Bain caught up with Wendy at the main entrance. Then he sidestepped Wendy to block her way.
Wendy looked at him. “What do you want to say?”
“This is what I want to ask. Don’t you need to explain anything to me about Henson Charles?”
“I have nothing to say about him.” Wendy frowned.
“Wendy, are you risking your whole life? How many times I have told you that Henson Charles is not a good choice for you. Why can’t you just listen to me?”
“Why can’t I be with him? He is good. Also, he and his family will not hurt me like you. He also treated me better and warmer than you.”
“Do you… fall in love with him?”
“Do you also want to say that I’m not qualified to like him?” Wendy raised her head. “We both are single. On what basis can you all say that I have no right to like him? Because I’m the illegitimate daughter of Nicholson family? Or only because your two families have the old grudges?”
“Your grudges, which I don’t even know what it is have nothing to me for I am a Nicholson.”
“But he will think you as a Nicholson. Coming close to you is not just his trick. He must have something other in his mind. i am your brother. How could I can harm you? Wendy, even all the men in the world will hurt you, I still won’t, do you understand that?”
Bain’s words instantly silenced Wendy.
She knew Bain would not harm her.
But… what else could she do?
She had rejected him many times.
She had also tried her best to stay away from his sight.
But Henson was also a good person. And she didn’t want to harm him at all.
She would not do harm to a person who treated her well.
“Bain, I won’t be a girlfriend with Henson. Please just stop saying those grudge things or his despicable purposes to get close to me. He has never hurt me. I’m a bit tired. So I am leaving now.”
Wendy then turned around, but Bain grabbed her by the wrist, “Let me give you a ride.”
Wendy shook her head. “I can go back by myself.”
She then pulled her wrist back and stepped away from him.
Bain heaved a long sigh. He then turned back to the house. Julia had already gone upstairs.
So he walked to Ken, “Don’t introduce those trash guys to Wendy anymore. Or I will tackle them myself. Dad, this is my last time to warn you that no one is allowed to touch Wendy.”
Bain did not wait there for any reply. After saying that, he walked upstairs indifferently.
Wendy was his.
No one could touch her, no one.
Wendy arrived at the front gate of the building. Then she stared at the parking space where Henson always parked his car for full 3 minutes. After coming to her sense, Wendy went upstairs.
She had wanted him to get away from her life, trying to keep distance with him before.
But now, she felt so sad that she missed him.
Henson’s embrace was truly warm.
Wendy slowly crouched down to wrap her arms around herself, so that she could imagine that someone was hugging her to comfort her.
A buzz came from the bag.
Wendy removed the bag from her shoulder and then took out her phone from it.
“The rich third master” were flashed on the screen of the phone.
Wendy unconsciously curved her lips into a smile. Then she immediately picked up the phone.
The phone suddenly got connected, which surprised Henson.
He didn’t speak a word, while Wendy also kept silent.
After a long time, Henson asked, “Where are you now?”
“At the front gate of the building.”
“Just arrived?”
“Um.”
“What’s wrong with you?”
Wendy clenched her fists. “No…”
Henson interrupted her and said first, “Don’t say that everything is OK. I know you’re in a bad mood.”
Wendy’s heart suddenly tightened. Tears welled up in her eyes, “Henson…”
“Yes, I’m here, what happened?”
Wendy took a deep breath and said to him, “I’m fine. I am just hungry now.”
Henson did not nail her lie. After a while, he just made an order, “Go upstairs to stay at home. I will come to find you soon.”
“No need for that. I’m going out to eat dinner. After that, I’ll sleep early. So just good night to you now. I am going to hang up.”
Thinking of what she had promised to Bain today again, Wendy shook her head.
She shouldn’t take advantage of Henson for she need warmth.
Getting him here when she needs warmth; kicking him away when she felt good.
That’s wrong.
Wendy then hung up soon.
She gathered some strength to walked out.
She was really hungry, which was not a lie.
Nearby was a small hamburg stall.
She had eaten it a few times before, and it was not bad.
She went over to take a seat. Tonight, she decided to turn her grief into a good appetite.
After Wendy finished the second hamburg, a voice sounded from behind her suddenly.
“Didn’t I tell you to wait me at home?”
Wendy letting out a cough, she turned around with a full mouth to look at him. “How can you find this place?”
“I have told you that even you live in the rat hole, I could still find you.” He said as he also took out a tissue to wipe her mouth.
Wendy was too embarrassed to see the dirty tissue. She then got a new one to clean her lips herself.
She smiled awkwardly and asked, “Have you eaten your dinner? How about joining me here? ”
“Do you think that I would eat this kind of food?”
“Why not? I’ve come here twice. The food here is Delicious.” Wendy said to hand her hamburg to him, “You can have a try.”
Henson frowned but did not move.
Wendy then pursed her lips. “I thought you were capable of anything.”
“I don’t need to eat dirty food to prove myself. After all, I don’t think my stomach is not a garbage dump.”
After he said that, there were quite a few people around glancing at him.
She felt embarrassed immediately. Fortunately, our ordinary people do not know too much about the financial news.
Otherwise, he would probably be criticized as being arrogant.
Wendy pulled Henson down to have a seat. Then she whispered to him, “Can you stop saying that? We don’t eat trash, wither. This is food, not trash. Show your respect to them.”
“But they are junks to me.”
“No, they are not. You must have a try. It’s really delicious. It’s a pity for you that you’ve never tried it before.”
Henson looked at her and asked, “Would you come back with me if we finish all these?”
Wendy nodded for this was her original plan too.
Even if she wanted stay here for a whole night, the owner of this stall would not allow her to stay here for such a long time.
Henson fetched her hamburg and tried his first bite.
He then raised his eyebrows with satisfactions. Yes, it’s… not bad.
But he just had a half of the hamburg and then put it down on the table. He could not tolerate to see the insanitary conditions of this small stall.
But on the contrary, Wendy seemed to have gone mad with hunger today. In a short while, she finished a new hamburg again.
Seeing that she seemed to plan to continue her eating here, Henson could not help but snatched the food out of her hands to place it on the table before pulling her up on her feet.
“Alright, you’ve eaten too much. Your stomach will suffer if you keep eating more.”
He then paid the bill and left with her.
They walking out from the alley, Wendy was still nagging, “Wait, we have not got our change!”
“What for? I have no enough room for them in my wallet. ”
Wendy looked at him speechlessly. He was truly… a prodigal capitalist.
Henson walked back to the car, and opened the door to take out a dessert box.
“You bought me the food?” asked Wendy in surprise.
“Didn’t you say that you’re hungry?”
