Charlie's face, which had already turned dark, had no expression when suddenly heard her words. And he looked a little funny.
His eyes sparkled as if he was shocked by these three words, but at the same time, he could not believe what he heard.
His Adam's apple was rolling up and down. When he wanted to say something, he felt as if his voice had been taken away, and he could not utter a word.
Wendy knew what he wanted to ask. She smiled and saw herself reflected in his two dark pupils, then repeated it again, "Charlie, I love you."
This might be the first time for her to express her feelings in such a straightforward way.
How could she not be shy? Her face was burning hot enough, so she simply lowered her head and buried her face in his arms, showing only two red ears.
Charlie finally found his voice. He held her in his arms stiffly and said, "Wendy, can you say it again?"
In fact, not only four years ago, but also until today, there was a trace of fear hidden in the depths of his heart. He had never shown it, but he was afraid that it was just because of their son that she was willing to be with him again.
But that was not a big deal, he just wanted her to be with him. His heart could not calm down for a long time when he heard the three words.
"No..." Wendy shook her head and refused.
After that, no matter how hard he tried to persuade her, she would not say anything.
Wendy was embraced in his arms. Listening to his chaotic heartbeats, she felt that their hearts were getting closer.
"You have to go to work tomorrow, so go to sleep early!"
Hearing this, Charlie raised his eyebrows and asked, "Well, do I need to sleep in the study room?"
"No..." Wendy smiled helplessly.
This man, was really...
He had gotten what he wanted, still bargaining!
Charlie didn't let go of her immediately. Instead, he reached out and lifted her chin.
Wendy also closed her eyes and felt his thin lips fall down. The kiss soon became deep.
She couldn't help but moan and fell into his arms. She unconsciously put her arms around his strong waist and slightly responded him.
For a moment, there were only soft gasps between the two people in the bedroom.
Charlie held her back with his palm. When he was about to go down, he suddenly found something and stopped all his movements. He opened his deep eyes and looked in the direction of the door.
Wendy was still in a daze, so she did not know why he suddenly stopped.
She followed Charlie's gaze and saw that the bedroom door had peeled open a gap, and a small figure came in. He was covering his eyes with two small hands, but secretly looking out through his fingers. "Are you going to do bad things next?"
Larry was wearing cartoon pajamas. His slightly curly mushroom hair was softly hanging on his head, looking naive and innocent.
"..." Wendy looked embarrassed.
Larry turned over in her arms, yawned twice, and closed his eyes.
In the darkness, a large hand passed over Larry and reached out.
Wendy held it in her hand in shyness. A dilapidated residential building area in the old city was classified as a dangerous building by the government at the beginning of the year, waiting to be demolished.
Now there were still people living in the building, but most of them were only tenants. The distance between different buildings was very close, and many alleys were connected. Moreover, there was a lot of debris piled up in front of the building, so it was impossible for the car to get in, except for the electric motorcycle. If two electric motorcycles met at the same time, they had to stop to avoid each other.
Each building had a layer of basement, the rent was very cheap, but the room was very damp, only a very small window, at noon can barely have the sun shone in.
Helen held her knees, leaned against the window, and lived in a daze every day.
Although it was an independent bedroom, the space was very small, only four or five square meters. With a shabby single bed and a small table, there was almost no place to stand, and the walls were full of moldy smell, and sometimes you could see worms crawling over them.
Even if she was kicked out of the Lim family by Johnny, and even if Johnny divorced her, she lived in a much better place than here. But she had to endure at this time, because she was now the one who was on the run. She ordered someone to kidnap Wendy, and the police were arresting her. She didn't even dare to go out, so she had to hide here. Someone knocked on the door, and a raunchy man in his thirties came in. He threw her a lunch box and said, "Time to eat!"
"Let me make another phone call! Please!" Helen immediately got up and went over.
After pleading for a long time, the man finally agreed. He went back to the living room and took a telephone, connecting it to the telephone line hanging on the wall. He said impatiently, "Only five minutes!"
Helen nodded quickly, squatted in the corner, picked up the microphone and dialed the number.
From the day she hid here, this number had been dialed many times, so she could recite it.
When the line was connected, Helen heard the beeping sound and felt anxious in her heart. She was afraid that no one would answer. When it was finally picked up, she excitedly stood up and said, "Hello, you finally answered my phone!"
