Wendy was stunned by Larry's words, and then she smiled.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door again, and Emily came out of the room with confusion on her face.
"Why is someone knocking on the door again?"
When the door opened, she shouted at the inside, "Wendy, it should be looking for you again!"
Wendy put down Larry and stood up, then saw the tall figure standing at the door. Like Charlie, he also liked to wear black clothes. But the temperaments of the two people were different. The former looked more gentle, while the latter was more domineering and strong.
"Ryan, you're here!" Wendy just remembered that she had a date with Ryan, and gave him and Emily a brief introduction.
"I've brought you the disk that you requested!" Ryan smiled.
"Thank you!" Wendy was grateful. She quickly said to Ryan, "Come in!"
"Alright." Ryan changed into slippers as well.
Wendy took him into the living room and went to the kitchen to make tea for him.
Emily, who was hiding and observing from the side, followed Wendy in the kitchen. She looked at the living room and asked, "Wendy, is this friend of yours interested in you?"
"Keep your voice down. What if he hears us?" Wendy hurriedly explained with a frown. "Also, don't talk nonsense. It's not like that!"
Emily got a look of disbelief. She looked out and pursed her lips. "I didn't talk nonsense. You have to believe my sixth sense! Like Mr. Hogg, his eyes are shining as he looks at you!"
Wendy replied casually, "That's reflected from the lens, isn't it..."
However, she didn't care too much about this. Instead, the mention of Mr. Hogg made her feel a little strange.
Did he?
Four years later, Charlie, who had lost his memory, would still look at her with shining eyes...
"Humph, you don't believe me!" Emily said with a snort.
Wendy didn't bother to argue and told Emily not to talk nonsense later. Then, she left with a cup of tea.
Seeing that Wendy handed the brewed tea to Ryan, Larru was so anxious that he circled around her legs. "Where's mine?"
"Here it is, your yogurt!" Wendy smiled and took out the hand that was behind her back.
Larry was happy to see that, so he took it and took a sip happily.
Yesterday, Ryan also went to the fishing park, and Larry followed Wendy like a tail. He also saw how they got along with each other and said with a smile, "Wendy, this child seems to be very close to you!"
"Yes!" Wendy nodded. "I didn't expect it as well, it's just a coincidence, but he's really adorable!"
Ryan also smiled and nodded. However, as a psychologist, he valued this relationship a little differently. "This is actually a very good phenomenon. I had been so worried that after that incident you would be left with a shadow in your mind and be resistant to children, but it doesn't seem to be necessary!"
"Hm..." Wendy caressed Larry's face lightly.
"Larry, I came back this time only because of work matters. After dealing with it, I will go back!" Wendy sighed, held Larry on her knees again, endured her sadness and said, "Although we may not be able to see each other as readily as we do now, but that's okay, you can call me or talk to me on FaceTime. Or if there is a chance, I will come back to see you!"
Larry's mouth twitched, feeling extremely heartbroken.
As the night fell, the white Land Rover drove into the yard from the private road.
Charlie pulled out the key but didn't get off the car immediately. Instead, he took out a cigarette and lit it.
As the white smoke scattered, he put his elbow on the window. As he exhaled deeply, his deep eyes narrowed, and he frowned and leaned back on the chair, and even nicotine couldn't suppress his irritation either.
He didn't come back from working late at the office, but was called to Hogg's Mansion.
Donna called him yesterday, so he knew why Gilbert asked him to go there. But he had to go.
Gilbert made a good point. It had been four years since the engagement ceremony of Madge and him, and Larry was almost four years old. It could let Larry try to accept a new family. Madge was qualified as his fiancee. After so many years of tolerance, it seemed that it's time for him to take responsibility.
But he still didn't say anything, because he didn't want to do that in his heart. At that moment, he thought of Wendy and even wanted to disobey his father's orders.
However, at the same time, he was not unfamiliar with the feeling of wanting to go against his father...
Charlie took a deep drag on his cigarette, then cut off the remaining half of the cigarette and threw it away. He opened the door and walked into the villa.
He changed into slippers and entered the living room, only to see Aunt Lee standing there with a sad face. As far as his eyes could see, in the corner of the sofa, there was a small figure with its head hanging down. The lights was shining on him, he looked so sad.
