Mr. Charles's Hidden Wife novel Chapter 82

Wendy looked at Bain with a faint smile. Then she still shook her head.

"Why are you so stubborn? Would you accept my gift, if I am not a Nicholson?"

Wendy chuckled. "No, I won't accapt it either. But If you are not a Nicholson at the very begining, then you won't be my brother. I won't know youand sit here to eat with you now. In conclusion, you can put away the key now. Don't do this again. I feel bad to refuse you everytime."

Bain took back the key. "Fine. At least, I have bought it with your name. And even if you won't live in it, you have owned it legally."

"Just forget it. Let's eat now." Bain picked up some food to Wendy.

Wendy nodded with a smile to have the food.

They were about to leave after dinner, two familiar faces came in sight.

They were Johnson and Avril.

Wendy was not surprised to them together. After all, she had already known their relationship before.

But the two were shocked to see her, especially Johnson.

Wendy did not greet them to save trouble.

Bain was smart. If she did greet them, Bain would soon find the truth that she was working for Henson. 

So she just pulled Bain away to sidewalked them from other side.

After walking a few steps, Bain asked in bewilderment, "Do you know them?"

"Yes and I hate the girl."

"Your classmate?"

Wendy shrugged and said an ambiguous answer. "Just colleagues."

Behind they, Johnson suddenly stopped to look back to them.

Avril asked Johnson in bewilderment, "Who is that man with Wendy? This is a high-end restaurant."

Johnson muttered, "He is the heir to Nicholson’s group. The young master of the Nicholson family. Bain."

Avril was then flabbergasted.

"Isn't it the comapny that Charles Group is targeting?"

"Yes."

Avril was even more surprised and confused.

Avril thought Wendy was just naive and arrogant. But if fact, she was not clean at all either. 

But out of her surprise, Wendy was such a good player to get connected with Bain.

Wendy seemed to have a bigger ambition than her.

She soon took out her hand from Johnson's arm.

Then she quickly took out her phone to take a picture of their backs.

Johnson glared at her and asked, "What are you doing? Stay away from this."

"Johnson, I just worry she would say someting bad about us in the company. As we all know, she has caused much trouble until now. I am just a contractor. But you are the manager and I don't want our relationship affect your career. I have these photographs. Then she won't dare bring trouble to us."

Johnson smiled to caress her hands, "Darling, you're considerate."

Avril faked a smile as she kissed him on the cheek. Then they had a good dinner.

The next day.

Avril was coming out from the pantry.

 Then she saw Wendy. She laughed to pull Wendy into the pantry.

"Wendy, Come over. I want to share something with you."

Everyone in the office preparing for work, no one paid any attention to them here.

Avril closed the door. Then she leaned on it, smiling mischievously at her.

Wendy was calm. "What happened?"

"I thought you were simple. But in fact, you are no better than me. But yes, you are lucky to have a better man."

As she spoke, she extended a hand to Wendy. "We know each other's secrets now. So how about being my ally? We can help each other. Since your man is the enemy of Charles Group's, now I can believe that you won't stay in this company. So I apologize to you. "

She just gave her a disdainful smile.

Avril frowned, "What do you mean by that look? "

"Avril, you guess wrong. And I don't buy it."

Wendy swept Avril's hand away as she said this.

"I'm not going to make friends with you."

"Heh, are you think you're pure and clean? We are the same type of person. Where is your confidence from to think you are superior than me?"

"I know who I am. I don't need hide myself. Also, we are different. I don't think I am superior than you. You framed me just a few days ago. And I won't forget that mistake so soon.

"

Wendy cast a cold sight at her. Then she walked back to her seat.

She only needed to stay here for another 10 days.

She had set up her mind.

She would keep a good distance from everyone in these 10 days.

Avril sneered, "Liar."

At noon, Jimmy finished his training work outside. When he came back, he walked to Wendy's desk.

He then knocked on her desk.

Wendy raised her head to see his simling face, she becoming vigilant.

"Jimmy, what's the matter?"

"Let's have lunch together later. A new restaurant was opened in front the company. I heard their dishes were pretty good."

His enthusic intoduction immediately attracted much attention from the people in office, including Avril.

She pursed her lips with distain secretly.

Wendy had got a swan. How would she try the chicken?

Jimmy was too stupid.

Wendy shook his head, "Sorry, but I have an appointment with Joye"

She then stood up and looked to Joye in the corner.

"Should we leave now? Joye?" asked Wendy.

Joye smiled at her to get up, "OK. Let's go now."

Walking past Jimmy, Joye patted his shoulder and added, "Go to find someone else to have lunch with. I have asked her to be my permanent lunch partner before."

Wlking out of the office, Wendy smiled, "Joye, thank you."

"It's not a big deal. And indeed I also have to eat lunch anyway."

At the entrance of the canteen.

Her cell phone rang.

It was Henson calling. Wendy asked Joye to go inside first. She then walked away to pick up the phone.

"Hello."

"Where are you now?"

"What’s the wrong?"

"Can't I call just miss you?"

Wendy curled her lips.

"I'm having a meal. It's a little noisy here, so I'm hanging up."

Wendy then hung up directly and went into the restaurant.

Henson felt upset. So he shouted to the door, "Dayne, come in."

Dayne pushed the door to get in. "Sir?"

"How's the food of the canteens of our company?"

"I heard it was not bad."

"Right? OK, then let us go to eat there today."
