Mr. Charles's Hidden Wife novel Chapter 105

Gorman frowned to see Wendy hurrying into the office with her bag still across her breast. So he shouted Wendy stop. “Stop there.”

Wendy sighed in her heart and stopped her steps. When you were doomed to get bad luck, any small thing would cause big trouble to you.

Wendy stood still to look at Gorman, "Mr. Taylor, what's wrong?"

"Miss Evans, do you remember the rule that when you are late for work, you will be deducted one point in the evaluation system."

Wendy click her phone to turn it on. It was still a minute to eight.

So she showed him the time on her phone and said, "There's still one minute left, so I'm not late."

Gorman clenched his teeth to take a step to her.

But Wendy took a step back to keep the distance.

Gorman's voice was intimidating, "What? After being his girlfriend, you don't even want to go to work on time? Or you want to say that you have been addictive to him and his bed?"

Da*n Gorman. Why could not he just let her go?

Fine, then, she could also play with him.

Wendy smiled to Gorman. "Yes, I suddenly feel every second becomes so precious with him. I really hope I can stay with him all the time. But Mr. Taylor, you're wrong about one thing. I'm not late."

Wendy then pushed the door open to walk into the office. Then she slammed the door behind her.

Gorman was angry but he could only gnash his teeth and storm out of the building.

Three gazes landed on her immediately when she went into the office.

Wendy smiled awkwardly. "Good morning."

Carmen smiled to make fun of her, "My darling. You were almost late."

"I am too tired these days. It's so hard to get up early in the morning."

"You will finally get used to it." said Linda with a smile.

"Yes, she is right. At the first year here, I thought I could have enough spare time to make preparations for my postgraduate exam while being a good assistant teacher too. But it turned that I was so young and naive. But after a year's hard work, I finally found a good balance between my work and study at the second year."

Wendy just smiled and sat down. Cael added, "We all had a tough time in this job. Just like now, I still have to go to the student union.

I would always think that I am more a babysitter than a teacher. Bye now."

Cael's joke amused them all.

In the whole morning, Wendy had been tidying up the information of all the students. 

Soon it's the lunch time. "Miss Evans, how about eating together?" asked Linda.

"Fine."

"Then we can go to the cafeteria." She said as she waved the food card in her hand.

"Alright, let's go." Wendy nodded. 

After getting her bag, she followed Linda downstairs.

But when they just walked out of the office building, a woman stepped out of a car and walked to them.

She bowed to Wendy with two lunch boxes in her hand. "Miss Evans."

She was surprised to see Deena here.

"Hi, Deena. why are you here?"

"Mr. Charles ask me to take the lunch for you."

Deena then handed over the lunchboxes to Wendy.

Wendy took the lunchboxes but she was still in a shock.

Why would Henson ask Deena to bring her food?

There was a canteen here.

"Miss Evans, after you finish your lunch, please just keep them until I send you the new lunchboxes next day."

Tomorrow?

Wendy still felt puzzled. But more and more gazes were coming to her from the passersby, so she could just say hurriedly, "Deena, thank you. You can go back now. I will call Mr. Charles to thank him later."

"Okay, please take the time to enjoy the lunch."

Deena then got in the car and left.

"It looks like that I have to go to the cafeteria alone." said Linda.

"Sorry, I don't expect this." Wendy apologized to Linda.

"A good surprise, isn't it? Colorful life is good." Linda said and patted in her shoulder. "Then I am leaving to the canteen first. Bye bye.

"

Wendy nodded her head. After they parted, she went back to the office and immediately dialed Henson's number.

"How rare it is for our Miss Evans to call me! Let me guess, it is because the lunchboxes, right?" Henson picked up the phone, and spoke in a satisfied voice to her.

"Why didn't you tell me this before?"

"Because it's a surprise. How could I let you know first?"

"But you scared me, okay?" Wendy said helplessly, "Deena said that she would come here again tomorrow. Are you planning to bring me the lunch everyday?"

"Yes."

"Please don't." Wendy refused instantly, "We have a canteen here."

"But you still did not eat your lunch yesterday, right?"

"It's just a special situation yesterday. I came back too late so that it's closed."

"Yes, your canteen won't wait for you to get lunch, but Deena could not only cook but also wait for you."

"Thanks. But please stop this. I don't want to be talked about."

"You won't be troubled by that, or you would not have chosen to stay at the university. Besides, I have my own reasons to do so. You should just eat your lunch, then I can also go to eat dinner at your place. I don’t want to owe you."

"Then we can just cancel the dinners. That will be more fair."

"I just send the food for your own good. But you are trying to cancel my rights to eat the dinners with you. Nice try! But I refuse this suggestion. I am busy now. If you have any other things want to say, we can talk about them later at tonight. But you need to know clearly that I won't accept your objections in the end."

Henson then hung up first.

She stared at the lunchboxes, thinking that things seemed to be out of her control now.

At first, she thought their relationship would came to an end naturally after she finished the tutoring for Howell.

After that, she believed firmly that after the internship at his company, she would have no contact with him anymore.

Then… She thought Henson just had a short crush on her for she was so different from those girls he ever knew before.

So if she kept refusing him, he would give up her in the end.

But why was he becoming even more stubborn than her?

Was he really taking her seriously now?

But there was no future for them at all.

Couldn't he really see that they were from the different worlds?

A bird in the sky and a fish in the water . How can they have a same future?

The longer she spent with him, the more sad she owed him.

But what could she do to make him give up on her now?lightnoveldaily.com
