My Bossy CEO Husband

Chapter 254: Bruce's Phone Call 

In the end, Wendy got into Ryan's car.

Since Precious had just gone through an operation to donate her bone marrow to Raymond, Wendy was worried that she would be having some discomfort, so she insisted that Precious be kept in the hospital for observation for a few more days.

Ryan was in a good mood, so he gave Luke a day off from work and asked him to accompany Precious.

Therefore, Ryan and Wendy went downstairs alone.They stayed in a suite on the top floor, where there was a private elevator.The two of them walked into the elevator side by side.The doors closed, leaving the two of them alone in a confined space.

Standing in the silence, Wendy felt a little awkward.

This was the first time that she had found herself alone with Ryan after learning that he was Raymond's father.

She didn't say anything, and neither did Ryan.

With her backpack on her back, Wendy leaned against the wall behind her and closed her eyes slightly, wanting to avoid eye contact with Ryan.

But even with her eyes closed, she could sense Ryan's piercing eyes boring into her.

After a while, she found it impossible to ignore him.

Feeling uncomfortable under his burning gaze, she opened her eyes and reluctantly met his.

Pursing her lips, she asked, "Why are you staring at me?"

"It's been a long time since I had a good look at yours Ryan replied without skipping a beat.Wendy, who hadn't expected such a response from him, instantly blushed.

‘What? Why is he being so forward?’ Wendy nervously avoided his gaze and cleared her throat.

"It's not like I had plastic surgery or something.What's there to look at? I still look the same as before."

"No, you don't."

"What?"

"You've gotten thinner."

There was a flicker of surprise in Wendy's eyes, and she touched her face subconsciously.She studied her reflection in the wall of the elevator carefully.She was dressed in a dress that was cinched at the waist, covered by a straight coat.

Looking at her waist, which was eye-catchingly small, she realized that Ryan was right.

"Well, good! There's no need for me to lose weight, ' she thought happily.

But just then, Ryan quipped, "I still like the way you looked before."

Once again, color spread to Wendy's cheeks.

‘He is so forward! What am I supposed to say to that?’ She felt as if the elevator was descending more slowly than usual, and subconsciously tapped her toes against the floor.
