My Bossy CEO Husband

 Wendy continued her business with the bamboo skewer.

"Hi, Precious!"

"Hello, Uncle Roger."

Roger smiled at her and asked, "Can you eat spicy food? If you can't, then I won't put any pepper in it."

"Of course, I can!"

Starving, the little girl stared at the red charcoal fire on the grill, swallowing a few big mouthfuls, and uttered, "Uncle Roger, I love spicy food.

"Okay, give me a second.I'll grill some for you."

"Okay!"

Meanwhile, sensing the strong, intimidating aura emanating from Ryan, Wendy moved a little far away to wash the vegetables and placed them on bamboo skewers.

Halfway through, Roger came over and said apologetically, "Wendy, I can't stay that long.Something came up with one of my friends, and I have to leave."

‘What? He's leaving?! Then, I will be left alone with Ryan! What are we going to talk about during dinner?’ Wendy thought, slightly panicking in her head.

"Are you in a hurry? Is there something I can help you with?"

"It's okay.I can handle it myself."

"Oh, alright.Then, you should go now."

"Okay, I'll leave everything here to you.Thanks!"

Wendy did not reply.

How could she say no?! She felt like weeping but felt it was too useless now.

Ryan would not do the grilling, and the two kids couldn't be trusted with fire.

So, after seeing Roger off, Wendy had to take charge of the barbecue.

When she turned to check on the kids, she saw them sitting close to each other on the grass, whispering something.

Precious's laughter resounded from a distance, and even Raymond had a smile on his face.

Wendy seldom saw her son this happy.

It seemed that it would be good for Ryan and Precious to stay.

A smile crept on her lips as she thought of this.

Suddenly, an oppressive gaze fell on her face.

As soon as Wendy turned her head, she saw Ryan intently looking at her from a distance, making the smile on her face freeze instantly.

"Uhm..."

Feeling the heat slowly rising to her cheeks, Wendy immediately diverted her gaze.

And only when she lowered her face had she realized what happened! It should not be like this! This day was meant to celebrate her discharge from the hospital.

She was the host of this little party while Ryan was the guest! How could she be so nervous as the host?! "Do you need any help?"

A baritone voice suddenly penetrated her ears, causing her to raise her head again at once.

"Ah '' Startled, Wendy screamed and almost threw the roasted mushroom out! She turned her head with lingering fear and saw that Ryan had already walked towards her without his blazer.

He was now wearing a pure white shirt with its sleeves rolled up to his elbows, revealing his strong wheat-colored arms.

Wow! Wendy swallowed at the sight of that.

"Are you afraid of me?" asked Ryan, raising his eyebrows.

The air was stuffy, and a thin layer of cold sweat formed on Wendy's head.
