Chapter 432


    Although Wendy had rejected both of Charlie''s suggestions in the morning, he still came out of the


    company in advance in the evening.


    However, when he drove back to the vi, he found that she was not there. Aunt Lee told him that


    Miss Lim went out in the afternoon, and she had already called home and said that she had an


    appointment with her friends for dinner and would note back to eat.


    Charlie immediately called Wendy, but she did not pick it up on purpose. She seemed to be afraid


    that he would be worried about her because of the previous kidnapping incident, and subsequently


    sent a text message to inform him.


    Donna took Larry to Hogg''s Mansion and didn''te back, he was the only one left in the whole


    vi.


    Charlie sat on the couch, casually flipping through the newspaper on the coffee table. From time to


    time, he raised his eyes and looked out of the window. He suddenly felt that this was even tougher


    thanst night when he''s alone in the study room.


    Since Charlie was the only one having dinner, Aunt Lee simply cooked two dishes, but he didn''t


    have much appetite.


    The sky had already fallen, and the weather forecast said there would be heavy rain tonight. The


    moon could no longer be seen in the cloudy sky. Charlie walked downstairs from the study after


    finished the video conference.


    He looked down at his watch, and it was almost nine o''clock. He pulled his lips and asked Aunt Lee,


    who just came out of the kitchen, "Aunt Lee, Wendy hasn''te back yet?"


    When Aunt Lee heard this and replied, "Miss Lim just called. She said that she would note


    back tonight..."


    "She''s noting back?" Charlie frowned.


    "Yes!" Aunt Lee nodded.


    "Didn''t she tell you where to go if she doesn''te back?"


    "No..."


    Charlie took out his phone. Just like that time, the phone was still unanswered. Then she sent him a


    text message, whichpletely confirmed what Aunt Lee said.


    Like a deted ball, he leaned over and sat on the couch. At this time, he didn''t even have the mood


    to flip through the newspaper.


    One hour ago, Larry was sent back by Donna. Now he was lying on the carpet next to Charlie,


    puckering his little buttocks in a Lego pile. Suddenly, he raised his face and shouted, "Daddy!"


    Charlie raised his head and gave his son a look.


    "Is Wendy angry? Did she leave home?"


    Larry asked softly. He had just heard Aunt Lee''s conversation with his dad and got such a


    conclusion. Charlie didn''t know what to say.


    Larry blinked his eyes, shrugged his shoulders, gloating and said, "Boys have to yield to girls!"


    Charlie red at his son and looked away.


    His mobile phone rang at this time. He hurriedly took it out to have a look, but the caller ID was not


    what he expected, but Simon.


    After the short phone call, Charlie kept that posture and seemed to be waiting for something. He


    cast a deep nce at his son, who was still ying Lego, and that two short arms were working


    hard.


    When the Lego was almost half- built, Charlie suddenly stood up.


    He lifted his foot and kicked the lower part of the Lego, and then it fell down in an instant on the


    carpet.


    Larry''s small mouth opened into an "0" shape. In the surprised look of Larry, Charlie walked to the


    entrance with satisfaction. Without taking his suit jacket, he directly said something to Aunt Lee and


    changed his shoes to go out.


    At the same time, in the apartment buiding on the other side.


    Emily was holding a ss of water and looking at Wendy who was bending down toy the corner


    of the bed sheet, "Wendy, are you really not going back tonight?"


    "Yes..." Wendy nodded.


    "Something wrong with you and Mr. Hogg?" Emily asked uncertainly. Emily originally thought Wendy


    was just joking at that moment, but to her surprise, Wendy really did not intend to go back.


    "We''re fine..." Wendy shook her head. She was just very angry with him!


    The door of the bedroom was knocked, and Simon''s tall figure leaned against the door frame. He


    had just returned from the hospital. When Wendy thought that she upied his bed, she couldn''t


    help but feel a little sorry. "Oh, Dr. Chin, I''m really sorry. I came to bother you like this so that you


    have to go out..."


    Although Simon could sleep in the study room or the couch, it''s still not very convenient, so Simon


    would go outter and let them two girlfriends to sleep in the apartment.


    "It''s okay!" Simon said with a smile, "There are staff dormitories in the hospital, I used to often sleep


    there while I''m workingte!"

    "Thank you!" Wendy said gratefully.


    "You''re wee!" Simon waved his hand and walked in. He took the ss from Emily''s hand and


    said, "I''ll add you some more hot water!"


    After that, he turned around and went out of the bedroom. After entering the kitchen, he dialed a


    number and asked immediately when the phone was picked up, "Hey, it''s been almost forty


    minutes, you haven''t arrived yet?"


    Aftering back from the hospital, Simon immediately called Charlie when he heard that Wendy


    was going to stay in the apartment.


    Then, he had been waiting, but there was no knock on the door. This time was no longer the rush


    hour, and they were living in the riverside area, the distance was not far between them, Charlie


    should be here more than ten minutes.


    "I''m already here." Charlie said in a deep voice.


    "You''re here?" Simon was surprised. In order not to disturb the two girls in the bedroom, he walked


    lightly to the entrance. After looking out through the peephole, he frowned and said, "Why haven''t I


    seen youing up!"


    "I''m downstairs," Charlie said slowly.


    "Why?" Simon had an indescribable expression on his face.


    "Let''s just wait." Charlie said and hung up the phone.


    cing the phone in the storage space in the car, Charlie leaned back in his chair, ced one hand


    on the steering wheel, and tapped rhythmically on it with his index finger.


    There were cars parked in front and behind the Land Rover, but he did not seem to be in a hurry to


    go up. Through the half-opened window, he looked out at the night sky that was blocked by the dark


    clouds.


    After two ps of thunder, first, a few bean-sized raindrops fell, and then it poured down.


    The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and there was a thinyer of water vapor between the


    high-rise buildings in the distance, making them hazy and blurred.


    Charlie closed the car window, pulled out the car key, and grabbed the umbre on the side of the


    door.


    However, after getting off the car, he didn''t mean to open the umbre. Instead, he stood by the car


    for two or three minutes, then slowly walked towards the apartment building and threw the umbre


    in his hand into the trash can.


    Emily was sitting on the couch, watching the rain pattering outside the window. She could not help


    but exim, "It''s raining so hard! I bet after this rain, the weather will get hotter!"


    "Yes!" Wendy also looked over. She turned to Simon and said, "Dr. Chin, why don''t you leaveter?"


    "Hum." Simon smiled and replied.


    But in his heart, he thought that he didn''t need to leaveter. At the same time, his eyes secretly


    drifted to the entrance.


    "Knock knock knock--"


    While they were discussing the rain, there was a sudden knock on the door.


    Wendy and Emily were both stunned. Beside them, Simon''s eyes brightened.


    He''sing!
