Chapter 248


    There were two huge round stone pirs in front of the building. Because of the angle, the pir just


    obscured her, and Charlie couldn''t see her from where he was.


    Wendy saw Charlie bend over, take out arge bouquet of lilies from the car, and hand it to Madge


    beside him, then Madge took it with both hands.


    Wendy couldn''t see the expression on his face because he was standing with his back to Wendy,


    but Wendy could clearly see Madge with two shallow dimples on her cheeks.


    Her red lips opened and closed. Wendy didn''t know what she had said to Charlie, but he took the


    lead in walking into the building.


    In a trance, Wendy saw Madge approaching her with flowers in hands, and there was an obvious


    surprise on Madge''s face.


    "Miss Lim!"


    "Miss Gray..."


    It was toote for Wendy to hide, so she had to say hello.


    Madge kept the posture of holding flowers with both hands and looked at her with a smile. Madge


    greeted her in a tone as if they had a good rtionship, "What a coincidence! It''s like no matter


    where I go, I always run into you!"


    Wendy moved the corners of her mouth in response.


    Her eyes were fixed on the lilies in Madge''s hand. She could not tell how many flowers there were


    now. It seemed that every flower was carefully chosen to bloom just right and the fragrance of the


    flowers blew over from time to time.


    Well, the lilies fit Madge''s temperament perfectly.


    "Charlie gave me this flower!" Madge showed two dimples.


    "..." Wendy''s hands, which were hidden in her sleeves, were all clenched.


    She felt as if a thousand vines had been born in her blood, tangling around her neck and making it


    hard to breathe.


    Whose words were still ringing in her ears? He only sent flowers to two women, one was his mother


    and one was her....


    Was that also a lie to her...


    "Miss Gray, you don''t have to exin it to me. It has nothing to do with me anymore!" Wendy


    breathed secretly, trying to make herself not so embarrassed. "We have broken up..."


    A light shed through Madge''s eyes without leaving a trace, and her smile was very bright. "I know,


    Charlie has already told me!"


    "Oh." Wendy clenched her hands tightly.


    Wendy felt that she had to leave, or she would copse if she stayed another second.


    Just as Wendy was about to leave, Madge suddenly inadvertently raised her hand and touched her


    corbone.


    Wendy, who was standing in front of Madge, unconsciously took a look at Madge''s corbone, and


    her heart stopped for a second.


    Her voice trembled uncontrobly. "Your ne..."


    "Is it beautiful?" Madge opened up the cor of her coat a bit, where there was a small key pendant


    in the shape of a sunflower. It was iid with tiny diamonds, shining brightly. "This is also a gift from


    Charlie. I like it very much!"


    Almost instantly, Wendy covered her neck.


    She grabbed the same small key pendant in her clothes tightly and was already devasted. "Miss


    Gray, I''m sorry, I have to go..."


    After that, she fled.


    In Hogg''s Mansion.


    In the bedroom upstairs with a Chinese feel, Gilbert, who had just been discharged from the


    hospital, was sitting on the old-fashioned wooden armchair. He had almost recovered and lived in


    the hospital for many days. Now he''s in a good mood because he finally returned home. His face,


    which had always been serious, was much softer.

    The fragrance of lilies drifted in the room from time to time.


    Madge stood in front of the window, unwrapped the bouquet, and inserted them into the vase one


    by one.


    E poured the tea, got up, and walked to the window. "Madge, let the servants do it! Come and


    have a cup of tea!"


    "It''s okay. Two more in the vase and I''m done!" Madge smiled and turned back to Gilbert and said,


    "This is an imported lily I picked out especially for Uncle Hogg. It smellsfortable but not


    pungent! Moreover, I''ve taken Flower Arrangement Course abroad, I''m sure Uncle Hogg will be


    happier if I make the flowers look better!"


    "Well, well, Madge is very thoughtful!" Gilbert nodded with satisfaction.


    He then looked at his quiet son and asked, "Charlie, have you dealt with the crisis of your aunt''s


    company? Is she all right now?"


    "Yes." Charlie curled his lips and stood up from the chair. "I''m leaving."


    It was the day Gilbert was discharged from the hospital, and E called Charlie and asked him to


    come over. She had already sent a driver to Hogg''s Group, so when he came out of the building, he


    got into the car directly. Unexpectedly, Madge was also in the car and said that Charlie''s father


    asked her to go with him.


    After just a few words, Charlie was about to leave. Gilbert frowned unhappily, E quickly said,


    "Charlie, You''re not staying for dinner? I just ordered the kitchen to add more food!"


    "No, I''ve got to go." Charlie said calmly.


    Without stopping, he simply walked out of the room with one hand in his pocket.


    Madge, who just sat in the chair, also stood up after hearing what Charlie said. "Uncle Hogg, I''ll go


    back first. I''lle back to see you some other time!"


    After Gilbert nodded, Madge quickly chased after Charlie.


    Madge went out of the bedroom and saw the tall figure. It was just a view of his back, which made


    her addicted and infatuated. Her eyes were full of love for him. She trotted after him and said,


    "Charlie, wait for me! I''m going back too. Can we go together?"


    "I''m going the other way." Charlie refused.


    Madge didn''t mind at all, still kept smiling and said in a soft voice, "It doesn''t matter. Let the driver


    give me a ride! I can..."


    Charlie suddenly stopped.


    His deep eyes narrowed slightly. Then, he walked toward her step by step, and his tall figure


    enveloped her.


    Madge didn''t seem to expect this either. Her voice suddenly stopped. She was stunned at first, but


    soon she couldn''t suppress the joy in her heart. Especially when he was getting closer and closer,


    her back was already attached to the wall of the corridor.


    For so many years, they hadn''t even been intimate, let alone this close...


    Madge''s heart beat so fast that she couldn''t hide the shyness in her voice. "Charlie?"


    From the beginning to the end, Charlie did not look at her at all. Instead, he focused on the small


    key pendant on her neck, and the expression on his face became more and more indifferent. "You


    look ugly on that ne."


    After saying this coldly, he turned around and left. Madge''s face was slightly pale.


    Only when she looked down did she realize what he was referring to.


    The tall figure in front of her had already gone downstairs. She raised her hand and put it behind


    her neck, unbuttoning the ne slowly.


    Looking at the small key pendant lying in her hand, Madge smiled as if it was worthless. She didn''t


    even look at it and threw it to the servant passing by. "It''s yours."


    "Ah!" The servant was stunned. She was ttered and took it over while looking at the shining


    diamond on the ne. She didn''t expect she''d be so lucky. She bowed to express her gratitude,


    "Thank you, Miss Gray, thank you!"
