Chapter 15: “But I haven’t graduated yet.”
Since Rex had spoken, Kincaid naturally did not dare to say anything else. His face was pale, but he still forced himself to smile. “Wendy, you…… take good care of Mr. Gavyn in the future.”
“I see.”
Wendy’s heart was a mess. Seeing that Clare had sent Kincaid away, she lowered her head.
At some point, Rex had lit a cigarette. Surrounded by smoke, he narrowed his eyes at Wendy and asked, “Are you reluctant to part with him?”
Wendy raised her eyelids. “Daddy seems unhappy.”
“You know very well.” Rex snorted and quietly put away Wendy’s ID card and household register. “Do you know why Kincaid wants me to marry Jenny?”
Looking at Rex’s calm eyes, Wendy lowered her head. “My sister is more outstanding, and Dad likes her too……”
“Wrong.”
Rex knocked on Wendy’s head with his hand, his face covered with a layer of frost. “He wants to put Jenny by my side. What a nice plan.”
“…… …… what does that mean?”
Wendy felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Had her father not arranged it this way because he liked her sister?
“It is the literal meaning.” Rex didn’t want to say more. He directly asked Clare to take Wendy into the lounge. He had to deal with some business and would take her to register for marriage.
Wendy followed Clare into the lounge, her hands drenched in a cold sweat.
Rex’s actions were too fast, and his arrangements were very orderly. Was she really going to marry him later?
Clare poured her a cup of coffee and was about to leave when Wendy suddenly called out to him.
She asked anxiously, “Clare, do you know what your president meant just now?”
“This……” Clare hesitated.
However, he recalled the video he had previously watched, and his gaze landed on the bruise on Wendy’s arm. It had probably been pinched by Jenny.
Feeling compassion for her, he leaned over and whispered, “Mrs. Gavyn, your sister is a businessman. Mr. Gavyn will never choose such a smart businessman to be his bedmate.”
After saying that, Clare turned around and left, not caring if Wendy had understood him or not.
Looking at the steaming hot coffee on the table, Wendy’s pupils abruptly contracted.
“It was actually because of this reason?!”
“Does Dad want my sister to marry into the Gavyn family and then let her quietly do tricks in the company?”
Wendy’s body slowly turned cold. Her sister was so intelligent and ambitious that it was definitely possible.
Perhaps she gradually understood why Rex had chosen her.
If he had to abide by the promise of his deceased father, it would be safest to keep someone like her, who had no sense of danger, by his side.
Remembering how miserable her fate was, Wendy sighed. She picked up the coffee on the table and drank it in one gulp.
It was already 10 o’clock in the morning when Rex was done with his work. Wendy had almost finished all the biscuits in the lounge.
When Rex pushed the door open, he saw Wendy leaning on the coffee table and eating cream biscuits like a child.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
Rex glanced at her with disdain. “Don’t eat anymore. Let’s go to the Civil Affairs Bureau.”
“Ahem, ahem.”
Wendy was choked by his words. She stared at his cold and ruthless face with wide eyes and quickly went to get a cup of water from the coffee table.
Rex’s eyebrows furrowed into knots.
She gulped down a few mouthfuls of water before swallowing hard. Her eyes reddened as she looked up and asked, “Are we going to register for marriage now? But I haven’t graduated yet……”
