Daddy! Come Home for Dinner! - Chapter 636
Chapter 636: Chapter 636: Going to the Competition
Therefore, even if Edward Lopez is fickle, Wendy Clarke knows that it is difficult for herself to tie him down.
But she still wants to give it a try.
If she misses Edward Lopez, she doesn’t know if she will have the chance to find someone else of his level.
Of course, in her heart, she also wants to use Edward Lopez as a stepping stone.
Being in Belfard and having a longer relationship with Edward Lopez, she will definitely work hard to find opportunities to attend some gatherings in their social circle together.
If she can meet someone more suitable, she wouldn’t need Edward Lopez anymore.
But before that, she still needs to cling to him.
This is a bit difficult for Wendy Clarke.
After all, there are too many girls around Edward Lopez, young and beautiful.
Her advantage is that she is wealthy, has a career, independent, and walks the path of a strong woman.
Unlike those girls, she doesn’t need to rely on him and doesn’t seem to care about his money because she has money herself.
But just doing this is not enough, flirting with Edward Lopez, giving him some sweetness, but not completely giving in to him.
After all, there’s a saying, what you can’t get is always seductive.
As long as Edward Lopez gets a taste and can’t get her,
Wendy Clarke doesn’t believe he won’t be tempted, won’t remember her, and won’t want to possess her.
Coming to Belfard this time, besides causing trouble for Cindy Clarke, she also wants to find Edward Lopez.
Even if there was no Cindy, she would come sooner or later.
She must break into a higher social circle and meet wealthier people who are more suitable for marriage.
Her goal of marrying into a wealthy family has never changed.
Edward Lopez has been back in Belfard for such a long time, and she doesn’t know how many more women he has around him or if he has forgotten her.
Whether he is still interested in her or not.
Wendy Clarke took a deep breath, waiting for Edward Lopez to answer the phone.
It didn’t take long for Edward Lopez to answer the phone.
“Wendy Clarke?” Edward Lopez’s voice came through the phone.
“It’s me.” Wendy Clarke laughed softly, “I just arrived in Belfard today.”
Edward Lopez raised his eyebrows slightly and asked with a hint of surprise in his tone, “What are you doing in Belfard?”
Wendy Clarke chuckled charmingly and coldly, saying, “You didn’t think I came for you, did you?”
Edward Lopez raised one eyebrow again: “Isn’t it?”
Wendy Clarke laughed sarcastically and said, “I came to find my sister. I just found out she’s in Belfard. I rushed over after finishing up my work in Nork City.”
“It just happens that you and Ella Doone are both in Belfard, so I contacted you. You didn’t think I would come here and contact you first, did you?” Wendy Clarke spoke as if she didn’t care about Edward Lopez.
“Anyway, besides contacting my sister in Belfard, I have nothing else to do. I just thought if you guys have time, we can get together.” Wendy said.
“Well, that’s it. Gotta go.” Wendy Clarke hung up the phone before Edward Lopez could say anything.
Edward Lopez looked at the hung-up mobile phone and raised his eyebrows.
He knew Wendy Clarke’s approach, acting indifferent but inviting. She wants to play hard to get, but did not think it would work on him.
However, Wendy Clarke’s little scheming was interesting to him.
At least it could maintain some freshness, and he wouldn’t get tired of her too quickly.
He could play along with her for a while.
After hanging up the phone, Wendy Clarke immediately called Ella Doone.
She had already told Edward Lopez that she had contacted Ella Doone.
If Edward Lopez were to ask Ella Doone later, she hadn’t contacted her, wouldn’t it expose her lie?
So, she had to contact Ella Doone before Edward Lopez did.
It didn’t take long for Ella Doone to answer the phone.
Wendy Clarke immediately switched to a cheerful and enthusiastic tone: “Ella, it’s me, Wendy Clarke.”
“Wendy Clarke?” Ella Doone laughed, “Why did you suddenly call?”
Ella Doone doesn’t have strong feelings about Wendy Clarke, good or bad.
Ella Doone doesn’t feel close to her.
The two of them were introduced by Erica Yves.
But Ella Doone is still cautious with people and won’t easily confide in them.
With a clear-headed mother like Brenda Wright teaching her on regular days, and the influence of inherited personality traits,
Ella Doone wouldn’t be easily fooled.
Even when it comes to Edward Lopez, Ella Doone’s relationship with him isn’t all that great.
They are just ordinary friends hanging out together, forming a group when the timing is right, and having fun together.
Nothing more than that.
Being friends with these people, they can help each other in business later on.
If they are really close friends, it depends on how deep the interests are intertwined.
Therefore, Ella Doone still maintains a superficial enthusiasm towards Wendy Clarke.
She doesn’t offend her, but their friendship isn’t deep.
“I’m here in Belfard to handle some things and thought of you guys having fun in Belfard. So, I contacted you to see when you have time and we can get together. When we were in Nork City, you guys didn’t stay long, and we didn’t get to hang out for very long.” Wendy Clarke said.
“Sure,” Ella Doone nodded in agreement, “Did you come to Belfard for business?”
“No, just taking care of some personal affairs.” Wendy Clarke replied.
“I see,” Ella Doone thought for a moment and said, “We’re here to have fun, and we have plenty of time, with no particularly important matters. It’s better to see when you’re available to meet up.”
Wendy Clarke nodded and said, “How about tomorrow?”
“Tomorrow…” Ella Doone hesitated for a moment.
Wendy Clarke scoffed in her heart. Ella Doone had just said they had time anytime, and now she hesitated when Wendy Clarke asked about it.
Wendy Clarke wondered if Ella Doone was doing it on purpose.
Is it possible that Ella Doone has some intentions towards Edward Lopez too?
So, she speaks nicely on the surface, but when it comes time to meet up, she finds excuses to avoid it.
Wendy Clarke then asked hesitantly, “Do you guys have anything going on tomorrow?”
Ella Doone laughed and said, “There’s nothing too important, actually. We just bought tickets for the Cooking Competition tomorrow. We’re going to see it. When we were in Nork City, we heard that this competition is very exciting. We happen to be in Belfard now and figured we didn’t have anything else to do, so we’re going to watch the competition.”
There are many famous spots in Belfard, but Ella Doone and her friends won’t go to these spots like tourists with a full daily schedule.
The Doones also have property in Belfard, and Ella Doone usually lives in their villa in Belfard.
They go to the sights when they feel like it, or maybe go shopping at a mall, have a cup of coffee, or go to a famous restaurant, then visit the spot.
They enjoy themselves leisurely and don’t care about time. They leave when they’ve had enough fun.
