My Bossy CEO Husband
Chapter 37: I Just Want To Be Your Son's Stepfather
"I want to marry you and become your son's step- father! I'm willing to accept both him and you in my life! Ryan spoke in one breath, emphasizing the severity of his determination through his words.
With minimal words to his name, Ryan was able to leave an everlasting impact on Wendy, who became visibly flustered.
Meanwhile, Luke, who was sneakily eavesdropping on their exchange while remaining hidden in the kitchen, couldn't help but smile to himself, combusting with excitement. Brilliant! Who said that Ryan didn't know anything about flirting with women just because he never had girlfriends before? Whoever with that opinion should come and see for themselves! Watch the spectacle unfold as it tramples on the presumptuous ideals one once let limit them.
Every sentence he spoke would melt Wendy's heart and dye her cheeks red from delight.
If this wasn't proof enough that they shared the same biological parents, what else could it be? Both brothers had the same talent for sweet-talking, after all! Luke felt an odd sense of gratification watching Ryan break out of his shell and take matters into his own hands.
He was like a proud parent, watching their child achieve great heights from the sidelines.
Tearing up from being emotionally overwhelmed, Luke went back to wash the dishes, sighing with relief.
"I want you to be my girlfriend!"
"No! No, stop! I can't!"
Snapping back to reality, Wendy furiously shook her head, making it a point to prove how bizarre his wish was.
Taken aback, Ryan frowned and clenched his jaw.
"And why not? What's the reason?"
Wendy slightly trembled, not sure what excuse she could come up with.
Her eyes darted everywhere in the room, avoiding his gaze, searching for a good excuse.
"Uh.That's right! The contract! Falling in love and dating someone is clearly prohibited in the contract! If I do so, it'll be breaking the rules.Therefore, I can't!"
Taken by surprise, Ryan was rendered speechless.
: How could he have never thought of that before putting such a condition into effect? After all, it was he who suggested such terms in the first place.
Never did he think this would come to backfire on him someday.
Refusing to give up, Ryan clenched his fists and pressed further, "You don't have to worry about the restrictions of the contract.I'll deal with them."
"No way! Even if you somehow managed to change the terms and conditions of the contract, I'll still refuse to be with you!"
Ryan's persistence towards his desires was beginning to annoy Wendy.
Every time she would bring up an excuse, he would shut it down with a solution of his own.
"I've already made it clear to you.This cannot happen.You and I can never be together!"
"Just give me a reason why.Don't I at least deserve to know that?"
Unbothered by her claims, Ryan continued to push for a reason for turning him down.
At his demand for an explanation, Wendy sighed to herself and forcefully adorned a bitter smile, struggling to lift the corners of her mouth.
Closing her eyes slowly, she retracted herself from reality and sunk into the unforgiving clutches of her past, something she thought she had escaped from.
Over the years, Wendy did her best to suppress her mind from trailing back into the past.
