Chapter 598


    It must be a lie to tell him that she did not have a hard time, so Wendy nodded honestly.


    Charlie was suddenly burdened by guilt, feeling it heart-breaking to imagine how she had gone


    through the rocky times. He felt so sorry for her that he apologized, "I''m sorry!"


    Wendy shook her head and raised to kiss him, stopping him from apologizing further.


    It had been such a long time since they parted, so how could they be willing to separate from each


    other?


    Charlie, cupping her face, kissed her deeply until both of them were out of breath. They only paused


    for two or three seconds before they hugged and kissed again. They finally found a way to express


    their yearning.


    They kissed for more than half an hour, and finally, they ended the kiss reluctantly.


    Wendy touched his delicate lips with her finger and said in a soft and tender voice, "Dear, don''t say


    sorry to me again. I only feel grateful that you coulde back safely!"


    Charlie nodded, gazing deep into her eyes.


    His big hand covered her round belly, feeling it a great pleasure to have a baby girl soon, and


    asked, "She about nine months old, right?"


    "Yes..." Wendy softly replied. Her hand covered his as she muttered, "I thought that you wouldn''t be


    able to see her being born!"


    Charlie also thought so. He curled his lips and gently touched her belly by his palm, "Fortunately, I


    didn''t miss it."


    Otherwise, he might regret it for the rest of his life!


    He missed his son''s birth, which had left some emotional shadows in his heart, and because of this,


    he always felt very guilty for her. If he let her go through the pain of delivery alone again, then he


    really could not absolve himself from the me.


    "Honey, everytime I say something bad about you, our daughter will protest. Can you believe it?


    Feel her movement!" Wendy put his big palm on her belly side and lowered her head, deliberately


    saying, "Leni, your papa is a bad guy. He let me wait for such a long time for him toe back."


    As soon as she finished speaking, he felt a kick in her belly.


    Charlie, joyfully surprised, raised his eyebrows high and smiled. He greeted his baby girl in his belly


    and said, "Leni, dad''s back!"


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    As if she was responding to him, he could feel that she kicked Wendy''s belly again.


    Wendy looked at the look of concentration on his face, feeling touched and relieved. She nestled


    back into his arms and said, "Honey, I didn''t attend the funeral for you. In the past four months, I


    haven''t been to the cemetery. Even if everyone said that the car was destroyed and you were dead,


    I still firmly believed that you woulde back! Now, it has proved that I was right. You''re back, safe


    and sound!"


    She was not the only one who felt delighted to get what she had lost. He felt the same way.


    Charlie pushed her against his chin and said in a calm but slightly trembling voice, "I was terrified."


    Wendy''s arms tightened about his waist while she listened quietly. She had never taken the initiative


    to ask, but waited for him to tell her. In the morning, she saw a shallow scar on his face side, but


    she did not ask him what had happened and pretended not to see it.


    Only Charlie knew how difficult it was for him to survive and appear in front of her intact after such a


    terrible car ident!


    "On the wedding day, I drove to the church. But when I arrived there, the staff there said that they


    didn''t call me. I noticed that something was wrong. Unfortunately, no matter how careful I was, I still


    had the ident because I was in a hurry to go back in time to attend our wedding ceremony in the


    hotel!"


    Charlie slowly described the situation he had experienced, "After starting the car, I found that


    someone was hiding inside. Just like as I thought, it was Madge. She hid behind my car when I got


    off it. I wanted to stop the car and drove her away, but I found that the brakes were not working so


    that the car could not slow down. Madge, totally out of her mind, climbed over from the back to the


    front seat to grab the steering wheel. She imed she wanted to die together with me and put some


    bombs in the back of the car. The car had beenpletely out of my control. I could only try my


    best to avoid more damage and hit the pier of the road bridge..."


    Wendy nervously pursed the corners of her mouth and hugged him even tighter, trembling with fear


    when she heard all of this.


    "When I woke up, I found myself curling in the seat, and I couldn''t move half of my body. I watched


    Madge climb down from the co-pilot seat. The front cover was covered with smoke, and I knew that


    there would be an explosion soon. Once the explosion happened, it would ignite the bombs


    behind... I was very afraid. Not only because I might die, but because I was worried about you,


    Larry, and Leni. What kind of miserable lives would you have if I died there?"


