Mr. Charles's Hidden Wife novel Chapter 55

"I told Mrs. Taylor I didn't care about your background. In the future, you will be girl.So she’d better leave you alone."

Wendy looked at Henson in surprise. "Are you serious?"

"You can ask her if you don't believe it."

Wendy blushed. "Then she was probably pissed off."

"Didn't care that."

Wendy looked at him, "May I ask one more question?"

"Go ahead."

"You have so many women around you waiting for your love, then why do you like me? If it is because that you have never met a poor woman like me before or because that I am so miserable which arises your sympathy to me, then you might have misunderstood me and my life. I am not that poor; I just like money."

"About that question, I have two answers. Which one do you want to hear?"

"Truth or lie? I would like to hear both."

"No, they are truth and truth. To put it tactfully, I like to talk with you for you are straightforward to me. To put it directly, I really want to sleep with you."

"Cough, cough," Wendy was startled by his confession. Covering her mouth with her hand, Wendy tried her best to stop herself from coughing and then asked, "So do you love me then?"

Henson looked at her and said the truth, "I just admire you very much now. But it is not love. I need more time."

"So you mean you can sleep with a woman you don’t love?"

"You are not just a common woman to me. As I've said, I have a crush on you. So, I can sleep with you without love. And, you are smelling good with some medicinal fragrance."

"Medicinal fragrance?"

"Love potion."

Hearing this, Wendy coughed again.

If it was not for he looked handsome, Wendy would have called the police.

"Henson, I can tell you clearly that I saw the painful life of my mother, so I won't love someone who doesn't love me. So if it is possible, I hope you can change your target. I don't want you to get hurt."

Henson looked at her to purse his lips, "How do you know you will be hurt? You can have a try, and perhaps I am worthy of your trust."

"I'm not suitable for you." Wendy laughed.

"You can't be so sure."

However, Wendy firmly believed they were not suitable.

So she did not reply. Then she took out a beautifully wrapped box. She placed it on the table, pushing it to him.

"What is this?"

"In order to show my gratitude, I bought a gift for you. I know you don't lack anything; perhaps you will think my gift was too cheap, or not worthy of your taste, but I still bought it anyway. I just want my heart be at ease. So if you want to throw it away, please do that after I leave."

Henson raised his eyebrows with some happiness. A gift?

This was his first gift from a woman.

Henson wanted to open it.

But Wendy felt embarrassed, so she stretched out her hand to press the box down. "Can you see it after you go back home?"

Henson raised his eyebrows again and asked, "So mysterious?"

"I just don't want to see the disdain on your face. I will be ashamed."

But Henson still opened the box. It was a dark blue pen.

Taking out the pen, he saw engraved words on it.

 "Did you carve these words?"

"I just wrote the characters, but I am not good at carving. So I have someone do that for me."

Henson looked carefully at the tiny words.

It said, "Henson, thank you."

Seeing him was sizing up the words, Wendy asked embarrassingly, "Isn't it a little out of date?"

Henson didn't say anything. But he stuffed it into his shirt pocket, "How do I look with it?"

Wendy pursed her lips into a smile. "Pretty good, but judging from your taste, it may be …"

"That's good," Henson raised his eyebrows. "I'll use it carefully."

Wendy was stunned. So he liked this gift?

It was odd.

In the next morning, Wendy showed up at the gate of Charles Group on time.

Wendy had asked Henson to pretend not knowing her in advance,

So no one knew she was under the cover of Henson to get in this company.

Like a normal new employee, Wendy was busy studying materials of the company.

She should explain the new products to the salesmen.

They have recruited four lecturers.

Each of them was responsible for one product. Wendy got the job to explain the upgraded second-generation air purifier to the salesmen.

She should give them the formal classes a week later. So at present, she have to learn all the details, features, and selling points of the product.

At noon, Wendy received a call from Henson.

"Have you gotten off work already?"

Wendy looked outside from pantry. Then she carefully whispered, "Not yet."

"Why?"

"Because everyone is still studying."

"You don't need to do that. Just come upstairs."

"No, I can't. I will be seen by others."

" But I'm hungry."

Wendy thought about it. "How about … I leave the lunch box to the receptionist and then your secretary can go down to pick it up for you."

"We are not special agents."

"but I can't get away."

"Then you can just come to find me after you're done. Don't worry, I'm the only one here."

"But … Our team leader just said he would take us to eat lunch. This is my first day here, so I could not say no to him."

Henson was unhappy. Who was so annoying?

"Then after you finish your eating, you could come to see me."

"But…"

"It's settled. Go back to your work now." Henson hung up the phone soon.

He then called his secretary. "Dayne, find out who is the leader of the Training Department. Then transfer him to another position abroad."

The secretary was stunned for his words. "You mean to transfer him right now?"

"Yes, right now, immediately! In ten minutes, he should leave the company."

"Alright."

"After this, you can get off work and be back at half-past one."

After hanging up, Dayne was puzzled. Why did Mr. Charles care about this trifle? So wired!

Half an hour later, Wendy stepped into the elevator to go up.

The elevator reached the 36th floor. Wendy then got off, carefully looking around.

No one was here.

Wendy walked along the long the road to the end. Then she finally saw the CEO office.

She then knocked on the door.

"Come in."

It was Henson.

After letting out a breath, Wendy pushed open the door to see his face. "It scared me."

"What happened?"

"I don't want to be seen by others here. You don't know how careful I have been. I pressed the 35th floor first to check if there is anyone was there. Then I find there was no one, so I go upstairs."

"What would you do if you have met someone there?"

"Then I could get off the elevator, explaining that I had went the wrong place."

"You have been too careful about this. It seems as if you're having an affair with me, and won't be caught by others." As Henson said this, he walked near to Wendy. Then he almost whispered to Wendy, "How about really having an affair with me?"
