My Bossy CEO Husband

Chapter 225: Repay Them For The Rest Of His Life 

After hearing what Precious said, Wendy immediately felt relieved.Thinking that Raymond was fine, she was glad.

The worry in her heart somehow alleviated.She held Precious' hand and said, "If you feel uncomfortable, you must tell me as soon as possible, okay?"

Precious nodded her head vigorously.

"I'll go back home to make porridge for you."

Ryan stared at Luke with a cold face.) Resigning himself to fate, Luke sat on the edge of the bed and held Precious’ round little face.

Precious pouted.

"Uncle, have you washed your hands? He was stunned.

‘Seriously? Even Precious dislikes me now?’ Blue veins stood out on his forehead.

"Precious!"

Precious stuck out her tongue naughtily.She looked so cute.

Luke's heart softened at once.

"Precious, when you were in the operating room with Ray, your mommy was very nervous.Now that she finally felt relieved because the operation was successful, how could you let her cook for you?"

His words made Precious feel guilty.

She held Wendy's hand and said, "Mommy, you don't need to cook for me."

"No, it's okay.I'm not tired," Wendy replied with a smile.

"Well, I'll just order some takeout.

Since we're all here, I'll order more food to celebrate the success of Ray's operation,"

Luke offered.

Precious raised her hand and agreed.

"All right!"

Luke immediately took out his phone and called the restaurant to order food.

Wendy didn't want to eat with Josie.

But for Precious’ sake, she didn't say anything.

Luke ordered a tableful of dishes.

The ward was a little rudimentary, so everyone gathered around the coffee table to eat.

Fortunately, Luke was there.He had been talking all the time, making the atmosphere lively and not very embarrassing.

All of a sudden, Anson picked a piece of braised pork with his chopsticks and put it in Wendy's bowl. From NôvelDrama.Org.

Wendy froze.

Even Ryan and Luke looked at Anson in surprise.

Anson was already seventy years old, and he was a bit thin.

But his back was still straight, and his eyes were sharp.He was a very energetic old man.

Seeing that Wendy was looking at him, he smiled kindly and said, "You have lost a lot of weight these days.You need to take care of the two kids after the operation, so you'd better eat more."

"Thank you." Wendy lowered her eyes and ate the rice in her bowl.

But she didn't eat the piece of braised pork.

Josie clenched the chopsticks in her hand tightly.

‘What is this woman doing? How can she refuse Anson's kindness? She's really ill-mannered!’ she thought.

Josie was about to lose her temper when Anson put a peeled shrimp in her bowl and said, "Eat shrimp."

She held back her anger.

Wendy didn’t care about the interaction between Anson and Josie at all.She just pretended that she didn't see anything.

After eating, Precious quickly fell asleep.

She didn't sleep well last night.

As soon as she fell asleep, Josie and Anson left and went home.

While cleaning up, Luke heaved a long sigh.

‘Alas! It looks like Wendy really hates us"

While he went out to throw the garbage, Wendy took out her phone and walked over to Ryan.

"Yes?"

Ryan was a bit stunned.

Since Wendy found out that Josie was the one who kidnapped Raymond, this was the first time that she took the initiative to talk to him.He immediately put away the tablet on his lap and asked, "What's up?"

"I've already transferred the money to you.Just take it, "Wendy replied.

Ryan frowned upon hearing this.He took out his phone to check.

Sure enough, he saw that she had transferred a sum of money to his account.

It was more than two hundred thousand dollars.

"What is this for?"

"You have paid for Ray's medical expenses."

Wendy borrowed the money from Reese since she didn’t have much money with her right now.

Fortunately, Reese had not spent the money she got from selling her house yet.

"I know that this is a private hospital, and the doctors who perform Ray's operation are authoritative experts.Two hundred thousand dollars may not be enough, but that's what I only have for the time being.Once the bill comes out, I will pay the rest little by little."

The expression on Ryan's face darkened at once.He took a deep breath to suppress the anger that starting to rise.

"Ray is also my child.I haven't fulfilled my duties and responsibilities to him as a father in the past few years.Now that I know the truth, I should be the one to pay for his medical expenses."

"This is what Ray wants."

Wendy's words were like a basin of cold water that extinguished the flames all over Ryan's body.

His Adam's apple bobbed convulsively.He was silent for a while.

Then he asked with difficulty, "This is what Ray wants?"

"Yes," Wendy nodded.

"He told me last night that he didn't want to owe you a favor."

‘Does Ray want to distance himself from me?’ Ryan thought.

A bitter smile crept across his face.

"So you'd better accept the money."

Ryan put his phone back into his pocket.

"You..."

Wendy was about to say something more, but Ryan interrupted, "No, I won't accept it!"

"Ryan..."

Ryan took out the cigarette pack from his pocket.

He had been smoking too much these past few days.

And now, he suddenly craved for it too.

He stood up from the sofa and said, "I'll go out for a while."

"Ryan!"

Ryan walked to the door, opened it, and paused for a moment but didn't look back.

"Wendy..."

"Yes, I am listening."

"No matter what I do for you and for Ray, you don't owe me anything.Actually, it's me who owes you both so much."

After saying this, Ryan pursed his lips and strode out of the ward.

He went to the fire exit and stood on the staircase.

Smoking was allowed in this area, so he leaned against the wall, lit a cigarette, and took a deep drag.

After a while, he slowly exhaled a ring of smoke.

He didn't know why, but he suddenly felt a sense of loneliness.

It was true that he owed Wendy and Raymond too much.

It was so much that he felt like he had to repay them for the rest of his life.

"Ryan."

Someone called his name from behind.

Luke pushed the door of the fire exit and strode over to Ryan.

Seeing the burning cigarette between Ryan's fingers, he sighed heavily.

Needless to say, Ryan must have been rejected by Wendy.

"Ryan, is Wendy still unwilling to forgive you?"

Ryan didn't say anything.

Luke tried to comfort him.

"It is normal that she can't accept the truth for now.Don't push her too hard.Actually, I can see that she still has feelings for you.Otherwise, she would have gotten even with you after knowing that it was you four years ago."

"Yeah."

"Now that Ray's operation has been successful, she's already relieved.Just give her some time.When she calms down, you can pursue her and show her that you're sincere.She will definitely forgive you."

Still, Ryan didn't say anything, but his eyes darkened.

The cigarette kept burning between his fingers.

Luke didn't know how to comfort him anymore.

Actually, he was also a little guilty when he faced Wendy.

Four years ago, it was him who drugged Ryan.

If it weren't for him, this tragedy wouldn't have happened at all.

"Luke..."

"Yes?"

"Is everything ready for tomorrow's press conference?"

Luke's expression became solemn.

"Ryan, don't worry.Everything has been prepared.Rest assured that things will go smoothly tomorrow."

Ryan stubbed out the cigarette butt with his fingertips.His eyes were cold and fierce.

This time, he swore that he would defend Wendy with all his might.And he would let those who bullied her pay a hefty price.