    Charlie asked himself in a hoarse voice. Even at this time, he still felt scared. He tightened his arms


    around Wendy and continued, "I had no other choices but to jump into the river in the moment of the


    explosion with all my strength left. Even if I feared water and my body kept sinking, I told myself that


    I had to live to see you again..."


    "Did you jump into the river?" Wendy''s eyes widened.


    He didn''t know how to swim, but when he was in a life-and-death situation, he could only risk his life


    to make a bet. It required a lot of courage!


    "Yes." Charlie nodded and smiled at her. "I was luckily treated with mercy by fate — I didn''t drown


    and was saved! I only remembered that I struggled in the river for a long time, butter I choked on


    water and lost consciousness. Only when I woke up again, I learned that I had been in aa for


    four months!"


    "It was a viger from a remote vige who saved me. He happened to go fishing in the river that


    day. However, I was never awake since I was brought back to his home. The viger was very poor,


    and he was having trouble putting food on his family''s table. Thus, they didn''t have any money to


    save me. Besides, the vige doctor said that I was in a vegetative state and could not be saved!


    Thank goodness, the vigers'' father, who used to be a traditional Chinese medicine, made every


    possible effort to save me. Then, a miracle happened—I was saved."


    "There were not too many physical wounds left from the car ident. I protected my head with my


    left arm when the ident happened, so the nerves there were hurt by its broken bones. My left


    arm may not be able to exert as much strength as before." Charlie stretched his left arm forward,


    appearing a little upset. But as if he was afraid of being disliked by her, he quickly announced


    affirmatively, "But even if I have only one strong arm, dear, I can still lift you up!"


    Wendy reached out and held his arm. "It doesn''t matter. Whether you have a broken arm or a


    broken leg, it doesn''t matter. I love you, always!"


    "As long as you are safe and sound ande back to me alive, I''m satisfied!"


    They gazed into each other''s eyes, understanding their strong attachment to each other, and could


    not help kissing each other again.


    It was a passionate kiss, much intenser than theirst long kiss.


    Gradually, their desire for sex became sopelling that they could hardly breathe freely. Wendy,


    with her arms around his shoulder, could feel the change of his private part.


    Charlie touched her bulging belly between them and was fully aware that they could not make love


    so he stopped in time, gasping for air with his eyes closed to suppress his burning desire.


    Wendy alsoy prone on his chest and panted a little. Both of them were trying hard to fight down


    an impulse to have sex.


    "Ah!"


    Wendy suddenly thought of something and hurriedly looked up. "I was so happy that I forgot to tell


    our families that you''vee back!"


    They had spent the entire day together, immersed in the joy of the reunion, and forgot to tell the


    news to their families.


    "Your dad thought you were dead. I heard from Aunt E that he rarely went out these days. The


    whole time, he stayed in the study and cried a lot with your mother''s pictures in his hands. Only


    when Larry was with him would he smile a little!" Wendy said excitedly, "He must be wild with joy


    upon knowing that you survived!"


    Charlie stopped her from getting up and said, "Don''t worry. It''ste. Let''s tell them tomorrow!"


    "Yes!" Wendy responded meekly.


    It was indeed toote - it was almost 12 o''clock now. If the elders of the Hogg and Gray family were


    informed at this time, they would definitelye over tonight. At the thought of this, Wendy became


    a little selfish and did not want to spread the news now because she would like to spend this night


    with him only.


    They hugged each other in silence for a while, and Wendy blushed and said, "Uh, I want to go to


    the bathroom!"


    In fact, she wanted to long ago, but she did not do it, for she could not bear to leave his arms.


    However, she could not hold on any longer.


    "I''ll keep youpany." Charlie curled his lips.


    He pulled up Wendy and took her to the bathroom. When she closed the bathroom door, she could


    still see the outline of his tall figure under the light through the frosted ss and felt at ease.


    Charlie stood outside. If she hadn''t been shy, he would have followed her into the bathroom. He


    heard the sound of water rushing to the toilet and took out his hand from his trouser pocket, waiting


    to hold her hand.


    But all of a sudden, there came a panic cry from inside, "Honey-"


    "What''s wrong?" Charlie pushed open the bathroom door with a nervous look.


    Inside, Wendy was holding the toilet with one hand and covered her belly with the other hand. Her


    eyshes trembled as she looked at him. "I, I think I''m going to give birth..."
