My Bossy CEO Husband

Chapter 36: I Want You! 

Luke was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.

With all the wealth his family had, he never needed to do the housework, not even once in his life.

He looked at his flawless, slender fingers, and then looked at Ryan's cold, piercing eyes.

He sighed and began to gather the bowls and dishes on the table.

He had no idea how to properly wash dishes, but it seemed like he had no other choice at the moment.

Aye! He had already sacrificed so much.

How much more should he endure just for Ryan to chase after Wendy?  As soon as Luke left, Precious thought of something.

Immediately, she took Raymond by the hand and led him to the sofa in the living room.

Ryan and Wendy were left alone in the big dining room.

"Boss..."

"Please, Wendy.We're off duty."

Ryan was implying that Wendy didn't have to call him boss.

"Oh...Okay, then,"

Wendy responded quietly.

What came after this small exchange was silence filled with tension and awkwardness.

Wendy wriggled uncomfortably in her seat as she felt the uneasiness setting in.

Her eyes darted in every direction except where Ryan was.

Soon, Ryan broke the silence.

"So...ever since I became your boss, have...you been afraid of me?"

Wendy let out a nervous chuckle.

"What are you even saying, Mr.Oliver?"

"Every time you feel uncomfortable around me you call me 'Mr.Oliver, '‘" Ryan explained nonchalantly.

"W-what?"

"You also stutter."

Wendy was rendered speechless.

‘How did he even notice that?’ she thought.
