My Bossy CEO Husband

Chapter 214: I'm Sorry And Thank You 

Without feeling any remorse, Ryan deleted the phone number from the call log.He did it in one swift move.

Seeing that Luke was leaving, Ryan suddenly stopped him.

"Wait!"

"Ryan..."

"You don't have to do tt.I'll handle it myself."

Luke pursed his lips and silently prayed for Brian.

'Well, well, well.It looks like Brian really stepped in a stinking pile of poo this time.He dared to annoy Ryan, and now Ryan is personally going to deal with him.Oh man, Brian is dead meat! Although Ryan always acts indifferent and aloof, the truth is that he is unrelenting.Ryan shared a good rapport with Bruce.But he still banished Bruce to the US after he found out that Bruce was speaking ill of him.Obviously, Brian's punishment would be much worse.

Brian is so bold that he wants to steal Ryan's girlfriend.

Just for thinking about it, he should be hanged by his toes!' Ryan's brow furrowed as he was lost in thought.

He then smirked and took out his phone from his pocket, and dialed Anson's number.

"Dad!"

"What is it? What happened? Is everything all right? Is Ray..."

"Dad, nothing's wrong."

Anson breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then why are you calling me so late at night?"

Ryan was seated on a bench near the door of the ward.

He casually drummed his fingers on the back of a chair.

"Congratulations! You're going to become a great-grandfather!"

Anson blinked several times, thinking whether he heard correctly.

Then his frown deepened, and he asked Ryan, "Who? Brian or Bruce? Which one of them got a girl pregnant?"

"Neither."

"I don't understand."

"Brian wants to steal my woman.And he wants to turn my son, your grandson, into your great- grandson!"

Anson was stunned into silence.

After a while, he roared, "Damn it! What made him think that he would get away with it?"

Anson had just gotten to know that he had a grandson.

And now Brian wanted to take Ryan's woman and make Anson's grandson his great-grandson.

This was unimaginable and unacceptable! Anson thundered, "What does he mean to accomplish by doing that? Yes, he was romantically involved with Wendy in the past.But he was the one breaking up

with her.Now, he wants Wendy for himself again.What is he thinking? And, didn't he recently propose to Eris? Is he planning on having two wives?"

‘'The worst part is that he wants to steal a woman who belongs to his uncle! Damn it! Seriously! What is he thinking?' he thought in anger.

"Ryan, listen to me carefully.You don't hold yourself back on my account.You don't have to consider my feelings.You go ahead and teach that idiot a lesson however you deem fit!"

Ryan cut the call after he received Anson's permission.He looked casually into the distance.

Luke stood quietly and looked at Ryan with awe.

'How perverse! Ryan is so cunning!"

Brian's father had been kicked out of Oliver family.But he was still Anson's eldest son.

Anson always valued his family.

Learning about his eldest son's illness, Anson's anger dissipated.

Knowing that his son had no much time left, he wanted to patch things up.

But, because of Josie, Anson held back.

Anson doted on Brian and Bruce.

But now, after hearing what Ryan had to say over the phone, Anson realized that Brian or Brian's father couldn't return to Oliver family.What hatred couldn't be forgotten or forgiven? The slaughtering of one's father and the stealing of one's wife.

Brian wanted to steal Ryan's woman and son.

Now, if Ryan wanted to deal with Brian, Anson couldn't, or rather, he wouldn't step in between them.

This was a smart move on Ryan's behalf.

He cut off all of Brian's ways of retreat.

'Awesome! Ryan is just awesome!' Luke mentally gave Ryan a thumbs-up sign.

"Ryan, you're a genius!"

The moment Ryan cut the call, his indifferent expression was back.

Judging from Brian's tone and words, Ryan realized that this wasn't the first time he had asked Wendy to be his mistress.

'That bastard! How dare he covet the mother of my children!' Ryan narrowed his eyes and got a dangerous glint in them.

Inside the ward, Wendy was unable to sleep.Her eyes flew open as soon as Ryan pushed the door open.

"Sorry, did I wake you?"

Wendy lowered her eyes and said, "No!"

She was about to sit up, but a pair of small hands had a tight grip on her top.

Wendy looked down.Her entire face softened when she saw the little girl sleeping in her arms.

Wendy turned to the side, and Precious immediately snuggled comfortably in her arms.

She continued to sleep soundly.

It was a cold autumn night.

As gently as she could, Wendy tucked Precious in.

When she raised her head and saw Ryan, her eyes became distant and cold.

Neither of them said a word.

This had never happened to them before.

In fact, this was the first time they had been alone since they came to know the truth.

"Wendy, I'm sorry!" Wendy's entire body froze.

Ryan walked to the sofa next to the bed and sat down.

Seeing that she looked away, he smiled bitterly and said, "Four years ago, I was the one who hurt you, both physically and mentally."

The last time Wendy was drunk, Ryan was not able to control himself and tried to get close to her.

But Wendy trembled, and there was fear in her eyes.

Thinking of that, Ryan guessed it must have been her experience of being drugged four years ago.

That particular time must have caused her psychological trauma.

"And...thank you!"

Ryan paused and looked at Precious. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

He then added sincerely, "Thank you for giving birth to two such adorable children for me."

He felt guiltier.

Today, Roger told him everything that Wendy had experienced while she was in the US.

At that time, she had just given birth to the baby, but she didn't get any attentive care that a new mother should get.

Without having any money or other financial aid, she took a premature baby abroad.

Ryan couldn't even fathom how she must have lived when she reached the US.She had been all alone with no family or friends for support.

And all of this was his fault.He had no choice but to come to a decision.

For the rest of his life, he would pay double of whatever he owed them.

Wendy lay down with her back to Ryan.She had been eight months pregnant when the truth was flung in her face.

Eris and Brian had told her that Brian wasn't the father of the children she was carrying.

That was when she started to hate the man who had gotten her pregnant.

That man had ruined her life.

But as time went by, she hated Eris and Brian more.

Because as long as Eris wanted to hurt her, she would always find some man to do whatever she wanted to get done.

Wendy wouldn't have been able to escape.

Also, when she learned that Ryan was Raymond's father, her first reaction was to let out a sigh of relief.

The thought that popped up in her mind was, 'Thank God it was him!'

Wendy was glad that Ray's father was Ryan and not that disgusting man, Oakley.

The mere sight of him made her nauseous.But now she couldn't forget the panic she felt when Raymond disappeared.Knowing that it was Ryan's mother who was behind it, Wendy couldn't help but be angry at Ryan! It was getting late.

Ryan turned off the lights and only kept a dim lamp on.

The sound of footsteps halted behind her, yet Wendy did not turn around.She didn't know how much time had passed.

Later, the footsteps gradually faded into the distance.

'l guess Ryan is going to the other room to sleep.Thank God!' Wendy thought.

She breathed a sigh of relief.But she didn't hear the sound of the other room's door opening.

Wendy curiously turned over to check.She was shocked to see that Ryan hadn't left the room but was lying on the sofa next to the bed.

The sofa was not comfortable for a tall person like Ryan.

However, he had taken his suit jacket off and covered himself with it.He looked pitiful and uncomfortable, curled up on the sofa in his white shirt.

When Ryan heard the sound of Wendy turning over, he opened his eyes.

"It's late.Get some sleep." Wendy remained silent.

The night was quiet.

The autumn night turned as cold as the moon that hung high up in the sky.

Wendy couldn't refrain from asking, "Are you planning on sleeping here tonight?"
