Chapter 262


    The dazzling light of the operatingmp was above her head.


    She''s facing the dazzling light the entire time, feeling as if she would go blind the next second, but


    still staring that closely.


    She didn''t know how long it took, but she felt as if all her strength was exhausted. Finally, she


    vaguely heard the baby crying. It was very light. She tried to listen again, but it suddenly


    disappeared...


    Someone''s speaking, and cruel words echoed in her ears, "I''m sorry! We''ve tried our best. We didn''t


    save the baby!"


    No, it''s impossible...


    She was like crazy, trying to get off the operating table.


    However, the foreign doctors wearing masks all came up to hold her shoulders to stop her from


    going crazy. Then, one of the doctors was holding a tray, and there was a baby covered with blood


    on it...


    Wendy suddenly sat up.


    The light through the curtains shone on her pale face, and the real images of the dream still shed


    in her head so often that it took a long time for the dted pupils to finallye into focus and her


    back was covered with cold sweat.


    Looking at the surrounding scenery, she remembered that she was in the hotel at this time.


    Wendy lifted the quilt and went straight to the bathroom. She turned on the faucet and put her whole


    face in the cold water. When the images of the dream disappeared from her mind, she felt like


    herself again.


    She often had nightmares like this in the past four years.


    Every time, she would wake up from it and be haunted by it for a long time. Even now, she would


    asionally go to a psychologist.


    Looking at herself in the mirror, Wendy breathed deeply.


    After washing up, she went back to the bedroom. The mobile phone next to the pillow was ringing.


    She looked at it and found it was a call from her colleague who was in Canada.


    "Lim, you''ve arrived at Ice city, right?"


    "Yes, safe and sound."


    They continued to talk on the line, "The chief editor asked me to tell you that a character interview


    may have to be done in advance. It''s said that he will go to Japan for a business trip tomorrow night,


    and probablye back in three months. ording to your current local time, you must finish it


    today, otherwise, you will have to go to Japan!"


    "Okay, I know..." Wendy took the note and said.


    She came back this time on business. The magazine was going to issue an anniversary edition and


    needed to interview some financial tycoons. Since she was the only one who came from Ice city in


    the Branch office in Canada, it was easy for her to negotiate with the headquarters, so the task was


    handed over to her.


    Besides, she hadn''t been back for a long time, so she wanted to visit her grandmother.


    Wendy ordered breakfast in the hotel. After having breakfast, she packed up and went out of the


    hotel.


    Since she hadmunicated with the interviewee before, the scheduled interview went smoothly.


    After she arrived, she talked to the receptionist first, then took the elevator directly to the upstairs.


    The interview was going to happen in the office. It was near the sofa by the window, and the natural


    lighting was perfect for the shot.


    It was a long- established privatepany. The current chairman was in his 60s, and he''s the one


    she''s interviewing this time. He was not overbearing at all during the whole conversation and spoke


    kindly about his business history and his views on the financial industry. Wendy was earnestly


    typing on theputer, not missing a single word.


    At the end of the interview, someone knocked on the door of the office.


    The secretary who led Wendy in before nodded respectfully and reported, "Mr. Hsu, Mr. Hogg is


    here!"


    Mr. Hogg...


    Wendy''s hand on the keyboard were shaking.


    There were a few more messy numbers on the screen, and She felt like she had stopped breathing,


    and her palm began to sweat, and soon, it was all In the whole city, there might be a lot of people


    surnamed Huo, but there were a few people who were called Mr. Hogg...


    She was obviously sitting on the couch, but suddenly she felt a little unsteady on her feet and her


    calves and stomach felt like they were shaking slightly.


    Mr. Hsu seems to have a high regard for Charlie. He immediately told the secretary, "Well, bring him


    in!"


    At the moment Wendy returned to normal breathing, she quickly closed theputer.


    Mr. Hsu, who was on the opposite side of the room, was shocked. She touched the stiff corner of


    her mouth and said, "Mr. Hsu, We''re almost done with the interview. Since you have a guest, I''ll


    leave you to it. I''ll email your secretary when I''ve put the interview together!"


    Mr. Hsu was slightly surprised. If he remembered correctly, there should be two more questions to


    go, right?

    But he only thought that probably Wendy had gotten enough material she needed, so he did not say


    anything. He smiled and nodded, "Okay!"


    Wendy was packing up her things in a hurry. As she stood up, she noticed that Mr. Hsu had also


    suddenly stood up from across the room.


    She was ttered for a moment, she thought he was going to send her off. When she was about to


    open her mouth to say no, but the back of her spine suddenly tightened, because she seemed to


    hear the sound of the door being pushed open again, followed by the steady footsteps.


    It was getting closer and closer...


    Charlie was still like what she remembered, wearing a ck suit that set off his long legs, and a


    white shirt with a tie on the neckline. He came over with one hand in his pocket, and his deep eyes


    were as deep as an ancient well.


