Mr. Charles's Hidden Wife novel Chapter 77

Wendy left the room, Daisy walking to the front of Henson.

"Henson, are you taking it seriously with Miss Evans?"

"Why do you think I'm not serious with this relationship?"

Daisy bit her lips. It was his most serious look that made she feel uncomfortable.

"I know. I let you down. I should not bring the past things up again, but Henson, could you …"

Henson interrupted her, "Let the past be the past. What should not be mentioned should still be kept as secrets. At the moment, it is good for all of us."

"Henson, I feel sad to see you to live like this. In my whole life, I always hope you can be happy, That's my biggest dream. Do you understand?"

"I'm very happy now," said Henson. Henson looked at her and said, "Daisy, I'm really very happy now. Please don't worry about me."

He patted Daisy's on her shoulder. "Go to choose your room. Mason will be worried, if he waits you for a long time."

Henson gave her a smile and turned away.

Tears dropped down from Daisy's face like rain silently.

Howell talking to Mason endlessly, Wendy reached the lakeside.

Howell waved his hand to greet Wendy, "Have you decided your room yet?"

"Yes, that one has an exceptional scenery."

Mason frowned for she had not seen Henson by her side, "Where is Henson?"

"He…" Thinking of Daisy's expression in her eyes to Henson, Wendy immediately said, "He went to the washroom. I want some fresh air, so I came out alone first."

As she finished explaining, Henson happened to open the door and came out.

"Henson." greeted Howell.

Mason looked back to find nobody was following Henson, his frown gone a little.

He turned his head to continue his fishing.

Wendy faked a smile to banter with Henson, "Why so hurry? You could use the washroom a little longer. I'll not run away."

She gave an meaningful wink to Henson.

Henson bit his lips. Then he reached a hand to rub her leg, "You don't dare."

Wendy rolled her eyes. "Are you looking down on me now?"

"I'll break your legs, if you dare do that. Then I can take care of you for the whole life."

Howell looked like he was so envious. "Oh my! You are so gross! Please be careful with your words before me, OK? I'm only 18 years old. If you continued doing that in front of me, I’ll find a girl and get married with her soon.

"

Wendy blushed. "Stop your nonsense."

While they were chatting, Daisy returned.

Howell threw away his fishing rod, "Fishing is boring. Henson, what will we do?"

"How about golf?"

Henson looked at Wendy and asked, "Can you play golf?"

"No, I can’t." Wendy shook her head.

"Perfect, then I can teach you."

Daisy walked to Mason and laughed, "Golf is more interesting. Wendy, you must have not known that Henson once won a prize in it."

Henson gave Daisy a weird glance.

Daisy realized something and immediately stopped her words. She turned to push Mason's wheelchair, "Mason, let me push you to the golf course."

"Just don't count me in it. I can't play it and will ruin your mood there. Fishing here is a better choice for me. You guys can go and have some fun yourselves."

Thinking of Mason's disability, Wendy looked at Henson and also refused his advice, "We can leave golf to the next time when we go out alone. This time we can play other games."

Henson looked to Wendy with a doting smile, "OK, then what should we do now?"

"How about playing cards?"

Howell asked with surprise, "Sister Wendy, do you mean gambling?"

"No. I just want to ask if you know how to play UNO."

The rest of them looked around at each confusingly and no one answered her question.

Wendy clapped her hands and said happily, "Great! Finally I have got something to teach you. I will teach you how to play it. The biggest loser should make roast the food for us at lunch. We can have a barbecue here too later. How about this?"

Howell raised his hand first happily, "I liked it. I agree."

Then Wendy asked them to download the game. While setting a private online room for them, she explained the basic rules to them.

Soon they began their first battle. 

This game only needed four people at each round. So they took turns to play the game. 

At first, she thought she would definitely be the biggest winner as she knew the game well. 

But after 3 rounds, she was shocked by these incredibly smart people.

Especially by Henson and Mason.

At the first round, Wendy try to hold a "skip" card to help her teammate Howell to win. But Henson and Mason seemed to have noticed her intention, they forced her to change the card's colors so many times that Howell could only added more and more card to his hand.

Then after 3 minutes, their round ended. She and Howell naturally lost many scores to them.

At the second round, Henson and Dasiy were on the same team. Henson seemed to have the ability to see through the cards. He used all his cards to help Dasiy win the game. Wendy lost the game again.

At the thrid round, Henson and Mason worked together again. This time, they don't even care to hide their strong cards. They used all their functional cards one by one, and beat them to death.

Wendy thought it's normal for Howell to lose. But she had known the rules well and played it before.

How could she have lost so many grades to them.

After 10 rounds, they had the biggest winner and loser.

She was the biggest loser.

Wendy felt that she had got so much shock in her life after she met Henson.

Howell heaved a long sigh with relief and said, "Sister Wendy. Thanks. Without you, I will have to cook the lunch later. Thank you."

Wendy rolled at him, "Oh, you are welcome! "

Then she got up on her feet to fetch the food and other materials for the barbecue.

Half an hour later, she had been sitting in front of the rack and cooking some meat for them."

Right next to her, the four were happily chatting and drinking their tea.

Wendy felt a little upset for this result.

How could she not be on a team with Henson once? It seemed that even the game was implying that they could only be rivals. 

Daisy had a little chat with them. Then she came to Wendy.

"Wendy, let me help you."

"Thank you, Daisy. I can do it myself. This's easy."

"Henson just said that you're good at cooking. I believe we will get some delicious food later."

Wendy felt a little awkward for his praise. She just said, "Barbecue is easy. It does not need any cooking skills."
