At that time , Joshua seemed to doubt that Wendy would order the security guard to send him away . Thus , he got into a dispute with the security guard . Fearing the fight would escalate and give her company a bad name , Wendy sent a female bodyguard to beat up Joshua . From that day onward , Joshua dared not go upstairs to her company’s office . Joshua also brought along a soup thermos containing the short rib soup he had made during his visit . However , the soup spilled all over the floor because of the clash . Later , the security guard reported that Joshua sat outside the company building for a while before returning inside to clean up the mess and leaving quietly . At that time , Wendy didn’t think much of it . She simply felt superb that she managed to drive Joshua away and stop him from continuing to pester her at the company . But now that she reflected on it , she wondered what Joshua was actually feeling when he left her company . At that time , he may have already known clearly that I forbade him to go upstairs to find me . Thinking of this , Wendy felt she could no longer hold back her tears . Suddenly , she couldn’t think straight . At this point , she could only put herself in Joshua’s shoes . I would probably fall into death of despair if I were in Joshua’s place . Slightly wiping away her tears , Wendy continued reading through the chat history . “ Today is Wendy’s birthday ! ‘ I heard Maddy say that Wendy will be home to celebrate her birthday . ‘ How nice ! I can see Wendy again ! ‘ Then , he added , ‘ Tom , Gwen , let’s go and pick out a gift together ! It’s my first time celebrating Wendy’s birthday after I saw her . In fact , I didn’t know when I last celebrated her birthday with her ! ‘ While thinking of a gift , Joshua texted Tom , asking , ‘ Hey , Tom . At first , I wanted to give Wendy a music box or a puppet doll . But Gwen told me that the baby’s breath was better . Well , I think she has a point . So , let’s get something with baby’s breath ! ‘ Since this is the first time I’ve given a gift to Wendy , I must pick the best gift ! ‘ ‘ Wendy will surely like this gift ! These baby’s breaths are gorgeous . Gwen and I managed to buy it after passing three streets . At first , the boss didn’t want to lower the price . Gwen and I had to negotiate for what seemed to be an eternity before the boss finally gave us a three – dollar discount ! ‘ Tom , look at these baby’s breaths . Aren’t they beautiful ? ‘ With that , a photo appeared inside the chatroom . 7:18 pm 14 . For a moment , the expression on Wendy’s face stiffened . Suddenly , some recollections emerged in her mind . Nonetheless , she abruptly shrugged them off and proceeded to read Joshua’s texts . ‘ Guys , Wendy threw away the gift with baby’s breath I gave her . I found it in the trash can and picked it up . I see … So , Wendy doesn’t like this kind of gift . ‘ Joshua seemed to be extremely repentant . He even sent a crying emoji to the chatroom after that . Oh , yes . Wendy remembered Joshua indeed had given her a gift on her birthday . But Joshua’s lamblike attitude irked her so much . As a result , when she opened the gift box and saw that it was a dirt cheap crystal ball containing baby’s breath , she casually threw his gift in the trash can . Even so , she recalled she threw it away without Joshua’s knowledge . She didn’t even let him see , for God’s sake . Yet , Joshua found it in the trash can the next day . Suddenly , something crossed Wendy’s mind . With tears streaming down her cheeks nonstop , she swiftly stormed out of her room and ran toward the second floor . In two shakes , she arrived at Joshua’s room . She pushed the door open , approached the cabinet , and searched through it . As expected , she found the crystal ball containing the baby’s breath . Wendy hyperventilated . Her fingers trembled in disbelief as she carefully opened the crystal ball with baby’s breath , only to find a card on top . ‘ Happy birthday , Wendy . I wish you would be joyful every day , smile as bright as the sun , and have a life as beautiful as a painting ! Love , Joshua . At once , Wendy remembered the day they celebrated her birthday . Joshua timidly took out his gift and warily passed it to her . After the day the security guard kicked him out , Joshua had become somewhat fearful of her . Hence , he really didn’t dare to approach her . When he took out the gift , his face was full of uneasiness . At that time , never once did it cross Wendy’s mind that Joshua’s gift would hold such significance . As such , she threw it into the trash can after glancing at it . To her surprise , Joshua still eventually discovered it , retrieved it from the trash can , and placed it at the bottom of this drawer . Wendy had never realized she could be such a jerk until now . Nonetheless , she couldn’t figure out how Joshua found out she had thrown away the gift he had carefully picked . 7:18 pm 44 . Although Wendy couldn’t catch the drift of the emotions Joshua harbored while doing all this , she was certainly well aware that she was a top student and a graduate of a prestigious university . In the eyes of others , she had always been one of the brilliant and competent individuals . She was always intelligent , wise , and rational . As such , taking charge of a large corporation was as easy as pic to her . Yet , she never thought someone as outstanding as herself could have done something so vile . 7:18 pm fff .
