My Bossy CEO Husband

Chapter 67: Honey-coated Words 

Reece was almost breathless after having spoken for so long.

"Reese, I'm really sorry.I should have returned sooner!" Wendy apologized profusely.

"Don't worry about me. I'm happy enough when you're still alive." Reese comforted her.

Upon hearing those words, Wendy added hastily, "Reese! Please don't do such a stupid thing ever again as long as you live! Flynn is an uncouth beast.

The sooner you divorce him, the better.

Thereafter, you can come and live with Ray and me.

Hey, by the way, I neglected to tell you about something extremely important.

Are you ready for this? Three years ago I gave birth to a bouncing baby boy.

I have named him Raymond.

He is an absolute joy to have around.

I have yet to meet a three-year-old who is as obedient and as sensible as he is.

I'm sure that you will love him when you meet him!"

Reese raised her head with a sudden realization.

"Is this as a result of what happened three years ago?"

"Yes!" Reese could not hold back another fountain of tears.

"You poor thing. How much of hardship have you endured over the years?" Wendy was consumed by deep sadness.

"Reese! I'm an actress now and I have to shoot every day.I'm especially busy during this time.Ray is still so young and I am not content having just anyone take care of him.Once you are divorced, you are welcome to live with us.Then you can help babysit Ray.That would be such a comfort for me, knowing that he is in safe hands."

‘Hmm? So...I still seem to hold some value in this existence,’ : Reese thought.

Her eyes lit up like twinkling stars.

Her desperation was replaced with a ray of optimism.

She agreed without hesitation, "Okay! When I get divorced, I will help you take care of your precious little one!"

But after a momentary pause, her eyes darkened again.

"But Flynn won't agree to a divorce."

Wendy sneered, "He has no say in the matter!"
