Chapter 574


    He looked as if he had been standing here for a long time.


    Wendy felt warm in her heart. She closed the study door and took the initiative to put her hand in his


    big hand.


    Because she was holding the rosewood box Gilbert gave her in her other hand, and Gilbert''s words


    were still ringing in her ears, she took every step carefully, for fear that she would identally slip


    down.


    Seeing that she kept her head down all the time, Charlie pursed his lips. He thought that she had


    just been wronged inside, so he frowned more tightly and asked in a low voice, "Wendy, what bad


    words did my dad say to you? Did he make things difficult for you?"


    "No..." Wendy shook her head nkly, then looked worried and asked nervously, "Charlie, what is


    the family punishment of your Hogg''s Group..."


    Charlie was shocked.


    After hearing the whole story from her mouth, he stared at the jade bracelet in the box. When he


    was born, his mother died out of massive postpartum bleeding. He didn''t even have a memory of


    her mother. He could only imagine and miss his mother in the photo. He didn''t know anything about


    the jade bracelet. When he touched it with his fingers, he couldn''t calm down for a while.


    When he looked up and saw that Wendy''s whole face was wrinkled because of worry, he couldn''t


    helpughing. "There''s no such a thing. He is teasing you!" "Really?"


    "Of course."


    Wendy breathed a sigh of relief and put her heart back to her stomach, but she still held the box


    tightly. Looking back in the direction of the study, she blinked her eyes and said, "In fact, I think your


    father seems to like me very much..."


    "He definitely doesn''t like you more than I do." Charlie''s thin lips curled up.


    There were not many opportunities to hear such sweet words from him. Wendy''s heart could not


    help but swing. Although she knew that the asion was not suitable, she still did not restrain


    herself. Wendy looked around and saw that there were no servants. She took the initiative to kiss


    him.


    The family of three stayed at the old house for dinner.


    On the long dining table, there were only Gilbert and his wife besides them. Ewan had not stepped


    into the old house for a long time. It seemed that Gilbert was very angry with him because of the


    business crimes. Now, he bought a ticket to the night after Madge was sent abroad. E, who was


    opposite him, seemed to be very upset.


    Although it was not very lively, the atmosphere was quite harmonious. The servants next to him


    noticed that the master seemed to be in a good mood today. Although his serious face did not show


    much emotion, he drank two sses of wine in a row.


    After dinner, Charlie took the initiative to follow Gilbert to the study.

    The door closed, and it seemed that the father and son had not had such a chance to spend time


    alone for some time. Gilbert went to the desk and sat down, suddenly raised his hand and mmed


    it on the table with a "bang", making a loud noise.


    Charlie seemed to have expected this, so he was not surprised at all. He justzily pulled out the


    chair opposite Gilbert and sat down.


    "Unfilial son!"


    Gilbert''s eyes widened as he angrily asked, "You''re deliberately hiding it from me, aren''t you? If I


    hadn''t picked up Larry here today and heard him call her little grandfather, I wouldn''t have known


    that Wendy was Kim''s daughter!"


    "Mm." Charlie lifted his hand and caressed his chin, not denying it.


    "You''re trying to piss me off, aren''t you?" Gilbert was furious. "Don''t think that I don''t know what you


    are nning. You deliberately don''t let me know. You want me to ept her before I found her


    background and then fight with me in turn. Am I such a mercenary person?"


    Charlie raised his eyebrows and said bluntly, "Now that you know she''s the daughter of the Gray


    family, you''re happy to ept this marriage?"


    Embarrassment was written all over Gilbert''s face.


    Indeed, he had learned from his grandchild who his little grandfather was. He had called Kim to


    seek confirmation.


    Only then did he know the truth of Wendy''s identity. Although when Charlie was involved in the


    commercial crime, his prejudice against Wendy had been reduced a lot, and he even unconsciously


    competed for it in front of Chase. If she was the daughter of the Gray family, it was something worth


    celebrating for the Hogg family. The previous marriage would also be existed in another form.


    Gilbert felt a little embarrassed. He shouted angrily, "Who did I do this for?"


    Charlie''s hands spread out, but he didn''t show any sign of being grateful.


    There was a moment of silence in the study. Gilbert paused for a while and asked slowly with a


    solemn expression, "Did Madge really do those things?"


    "Yes." Charlie nodded.


    "I really didn''t expect that! I''ve always wanted her to be my most suitable daughter-inw. But who


    knows..." Gilbert frowned and shook his head repeatedly at the end of his words. His expression


    was full of chagrin.


    She ordered people to hit Larry and kidnap Wendy, causing Charlie to be sent to the emergency


    room. Just these two events involved his son and grandson, either of which was unforgivable for


    Gilbert. Moreover, she had secretly found someone to frame Charlie up for the business crimes.


    Finally, Ewan took the me. His two sons were involved in the matter!!


    Charlie snorted coldly and said, "It''s all because you were blind then!"


    An unfilial son!


    Gilbert almost fainted from anger. Knowing that he was in the wrong, he managed to hold back the


    words that were about toe out of his mouth.


    Charlie put his hands on the armrest and got up. When he was about to leave the study, his


    footsteps suddenly stopped. He turned around and looked at his father, who was leaning back on


    the chair with his hands crossed. He seemed to suddenly think of something and said slowly, "Dad,


    I seem to remember that you said that unless you die, you''ll never agree to marry Wendy into the


    Hogg''s Group."


    Peng!


    As the door closed, the sound of an inkstone hitting the door could be heard.


    When the three of them left the old house, Gilbert was the one who sent them out personally.


    "Drive slowly on the road!" Gilbert put his hands behind his back.


    "We''ll." Charlie answered.


    Following which, Gilbert handed over something. "Take this."


    Seeing clearly what he was holding, both Charlie and Wendy were slightly shocked.


    The two of them were familiar with a blood-red household register. It was something that every


    family had.


    "You can''t wait until the child is born and your parents'' marriage are still illegal. Hurry up and get


    your marriage certificate, lest othersugh at you and say that our Hogg family is irresponsible!"


    After Gilbert finished, he nced at the two of them. "And the wedding, if you don''t mind if you''re


    pregnant, I suggest you bring up your schedule as soon as possible. I just checked it out. There are


    two good days in the next month and next month. I''ll have to date Brother the Gray family in these


    two days to finalize all these things!"


    After hearing his words, they looked at each other in disbelief.


    It turned out that after Charlie left the study at that time, Gilbert stayed in the study alone for a long


    time to check the calendar for an auspicious wedding day.
