My Bossy CEO Husband

Inside the Hopewell Hospital...

Precious stood beside Wendy's hospital bed, clutching her hand as she stared at the woman's bandaged head.

Tears were streaming down the girl's face, and her sorrow was real this time.

Her eyes had turned red and blotch as she choked in her sobs.

"Don't cry, Precious."

"Uncle Luke," she sniffed and looked up at him.

"Beautiful Auntie will be fine, won't she?" Luke ached for his niece.

He reached out to hold her and spoke in a gentle voice.

"Everything will be okay.Didn't you hear what your Uncle Leo just said? Beautiful Auntie just suffered some minor bruising and a slight concussion.She will be fine after resting for a couple of days." His words did not stop her from crying though.

"But still! She bled a lot."

"Don't worry.Hasn't she stopped bleeding now?"  Precious bawled harder.

"You're lying! My pet Snow died because it hit the wall and bled a lot! You all told me it was just sleeping but it never woke up! Waah...Beautiful Auntie was hurt only because she was trying to save me."

The girl shook free from her uncle and sobbed harder at Wendy's bedside.Luke turned to his brother helplessly.

"I can't do it, Ryan.You comfort your own daughter!"  Ryan was standing on the other side of the bed, and he now frowned at the unconscious woman occupying it.

His expression was cold.

"Luke."

"Yes?"

"Change all the bodyguards around Precious."

Luke's face instantly became serious.

"Right away!"

His daughter had sneaked out of the office sometime after the audition without him or his brother knowing.

Since she always had bodyguards tailing her wherever she went, both Ryan and Luke had not worried much about Precious.

Little had they expected that this minor negligence on their part would bring heavy consequences.  If it hadn't been for Wendy Finch, the little girl would have died.

"Daddy!"

"Come here."

Still sobbing, Precious walked into Ryan's open arms.

"Daddy, Auntie will be fine, won't she?"
