Mr. Charles's Hidden Wife novel Chapter 80

He could feel the deep fear in Wendy's eyes as she looked at him.

He didn't know the reason.

But now he knew that she wanted him to stay.

He then laid down beside Wendy. Then he said softly, "OK. I'll lie here with you. And I will go nowhere. Have a good sleep."

Wendy then slowly closed her eyes.

Many minutes passing, she could still feel the fear.

Sweat appeared on her forehead slowly.

Henson reached out to wipe it from her forehead. Then he put his arms around her.

Soon Wendy became calm again.

She then fell asleep.

After a while, a knock came from their door.

Henson slowly let go of Wendy. After getting down from the bed quietly, he walked to the door to open it.

It was Daisy.

She looked at Henson with tears.

"Henson, is Wendy alright now?"

Her voice was a bit hoarse.

He knew she might have cried for a while.

Henson turning around to have a look at Wendy, he closed the door and then walked out.

"She's asleep now."

"Please believe me. I didn't do anything to her." Daisy grabbed Henson's arm.

"I like Wendy as you. What happened to her just now? " Daisy raised her right hand to cover her sudden eyes.

 "Please stop crying."

"Do you believe me?" Daisy asked him with teary eyes, "Henson, do you believe me?"

Henson nodded his head,"Yes, I do."

He then patted Daisy on her shoulders, "Everything's fine now. You can go to rest now."

"Wendy will be fine, right?"

Henson replied seriously like making a promise, "Yes. I am here. I won't let bad things happen to her."

 Daisy feel even worse for his obvious care for Wendy.

She had never seen such a Henson.

In front of her, he made a love promise to another woman so firmly.

Daisy's heart hurt greatly as if a bit of it had been torn off.

After she left, Henson went back to hug Wendy to sleep until daybreak.

The sunlight woke Wendy up next morning.

She tried to move her body. But then she realized that she was in Henson's arms.

Wendy looked at his beautiful sleeping face with a smile.

Henson opened his eyes and joked, "Am I handsome?"

"What?"

"Am I, handsome?" He curled up his charming lips.

Wendy frowned to get up.

But Henson pulled her back into his embrace. "Again?"

Wendy said helpless, "I just want to get up."

Henson held Wendy tightly. "How do you feel now? Any better? "

She nodded.

"What happened to you last night? Did anything happen between you and Daisy?"

That horrible image ran into her mind again.

Wendy frowned to stop the terrible memory.

"No. Nothing."

"Then why did you scream fearfully?"

"It's my own problem."

She then struggled to get up from the bed.

But Henson was not easy to be fooled. He turned over his body to press her under him.

He put on bossy look and asked, "Why do you want to keep a secret from me?"

"Everyone has a secret. No one would like to expose all of themselves to others."

Henson lowered his head to kiss on her lips.

"I agree that."

Wendy frowned, "You…"

"This is my reward." Henson smiled and sat up, "But you have improved a lot."

"What did you mean?" Wendy wondered.

"Last time, when you saw me on the bed with you, you was totally shocked. But this time, you are calm. And I am very satisfied."

She was a little shy.

Why did he have to say it out?

They going downstairs to the living room, Mason and Daisy had already been there, eating breakfast.

Seeing them, Daisy hurried to the stairs, "Wendy, are you alright?"

Wendy nodded,, "I'm sorry. Daisy. I must have scared you last night."

"I'm fine. But you really made me worry."

"I'm fine. I saw you there with eyes closed, I thought you…" She looked at Daisy's face and stopped her following words.

Daisy tilted her head. Then she laughed to add, "You thought I was dead?"

Wendy's face turned red. "I'm sorry.

"

Daisy held her hand gently. She said, "I'm fine. You don't need to apologize to me. I was just too tired and fell asleep. I didn't expect that I will scare you. I am so happy to see you're fine now."

Mason urged, "Don't just stand here. You all should come here to eat breakfast now."

Wendy followed Daisy to the table.

Henson followed behind them.

Others might bought Wendy's words, but he didn't believe it at all.

In his eyes, he thought her fear had deep reasons.

He then was slightly vexed to find that he in fact knew nothing about her past.

Then Wendy had a whole calm and happy week in the company.

Lily had been dismissed.

Avril did not even dare to talk to her anymore either.

Moreover, she didn't have to prepare lunchboxes for Henson.

Going upstairs to send the lunchbox to him was really a hard task.

She was not that good at hiding herself from others.

This afternoon, she came down to eat in the canteen. Then Joye also went down.

Joye took the opposite seat of Wendy directly after getting her lunch.

Wendy smiled at her and greeted her respectfully, "Hi, Joye."

"Hi." Joye suddenly said, "Don't be so polite to me. You can treat me as a friend."

"But you are my director. I should show my respect to you."

"But you are special, my lucky star. I know that I would not have been promoted without you."

They were chatting, Avril walking over.

She asked them with a timid voice, "Can I join you here?"

Wendy continued her eating, pretending not hearing anything.

Joye then relied, "Sorry. But we are discussing some important things."

Avril was turned down, her face instantly becoming red. "Oh, okay. I got it."

As she went past Joye, she turned her head to Wendy with an indignant expression.
