Chapter 203
After that, Ynda reached into the famous brand bag.
Wendy subconsciously took a step back with caution.
However, it was not something dangerous, but just a piece of newspaper.
When Wendy frowned, the newspaper was stuffed in her arms. Wendy subconsciously raised her
hand. Even if she didn''t want to open it, Ynda had already put the the key position of the
newspaper above.
It seemed to be a piece of heavy news, with thick ck title.
When Wendy saw the striking handwriting clearly, her whole body froze, as if she could feel the
process of blood cooling down little by little in her body.
"Marriage between the Hogg and the Gray assured, grand engagement ceremony on schedule..."
A lot of words came into Wendy''s mind.
The Hogg family, the Gray family, grand ceremony, engagement...
Wendy felt that there were a few shes of thunder on her back.
Something exploded in her ear, making her dizzy. "Have you seen it clearly?" Ynda said
comcently and deliberately, "If you see it clearly, then I will leave! My time is limited, and I have to
apany Sunny to see the dress in the afternoon. The clothes on the important ceremony should
be arranged seriously!"
Seeing Wendy''s face gradually turned pale, Ynda felt very happy.
She came here even without eating breakfast in the early morning just because she wanted to see
Wendy in such a mess. Her envy that had been umting for a long time could finally be vented.
She swung her hair, and left happily.
The next whole day, Wendy didn''t know what she had done.
When she got off work, her colleagues reminded her that it was time to go home. After getting off
the bus, she didn''t go home immediately. Instead, she went to a small shopping mall nearby. She
didn''t have the mood to cook tonight, so she ate fast food in the food stall.
When she came out, a cartoon movie was ying on the big screen, and many children were
watching excitedly.
Wendy was also sitting on a chair in the corner. The cartoon movie was very funny. In the end, she
found that the corners of her mouth were stiff, and the sky outside was getting dark.
Wendy went back to the residential building and found that the white Land Rover was parked there.
She paused her breath for two seconds before she got up and entered the building. When she
looked down, she found that the newspaper Ynda had sent was still in her hand.
In fact, after knowing that Charlie had a fiancee, she wanted to escape. She didn''t want to wait for
the day when Charlie dumped her toe. In order to avoid sadness, she chose to leave him first.
Now seeing the news of their engagement, Wendy felt lucky in her heart.
If they were engaged, it meant that they would get married next...
Wendy took a deep breath and closed her eyes. She told herself not to think about it again, but she
still unconsciously squeezed the newspaper tighter.
Like a snail, she finally climbed to the top floor.
But she stopped, because of the smell of smoke. She looked up and saw Charlie standing in front of
the door. He seemed to be waiting for her. From time to time, he took a look at the clock on his wrist
while spitting out white smoke, and there was a suitcase beside his feet.
A suitcase...
Wendy was stunned.
Was he going to say goodbye to her?
If it was for the broken water pipe before, then now it should be the real n to move out?
When she looked over, Charlie saw the newspaper in her hand at the same time and frowned
immediately.
Charlie lowered his hand, which was holding a cigarette, and asked in a deep voice, "Have you read
the newspaper?"
"Yes..." Wendy nodded.
A kind of pain that seemed to seep out of the blood made her clench her fingers tightly. The pain
was short but fierce.
She walked up thest step and stood in the same level as Charlie.
"Don''t you have anything to ask me or to tell me?" Charlie raised his eyebrows slowly and narrowed
his deep eyes in the light.
Wendy shook her head slowly.
Feeling his oppressive eyes on her, she took a breath, raised her eyes, and said with difficulty,
"Charlie, congrattions."
"Congrattions?" Charlie repeated, and the light in his eyes instantly turned cold.
Then, heughed mockingly, "Good."
Charlie put off the cigarette with his hand and picked up the suitcase beside his feet. When he
walked to her, he stopped. He was so close to her that she could see her in his dark pupils. His thin
lips twitched, and the smell of smoke came out of his mouth.
"Wendy, it doesn''t matter if you don''t understand
__ _ ii
me.
When he said this, his eyes seemed to be full of thick fog, but his tone was so painful.
Before Wendy could figure out the meaning of this sentence, he had already passed by with his
suitcase. The sound of the footsteps soon disappeared, and the lights went out.
Wendy took out the key in a daze, opened the door and went in.
For the next three days, the days seemed to have returned to a dead silence.
Every day, she would go to work and then came back. The door opposite had never been opened,
the window on the top floor had never lit up, and the white Land Rover had never stopped again.
On Friday morning, Wendy and her supervisor went to Flogg''s Group.
Just like the previous two meetings, who receipted them was the department manager. When she
came out of the meeting room and passed by Charlie''s office, the door was tightly closed, as if it
had been locked. She didn''t see the figure of Charlie. Flowever, Farr was still there, but it seemed
that he was at leisure.
When she and her supervisor entered the elevator, Farr followed them.
Because they were in the top floor, it would take some time to go down at a constant pace, leaving
only the three of them in the narrow space.
"Mr. Chiang!" The supervisor rubbed his hands and looked hesitant. It seemed that he had
something to ask. Finally, he said tentatively, "I don''t know if the news is real. I heard that Mr. Flogg
is no longer in Flogg''s Company but has gone to a branchpany in the Lim City?" Hearing this,
Wendy was stunned on the spot.
She opened her eyes wide and looked at Farr. She didn''t dare to blink and stared at his mouth. She
couldn''t believe it.

"Yes!" Farr finally nodded.
"Mr. Chiang, are you serious?" Wendy cried out in a low voice.
Farr nodded and exined with a serious look, "Yes, Miss Lim. Mr. Hogg is no longer in the Hogg''s
Group. It''s a decision made by Chairman Hogg after he held a shareholders'' meeting personally!"
Coming out of the building, it was the typical autumn weather outside. Wendy didn''t know whether it
was because of the shining sun or not, she felt dizzy.
In a trance, she hadn''t epted this fact yet. She subconsciously went to look through "Charlie" in
the call board, but when she dialed the number, the answer was "Sorry, the subscriber you dialed is
powered off". Looking at the sun above her head, she suddenly felt very confused and flustered.
Then, her phone suddenly rang, it was a call from Donna.
"Wendy, what are you doing? Let''s have lunch together?"
Wendy was full of questions in her head now and she wanted answers, so she didn''t think about it
and nodded. "Okay! Auntie, I''ll go and find you!"
