Chapter 268
Chapter 268
After finally sending the father and son away, Wendy had a casual breakfast and then packed up her things.
When it was almost noon, she went to the front desk to check out. Because there was only one suitcase, she took a taxi to Emily's place. It was an apartment building by the river, with a very superior location and a good view.
When the taxi was approaching the neighborhood, she saw Emily waiting at the door from a distance.
No car was allowed in the neighborhood. Wendy paid the fare, while the luggage in the trunk had already been brought down by Emily. Emily pulled her and went inside excitedly.
The house was not very big, with two bedrooms, one living room and one restaurant, one kitchen, and one bathroom, fully furnished. The first thing Wendy feel when entered the house was warmth. Looking at the layout of the house, she can already guess that it should have been made by Emily, as most of it was to her liking.
It's been four years, and they had not lived together for a long time.
Both Wendy and Emily were very excited. There was a feeling of being back in college, but they both knew it was long gone.
She told Emily about Charlie and his son's visit to her last night. Upon hearing that, Emily was surprised. "They came to the hotel to find you?" "Yes!" Wendy nodded.
When she saw Larry at that time, she was also surprised.
"I've seen that child twice. He has a cold face and doesn't like to talk to others. I didn't expect that he was very close to you!"
"Larry is very cute!" Wendy couldn't help but say.
While Larry was indeed somewhat cool, he was cute in her eyes. And when she thought about him, she began to miss the feeling of holding the little boy in her arms.
Emily saw her expression in a slight trance and asked hesitantly, "Wendy, seeing Mr. Hogg again, are you okay?"
"I'm fine..." Wendy shook her head.
"That's good!" Emily felt relieved and gently held her hand. "I didn't know much about what happened between you two at that time. You left so suddenly. I didn't even know the news until later. However, Mr. Hogg doesn't seem to know me either. In the past four years, although we haven't seen each other, he always just thought of me as Simon's woman."
"He has nothing to do with me anymore..." Wendy said in a low voice.
Emily put her arm around Wendy's shoulder and said, "Wendy, let's enjoy being single together!"
"Okay." Wendy smiled.
After the taxi pulled up, Wendy shaded her hand over her eyes and looked at the towering buildings and regretted it for a moment.
She kind of didn't want to get out of the car and was dragged down hard by the person next to her.
The one who dragged Wendy was the female colleague who had had dinner with her before. Her name was Coral. Since a lot of work needs to be communicated between the two of them, they've gotten to know each other quite well.
Coral told Wendy that she had an interview and asked if Wendy had anything else to do. If not, Coral wanted Wendy to go with her. Wendy said yes immediately, she just didn't expect that the final destination she would arrive at would be Hogg's Group.
"Wendy, you promised!" Coral refused to let go.
"I told you when we had dinner for the first time, that our magazine wanted to interview Mr. Hogg, but we got rejected many times! However, we didn't give up and called Mr. Hogg to invite him! Guess what? I didn't expect that yesterday I called him and said that I was the editor of Economic and Trade Update and wanted to interview him. I didn't get my hopes up yesterday, but after I hung up the phone, someone informed me that Mr. Hogg accepted our invitation!"
"..." Wendy frowned.
She was annoyed that she didn't ask more questions about the interviewer. If she knew, she would never agree.
"Since we're already here, let's go in!" Coral could tell that Wendy was backed out and quickly dragged her into the building. "Wendy, I can't do this interview myself! Mr. Hogg is so powerful, I'm afraid to face him alone. I need someone by my side!"
Coral didn't lie to her, she just hid something in her mind.
Because that day at dinner, she saw the young master of the Hogg family seem to be very familiar with Wendy, she thought she could ask more questions if Mr. Hogg saw Wendy there.
Since they had made an appointment, once explained, someone offered to lead them to the elevator.
In the past, Wendy used to go to Hogg's Group because of her work, and everything around her seemed to have a long-lost familiarity, but at the same time a little bit of strangeness, strangeness
may have come from these four years.
She tried hard to suppress the fluctuations in her heart.
When they were waiting for the elevator, the phone rang. It was a local landline number.
"Miss Wendy?"
"It's me!" Wendy was confused.
The other side quickly answered, "This is XX Hotel. You checked in here before, and now there is an international express mail here. Are you still in Ice city? Does this need to be forwarded to you or you will come over to pick it up?"
Wendy immediately remembered that she had forgotten an important document when she returned, so she asked a colleague to help her mail It was just that the international express delivery was slow, and the adress she left at that time was the hotel.
"I'm afraid I don't have time today. Can you put it in storage for me and I'll pick it up tomorrow?" Wendy asked with some embarrassment.
"Of course!" The person on the other side was kind.
"Thank you!"
Wendy hung up the phone, and the elevator door was slowly opened.
On the top floor, the moment the elevator doors pulled open again, the exclusive elevator on the opposite side also just happened to close. A tall figure just walked out, wearing a pair of Chanel flat shoes, a beige dress with matching shawl, and her curly hair slightly raised as she was walking, which made her look very charming.
Wendy's heart skipped a beat.
It was Madge...
Sure enough, all the previous ones still can't avoid meeting again.
Sometimes the world is big, and sometimes it is small. The more you tend to avoid something, the more it will bump into you, like destiny. Fate doesn't give you what you want.
Although it's surprising meeting Madge in Hogg's Group, it was not that surprising. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Because Charlie and she had separated, he didn't want to continue to play relationship games with her, so he turned back to choose Madge, who was deeply favored by his father. It had been four years, and he already had a son, which meant that Charlie and Madge might have been married long ago...
When she learned about the father-son relationship between Larry and Charlie, she actually had a guess, but she just didn't want to think about it.
"Wendy, did you see that?" Coral, who was walking next to her, came over and whispered to her, "The woman in front of us, tall and fit, is Mr. Hogg's fiancee! I have to say, she's really pretty, mostly because of her temperament!"
There was nothing to refute. Madge was indeed very beautiful and elegant. She's the kind of person you'd put in a crowd and saw right away. Wendy had never denied this point, it's just that...
Fiancee?
Wendy couldn't help but be stunned.
