and asked, "Tilly Mr. Hogg can go in, right?"
"Oh, it cannot be that easy!" Tilly retorted directly. She raised her voice and said, "Hey, hey. Everyone, quiet down and look at me!"
When all looked over, she took a glass vessel from Connie's hand. It contained many colorful and small slips of paper, each of which was wrapped with a pink string. "There are many rolled-up notes inside. On each was written a task or question. As long as you finish the task or correctly answer the question for three, we will open the door for you!"
"No way. How could you make it so hard?"
Simon could not help but blurt out.
Hearing this, Tilly immediately replied unceremoniously, "Dr. Chin, how can you put it in this way? The master Tang Sanzang and his disciples with far-reaching supernatural power had to undergo and overcome 81 obstacles to obtain the true scriptures! It certainly will not be easy for brother Charlie to get a wife! Please show us some sincerity. Well, if you don't agree with us about three notes, then we can change it to 10!"
"No, no. Please don't..." They cried out in unison.
Charlie, though there were deep furrows in his brow, had to step forward and take out a note from the vessel.
"Oh, you're so lucky. It's just a question!"
Tilly, tilting her head to watch Emily unzip the string and open the note, couldn't help but let out a low cry.
Emily held the note tight in her palm for fear of others seeing it. Then she asked with a smile, "Mr. Hogg, when did your first kiss happen?"
