Mr. Charles's Hidden Wife novel Chapter 184

swnovels.com What Avril didn't know, was that Henson wasn't looking at her, but was looking at Wendy, who was standing behind her instead.

He turned to face his bodyguard and ordered, "Go stop the students from coming out of the basketball court," 

"On it, sir," his bodyguard replied curtly and

returned to the court.

Henson then walked to her side, his face full of cold indifference. 

"I literally just recommended the most popular kid on campus to your president for the shoot. If making you the campus representative for the promotional pamphlet is enough to make you like me and want to make me your boyfriend, then I can easily phone the president up to tell him to change representatives. 

"Also, if the reason you want to be my girlfriend is because you're gunning for the position of mistress in the Charles family, I suggest you stop daydreaming already. I'll just hand it to you straight - you're absolutely not qualified to be my woman at all," he sneered. 

"That's not it," she said and shook her head. She looked like she was on the verge of tears. "I just really like and admire you, sir," she said shakily. 

He scoffed. "Then, do you know the kind of person I really am?" he snapped.

"You-" she said and took a deep breath before continuing, "You're handsome, gentle, kind, smart, and is a man who's admired by all," 

"Heh, so that's the ME you like?" he pressed.

She nodded in response.

"Well then, I'm afraid you've got the wrong person as I'm clearly not up to your standards. I'll have you know I'm a cold-blooded man who even treats the people close to him like sh*t," he sneered, raised an eyebrow and continued, "Let me give you some advice, young lady. It's not good to be so ambitious sometimes. I'm willing to turn a blind eye to everything that happened today, so you better not do something so shameless as to stop a man in the middle of his tracks just to force a love confession onto him next time. It's unsightly,"

With that, he spun around to get on his car. After his car left, his bodyguards slowly hopped on their respective cars as well. 

Wendy could only stare at the pitiful-looking Avril from behind her. 

So this was how venomous his tongue could be. 

She reckoned Avril must be devastated after being on the receiving end of his relentless verbal onslaught. 

Carmen and Cael merely exchanged looks before leaving together as

they saw that some students had started exiting the court as well. 

Linda shouted for Wendy to leave with them shortly after. 

After she caught up to Linda, she looked behind her to see a lifeless-looking Avril being squished by a massive wave of students. 

Wendy frowned and immediately walked over to her to pull her out of the crowd. She then sat her down on a lawn nearby.

Avril immediately started bawling her eyes out.

Wendy didn't say anything as she merely handed her a few pieces of tissue. She then promptly tailed behind Linda to leave together.

"The way Master Henson was just now was super scary. I honestly thought he was just like us common folk, judging by the way you talked to him over the phone last time," Linda commented.
