Purchased A Mr. Right

Chapter 243

"Wendy."

When the line went through, a quiet voice sounded in her ears.

Wendy clenched her mobile phone. When she heard his voice, she seemed to have someone to rely on. "Charlie..."

"It's Sunday. You're at home?" Charlie's voice wasn't much better than hers, it was also hoarse and deeply tired. "I'm still in the company. I asked my aunt to go back first. She's been nervous these days. I'll go back to the hotel and sleep after the project in hand finished."

"What are you doing?" After he said that, he asked her again.

Wendy looked at the shocking white in the ward, and then the blinding sun outside the window.

At this time, it should be late at night at his place.

Even if she couldn't see it, she could imagine that he was lying on the conference table, with a stack of hill- high documents in front of him, and a tired shadow was crawling on the outline of his tough face.

Wendy closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

As if she was afraid he'd hear something strange, she tried to act as if nothing had happened. "I am watching TV..."

"I miss you." "Me too..."

Wendy's nose was sour and she almost let out a cry.

Charlie seemed to light a cigarette and said in a deep voice, "If everything goes well, just a few more days and I'll be able to help my aunt get through this crisis, and then I can go back! Wendy, wait for me!."

"Okay..." Wendy nodded with red eyes.

After hanging up the phone, Felix frowned and asked, "Why didn't you tell him?"

Wendy didn't say anything, and her eyes were red.

Seeing this, Felix seemed to have guessed it and asked, "Are you afraid that he will worry about you?"

"Yes..." Wendy said softly, "If I said that my grandmother passed away, he would buy a ticket and come back to me immediately, but his aunt needs him now. If he comes back, all that effort will have been for nothing! I'll tell him when he's done with that..."

Donna had always treated her well.

Wendy didn't want Donna's company to go bankrupt. She heard him on the phone just now. FHis voice was so hoarse and he was so tired. If she told him about her grandmother, even if he didn't come back, he must be worried and anxious. Moreover, Donna really needed him and she didn't want him to fall into a dilemma.

"Even at this time, you're still thinking about him." Felix smiled, somewhat far-fetched.

Wendy didn't say anything but tried to cheer herself up. Felix was right. She had to cheer up and take care of her grandmother's funeral. She wanted to let the Grandma rest in peace.

There was a custom in the countryside that the family needed to stay with the dead for three nights.

She was the only granddaughter, so she had to do all these things at the funeral by herself. There was a shed outside the yard, and many neighbors came over to pay their respects one by one.

Wendy, dressed in black, returned a salute to everyone who came to the funeral.

Felix did not leave and accompanied her to deal with her grandmother's funeral. She was very grateful. At this time, she had a friend around her, which was greatly comforted both physically and mentally.

When her best friend, Emily, heard the news, Emily came as well with Simon.

Emily rushed to Wendy as soon as she saw Wendy, with both eyes as red as a rabbit. In the end, Emily was pulled away by Simon. Simon felt guilty. After all, he who healed had a heart of gold, and Wendy's grandmother was used to be his patient. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

But Wendy knew that it had nothing to do with Simon. No one wanted an accident like that, and she would have wanted her grandmother to live to be a hundred years old.

Simon asked Wendy if she had told Charlie, but she said no, and told Simon the reason. Simon nodded with understanding after hearing that. Emily and Simon didn't stay long. Emily seemed to be sick and looked sickly, coughing all the time. And the hospital where Simon worked kept calling Simon for surgeries. Wendy told them to leave and don't worry about her.

By the end of the third night, she couldn't hold on any longer.

Felix passed through the yard with a thermos cup filled with hot water, and handed the mobile phone to her at the same time. "Wendy, your mobile phone is charged. There was a strange number calling twice just now, so I answered it. But the caller seemed to have dialed the wrong number and hung up quickly."

Wendy reached for her phone and flipped through the call logs. Sure enough, there was a strange number on it.

She nodded and didn't pay too much attention to it.

Felix saw that she looked very pale and gently helped her to stand up, and said in a gentle voice, "Wendy, go back to your room and sleep for a while. I'll stay with Grandma."

They were so close, so Wendy didn't insist and nodded.

After watching her enter the house, it wasn't long before an eye- catching sports car drove up and parked next to the shed, and then a familiar figure stepped out.

"Felix."

When Felix saw the coming person, he stood up and greeted, "Ewan, you are here!" At noon, Ewan called Felix for dinner. Felix told him about the situation here, and Ewan immediately said that he would come over.

"Well, how is Wendy? She must be devastated, right?" Ewan looked into the yard.

Felix nodded and sighed with pity, "Yes, she has a bad relationship with her father, and her mother died early. Grandma and she have been dependent on each other all the time. Grandma was almost her only family in this world. It's really hard for her!"

Ewan nodded and sighed.

The two chatted idly. As if carelessly, Ewan pulled a cigarette out of his pocket and handed it over, "Felix, do you want one?"

"Then I'll have one!" Felix stretched out his hand and took it.

Fle's afraid he would get sleepy later, and he would be more energetic if he smoked a cigar.

Ewan looked at Felix and took the lighter out of his pocket. When he helped to turn on the lighter, there was a moment of hesitation and complexity on his face.

Felix took a few deep breaths and felt a little different. There seemed to be a faint fragrance. "Is this from abroad?"

"Yes, someone sent it to me. It's not too strong!" Ewan looked at the ground instead of looking directly at Felix. When Ewan was about to finish his cigarette, he did not raise his head. Instead, he said, "Felix, I'll help you guard it for a while. You go in and see Wendy. She needs a company now!" Felix nodded and said, "Alright, thank you."

"We don't need this!" Ewan replied lazily.

Felix patted Ewan on the shoulder and said no more. Indeed, he was a little worried. Fie stepped on the cigarette and walked to the yard, without noticing the dark light in Ewan's eyes.

When Felix entered the room, he found that the bedroom door was open. There was a dim light on the roof of the shed.

Wendy didn't sleep but sat on the end of the bed hugging her knees.
