Hearing her pitiful tone, Ben felt sorry for her. He sighed and turned to look at her. "Can you promise
me a few things?" Wendy's eyes lit up. She nodded excitedly, "Okay, go ahead. I will promise you
everything!" "I haven't said anything yet!"
"Just say it. I can promise you everything. Now think about it. Have I ever refused you?"
However, Ben didn't respond. He was organizing his words. How could he make her not angry and
agree to his request easily?
"Are you ok? I'll go to work after lunch! "asked Wendy. Hearing that, Ben came to his senses and
glared at her. "Even if you are going to work, you can do it tomorrow!"
"No... No... Don't... Don't... " Wendy shook her head.
"He has made a rule that I must go this afternoon, and I can't be late!" With a dark face, Ben said,
"Then listen to him!"
"No, I'll listen to you. Do you have a problem? If there's no problem, I'll clean it up! "
With a frown, Ben said slowly, "Okay, then promise me a few things and I'll let you go!"
"Tell me, I will promise you!" Wendy blinked at him and said affirmatively.
Looking at her happy face, Ben said slowly, "First, don't work overtime. Eat on time and don't eat those
snacks secretly!"
"Okay, no problem. But as for working overtime, well... It seems that there is no problem. He didn't
mention working overtime to me when he said so. I will use a small trick to escape from working
overtime. In short, the first rule is that I promise you, no problem! "
With a dark face, Ben looked at her and asked innocently, "Okay, you say the second!"
"Second, no matter how busy you are at work, you have to take medicine!"
"Well, although I don't like taking medicine, I will take it because my body is my own!"
"I'm afraid that you'll forget to take the medicine because you're too busy. I'm not with you! "
"Well, I see. You can continue!" Wendy said flatly.
After a moment's hesitation of him, Wendy smiled weirdly and said, "Don't hesitate, Ben. Let's get
straight to the point. I know the point is now!" Ben looked at the weird smile on Wendy's face. He had a
feeling that his mind was seen through.
"Third, you... You should behave yourself! "
Wendy frowned, "What do you mean by behaving myself? What do you mean? "
"That is, you have to keep a distance from Howard!" Staring at the smiling face of Wendy, Ben bit the
bullet to say it out. However, just as he expected, Wendy looked at him with her eyes wide open.
Feeling a pang of guilt, Ben hurriedly explained, "I didn't say anything about you. I just want to say that
Howard is too insidious, so you should stay away from him!"
"I didn't say anything!" Wendy calmly stared at his face. She said calmly, but her calm tone still made
him feel a kind of inexplicable uneasiness. This cunning girl!
"Well, that's enough. The most important thing is that you haven't fully recovered yet. You must take
care of yourself and have a good rest. If necessary, you can negotiate with Howard and require to get
off work early!"
"Ben, you... If I get off work earlier alone, are there any rules? No, I won't discuss this with him! "
"Okay, but try your best!" Ben said awkwardly. He still didn't want her to go to work, but he just couldn't
stand her pitiful look. He loved her so much!
"Ben..." Hearing Wendy's words, Ben looked at her uneasily.
"Don't you believe me?" She looked at him seriously. Ben directly denied, "No, I mean... The man is
really insidious. Be careful! "
With a weird look on her face, Wendy stared at him and asked, "Are you serious?"
Feeling a little guilty, Ben quickly changed the topic, "Hey, aren't you hungry? What do you want to eat?
"
Wendy ignored his words and kept staring at his face. Seeing this, he felt guilty and said, "What's
wrong? Say it out!"
He pretended as if nothing had happened, and Wendy also looked away from his face as if nothing had
happened. Now she finally understood why he was worried about her health and didn't let her go to
work. He was worried about her and her health. In fact, it was not a good thing to say that he didn't
trust her.
Ben frowned and looked at the strange look on her face. It seemed that she was thinking about
something, like 'he didn't believe her. Humph... She would show him!'
"Ben, I'm not hungry now. I'm going to pack up and get ready for work!"
