Chapter 600
Wanda realized she was too excited and quickly covered her mouth. Given her current relationship with Bianca, she felt confident that the latter would lend her the phone. She would then be able to contact Christine and the others.
It had been over a month since they founded SwiftFunds Financial Investments. She was eager to know the company's status.
Maisie glanced at Wanda, feeling slightly uneasy as she did so. Her best friend had asked her to bring Wanda along that day to pick up the supplies, but she was not told about the reason behind the request.
Several loud honks immediately interrupted the housemaids' chatter. Bianca and Wanda both turned their attention to the entrance. A truck had stopped outside the gate.
Carlisle, who was in the passenger seat, immediately spotted Wanda, who stood inside the gate. He trembled all over, and his hands clenched into fists in his lap.
His lips trembled, and his eyes were tinged red with tears.
Wendell coughed twice, reminding Carlisle to control his emotions. He had already told Carlisle while they were on the road that the security personnel here were all retirees like him.
They had keen observational skills. Although it benefited them, they couldn't be too obvious. Kevin grinned and said, "Boss, Ms. Wanda is looking at you too..."
Carlisle looked toward the gate again and realized Wanda was staring in his direction.
However, Wanda wasn't wearing her glasses. The gate was 164 feet away, and because she was shortsighted, it was impossible for her to see him clearly.
Moreover, Wanda no longer remembered him. Even if she could see him, she probably wouldn't recognize him.
Bianca noticed Wanda staring at the truck in a daze at the rehabilitation hospital entrance. She asked curiously, "Wanda, what are you looking at?"
"I don't know why, but my heart suddenly started racing..." Wanda murmured.
"That's because you haven't seen outsiders for too long, resulting in social anxiety. When people with social anxiety see strangers, their heartbeats will increase," analyzed Bianca with hands behind her back.
"That's probably it."
Wanda tucked her hair behind her ear as it had been blown loose by the cold wind.
The delivery driver had conveyed a message from Carlisle last time, so Wanda had sent a
letter through Bianca asking Christine about Carlisle.
Since Christine was her classmate from high school to college, Wanda figured the former would recognize Carlisle. Christine would then inform Carlisle about Wanda if she knew anything.
If the delivery driver knew Carlisle, he might deliver another message from him this time. Wanda stared at the driver's seat, hoping the current driver was the same as before.
At that moment, Wendell and his group got out of the truck. Colton checked their identities with his information sheet.
Beside Colton stood a stern-looking man in a suit.
"Guys, didn't you verify our identities before this?"
Wendell deliberately looked impatient.
Colton glared at Wendell.
"This is our job!" he retorted.
Wendell shrugged, then laughed sheepishly.
"Alright. I won't say another word."
Colton turned to the last page, which contained Howard's personal information. The man in the suit glanced at it as well. He noticed the information stated that the man was 21 years old. He furrowed his brow and asked, "You're 21 years old?"
