My Bossy CEO Husband

When Eris looked into Brian's deep eyes, she froze into a stiffened mass.

"Brian..." Brian looked away and flung the remote control onto the sofa.

Eris felt relieved, and her tight body relaxed slightly.

"Would you like some more water?"

"No, thank you."

Brian nodded and went to put the glass in the kitchen sink.

Eris felt terribly restless when she saw the overly calm expression on Brian's face.

"Brian..."

Eris was about to say something, but was interrupted when the doorbell rang.

"It should be the takeout food.You sit here and I'll open the door," said Brian.

Eris gave in, bit her lip and nodded weakly.

"I'm washing my hands."

"Okay."

In the bathroom, after washing her hands, Eris looked up.She was horrified at the image in the mirror that stared back at her.

Shock and alarm overwhelmed her.

After packing up at the apartment, she had changed into a brown high-necked tight sweater, a calf-length skirt, and a pure white wool overcoat.Her clothes were perfectly elegant.

But the problem was that her delicate makeup was now a terrible mess after she had cried all afternoon.

Her eyes were swollen, punctuated with dark circles.Her face was pale and her eyes were teary.Her face betrayed signs of haunting stress.

Obviously, something really awful must have happened to her to reduce her to such a pathetic state.

But since she met Brian, he hadn't questioned her at all.

Eris got visibly nervous.

This was not Brian's style.

In the past, he could read her like a book, but now he seemed so indifferent.

With uneasiness, she wiped her hands and stepped out of the bathroom, treading on eggshells.
