Mr. Charles's Hidden Wife novel Chapter 129

Four or five people then left the room with Donald.

A cloud could be seen on his face. Henson looked at Wendy and patted the seat next to him. "Come and sit here."

"I've been sitting on the seat for a whole day. I think I'd better to stand here for a while."

"Are you waiting for me to carry you here?"

Wendy hesitated for no time to sidestep the tea table and took a seat near him.

Just as she expected.

She was pushed down by Henson the moment she sat down.

Wendy looked at Henson and asked nervously, "Can't we have a proper talk?"

"What's your feeling of getting confession in public?"

"How did you know that?"

"What do you think?"

"Howell lied to me? I have already told him that I will tell you this myself."

So the confession thing really happened. Henson explained, "It wasn't him. But you seemed to have made an agreement on this thing. Alright then, let me hear what you can say now."

"Can we... sit properly to have a talk? I can't breathe for your whole weight is on me now."

Henson sat up. "You'd better be honest with me. Otherwise, you know what I will do to you."

Wendy sat up to tidy up her clothes."It wasn't Howell. So you mean you heard it... from the Principal again?"

"Who else would care about you so much?"

Wendy was miffed. "How could you believe her words? She would definitely make up a story to you. She must had mentioned a boy and the grove, right?"

Henson did not replied her directly, but just said, "No matter what she says, I do not believe it at all. I only believe your words. So, tell me the whole story now."

Wendy rolled her eyes at him at heart. Henson seemed to be implying that he was the fairest and only right one now.

"At the lunchtime, a male student came to make a confession to me.

Too many onlookers were surrounded us at that time. So I asked him to have a private talk elsewhere."

"Oh?" Henson hugged his chest as he raised his eyebrows to look at Wendy calmly and asked, "It seems that you have rejected him."

"Sure. I refused him. What else can I do? Date a student and get curses by people?"

"Why not refuse him on the spot and in public? You went always with him to a private place. People would definitely think wild and gossip about you."

"If I were to reject him in front of the crowd, he would probably be discouraged. For a long time after that, he would be ridiculed by others with this. He likes me with kind intentions and goodwill. I don't want to hurt him. "

"A train of social blows are waiting for him in society. Can you help him avoid them all?"

"Blows from society will have nothing to do with me. My rule's very simple that I won't let innocent people get hurt for me."

"How about the gossips?"

"I used to care much about people's opinions on me. But you once said something very correct that why others' opinions on me have anything to do with me."

Henson tilted his head and burst into laugh.

"So, what on earth did the principal say?"

"She described you as a sl*t, saying that you seduced a student to make a confession to you. Then she also told me that you walked away with the boy, probably for some disgusting purposes. She told me to be careful of you."

Wendy gritted her teeth in displeasure.