"No, tomorrow!" Said Ben. *
"No, you know better than I do. I can't be late this afternoon!"
He had no choice but to try to persuade her, "I compromised when you went to work with your disease.
It's just an afternoon. Can't you compromise on such a small matter? "
"Well..." Wendy was stunned, because Ben's words reminded her of what she said. She always asked
for his love unconditionally, but she did nothing. Just as Ben said, he agreed to let her go to work with
illness, but she refused to compromise for a whole afternoon.
"All right, Ben. But I have to ask for a leave from Howard!" Wendy had to compromise.
Seeing that she agreed, Ben sighed helplessly, "He will be just fine for the whole afternoon! Don't
worry! He is strict, but he is not that heartless! "
Wendy looked at him seriously and said, "Humph, you don't know what kind of person he is. He is a
heartless man. When I think of him now, I feel a headache. He must have a lot of work to do!"
"I told you not to go!"
"No, I'm going!" She said peremptorily.
Ben had no choice but to look at her happy face reluctantly. After a long time, maybe he felt a little
sorry for her. She looked at him seriously and said, "Ben, I won't eat the ice cream. You let me go to
work!"
Her words made Ben at a loss whether to cry or to laugh. He couldn't help but poke her head with his
finger. "Your body is yours. You have to bargain with me everywhere!"
She jumped into his arms with a smile and acted like a spoiled child. "Next time you can also bargain
with me. I will promise you everything!"
"Okay..." He replied indifferently.
On the second day, Wendy did go to work. As soon as she sat down, a shadow covered her head. She
frowned, and then a man's faint voice came from above, "Late!"
Wendy couldn't help but roll her eyes. This devil didn't care about her health at all. She raised her head
and stared at him with some unwillingness. She raised her wrist and showed him the watch. "There are
still fifteen seconds left!"
He was stunned for a moment. Looking at her serious face, he smiled imperceptibly. "I thought you
wouldn't come!" No wonder no one wanted him. Of course she could sense the irony in his words.
"I was going to work today!" 'Obviously, even if you didn't call me yesterday, I would come today.' *
"HMM... A hard-working employee. Not bad! " He stared at her face with his grim black eyes and said
gently.
Wendy frowned, but said nothing. He couldn't help laughing, "Why are you so serious?" The corners of
Wendy's mouth froze. She raised her head and looked at Howard.
"How are you?" Howard said in a serious and indifferent tone, while Wendy widened her eyes in
astonishment. She had thought that he would come to find fault with her again!
"En. Much better. Thank you! " Wendy replied politely after a long pause.
"Of course you will be fine as long as he takes care of you!" Howard commented meaningfully.
"Look, I guess you will come back to him in the end!"
The look in his eyes was a little complicated. With a faint smile, she lowered her eyes and said
hesitantly, "In fact... You are right. I blamed him, but when he came to me and said he loved me, my
heart couldn't help beating. I really can't deceive myself. I can understand what he has done. If he had
left Tracy behind and stayed by my side before, I would have looked down upon him. I'm sorry, really. If
you need me, I will help you. "As she spoke, her tone was much relaxed.
With a grim and bitter smile, Howard said, "No, thanks. I'm not in the mood because of you! "
After a moment's hesitation, she said, "Howard... I really can't explain it to you, but I love him! "
"I understand!" He said coldly.
"Are you cursing me that I won't be able to get married all my life?"
"No, I didn't curse you. If I want to curse you, I would be more vicious than you said!"
She couldn't help laughing and his face froze.
He looked at her quirky face helplessly and sighed, "Will he agree that you come to work here?"
"HMM... Of course not! " Wendy blinked and Howard's black eyes darkened. He could guess what he
was thinking without asking her!
"I don't have time to play with you!" Howard interrupted directly.
"No, I will introduce you to my parents and take you to see my brother!"
Wendy said with understatement. After pause, he looked at her carefully and seemed to be thinking
about what this woman was thinking about.
"I know... Sea Star Group now needs a lot of jewelry materials... " Wendy smiled
weirdly.
