My Bossy CEO Husband

"Mommy?"
With a trembling finger, Jeffrey pointed at Wendy.His face began to turn red, his teeth grinding behind his pursed lips.
‘‘I can't believe it! What's going on? I was only in the US for a short amount of time.When did Wendy become Precious’ mommy?
She even acknowledged it when Precious called her! What does this mean? Did she just admit to being Precious’ mommy?’’
"Wendy, why did Precious call you her mommy?" Jeffrey asked in a trembling voice.
But before Wendy could answer, Precious wrapped her arms around Jeffrey's neck and pouted with dissatisfaction.
"Bruce, what's that look on your face? Of course she’s my mommy!"
Jeffrey was rendered speechless.He didn't know what was going on.
Nothing was making sense to him! His head began to spin.He turned to Wendy with a puzzled expression, wanting her to explain
everything that was happening.
"Wendy..."
Wendy's head was also spinning.Her situation with Ryan was really complicated, so upon seeing the puzzled expression on
Jeffrey's face, she could only scratch her head and smile bitterly.
"It's hard to explain right now.I'll explain it to you when I have time."
‘What?! That can't be! I want to know now! Jeffrey thought, gnashing his teeth.
"Mommy, I'm sleepy!" Precious began to complain.
"Do you want to sleep in my arms?" Wendy asked in a soothing voice.
Precious’ eyes lit up, and she immediately climbed up Wendy's lap.
"Okay!"
Wendy began to cradle Precious in her arms and pulled her close to her chest as she hummed a lullaby to make her fall asleep.
And just like that, Precious, who had always been a stubborn child, was lying quietly in her arms.

The way they both looked at each other was filled with familial affection.
Jeffrey stared at them with a confused look.
‘They really do look like they're mother and daughter! Damn it! This is just making everything more complicated!’ Ryan was
sipping his wine gracefully.
He took a glance at Jeffrey's shocked expression and then turned to Precious and Wendy.
A glimmer of light flashed deep in his eyes.
‘‘It was indeed a brilliant decision to take Precious here.’‘ A smug smile began to form on his lips.
"No wonder the steak here is so expensive.It's really tasty!" Wendy praised.
"The meat is fresh and tender.More so, it's not chewy at all! No wonder so many people are willing to pay an exorbitant amount
of money just to get a taste of it."
"Precious likes it too.When Ray recovers, we can come here again," Ryan said, with the smile still on his face.
"Great!"
Wendy's face lit up.
As he listened to their conversation, Jeffrey was seething with rage, cutting the steak on the plate with such great force that it
caused a loud clanking noise
When Wendy turned to him, she saw that his steak was a mess and he hadn't taken a single bite.
"Why aren't you eating?" she asked in confusion.
‘How can I possibly eat right now?’ Jeffrey thought, flaring with rage.
"I'm not hungry!" he snapped.
Wendy was confused.
‘Why did he take me to such an expensive place and order so much food if he wasn't hungry? He must be insane!’ When Jeffrey
realized that Wendy seemed to know nothing, he just got angrier.

"Leave me alone.Eat your food!" Jeffrey said, almost scolding her.
Wendy was a little annoyed by his change in attitude.
‘’Are you crazy? You treat me for a meal, and yet you're not eating! What's worse is that you look like you're having a terrible
time! Shit! If Precious weren't here, I wouldn't tolerate him.You're wasting so much food and money!’’ Wendy finished all of her
steak, determined not to waste a single strand of meat.
Since she also didn't want to waste the wine, she drank almost half of the wine in the bottle.
As for the other half, Jeffrey drank it.
Precious fell asleep in Wendy's arms.
Noticing this, Jeffrey wanted to ask Wendy something, but stopped himself since Ryan was beside him.
Wendy, on the other hand, had no idea that something was wrong.
It only took less than an hour for them to finish their meal.
Originally, Jeffrey thought this dinner was going to last for at least two hours.After hearing Precious call Wendy her mommy,
Jeffrey had no choice but to postpone his confession.
In the end, all of his planning and efforts were in vain.
After an hour of eating and drinking, Wendy leaned against the sofa and sighed a breath of relief.
"I'm so full..."
Her cheeks looked flushed and her eyes appeared glassy.
"It's time for us to go home," Ryan said.
"Okay!"
Slowly, Wendy began to pick up Precious who was asleep on her knees and covered by her coat.
However, Ryan stopped her.

"Don't move.Let me do it."
Wendy felt dizzy.She scratched her head and said, "Go ahead."
She was afraid that she might fall.
After all, she had drunk a lot of wine.If she fell, it might hurt Precious.
Ryan picked Precious up.
"Let's go."
"Okay."
Wendy nodded her head and staggered to her feet.Her knees were starting to feel a little bit wobbly.
Noticing this, Ryan quickly held her and frowned.
"Are you okay?"
"Why is the ceiling spinning, Ryan?" Ryan sighed.
"Grab my arm.Let's go downstairs together."
"Okay."
Ryan held Precious with one hand and supported Wendy with the other.
Together, the three of them left.
Behind them, Jeffrey stared at them in disbelief.
“Parmn it! Do they think I don't exist? Why did they just leave without saying goodbye?’ He looked at the candles still burning on
the table and gritted his teeth as he stood up and followed them.
"Uncle Ryan, wait for me!"
In the exclusive elevator for the sixteenth floor, nobody else entered except the four of them.

Inside, it reeked of alcohol.
Wendy was so drunk that she forgot to keep her distance from Ryan.She looked so lethargic as she leaned against his arm.
"Uncle Ryan, let me help Wendy," Jeffrey offered.
But before he could reach out his hand, Ryan stared at him with his head tilted to one side.His face was stone-cold and his eyes
looked frigid.
Jeffrey's hand froze in the air.
"Uncle Ryan—"
"No, we're fine."
"But-"
Ding!
The sound of the elevator cut him off.
They reached the first floor while they were talking.
After a short and silent hum, the elevator doors opened.
Without looking back, Ryan walked out of the elevator, holding Precious with one hand and supporting Wendy with the other.
"If you want to, you can pay the bill."
"What?’ Jeffrey's heart began to pound as his hands balled into fists, his nails digging down his palm.He was angry! He stood
there, too angry to utter a word.
‘Damn it! You ruined my plan to confess my love, took away the woman to whom I was planning to confess, and even asked me
to pay the bill! What a shameless man!’
Jeffrey cursed Ryan in his head, but in the end, he still paid the bill without making a big fuss about it.
In the parking lot, Ryan put Precious in the back seat and was about to help Wendy sit in the passenger seat.

But before he could even open the door, Jeffrey mustered up his courage to walk over and stop in front of the car door.
