Chapter 60 Wendy Quit the Entertainment Industry
Half a minute later, Wendy asked in a stiff voice, “Joe… what are you talking about? How could the child in my belly not be yours?”
Hearing her answer, Joe was very disappointed.
He took out a cigarette, lit it, leaned against the window, and said, “You should know that even if a man is drunk, he knows what happened. I didn’t touch you that night.”
Wendy was stunned.
She had always thought that she had hidden it well but didn’t expect Joe to know the truth from beginning to end!
“I…” Wendy opened her mouth and burst into tears. “I didn’t want to do this either. That day, the investor took advantage of the fact that I was drunk… I was really panicking. I was afraid that you would dislike me. I…”
The more she explained, the weaker her answer became. Wendy didn’t know what to say.
Joe was well aware of what had happened. When he heard that Wendy was still trying to find an excuse to deceive him, his voice became colder. “Apologize to Mia and tell the public that you’ve
retired from the entertainment industry and will come back after resting abroad for a period of time. The position of Mrs. Smith will still be yours.”
“Joe, are you really willing to marry me?” Wendy asked in a hoarse voice as she gently stroked her belly. “Then this child…”
“It’s up to you whether to give birth or not,” Joe said calmly. “I’ll leave the position of Mrs. Smith to you.”
Wendy knew that her insistence would only make Joe dislike her, so she reluctantly agreed.
After hanging up the phone, Wendy smashed the mirror in front of her into pieces.
The agent, Penny, who was alarmed by the noise, was stunned when she saw this scene. She hesitated and stepped forward. “Wendy, you…”
Wendy stared at her fiercely. “Prepare an apology statement. I will retire from the entertainment industry.”
“Huh?!” Penny was stunned. “But…”
“Hurry up!” Wendy shouted hysterically. Penny did not dare to speak and quickly ran out.
Half an hour later, Wendy’s apology statement made her the trend and she announced that she was about to quit the entertainment industry.
“Wendy apologized, Miss Clinton!”
Frank also saw this apology statement at the first time and sent it to Charlotte.
Charlotte raised her eyebrows in surprise. She had thought that Joe would protect Wendy like before but didn’t expect that he would ask her to retire so quickly.
But after thinking about it, it made sense. After all, Wendy was about to become Mrs. Smith, and the star identity in the entertainment industry was of little significance to her.
Seeing that Charlotte did not care, Frank did not say anything more and continued, “Mr. Smith is here.”
Charlotte pursed her lips. “Let him in.”
It was the first time that Joe had been brought into her office. Looking at Charlotte, who was sitting behind her desk in a professional suit, he suddenly recalled Mia, who had once sat at the dining table of the villa and smiled gently at him.
In just five years, she seemed to have completely changed into another person.
“I’ve already arranged for Wendy to go abroad. Don’t worry, she won’t bother you again in the future,” Joe took the initiative to say, “I heard from Grandpa that you saved his life…”
So it was because of Sir Smith.
Charlotte immediately understood. “It was just a piece of cake. At that time, I didn’t know he was Sir Smith.”
Speaking of this, Charlotte suddenly sneered. “Mr. Smith, you must have found out that I didn’t approach you on purpose, right?”
