Chapter 154: It Could Not Be Wendy
Chapter 154: It Could Not Be Wendy
Wendy felt wronged.
In the presence of his grandma, Hunter's voice, which was flat, carried a trace of tenderness.
But now, he spoke to her in such a cold tone.
It was unfair!
However, she did not dare to lose her temper now. At the very least, she had to wait until Hunter fell in deep love with her.
Only then could she complain.
Looking up at Hunter, Wendy showed pain and grievances on her face.
“My ... waist hurts. I'm sorry ...”
She supported herself with the flower bed by her side, intending to stand up. But hardly did she succeed than she fell back.
Then she turned to look up at Hunter again, seeming so helpless that tears almost welled out of her eyes.
“I'm sorry, Hunter. I ... I can’t stand up. Wait for a few more minutes.”
Hunter glanced at Ewan, who immediately bent forward and said to Wendy, “Let me help you.”
Wendy was disappointed. Didn't Hunter promise his grandma that he would take care of her in the future?
Now she was bullied. Hunter only punished the bullies, but didn’t take care of her.
Was this the so-called “care”?
Wendy kept looking at Hunter, as if she didn’t dare to do anything before receiving Hunter's order.
However, Hunter had already turned around, walking towards the WongRiver Pavilion.
How could he leave her alone?
“Miss Gale, let me help you up and take you back.” Standing by her side, Ewan reached out towards her.
Wendy convinced herself that Hunter couldn't show care for her in public, since he had been engaged.
After all, the Jacksons were here.
Hunter asked his subordinate to take care of her, which, at least, showed that Hunter cared about her.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have grounded Snowy and forced her to reflect on her misdeed?
Besides, Renee was tortured so badly because of her.
Thinking about this, Wendy cheered up.
Placing her hand on Ewan’s palm, she gently panted, “My waist ... hurts very much. Please be gentle.”
“Alright.” Ewan gently supported her and helped her up.
“Did you intend to go out? I'll take you to the garage.”
“l... Lean’t walk now. I...”
“Are you badly injured?” Ewan thought that girls were not as forceful as men, and Renee shouldn't have caused Wendy
severely injured by simply kicking her.
But Wendy appeared to be seriously injured.
Wendy lowered her head to conceal her emotion. “I have been weak since childhood. I'm sorry ..”
Ewan suggested, “Miss Gale, how about I taking you to the WongRiver Pavilion to visit the doctor.”
“Not necessary. I'll just go take a rest. There's no need to visit the doctor.”
She finally was allowed to visit the WongRiver Pavilion.
Wendy was filled with joy, feeling as if her dream was to come true.
As was known to all, Hunter's WongRiver Pavilion was not readily accessible. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Snowy and Renee were not allowed to go there no matter how hard they had tried.
But now, she was granted permission.
After returning to the WongRiver Pavilion, Hunter went straight into the study and never came out again.
Wendy was enjoying her time at leisure.
According to the matriarch, Hunter had promised his grandma that he would protect Wendy in the future.
It was acknowledged that with the admirer’s backing, one did not fear anything.
After Snowy was grounded, Wendy thought that no one in this house would dare to bully her in the future.
As Wendy was in a pleasant mood, a slender figure appeared in the courtyard outside the hall.
What a coincidence! Wendy didn't expect to meet her here.
Noticing that Ewan had left, Wendy stood up.
Before Emily entered inside, Wendy stopped her outside the hall.
“Why are you here?” Emily had been staying at school over the past two days. She had no idea what happened to the
Jackson family.
Three days ago, Wendy came. Emily didn't expect that she was still here.
Strangely enough, Wendy wasn't at the matriarch’s room, but in Hunter’s WongRiver Pavilion.
Everyone was allowed in now?
“Hunter invited me. Why can't I be here?”
Wendy's lips pouted invitingly. She always tried to reveal her most beautiful side.
Even when she was facing Emily, the person that she hated the most.
Ignoring Wendy, Emily tried to bypass her and went inside.
Liam sent Emily over. Emily didn’t know why Hunter invited her here.
Emily hadn't expected that she would run into Wendy. Apart from that, Emily felt nothing else strange.
In no way would Wendy let Emily inside easily. She stretched her arms and stopped Emily.
“Hunter is working. Are you going to disturb him?”
“Hunter invited me here. Why can't I go to meet him?” Emily was expressionless.
“Emily, I don’t mean to embarrass you. But you have to know what's going on here. Now that I’m here, you're not needed anymore.”
Emily looked at Wendy. How could this woman always be so self-righteous?
“I'm afraid you are not in the place to decide whether I can come here or not.”
When Emily was about to leave, Wendy stepped forward. As a result, they ran into each other.
Having been knocked to the ground, Wendy instantly shouted, “Emily, what are you doing?”
Emily felt disgusted with this kind of trick.
However, someone was so foolish that he cannot see it through!
Ewan happened to come out of the hall. On seeing Wendy falling on the ground, he immediately rushed over.
“Miss Wendy, what's going on? Did you get hurt?”
To Emily's surprise, Hunter's subordinate addressed her Miss Wendy!
Emily frowned but didn’t say anything.
Ewan helped Wendy up and looked at Emily with vigilance.
“Milady, Miss Wendy is Mr. Hunter's distinguished guest. Please be nice with her.”
“What are you talking about?” Emily's face darkened.
Be nice with Wendy? What did he mean? Did Wendy succeed to deceive Ewan with such a trick?
The best bodyguard of Hunter should feel shame on his poor judgement!
Ewan knew that his words would definitely make Emily unhappy.
However, he had to obey Hunter's order.
“Mr. Hunter views Miss Wendy as his sister. It would be disrespectful for Mr. Hunter if you are not nice with Miss Wendy,’' he said in a flat voice.
Sister!
Wendy was shocked. This was not what she wanted!
She didn't want to be Hunter's sister. She wished to be his wife!
The matriarch asked Hunter to protect her, which, Wendy thought, was far from enough!
She had to get rid of Emily!
Otherwise, there would be endless troubles!
However, to Emily, Wendy's new identity hurt her like a blade.
This identity was bullshit. This was just a cover for their shameful relationship.
No relationship like this was platonic.
Emily was OK with Hunter having a romantic relationship with other woman, for she knew Hunter would leave her in the future.
But it could not be Wendy.
In her previous life, Wendy killed Emily!
Wendy, absolutely not!
