My Bossy CEO Husband

Their negotiation was interrupted by another gunshot.

The bastards blasted another tire this time!

The car bumped.

Remaining calm, Brian clenched the steering wheel to control the car’s direction.

The car sped towards the bend.

“We’re close.

Are you ready?” Brian asked, his deep voice echoing like a death sentence to Rosalynn’s ear.

Looking at Brian’s determined expression, Rosalynn felt a Lump in her throat.

“Brian, I…” She struggled to speak out of frustration and fear.

“Don’t be afraid, okay? You did martial arts.

I know you can protect yourself and the baby,” Brian said, his voice gentle and reassuring as he kissed her hand.

Tears welled up in Rosalynn’s eyes as she shook her head once more, refusing, “I can’t.

No matter our fate, I want us to be together!”

Brian was moved by her words but kept his composure to convince her.

“Honey, please.

It isn’t the time to make my heart skip a beat Like this.

” Turning serious, he continued, “God knows how much I Love you.

I will risk my life to save you when you’re in danger, but it kills me that I always lose my chance.

I get jealous and feel helpless.

”

He lowered his eyes and smiled faintly, adding, “Perhaps God allowed this to happen so I could finally protect you.

Honey, please do it, for me and for our baby.

”

Rosalynn’s tears fell like waterfalls down her cheeks at his words.

She wanted to say something but was too choked up to speak.

With his free hand, Brian reached out to wipe her tears away, his gaze a mix of affection and sadness as he said, “Just remember… If things go south, please take care of my grandmother, our baby, and yourself.

Carry my love with you, always.

Was he bidding goodbye?

His words felt like knives piercing through Rosalynn’s heart.

She shook her head and protested, “No, you can’t do this to me, Brian.

Do you understand? You can’t die.

You have to promise me!”

Despite the situation, her insistence made Brian smile.

“I promise,” he said.

Even though the chances were slim, he vowed to stay alive for her.

As they neared the corner, Brian swallowed the lump in his throat and looked hard at the road ahead, steering the car closer to the sidewalk.

“Get ready.

I’m going to slow down now,” he informed.

Wiping her tears, Rosalynn looked at him imploringly and urged him for the last time, “Brian, please.

I can’t leave you.

Let’s jump together.

”

However, Brian had no intention to change plans.

“You can do this, Rosalynn.

”

Rosalynn didn’t move.

Brian slowed down and reached for the lock to open it for her.
