Purchased A Mr. Right

Chapter 77

It was in a karaoke room that was filed with the sound of singing and chatting. Wendy's phone rang. She walked to the end of the corridor and answered it.

He seemed to have just finished his work because she heard the sound of closing a folder on the line. "Where are you now? The hospital or home? I'll pick you up."

He asked directly as usual.

Wendy bit her lips and replied, "I'm afraid I can't leave now..." Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

"Why?" Charlie answered in a deep voice.

"I have a dinner party with my colleagues today, so we came here for a karaoke session after dinner..."

"When will you finish?"

"I've just arrived here, so it should be eleven o'clock at least!" Wendy looked at her watch and answered. She paused for a while and added, "Everyone here was in a high spirit now, so I can't leave at this time. Besides, this is the first time for me to participate in a team- building activity in the company... Shall I meet you tomorrow night?"

In the past, she had to do a part-time job in the bar, and she was not available even in the weekends. So, she had never participated in any team building activities.

This time, she finally participated in it. She did not really want to leave halfway through.

Charlie didn't say she could or not. He kept silent for a while and asked, "Which KTV are you in?"

"It's near the riverside and next to the Friends' Home," Wendy replied honestly.

"I got it." After saying that, Charlie hung up.

Wendy looked at the dark screen of her mobile phone and thought that he should have agreed.

She shrugged her shoulders and returned to the room. Her colleagues were really in a high spirit. Some walked barefoot on the tea table, swaying their waists and hips.

Wendy was playing dice games with her colleague, and they were so excited. Suddenly, the door was pushed open. The supervisor, who had just gone to the toilet, came in with a glowing face, "Everyone, guess who comes here?"

He turned aside when he said in an excited tone. A tall figure came to their eyes.

Wendy was stunned.

He was in a black suit and a white shirt The two colors would never be out of fashion. The only decoration on his body was a beautiful watch on his wrist.

He had a clearly defined face, and there seemed to be a sense of indifference between his eyebrows, which made people dare not to approach him at will. However, his indifference made him so charming.

"Ah! Mr. Hogg!" Some people couldn't help called out in a low voice.

Because their company had a cooperation with the Hogg's company, and their department was mainly responsible for the cooperation, everyone here knew Charlie.

The supervisor was already a little drunk, so he became even more excited, "What a coincidence! I met Mr. Hogg here, and he was even willing to join us!"

Wendy hadn't put down the dicebox in her hand. She was pushed to the other side of the sofa.

Charlie had already been brought to the centermost position of the sofa, and other people were sitting on both sides. The supervisor was sitting next to him, holding a bottle of wine and a glass to serve him.

"Let's skip the wine. I will drive." Charlie waved his hand.

"Okay, let's have some drinks, Mr. Hogg!" answered the supervisor.

As soon as he said this, a female colleague handed a glass of drink to Charlie.

Charlie twitched his lips and said, "Thank you."

The two words were enough to make the female colleague blush.

Wendy glanced about her female colleagues who were flattering around him. Suddenly, she felt a little unease in her heart.

Beauty brought disturbance.

Charlie glanced at them and said, "Just ignore me. You guys continue!"

After saying that, the room became lively again.

"Who hasn't sung a song? Go and sing to us!"

"Wendy hasn't sung yet."

Seeing the microphone was handed over to her, Wendy hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Forget it. I'm not good at singing..."

"Don't be shy. Everyone has already done it. Just try!" The supervisor thought that she was shy.

All the people's eyes were fixed on her, including Charlie. Then, he said in a teasing tone, "I think it's better to forget it."

She had been singing in front of him before, and her performance was really bad. So, no wonder he would say so.

But the female colleague beside him burst into laughter, which made Wendy suddenly feel uncomfortable.

She got a little angry. Then, she took the microphone and said, "I actually know how to sing an opera..."

"Opera?" The supervisor was surprised.

"Here has the accompaniment of Huangmei opera!"

A colleague had chosen a selection of the opera for her and put it at the top of the song list.

Wendy was familiar with the selection. When the prelude sounded, Wendy had no time to regret it, so she began to sing, "In order to save my lover, I had taken the imperial examination. I didn't expect that I would be the Number One Scholar. I was in a red robe and an official cap, which was strange to me. I've joined the feast hosted for successful candidates, and also ridden a horse passed by the imperial avenue. People thought I was a handsome man. But, it turned out that I was.

Was a woman..."

After she finished, it was so quiet in the room.

Wendy felt a little embarrassed, thinking that it was the same as her bad performance at last time.

When she turned back, she found that almost everyone was looking at her in shock. Someone applauded, and then the room filled with claps.

"Wendy, it's wonderful!"

"Er, thank you..."

Wendy had never been so outstanding. She handed the microphone to her colleague. When she sat down, she cast a glance at Charlie and met his deep eyes. She moved her eyes away quickly but felt warm in her heart.

When they finished, Wendy was the last one to leave.

When she came out of the glass door, as expected, she saw the white Land Rover parking there. She walked over and opened the door.

Charlie started the car and drove along the main road for two or three kilometers. Suddenly, he turned right and stopped soon. It was near a river where they could see a bridge with lights on.

Wendy was confused. When she was about to ask him, she heard him said, "Sing me the Huangmei opera again."

"Now?" She was surprised.

"Yes." Charlie nodded.

Wendy frowned. After a long time, she saw that he was still waiting patiently.

Then, she licked her lips and stated, "The reason why I wanted to be the Number One Scholar was not to show off, and I didn't want to reach a lofty position either. The only thing I wanted is my love. We became husband and wife. Live a happy life..."

At last, her voice was held back by Charlie's sudden kiss.

When he released her, his forehead was still on hers. He stared at her with his deep eyes and asked, "Who taught you that?"

"My mum..."

"Mm." Charlie swallowed and kept staring at her, "You're only allowed to sing to me in the future."

Wendy frowned at his dominance all the time.

"Clear?" Charlie asked in a deep voice.

"Yes." She answered in a hurry.

Seeing that he didn't intend to sit back to the car, and half his body pressed on her. He opened the storage case and took out a small box.

She stared at the box and swallowed, "...what do you want to do?"

"How do you think?" Charlie raised his eyebrows.

"I can't understand..." Wendy shook her head. Charlie took out a small pack and said, "Car s*x." Car s*x?

Wendy widened her eyes.
