My Bossy CEO Husband

Ten minutes later 

At a cafe near the filming site, Wendy reached a private room.She was wearing light make-up, yet her face was covered with sunglasses and a face mask.The instant the door opened, Brian stood up.Seeing how heavily disguised Wendy was, he was slightly surprised.

"Come in," he said a after a period of awkward silence.

Wendy walked into the room without a saying a word.

Brian reached out to pull a chair for her.

To his surprise, Wendy held up her palm and said, "No need."

She then walked over, pulled a chair for herself, and sat down opposite him.

It was only then that she took off her sunglasses and mask, revealing the stern look on her face.

She looked straight into his eyes and said, "I have a shooting later, so you'd better hurry up.Let's cut to the chase.What do you want from me?"

Brian pushed the cup of coffee he had ordered for her.As he gazed at her pale face, guilt crept over his system.

"Wendy, I've seen the headlines about you today," he started.

Wendy did not say anything and just looked at him expressionlessly.

The way she was looking at him made him even feel guiltier.

"I...I've asked Eris about the man.She said that he was the one four years ago." Wendy's face turned pale.

She could not help but clench the coffee cup and pursed her lips out of anger.

"So?"

"It's our fault.At that time, Eris was young and naive.She loved me so much that she did it without thinking.I apologize on her behalf."

Upon hearing that, Wendy burst into laughter.

Brian frowned in confusion and asked, "What are you laughing at? What's so funny?"

"I feel sorry for you!"

Brian put down his cup and said, "Wendy, stop driving a wedge between Eris and me.She has already explained herself about what you've told me before."

"You're so pitiful.She fooled you again!" Brian was speechless.

"You don't believe me?" Wendy asked with a sneer.
