Purchased A Mr. Right
Chapter 594

Wendy felt ice cold. Lucky for her, when she woke up, Larry was leaning against her, and the warmth coming from his little body made her feel much better.

Seeing that she was in the hospital gown, Larry raised his little face and asked nervously, "Mom, are you sick?"

"No, I'm fine!" Wendy shook his head. Then, when Larry carefully reached out to touch her belly, she added, "Your little sister is fine too!"

"Mom, what about papa?" Larry breathed a sigh of relief and then asked suddenly.

His big eyes blinked, and he unhappily pursed his mouth tight when he complained to her. "I asked grandfathers, Aunt Tilly, and Uncle Francis, but all of them didn't tell me where my papa went!"

After returning from the church to the hotel, Larry had been waiting for the feast at the wedding site. But, to his surprise, the wedding feast was canceled later on. He had no idea what had happened when many guests left while whispering something. Besides, his grandpa passed out. Although children could not fully understand adults' affairs, they were sensitive enough to know that something terrible must have happened.

No one told Larry the truth because they found it hard to tell him this bad news about his father under the gaze of his innocent and clear eyes.

Looking at Larry, whose facial features were almost the same as Charlie's, Wendy put him in her arms and gently stroked his slightly curly hair, her heart like lead. Then she forced a smile and said in a cracked voice, "My dear baby, papa will come back!"

"Did papa go on a business trip again?" Larry scratched his head and asked.

"Yes..." Wendy took a deep breath. "Do you remember the last time that he went on a business trip suddenly? It's just that he may go a little longer this time, but I promise that he will come back, and we just need to wait for him at home, okay, baby?"

"Okay!" Larry nodded obediently.

"Wendy, you don't have to do this!" Tilly, who had been crying in Francis's arms, felt very uncomfortable when she saw Wendy's forced smile and Larry's childish voice. She couldn't help crying out loud. "Larry is a little child, but I think a four-year-old child has the right to know that his father has died..."

Wendy reached out and covered her son's ears in time.

Larry looked up at her pitifully. On his childish face, there was still no trace of gloominess.

Wendy gave Tilly a hint with her eyes and stopped her from talking more about it. Then she kissed Larry's little forehead, got up, and called Aunt Lee at the door. "Aunt Lee, take Larry home first." "Okay!" Aunt Lee nodded with red eyes and took Larry's hand. "Little Young Master, let's go home first!"

Aunt Lee took Larry out of the ward and closed the door. Only then did Wendy stand up slowly with the help of Emily behind her. Her face was pale, but her eyes were shining with infinite hope. Then she said stubbornly, "I just said that Charlie didn't die."

"Wendy, I know how you feel. But since the car was ruined, anyone who stayed inside would have no chance..." Kim could not finish his words. After all, the truth was too cruel for Wendy.

Simon punched on the wall twice, and now the blood on his broken knuckles had clotted. He said in a hoarse voice, "Miss Lim, the police have already investigated the accident. Besides, they had interrogated Madge and made everything clear after her emergency surgery. She confessed all the crimes. It was her who asked someone to trick Charlie into going out by using the church's phone. Then she sneaked into his car and did something to its brake. As a result, they had a car accident on the road bridge. Her purpose was to kill Charlie, so she also put bombs in the car's trunk. The bombs caused the two explosions..." If there were no bombs, Charlie might have a glimmer of hope of surviving.

Although it was cruel, Simon had to tell her, "Besides, Madge fell from the passenger seat. The police also made some investigations, and there was a witness who saw that Charlie was in the driver's seat holding the steering wheel in his hand when the accident happened..."

"Even if he was in the car, so what?" Wendy licked her cracked lips and asked, trying desperately to prove that he had the chance to stay alive. "Or... Perhaps he escaped before the car exploded. Under the car was the river, so he could jump into the river and survive..."

After saying this, she instantly fell silent.

The corners of her mouth were tightly closed - she was trying hard to prevent her tears from flowing down again. No one in the ward could utter a word, and the atmosphere there became oppressive and somber.

It was because they knew that Charlie did not know how to swim...

Wendy also knew this. Not long after they first met, he was accidentally knocked into the river when snatching the phone on the cruise ship. She remembered that it was her who jumped into the river and saved him. Charlie could not swim because of the terrifying shadow he got when he was very young.

She could not convince herself that a miracle would happen. However, she did not think that he would leave her forever on the wedding day and let her live without him in this world since then.

"I don't believe that he died."

Wendy shook her head repeatedly, and her tears burst out silently from her eyes. She still insisted that he was still alive and said, "Charlie can't die. He won't bear to leave our children and me. We promised each other that we would stay together forever. He will come back. He will!"

When everyone heard this, they could only bow their heads and sigh silently. Three days later

was the day of Charlie's funeral in the graveyard.

His funeral was not a splendid one. There were only a few black cars, and guests of his funeral were his close relatives and friends. The cars were parked in a row at the cemetery hill's foot, and everyone who got off from the cars was dressed in solemn black.

Gilbert could not walk steadily and had to go forward with the help of Ella, his wife, and Donna. Kim walked to him and said after a sigh, "Wendy didn't come. She believed that Charlie would not leave her and was still alive, so she would not come..."

Gilbert sighed and nodded. "Just let her do what she wants. I can understand her feelings. Don't push her too hard!"

"Mm." Kim said with an air of melancholy.

Bunches of chrysanthemums were placed next to the tombstone. When Gilbert saw the picture of his son, who looked very similar to him, he could not help looking up at the sky and crying out loud in the cold wind. He had lost his son!

After the cars left the cemetery, Ewan in mourning clothes came to the villa.

When he entered, Wendy came out of the living room and was going upstairs.

In just three days, even if she was pregnant, she had lost a lot of weight, and her chin became slimmer. Since Charlie died, everyone was worried about her and feared that she could not hold on any longer. Unexpectedly, she was unusually tough.

"Wendy."

Ewan called her in a low voice.

Hearing him, Wendy stopped and looked back at him.

Ewan walked two steps in and continued in a low voice, "I just came back from the cemetery. Charlie's funeral is over."

Wendy pursed the corners of her mouth and said nothing.
