Chapter 11
Wendy Lim stiffened instantly.
She was sure that it couldn't be Yolanda Linn’s foot!
She looked up and saw Charlie Hogg was cutting the beef slowly with his head lowered. The platinum cufflinks on his wrist were shining. He responded to Yolanda Lim once in a while when she mentioned the contents of the document. With a smile in his face, he seemed to know nothing about what had happened under the table.
The man was really mild on the outside but wild on the inside... Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Wendy Lim clenched her fists and glared at him.
The warning in her eyes seemed to be useless. His foot was still climbing up recklessly, passing her knees and reaching to the higher parts of her legs...
She stood up suddenly.
Charlie Hogg and Yolanda Lim, sitting on the opposite side, looked up at her. The former was calm and relaxed, while the latter looked surprised. "Dear sister, what's wrong with you?"
Wendy Lim flushed but she couldn't reveal Charlie Hogg’s tricks, "I... I want to go to the bathroom!"
She took off the napkin and headed to the bathroom.
After washing her hands, Wendy Lim splashed some water on her face. The restaurant equipped with great air condition and it was really cool inside. However, she looked like a high fever patient now in the mirror.
Her shopping bags were still in her seat so Wendy Lim couldn’t slip away. She chose to squat beside a trash bin and took out her phone to play the game Snakes Subsonic. Thinking about Charlie Hogg and Yolanda Lim might have finished their meals, Wendy Lim went back to the table.
Yolanda Lim wiped her mouth with a napkin elegantly, "Sister, why have you been to the bathroom for such a long time? Charlie and I have already finished!"
"It's okay. I'm full." Wendy Lim nodded in agreement.
They got out of the restaurant and were ready to go home separately. However, Yolanda Lim suddenly stepped forward to hold Wendy Lim’s arm and said to Charlie Hogg coquettishly, "Charlie, I didn't drive my car today. Would you mind giving us a ride? My sister is carrying such a heavy bag."
Wendy Lim knew what Yolanda Lim was thinking about. She was only a pawn who had been taken advantage of.
Wendy Lim shook the light bag in her hand and said, "I don’t want to..."
"Let's go down to the basement to get my car together."
Charlie Hogg spoke louder than Wendy Lim. Then he pushed the elevator button.
Yolanda Lim's face lit up, and she thought of her own plan. "Okay, Charlie, shall we send my sister home first?" His car was a white Land Rover. Yolanda Lim pushed Wendy Lim onto the backseat of the car rudely and slammed the door. Then, Yolanda Lim sat on the passenger seat in the front, and her eyes fixed on Charlie Hogg who was driving the car.
Wendy Lim was very satisfied with the seat arrangement. She wouldn't worry about that the man would reach out his foot to her again.
An old street with old buildings standing on its two sides appeared gradually in their vision. There was not even a traffic light. The old street became narrower and narrower. From the rearview mirror, Wendy Lim could read the surprise in the man’s eyes, who seemed to say to her, "You live in such an awful place".
"Please stop at the front intersection!" She pointed at the road and said casually.
After Wendy Lim got off the car and shut the door, Yolanda Lim pretended to be nice and said, "Goodbye, dear sister!"
Wendy Lim turned around and left with her bag.
She didn’t have enough time to see her grandma. She had to go to work in the bar after putting the shopping bag at home. Time was so precious for her, even a minute or a second. She had spend so much precious time on the two annoying people!
Charlie Hogg didn't start the white Land Rover again until the beautiful image of Wendy Lim disappeared into the corridor. Not long after the car entered the main road, Charlie Hogg turned on the right turn signal and stopped at the roadside. He seemed to have run out of all his patience, and said with a cold voice, "I have some urgent things to do in my company. I’m afraid you need to call a taxi back home."
"...Charlie, what?"
"Get off my car, or I’ll kick you down."
Staring at the car disappearing in sight, Yolanda Lim went mad.
