My Bossy CEO Husband

Jeffrey stiffened and asked, "Uncle Ryan, anything else?"

"Where is your car?"

"Less than ten meters away.Look! The black van over there." Ryan turned to Wendy.

"You go first.I have to talk to Bruce about something."

"Okay."

Being in that car felt so strange for Wendy that finally being able to leave felt like a blessing.She left as fast as she could, saying nothing else.

After she left, Ryan and Jeffrey continued to look at each other.

Both men were stone-faced but something was lurking in Jeffrey's mind that made him feel a bit restless.

"Uncle Ryan—"

"Is your father feeling better?" Ryan interrupted.

"His condition has already stabilized.The doctor said that as long as we give him healthy food and prevent his blood pressure from rising, he'll be fine." Ryan nodded.

Then they lapsed into a dead silence again.

Jeffrey became even more restless.

No amount of autumn winds could ever compare to the icy feeling he felt whenever he was in the same space with Ryan.

"Uncle Ryan...If you don't have anything else..."

He wanted to get out of the car as soon as possible.

"Bruce!" Ryan said, his commanding aura filling the small space of the car.

"What?"

"Are you a good friend of Wendy?"

"Yes."

Jeffrey nodded his head frantically.

"Then take good care of her for me!"

"What?' Jeffrey's eyes narrowed a bit.

‘What do you mean? For you?? "Uncle Ryan—"

"Get out of the car now!"

"Okay!"
