Purchased A Mr. Right

Chapter 264

"It's the least I could do. You helped Larry." Charlie put his hands in his pockets and said with a faint expression, "Miss Lim, if you change your mind, you can go to Hogg's Group to find me at any time. As long as it's not too much to ask, I'll do it!"

Wendy pursed her lips and didn't say anything in the end.

When she took two steps toward the hotel, her fingers were clenched into fists, but she still couldn't help but turn around again.

"Charlie, you..."

All of a sudden, the tall figure suddenly froze.

Wendy's breath seemed to be taken away by the night wind, and she felt a little regretful for her impulse.

Perhaps it's because he had this indifferent and distant tone, or he called her Miss Lim, or she hadn't seen him for four years, she thought she should say "how have you been"...

Her eyes were fixed on him, watching him stop and turn around.

In fact, it was only a few seconds, but she felt that it had been a long time. It was like a slow motion movie, frame by frame.

That pair of deep eyes slowly looked at her. While she was holding her breath, she heard him say in a doubtful tone. "Do we know each other?" Wendy seemed to have been severely knocked on the head by something.

She suddenly opened her eyes wide to look at him, unable to conceal her surprise and shock. She unconsciously pursed her lips, suspecting that he actually did it on purpose, or that she had

misheard him. However, the doubt in his eyes was so real and clear.

Wendy took a step back.

"..." She shook her head, her chest seemed to be blocked by the night.

Back in the hotel, Wendy looked down through the window. There were so many cars on the street that the black Mercedes-Benz had long disappeared.

Her ears seemed to be filled with many small worms, which were buzzing with his last question. She seemed to be in a trance, and his deep eyes and the doubt at the bottom of his eyes emerged...

Wendy closed her eyes. After a while, when she opened them again, she took out her mobile phone.

The line was connected quickly. "Hey, Emily, it's

__ _ n

me...

After saying this, Wendy immediately took her mobile phone away.

Sure enough, the next second, Emily's roar could be heard from the other end of the line even it had not been amplified, causing the eardrums to buzz.

The next day, when it was still dark outside, Wendy opened her eyes. There was something in her heart that made her unable to sleep tight all night.

Lying on the comfortable bed in the hotel, she's counting the time until the morning light came in through the curtains bit by bit. Then she took off the quilt, got dressed, and went to the bathroom to

take a shower and shuffle out the door. Then she went to the magazine company first.

At 10:30 a.m., Wendy arrived at the cafe where she had arranged to meet Emily.

When she pushed open the glass door and entered, she saw Emily, who was sitting next to the wall, looking forward to her. And Emily craned her neck from time to time to look outside.

"Wendy!"

As soon as Emily saw her, Emily almost jumped out of the chair. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Wendy also walked over quickly. They hadn't seen each other for four years, and held each other's hands tightly. It went without saying that they loved and missed each other very much.

Wendy noticed that Emily seemed to have changed a lot. Her shoulder-length short hair had grown long and was tucked in her ear very gently. However, Emily seemed to be thinner and her chin was a little sharp.

After hearing her words, Emily immediately said, "You're the skinny one.! Is the food there not to your liking? You're skinny!"

"I'm fine!" Wendy didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "It's been so many years. You are so cruel! I think that you will never come back for the rest of your life! You only send me emails, with only two sentences in it. I know you're in Canada. I'm so jealous of you! But you don't seem to miss me at all!"

"Nonsense, I miss you the most..." Wendy said sincerely.

During the four years of living in Canada, in addition to unfamiliar surroundings and strange people, there were also friends and colleagues who got along well. But they were not like Emily, Emily and she had the same college bond, and she always missed the time together.

"Hmph, that's more like it!" Emily was just teasing her. Now that after hearing what Wendy said, she felt much better. "I'm not done with you yet. The first thing you've done after returning home is not coming to see me, and I've been waiting for you for the past two days! If you hadn't called me last night, I'm afraid I will go to the hotel to look for you..."

Before Emily could finish her sentence, she suddenly stopped.

Wendy looked over her shoulder, and the expression on her face instantly changed.

Wendy turned her head and saw a tall figure in a white coat rushing in, with a green surgical uniform inside. Obviously, he came out of the hospital and didn't have time to change.

Just like Emily, Wendy also felt that Simon had changed a lot as well.

He still had that pair of peach blossom eyes that anyone would feel dizzy at a glance. However, she felt that something was different about him, not knowing where it came from. Perhaps it was because he had been frowning ever since he entered the door.

"Dr. Chin!"

Wendy called him with a smile.

Yesterday, she called Emily, not only to talk about the old days, but also asked Emily to contact Simon. There were a lot of questions that she couldn't figure out, and she couldn't sleep well if she held them in her heart.

