Chapter 372 Being Hugged Three Times in One Day
Wendy heard the sound of Caspian closing the door as he left the room. She sighed, slowly eating the spaghetti. After just a couple of bites, she suddenly put down her fork, grabbed her phone, took a picture, and posted it on social media with the caption: [First meal he made for me, delicious!]
Just after posting, Angela called her again.
"Wendy, I was busy when you called me this morning. What's up?"
Wendy took a bite of spaghetti and said with a bit of pride, "The issue is resolved."
"Spill it, what happened? Tell me quickly!" Angela asked with a laugh.
Wendy didn't intend to hide anything from her and told her everything in detail.
Finally, Wendy said, "You not being in Ridgewood worked out for me."
After listening, Angela pondered for a moment and said, "Wendy, it's normal to have such selfish thoughts. But I must warn you, don't impulsively have sex with him! That's a common mistake girls make when pursuing a guy!"
"How could I!" Wendy exclaimed, "I have my boundaries. Besides, Caspian isn't that kind of person."
Angela sneered, "Don't think too highly of him. From my perspective, he's a carefree guy who could do anything outrageous, and I wouldn't be surprised. Anyway, since you're living with him, make sure to control your feelings and protect yourself!"
"Okay, I know." Wendy obediently said, then asked, "When are you coming back? The vacation is almost over."
Angela said, "I plan to spend the rest of the vacation in Atlanta."
"Why?"
"Atlanta had a big snowfall this year, and I want to see the snow."
Someone called Angela in the background, and she hurriedly said, "I'm busy here, let's talk later."
Wendy put her phone aside and thought to herself, 'Talking about seeing the snow, I bet you're waiting for him again!'
The spaghetti tasted right, and Wendy finished them all. She obediently pushed the table to the foot of the bed, leaned against the headboard, and watched her tablet. Molly, who had eaten her fill outside, came back, jumped onto the bed, and snuggled into Wendy's blanket.
One person and one dog watched an entertaining show together, one laughing happily, the other quietly accompanying her.
At a club, Caspian saw it was past eight and said to Tom and Theodore, who were sitting across from him, "I need to head back. You two continue."
He was about to leave when Tom grabbed his wrist with a mischievous smile and asked, "Caspian, heading home so early? Got a girlfriend?"
"Don't talk nonsense, I'm just tired." Caspian lightly hit him, "You should head back early too. Look, Mr. Wellington can barely keep his eyes open."
Theodore, struggling to stay awake, said, "I've pulled two all-nighters in a row. I really can't take it anymore. Tom, let's call it a night."
"Are you leaving too?" Tom said, "I was planning to hit the bar later."
"Tom, we're getting old, can't handle it anymore. Find someone else to go with you." Theodore patted his shoulder and stood up to leave with Caspian.
"So boring. Alexander isn't home, and you guys won't hang out with me either!" Tom grumbled as he stood up to leave with them.
"Even if Alexander were home, he wouldn't come out to play. He wouldn't want to leave Lillian alone." Caspian teased.
Leaving the club, Caspian got into his car. Theodore worried about driving while tired, hitched a ride with Tom. They parted ways in front of the club.
As the driver turned the car around, Tom looked out the window and noticed Caspian's car heading in a different direction. He couldn't help but voice his confusion.
"What's up?" Theodore asked.
"Why is Caspian heading that way? His place isn't in that direction." Tom told the driver, "Follow him."
Theodore said, "Maybe he has something else to do?"
"Doesn't matter, I'm curious to see where he's going."
They followed Caspian's car to a neighborhood. Theodore was familiar with this place; Caspian used to host gatherings here for Evelyn's convenience after work.
"Is he living here now?" Theodore asked, puzzled.
Tom's car was stopped by the security guard.
"We're friends of Caspian, came back with him." Theodore rolled down the window and told the guard.
The guard, recognizing Theodore, respectfully said, "Mr. Wellington, long time no see. Go ahead, Caspian's car has already gone in."
"Thanks, appreciate it." Theodore raised the window.
At this point, Theodore couldn't help but be curious too. He didn't believe Caspian would come here for no reason.
Tom, initially planning to bribe the guard to let them in, was impressed by how Theodore handled it with just a few words and gave him a thumbs up, "Nice one!"
"I used to come here often, got familiar with the guards."
Wendy saw it was almost nine, and Caspian still hadn't returned. She wanted to message him on Facebook but felt it wasn't appropriate. So she kept watching one show after another.
Suddenly, she heard the door open, and Molly jumped off the bed, running out.
"Did I wake you up?" Caspian asked softly, holding Molly.
Wendy's voice came from the room, "We're not asleep yet!"
Caspian walked to her room door, hands in his pockets, leaning against the door frame. Seeing the table at the foot of the bed, he nodded approvingly, "Good, you're being obedient."
Noticing the slippers on the floor, he asked, "Did you get out of bed?"
"Of course, I had to use the bathroom!" Wendy said, annoyed.
Caspian thoughtfully replied, "I overlooked that."
"Caspian, can I take a shower?" Wendy asked.
"The doctor didn't say you couldn't, but you have to stand while showering, so I suggest you don't."
"But I'll feel uncomfortable if I don't shower. Can you get me a plastic stool? I'll just sit and rinse off."
Seeing her insistence, Caspian agreed. Girls do like to stay clean.
He brought a plastic chair with a backrest and placed it under the shower, then returned to Wendy's room.
"Where do you keep your change of clothes?" Caspian asked nonchalantly.
But Wendy felt awkward just thinking about him getting her underwear.
Just as she hesitated and was about to say "Never mind," Caspian quickly opened the closet, pulled out three drawers, and found her underwear in one of them.
"Sorry, I figured you wouldn't want me to help, so I took the liberty to find them myself."
Caspian showed no interest in the pink underwear he held, walked to the bed, placed them in her hand, and then scooped her up by her back and knees, standing up straight.
Being carried by him three times in one day, Wendy felt like she had won a prize and was very happy!
