Chapter 507
After some time, Francis apanied Chase to the bathroom. As soon as the door of the private
room was closed, Eduardo immediately put down the tea cup and whispered to Wendy who was
sitting next to him, "Wendy, what do you think of Francis Wace?"
"Mr. Wace has good characters and is truly a gentleman." Wendy gave a pertinentment.
Not only was Francis good-natured and gentlemanly, but he was also handsome, tall, and strong.
He was really an ideal man in the hearts of women.
Hearing her words, Eduardo immediately cheered up and nodded in agreement. "Well...l have the
same idea as you! Do you think it''s possible for you to be with him?"
Wendy was drinking a cup of tea out of thirst. When she heard thest sentence, she almost spat
out the tea.
Just now, after Wendy reminded him of her rtionship with Charlie, the old master did not say
anything further. She thought that he might have epted the status quo. Unexpectedly, he
deliberately took advantage of the absence of Francis and Chase to ask about her thoughts.
Wendy took out a piece of tissue and wiped her mouth. She emphasized, "Grandpa, Charlie and I
already have a child..."
This matter had been brought up during the two old men''s chat.
When Eduardo heard about this, he was slightly surprised. But he was an open-minded old man.
He would not judge the matters of young people on the basis of outdated values. At this time, he
simply waved to Wendy and said, "It''s okay. Didn''t Chase say that Francis doesn''t care about it at
all?"
"Grandpa..." Wendy did not know whether tough or cry because of the old master''s "open-
mindedness".
The door of the private room was pushed open again, and Francis and Chase returned.
Outside the window, the sun was setting. The two old men''s meeting ended there. Wendy stood up
to help Eduardo walking.
Francis, who was sitting opposite to Wendy, did the same thing, but his eyes were fixed on her.
"Miss Lim, let me walk you out!"
"Uh...No need..." Wendy shook her head.
With a smile on his face, Chase took the opportunity to say, "Eduardo, we haven''t seen each other
for a long time, and it''s not enough for us just to drink some tea here. How about going to my house
together?"
"Good idea!" Eduardo nodded happily.
Over the years, Eduardo had been living abroad for health preservation, while Chase had been
living in Hong Kong. For this reason, they seldom had opportunities to meet each other. What''s
more, both of them were very old now, and there would be less and less opportunities for them to
talk to each other. Naturally, they were willing to kill some more time in Chase''s house.
Hearing this, Chase turned to Wendy with a smile and said, "Little girl, let Francis drive you back. I''ll
take your grandfather''s car!"
Wendy opened her mouth and was about to refuse him. Eduardo''s car was spacious. She could sit
in the front passenger seat even if Chase was also inside the car. What''s more, she could call a taxi
to go home directly as an alternative. However, before she could say anything, Eduardo had already
said, "Wendy, you don''t have to go here and there with me now. You mentioned that you would go
back home in the evening. Just let Francis drive you home!"
"Grandpa!" Wendy frowned.
Eduardo pulled her two steps to the side, lowered his voice, and said, "Listen to me. Grandpa has
experienced the joys and hardships of life. There are many choices in life. You are still young. Don''t
be anxious about your marriage. What if there is still a more suitable man waiting for you?"
"I..." Wendy felt helpless, as if she was having a headache.
Eduardo held her hand gently and interrupted her words. "I know what you''re thinking about. Just
take it as a favor for Grandpa. Don''t reject Mr. Wace''s kindness. Follow my advice!"
In the end, Wendy was almost forced into Francis''s car, just like a little duck chased into the cage by
the duck raiser.
Although Wendy thought that she could easily find an excuse to let Francis'' car stop somewhere
halfway, it was not easy to carry her thoughts out. How could Francis be so willing to let her go with
a simple excuse like this? He used the words of his grandfather and Wendy''s grandfather as a more
convincing excuse to insist on sending her to the destination. In private he also wanted to do so as
apetitor of Charlie.
Wendy could only pray silently that the two of them would not be met by Charlie.
The Murphy''s Law was always there. When you needed something the most, it would definitely
disappear. After Francis slowly parked the car at the gate of the vi, Wendy closed the door, and
immediately saw a white Land Rover driving over from afar.
At this time, she only wanted to run into the vi as quickly as possible, but it was toote! It would
turn out to be a clumsy denial resulting in self-exposure if she did so.
She had no choice but to brace herself up, and stand where she was.
The Land Rover quickly drove past her, and then stopped in the courtyard. Charlie then jumped
down from the driver''s seat. Holding the car keys in his hand, he looked past her and nced at the
direction in which the car was driving away.
"What''s going on?"
Seeing the wrinkles between his eyebrows, Wendy''s heart was in a state of panic.
She ran to him in a hurry, pulled up one of his arms tenderly, and lean her head on his chest. She
then raised her head purposefully and asked, "Charlie, I have a piece of good news and a piece of
bad news to tell you. Which one do you want to listen to first?" "Good news," Charlie said after
pondering for a moment.
"My grandfather''s attitude towards me has changed quite a lot!" Theers of Wendy''s lips curled
up.
Hearing this, Charlie raised his eyebrows and then said, "Bad news."
"Uh..." Wendy stuttered. She peeped at his facial expression stealthily, and continued with an
awkward smile, "It''s a coincidence. What do you think of that? Grandpa and Old Master Wace are
good friends. Today, I apanied Grandpa to see his old friend. I hadn''t expected that it turned
out to be Old Master Wace. And then...You must have guessed it...Yeah!"
Charlie gritted his teeth and let out a cold snort from his nose.
Of course, he could guess it out that the old man had been coveting Wendy and wanting her to
be his granddaughter-inw!
Wendy put the other arm around his strong waist and tried tofort him. "I didn''t intend to promise
Francis to send me back, but my grandfather insisted. He said..."
Realizing that she might have made a little mistake, Wendy hurriedly stopped saying.
"What did your grandfather say?" Charlie narrowed his eyes.
"Are you sure you want to listen to it?" Wendy asked hesitantly. Seeing that his eye expressions
were full of pressure, she said cautiously, "My grandfather said that there are many choices in my
life. I am still young. I must not worry about my marriage. There might be a more suitable man
waiting..."
As expected, Wendy saw Charlie''s face darkened after she finished speaking.
Wendy wanted tough, but dared not do so. She put her face on Charlie''s chest and shook his
body, just like a spoiled child. "Charlie, don''t think too much of it. Grandpa just said it casually. He
actually didn''t want me to reject kindness of Old Master Wace!"
"Uh-huh." The corners of Charlie''s lips twitched.

"Wendy...Daddy..."
Fortunately, little Larry ran out of the vi and helped them to get rid of the embarrassing
atmosphere.
The night was long and dark. Wendy walked out of the bathroom and saw a naked man with a bath
towel around his waist lying on the bed. This man had an arm on the side of his head, and his deep
eyes were looking out of the window at the night.
She moved her eyes away from his strong pectoral muscles with difficulty, lifted the quilt, andy
down on the bed from the other side of the quilt.
Seeing that Charlie did not take the initiative to talk to her, Wendy turned over and rolled into his
arms by "coincidence”. She poked his strong abdominal muscles with her finger. "Charlie, are you
unhappy?"