    Wendy, who was ready to take the time to leave, crashed into that pair of eyes unexpectedly.


    "Mr. Hogg is here!"


    "Mr. Hsu."


    They shook their hand very familiarly.


    "This is Miss Lim from Trade Update, she''s here to interview me, but now that the interview is over,


    so we can talk about the contract!" Mr. Hsu seemed to think it''s inconvenient to have someone else


    here, so after a brief introduction, he said to the secretary, "Send Miss Lim off!"


    Wendy held theputer tightly and moved mechanically.


    When she passed Charlie, he finally looked at her with his deep eyes. There was no ripple in his


    eyes, and his eyes moved away in a sh, as if he was looking at a stranger.


    After walking out of the office, Wendy''s fingers clenched so tightly that were about to be crushed.


    When the lights were on.


    Spring was the most beautiful season, even at night, there seemed to be a flower fragrance in the In


    front of the cashier of a Chinese restaurant, a female colleague asked with concern, "Wendy, are


    you okay? You''ve been absent- minded during dinner. Is because it''s been a long time since you''ve


    been home and you''re not used to it?"


    The female colleague in front of her was the one who connected with her in the office. They were of


    the same age, and there were many opportunities to contact each other in the next month. So when


    this female colleague proposed to have dinner together after work, she did not refuse. It was a good


    chance to talk more about work, so it would be easier for them to get along with each other in the


    future.


    "Well, a little..." Wendy stammered.


    "It''s okay! Maybe you''ve been abroad for a long time. Now that youe back, you need time to


    get used to it. I was away at college, and when I came back to work it was still new to me!"


    Wendy just smiled.


    Throughout the afternoon, she was thinking about the scene when she saw Charlie in Hsu''s Group.


    She didn''t think that it had been four years, and they had only had a quick nce at each other, that


    he would still affect her that easily.


    Thinking of the moment when she passed him, he looked at her as if he was looking at a stranger.


    Wendy smiled bitterly.


    That''s right. They had broken up a long time ago and had nothing to do with each other. They were


    just strangers now...


    However, for some reason, she felt that something was wrong.


    Suddenly, someone knocked her arm, and her female colleague whispered in her ear, "Ah! Look, it''s


    Mr. Hogg!"


    Wendy looked over and saw a tall figureing out of the elevator. He was wearing the same ck


    suit in the morning. His pace was fast but not messy. The profile of his side face was smooth and


    handsome, but his eyes were very indifferent.


    Wendy noticed that many women in the restaurant were automatically attracted by Charlie,


    especially the waiter standing at the door. Their eyes were full of affection to him. Sure enough, as


    before, no matter where he went, his charm was enough to make women deeply obsessed.


    "You should know Mr. Hogg! Our magazine wants to interview him, but unfortunately, he rejected us


    many times! You see, he is so handsome, like a male model. If I could have a one-night stand with


    such a man, I''ll have no regrets in this life!"


    "Look his son in his arms. Oh my god! The man with a child is so handsome!"


    When Wendy heard thest word, she looked down slightly.


    When she saw the little boy in Charlie''s arms, she was stunned.


    It was the little boy she had picked up that day. At this time, the little boy was still wearing a small


    suit, which was still ck, but the style was obviously different. He was handsome, with a small


    handkerchief in his right pocket, and had that slightly curled mushroom hair. It''s just that his little


    face was tense at this time. He looked so cool, doing that ssic pose of his.


    Along the way, many people looked at the little boy. In addition to Charlie''s eye- catching identity


    and appearance, the cute little boy was also very attractive, but he bulged his cheeks and stared


    back at those people.


    Recalling what her colleague said just now, Wendy saw that Charlie had the same facial features as


    the little boy in his arms, and their facial expression waspletely the same even at this time, her


    heart suddenly tightened.


    An idea almost exploded in her heart in an instant. Charlie had a son?


    It turned out to be his son...


    In a trance, Charlie had already walked quickly to the door of the restaurant. The receptionist had


    already pushed the door for him. He kept holding the child with one hand all the time, even feeling


    the muscles of his forearm beneath his suit, his other hand in his pocket the entire time.


    Wendy vaguely felt that Charlie seemed to turn to her side, and her heart skipped a beat.


    As if she was running away something, she quickly turned back to the cashier, curling up her hands


    hard, and trying to regte her rising and falling breathing.


    She took a deep breath and then spat it out...


    When she felt much better, she bit her lip and inexplicably felt that many people in the restaurant


    seemed to look at her, especially the female colleague next to her, excitedly pulled her sleeves.


    Wendy was puzzled and hesitated to turn back.


    Then she saw the little boy that was in Charlie''s arms a second ago was rushing toward her.


    She felt a warmth in her calves and the little boy had taken hold of her leg. The small head with


    slightly curly mushroom hair raised up and stretched out two short arms to her. A soft and sweet


    voice jumped out of his mouth.


    "I want a hug!"
