Chapter 428


    As soon as Wendy entered the apartment building, her cell phone rang.


    In her sight, the ck Mercedes stopped in front of the flower bed. Uncle Lee, who was sitting at the


    driver''s seat, had taken out a newspaper and spread it open. Wendy took out her phone and knew


    who was calling without looking at it.


    She put it next to her ear, and her mouth curved slightly, "Well, I''ve arrived!"


    "I''m ready to get in the elevator now!"


    After pressing the elevator button, she continued to report further.


    After Charlie took her to the Hogg''s Mansion that day, Gilbert seemed to be too angry and got sick.


    E called the vi several times in a row, but it was Aunt Lee who picked it up. Charlie didn''t care


    about it and didn''t go to the Hogg''s Mansion to visit Gilbert. But Donna took Larry there, and Charlie


    didn''t object.


    So she was alone today and wanted to see her best friend, Emily.


    During Charlie''s hospitalization, Emily showed different emotions when she was visiting Charlie with


    Simon, and Wendy had been thinking about it all the time.


    Charlie repeatedly advised in his calm voice, "Don''t let Uncle Lee go back, ask him to wait for you


    downstairs."


    Since thest kidnapping incident, Charlie was very cautious with her travels, almost hired two


    bodyguards to protect her. As long as she''s out of the vi, he must know her whereabouts.


    Wendy knew that he was worried about her, and he was afraid that such a thing would happen


    again.


    "Okay, I know!" She said in a softer voice.


    Charlie didn''t hang up until he got her promise.


    Wendy came out of the elevator and knocked on the security door, but there was no response from


    inside for a long time.


    She even suspected that there was no one home, but she had called Emily in advance and knew


    that she would be at home, so she came over...


    When she was thinking about taking out her phone again, the security door suddenly opened.


    Simon wore light- colored casual clothes and slippers of the same color. His short hair was also


    softly hanging in front of his forehead. He looked like a houseman. The light in his peach blossom


    eyes was still dizzy, but his face looked gray.


    Wendy was stunned and asked tentatively, "Hey, Dr. Chin, where is Emily?"


    "She''s in the bathroom." Simon said, turning around to take a look.


    Then he turned around and took out a pair of slippers from the shoe cab for her.


    Wendy expressed her thanks, and then followed him to the inner room. Seeing that his back was as


    straight as a mountain, she could not help asking hesitantly, "You two... quarreled?"


    Hearing this, Simon didn''t say a word and tacitly approved.


    Wendy understood what had happened. When she was about to open her mouth, she saw that the


    living room was in a mess. Several couch pillows were not in ce. The humidifier ced on the


    tea table was knocked over, and the water inside dripped a carpet. Even the vase standing next to it


    was damaged. Although it was not broken, the fake flowers and nts inside were all scattered...


    Wendy frowned.


    She swallowed and couldn''t help but stand in the position of her best friend, with a bit of


    condemnation in her tone, "Dr. Chin, no matter what, you''re a man, so you should be more


    gracious. Even if you get angry and quarrel, you''d better give way to Emily..."


    "She smashed these." Simon''s voice sounded very aggrieved.


    "Ahem!" Wendy suddenly looked embarrassed and stuttered, "She is pregnant..."


    Pregnant women were generally very unstable, so it''s normal for them to asionally get mad or


    something...


    The bathroom door opened and Emily walked out of it.


    Wendy didn''t know whether it had something to do with the mess in this room, but Emily looked very


    bad, her lips were a little pale and she looked weak as if she could be blown down if there was a


    gust of wind. She forced a smile after saw Wendy, "Wendy, you are here."


    Simon, who was standing at the side, could naturally tell that. His brows were tightly knitted


    together.


    Just as he was about to step forward, his phone rang.

    When Simon saw the number disyed on the screen, he hesitated for a moment. "Hello, Addy."


    Although Wendy couldn''t hear the voice on the phone, it was obvious that this name didn''t belong to


    a man...


    She looked at Emily subconsciously, only to see Emily''s eyshes hanging down, and she couldn''t


    see the true emotions in Emily''s eyes.


    "I see. I''ll be right there!"


    When Simon finished this sentence, he had ended the call in a hurry.


    Then, he held his phone and frowned more tightly, with hesitation in his almond-shaped eyes.


    On the other hand, it was Emily who sneered and said, "What are you waiting for? Didn''t you say


    you would go there right away?"


    Simon was agitated by Emily''s words, held the phone tightly and looked at Wendy apologetically,


    "Miss Lim, I have to go out first."


    "Well, alright..." Wendy nodded her head.


    "I''ll be back soon!" Simon went two steps towards Emily, raised his hand, and tidied her hair after


    got closer. "You wanted to eat hot and sour noodles yesterday, I''ll get one for you at the university


    when Ie back!"


    Wendy saw them clearly from the side. Simon was almost coaxing Emily, even with a hint of ttery.


    Wendy never thought that Simon, who known as the serious Dr. Chin in the hospital, and the cynical


    Young Master Chin in the night club, could have such a face.


    However, Emily didn''t seem to appreciate his kindness. She brushed his hand away coldly and


    didn''t say anything.


    Simon pursed his lips slightly, grabbed the car key on the side, and turned to leave.


    Wendy helped Emily to sit on the couch in the living room, she wanted to speak but stopped on


    second thought. "Emily, what happened to you and Dr. Chin?"


    "I don''t know either..." Emily raised her hand to cover her face.


    Wendy frowned and couldn''t help looking at the direction of the entrance. Simon had already left. As


    a bystander, she could see that Simon cared about her best friends Emily. But that call just now...


    Emily seemed to be very tired. She gently held Wendy''s hand and said, "Wendy, I''m so tired. I want


    to sleep!"


    Wendy thought that Emily was pregnant now and needed a good rest the most, so she didn''t say


    anything more and helped Emily into the bedroom. She helped Emily to the bed, set the air


    conditioner to the proper temperature, and waited until Emily closed her eyes and fell asleep.


    Wendy gently closed the bedroom door, and sighed.


    She picked up the humidifier and put it back, then put the pillows back one by one, along the vases


    lying on the ground. After tidying up, she left the apartment building.


    When she came out of the elevator and was about to push open the ss door of the hall, an arm


    suddenly reached out and pulled her over. Then the person covered her mouth and pressed her


    against the wall, and shouted with a deliberately lowered voice, "Don''t move!"


    Wendy turned pale with fright and almost cried out.


    The reason why she did not shout out was that she had already seen the person in front of her


    clearly.


    "Charlie, you scared the hell out of me!" Wendy red at him in annoyance. Didn''t he know that


    people could scare people to death?


    Charlie let go of the hand covering her mouth and put his arm around her waist. He propped one


    arm against the wall, forming a circle, "Are you really scared?"
