"You haven't slept with her?" Wendy looked at Charlie in surprise.
"Mm." Charlie's lips twitched.
Wendy blinked her eyes and continued to ask in disbelief and uncertainty, "In those four years, never...?"
They were unmarried couples and adults. It was normal for them to have sex.
"Mm." Charlie still answered simply.
"Then how could she..." Speaking of this, Wendy stopped and suddenly understood.
Charlie had always been a man of his word. He didn't even bother to deny what he had done, so she believed what he had said. There was only one answer, and it was Madge who was deliberately lying to her...
Charlie's calm voice continued to ring, and every word he spoke was sprayed on her face, "I didn't hold her hand, didn't kiss her, and didn't sleep with her. What else do you want to know?"
When Wendy heard the phrase "sleep" and "have sex for the whole night", it seemed that he was deliberately referring to something.
"No..." She turned her face awkwardly.
Charlie didn't seem to want to let her go so easily. He said in a very meaningful tone, "Don't you always know best if I can sleep with other women?" Wendy bit her lip.
Before today, she probably would not have thought so.
In the past four years, if he had never touched Madge, and now that she knew that Larry was her son, all thoughts about having a one-night stand or keeping a lover had been completely overturned, then he would still be the same as before. He could only be turned on by her...
Wendy lowered her eyelashes and her breathing was a little unstable.
"Are you still angry?" Charlie raised his eyebrows at her.
"I'm not..." Wendy refuted in embarrassment.
Charlie glanced at the suitcase at his feet and asked her, "Are you still leaving"
"..." Wendy remained silent.
Being stared at by him, she felt uncomfortable and wanted to avoid him. She forgot that there was a suitcase that had been unfolded. She stumbled when she lifted her foot, and she was about to fall back.
However, she did not fall or hit anything, because a strong arm had already held her firmly.
Wendy subconsciously raised her drooping hand and put it on his chest.
Under her palm, she could feel the eruption of his muscles and the strong heartbeat of his heart.
One at a time, and again.
Wendy felt her breathing become slower and slower.
Resolute facial features were full of her pupils, and he was getting closer and closer. She could see his protruding adam's apple and the tiny stubble that was not cleanly shaved on his chin.
A mischievous light flashed across Charlie's eyes. "It's time to close your eyes."
"..." Being flirted, Wendy's face turned red instantly.
She felt that the blush had spread to her ears and her neck, growing as rapidly as weeds.
"Wendy-"
A soft child's voice sounded at this moment.
The two of them quickly separated from each other, and at the same time as they stood firm, a small figure ran in from the bedroom door.
Err... Looked like they had to continue living together... In the afternoon, in a department store.
Wendy took Larry with her left hand and held Emily with her right hand. They finished their afternoon tea at the upstairs beverage store and went to the minus level to continue their supermarket shopping together.
When the two of them met again, they couldn't help but smile at each other.
At first, they thought that they would live abroad together, but in the end, neither of them left.
Emily looked at Larry, who was picking up toys on the shelf in front of her, and sighed. "Wendy, this is amazing. I still can't believe it! The young master of the Hogg family is actually your son. He came from your belly! I was wondering why he's so close to you. You two are related by blood. Everything makes sense. This is the nature of a mother and a son!"
She didn't tell anyone about the pregnancy except for Felix.
When she left the country, she couldn't keep the baby. And when she returned, she never mentioned it to her best friend because it was so sad, but now she didn't need to hide anything.
"Like you, sometimes when I wake up in the morning and see Larry, I feel like it's not real! but I'm lucky, I'm grateful for everything!" Wendy also looked at Larry, and her eyes were soft. Then she looked at her bestie. "What about you? How have you been these days? Have the little fellow in your belly tortured you again?"
"It's already much better!" Emily said with a smile. Then, she blurted out, "Simon helps me find an experienced gynecologist..."
In the end, her voice became lower and lower, and an unnatural blush appeared on her face.
Wendy did not expose Emily, either. She smiled and patted Emily's hand.
Deep down in her heart, she still hoped that Emily and Simon could get back together again. She always felt that the two of them had four years of marriage. If they really ended up like this, it would be a bit of a pity.
Larry is torn between two remote-controlled planes and came running for help.
Wendy helped choose one. Larry grinned, raised his head and threw one into the shopping cart, and then put the other one back to the original place.
When Larry ran away again, Emily asked, "Wendy, what's your plan with Mr. Hogg?"
