My Bossy CEO Husband

Wendy glanced at the clock and saw that it was two o'clock in the morning.It hadn't been that long since she fell asleep, but here she was, already wide awake.

Turning at the window, she learned that the wind and rain had finally stopped.

Careful not to wake the kids, Wendy tiptoed out of bed to check what the noise was.Slowly, she opened the bedroom door.

The living room was lit, and the air-conditioning was switched off, making the atmosphere slightly stuffy.

Ryan was talking to someone on the phone while pouring himself a glass of water.

His voice was very low and stern, sounding like he was talking about work.

Hearing the creaking sound of a door, Ryan turned his head and saw Wendy.

His eyes darkened in an instant.

He knew she was deliberately avoiding staying alone with him.

It was summer, but she was wearing a nightgown with long sleeves and trousers to sleep, concealing all of her.

But maybe she just woke up that her eyes were muddled, her long hair was a little messy, and her cheeks were slightly red.

It was more tempting than deliberately seducing.

Initially, Ryan didn't feel hot without the air conditioner, but now it was as if he needed lots of water to cool him down.

And true to that, he felt the dryness and heat subside a little after gulping down a glass of cold water.

Then, he put away his phone and asked, "Did I wake you up?"

How could Wendy, as the host, admit that her guest had woken her up? So instead, she just rubbed her eyes and humbly answered, "No.I just can't fall asleep..."

"Well, I can't fall asleep either.Come and sit here!"

"What?"

Wendy asked with her brows shot up.

She put her arms around her chest subconsciously and stared at him as if he was a bad man about to do something terrible to her.

Ryan raised his eyebrows and pointed at the sofa, "I said have a seat.What are you thinking of?"

"Ha-ha!"

Utterly embarrassed, Wendy wished the ground could swallow her at that moment.

"N-Nothing ..I just feel that it's quite hot today.Isn't it hotter to sit on the sofa?" she reasoned out.

Then, hoping to change the topic, she added, "Anyway, it's kinda late, and you haven't gone to bed yet.Are you not comfortable sleeping in someone else's bed?"
