My Bossy CEO Husband

Chapter 79: The Divorce 

Wendy was preparing lunch when she heard about Evie's banishment from the showbiz.

She stopped chopping and exclaimed, "Really?"

"Yes!"

Wendy's presence these last few days had worked wonders on Ryan.

He could finally sleep five or six hours a day, which made him feel more energized and calm at the same time.

He was in a better mood and less irritable than ever.

He rolled up his sleeves and got to work, helping Wendy wash the vegetables.

"Such behavior won't be tolerated in the filming industry."  

"Oh! And what about Wesley?"

"He and his wife got a divorce."

"They did? So soon?"

"Word is he didn't want to go through with the divorce at first." Wendy's interest was piqued.

"What made him change his mind?"

"I heard he was in a car accident driving home after work one day.He could have died right then and there and that scared the shit out of him.The very next day he signed the divorce papers," Ryan said.

His face was serious as he carefully placed the now washed vegetables on the chopping board.Wendy was left speechless.The car accident...Such a convenient timing! 

"Well, I can't say he didn't deserve it.Violence seems to be the only thing that scumbag understands, so there's no better way to knock some sense into him."

 "He got nothing out of the divorce, you know." Wendy was impressed.

"Go, Tara! That woman is an inspiration for wronged women everywhere."

‘Everything Wesley owned, Tara had handed to him.So in a sense, she just took back what had always been hers’, Wendy thought to herself.  

A sudden movement from Ryan dragged her out of her reverie.He suddenly stretched out his hand, reaching for her face.The gesture made Wendy strangely nervous.

"What...What's is it?"

Ryan gently tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear.

His fingertips slid across her face, light as a feather.

Wendy closed her eyes, enjoying the shivers his touch was sending down her spine.
