Mr. Charles's Hidden Wife novel Chapter 74

Henson nodded without hesitation. "Yes."

"Why can you be so sure?"

"Because you don't even bother to do that. I know you."

Wendy was somewhat touched by him. 

Henson smiled, "Are you thinking I am very considerate now?"

Wendy retracted her gaze. "You can say whatever you like."

"Admit it or not, I helped you today, so you should promise me two things."

"What're they?"

"First, don't get too close to the male employees in our company. I am afraid I would be so jealous that I might not be able to stop myself from firing all of them for you."

Wendy was speechless, "If I promise you that I won't like them, then you agree not to fire them?"

"Of course."

"How can you trust me so much?"

Henson smirked.

"Alright, I promise you that I won't have a relationship with any man in this company."

"Except for me."

"Include you. What's the other thing?"

"Give me a spare key of your house."

"Why?"

"Because I want to save troubles. I don't want to ring the doorbell anymore."

"No, this is my house, private room. I won't give the key to you."

"I just wanted to save troubles."

Wendy shook her head with determination. "You're the guest now. If you get the key, you’ll become the master. I know the difference."

Henson rolled his eyes at Wendy. "On this thing, you are smart."

"Am I not saying the truth?"

"I think you just don't trust me."

"Of course."

After dinner, as Wendy was washing the dishes, her phone rang.

Henson took her phone to the kitchen. He pushed the door open, "The Late Queen is calling you."

Wendy wiped her hands on her apron before taking the phone.

"Hello."

"My dear. I’ll go home by bullet train tomorrow night. Will you see me off?"

"Um… I can treat you a good lunch tomorrow. But you should leave alone after that. "

"Why? Why will you not see me off? You are cruel."

Wendy smiled, "Because I'm afraid to see your tears."

"That's because I don't want to leave you."

"Neither do I.

I am afraid I will also feel sad and cry too. So I decided not to send you off tomorrow. But I will go to see you at noon."

"Alright, then I'll cry at noon."

Wendy could not help smiling and said, "You have bought the eye drops already, haven't you?"

"Wow, how do you know?"

"Because I know you best."

After hanging up, Wendy turned to look at Henson. He had kept leaning against the door for a long time.

"Is it fun to listen to other people's talk on the phone?"

"No, it isn't. I'm only curious the reason why you can be amiable to others."

"You're saying I've treated you coldly?"

"Not cold, but not that good or natural either."

"You're not her," said Wendy. "She's an important friend."

"But I am also your future husband. Who do you think is closer and important to you?"

Wendy stared at him. "Henson, how can you be this confident?"

"I'm confident because I always can keep my promise."

"But in my eyes, I could use your old words to reply this that the more arrogant you are now, the more hurtful you will feel in the end."

Henson hugged his chest. Then he laughed, "How about having a bet?"

Wendy raised one of her eyebrow. "Sure, what's the bet?"

"If you finally marry me, you should bear three children for me."

Wendy flashed because of his words.

"But if not so?"

"What do you like?"

"Then you should keep distance from me and never come to me again."

"I am sure I will win." Henson smiled confidently.

"This bet will only be valid for half a year."

"No problem."

Wendy tidied up the kitchen, she chasing Henson away.

Henson walked to the front door, then he suddenly remembered and added, "Oh, right, spare this weekend for me. I have a family gathering to go on a vacation in suburb."

Wendy frowned. "I'm not going there with you."

"You can not just say no. After all, you said you wanted to marry me last time. In their eyes, you are my fiancee now."

Thinking of that, Wendy clenched her teeth. She had made a huge mistake.

Henson could not help but smirk.

In the afternoon next day, Wendy left the company on time and quickly.

In order to stay longer with Judy, she took a taxi to the school.

Judy, who was always late, had been waiting for her.

They embraced and went to the school cafeteria.

This was Judy's request.

Their beautiful faces attracted quite a bit of attention.

Judy said with pity, "After leaving here, I won't be the focus anymore in the future."

"Do you really enjoy this?"

"Yes. I am also very happy. After all, I won't be under the shadow of you in the future. "

Wendy's speechless.

Judy took a bite of celery. She then put on a strict face. "Wait. About your handsome brother, does he have a girlfriend now? Won't you introduce him to me?"

"He... I can not explain it with a few words. So later in the future, I will tell you the truth. Let us skip him right now."

"Look at your disdainful look to your brother. Didn't you like him?"

Wendy shook her head, "We have different mothers. Why would I like him?"

After saying that, Wendy added silently in her heart, I was saying Henson not Bain.

"I don't care. You have to call me a lot.  Anyway, I will have a lot of free time."

"Don't worry about this. Even if you don't ask me to do this, I would still call you ofthen."

"By the way, that sl*t has moved out from the dorm. She seemed to plan to look for a job here."

"Is that so?" Wendy had a sip of her juice. "I don't care."

"I'm telling you to be careful. She hates your guts."

"I know."

"Also, you should not make up with Gorman. Or… I will choose to break up with you too. Don't be so stupid to forgive an unfaithful ex-boyfriend, OK?"

Thinking of the harsh words from Gorman to her, Wendy shook her head. She laughed, "Judy, you say this for you don't know how hard to open your heart again to someone who disappointed you. I won't do that."

"However, when it comes to love, I am afraid you can not keep calm. Love will turn the smartest ones into crazy idiots."

Inexplicably, her words reminded Wendy of Henson.

Heneson's obsession with her was actually a bit crazy.

But Wendy knew that he did not love her.