"Sorry, I'm late!" Simon pulled the chair opposite and sat down. He apologized, "Had an extra surgery in a pinch, just got done. Miss Lim, it's been a long time since we last saw each other!"

"Yeah, it's been a long time..." Wendy also sighed.

"I want to smoke, do you mind?" Simon took out a cigarette box from his pocket.

Wendy looked at Emily, who was lowering the head, and shook her head. "No, go ahead..."

Looking at Simon's skillful move of taking out a lighter from his pocket and lighting a cigarette, she suddenly remembered Charlie. In the old days, Charlie also used to habitually hold a lit cigarette between his fingers.

"Dr. Chin, I'm looking for you today..."

"About Charlie, right?" Simon smiled. It seemed that he had already guessed what she wanted to ask, but the expression on his face changed a little, even Emily, who was next to him, After two seconds, he said, "Four years ago, Charlie had a car accident."

"... A car accident?" Wendy was stunned.

"Yes." Simon said in a serious tone.

"So..." Wendy bit her lip and took a breath before asking, "He doesn't remember me, does he?"

When she first met him again, she thought he was pretending to be indifferent and regarded her as a stranger. After all, they had been separated for a long time. It was just that she was shocked when he asked her if they knew each other. If he did lose his memory, it would be absolutely the most absurd scenario that only showed in the soap operas.

Simon did not answer, but his expression showed that the answer was yes.

"I wasn't there at the accident. I didn't hear about it until later. The Hogg's family blocked it very well. I guess it was because they were afraid that something might go wrong in the Hogg's Group, so no one dared to report it to the media, but..." Simon suddenly paused and looked confused. "There is one thing I have always been confused about! Charlie's car accident was not actually serious.

Although he was on the highway at that time, the speed of the other car did not overspeed when it rushed in. What's more, Charlie's Land Rover was hit on the guideboard, so it didn't directly turn over!"

"In addition to a lot of fractures and dislocation in the body, the extent of the head injury wasn't very serious. It's just a moderate concussion. I have seen CT and nuclear magnetic film, and there is no blood clot in his head to suppress the nerve. Even the doctor said that it won't cause amnesia, so it's very strange..."

Wendy didn't say anything after hearing that, but she was sure about one thing.

Charlie didn't remember her now.

In fact, it was not bad. They had broken up four years ago. Not all couples in this world who fell in love ended up spending the rest of their lives together. Sometimes, it might be a good thing to forget.

Since the question in her heart had been answered, Wendy no longer wanted to ask anything, although her chest seemed to be blocked by the images last night.

When she looked down inadvertently, she couldn't help but be stunned. Although she also remembered that Simon smoked, it was rare for her to see him smoking so much.

Or in other words, it was rare for someone to smoke that much.

Not long after he sat down, there was already a small stack of cigarette butts in the next ashtray, and it was getting higher and higher.

Wendy looked at the watch, and then looked at Emily, who always lowered her head and could not be seen the expression on her face clearly. Then she smiled and said to Simon, "Er, Dr. Chin, there is a restaurant next door. It's almost noon. Why don't we have lunch together?"

Hearing what she said, Simon turned to look at Emily with his peach blossom eyes. Simon had a close look at the action of Emily holding the coffee spoon, and her tense expression. He then put out the cigarette in his hand and stood up from the seat. "No, there is going to be another operation in the hospital!"

After that, he walked out of the cafe like a gust of wind, with his white coat flying in the air.

Wendy might not have paid too much attention to the relationship between Emily and Simon before, but it was obvious that Simon left in a huff. Since Emily could contact Simon in a phone call, it meant that they had been entangled with each other all the time.

Wendy gently touched her best friend's hand. "Emily, what happened to you and Dr. Chin?"

Emily lowered her head and put down the coffee spoon in her hand. Her face seemed to be a little pale.

"Emily, are you... all right?" Wendy couldn't help but ask with concern.

Emily was silent for two seconds before she raised her head to look at Wendy. "We're married. Four years ago."

"... you, you and Dr. Chin?" Wendy was shocked to the point of stuttering.

No wonder Wendy always felt that Emily was always lowering her eyes, as if hiding something.

"I'm sorry, Wendy. I kept this from you back then." Emily held Wendy's hand and twitched her mouth, but her voice was bitter. "I didn't mean to hide it from you. It's just that our marriage is complicated. I don't know how to mention it to you, so..." Although Wendy knew that Simon had long gone, she still looked in the direction of the door, swallowing her saliva and hadn't digested it yet.

However, before she could recover from the explosive news, another one came in.

Just like her, Emily looked up in the direction where Simon had left just now. Emily smiled and suddenly said softly, "But we have divorced. Four days ago."
