My Bossy CEO Husband

"Mom, are you kidding me?" Jeffrey asked in disbelief.
Nellie was silent, which proved that he did not hear it wrong.
Without second thought, he waved his hand.
"Mom, have you forgotten what you've done to Uncle Ryan? You and Dad were lucky that he didn't take revenge.How could you
ask him for help now? Forget it.I'm telling you, that's not going to happen."
Nellie retorted, "I didn't ask you to beg Ryan.You can go to your grandpa instead."
"No way!"
"Bruce!"
"No.No matter what you say, I won't go.You're just using me as a tool.Oh, come on.Let me analyze it for you.There are only two
outcomes if I indeed beg Grandpa.First, he won't help me.It will be embarrassing.Even if he's willing to help me, Uncle Ryan
won't allow him.He's the CEO of Oliver Group.Grandpa will only be able to help us if he successfully persuades Uncle Ryan.You
know Uncle Ryan.He's been vindictive ever since he was a child.If I ask Grandpa for help and Uncle Ryan finds out, he'll make
my life a living hell.Mom, I won't do that."
"Bruce!"
"I know what you're going to say.You're going to reason out that Uncle Ryan, Uncle Luke, and I have been close over the
years.You think that maybe, Uncle Ryan won't mind if I ask for help.We grew up together, after all.Not only that, but I'm also his
nephew.Isn't that right?"
Nellie did not answer, but her silence meant yes.
Without another word, Jeffrey waved his hand and marched out.
‘Fuck! Uncle Ryan and I are rivals in love.
Can you believe it? Rivals in love! And yet, Mom wants me to beg him for help.
Damn it! Sorry to say, but I'd rather get struck by a bolt of lightning than do that..

"Bruce? Bruce!"
Nellie shouted behind Jeffrey.
"Mom, if you want to disown me, fine, do it.But no matter what you say, I will never ask Grandpa for help.Before I leave, I have a
suggestion for you.If you really want to ask for help, at least show some sincerity.You and Dad should go and beg Grandpa."
Then, he strode out of the villa.
Behind him, Nellie was shouting his name, livid.However, he did not stop, much less look back.It was now deep into the night.
Thousands of stars shone in the night sky.
At that moment, Jeffrey wrapped his coat around him and jogged to the car.
The moment he got in, he started the engine and drove away.
The car roared in the quiet night.Its rumble could even be heard inside the villa.
Nellie sat on the sofa, fuming.
In order to calm herself down, she took several deep breaths for a while.
Brian, being a concerned son, handed her a glass of water and advised, "Here.Drink some water, Mom.By the way, Bruce has
always been like this, even when he was a child.You should know that by now.Why are you mad at him?"
Nellie tried to regain her composure.
The truth was, she was not mad.
She was broken-hearted.
‘How could that child be such a failure? How could he insist on staying in the showbiz and waste his life?’ What Jeffrey had done
made Nellie sad and bitter.
She had spent a lot of money on her two sons ever since they were little.She wanted them to be successful and become
excellent men.
But neither of his sons brought her satisfaction.She had set the standards high for them.

What was more, she had even hired famous and renowned teachers to cultivate their young minds.
Nevertheless, they were still no match for Ryan.She was disappointed in them.
"Mom, don't be sad anymore.I promise I'll go on a blind date just as you ask."
Thanks to Brian, Nellie felt a little better now.
Without a word, she took the glass from his hand and took a sip.Her throat felt better than it was a while ago.
However, the current situation of the company suddenly crossed her mind, making her restless again.
At the thought of this, she put the glass on the table and held her son's hand.
"Brian, listen to me.Your dad and I are the only ones loving you.Everyone else is unreliable."
Brian nodded in response.
Even though his mother did not mention a name, he knew that she was talking about Bruce.
"Mom, Bruce will eventually understand." Nellie did not answer and just smiled bitterly.
"Mom, I can beg Grandpa for help if it's really needed."
Brian was not a fool.He believed that this was the right time to show his royalty to his mother.
She was the one in charge of the family, after all.
Even his father listened to her.
To him, as long as he gained his mother's trust, he would achieve anything.
Upon hearing that, Nellie smiled bitterly but said nothing.
Truth be told, she had always wanted Brian to keep in touch with Anson and butter that old man up.
However, Brian did not keep that in mind.
In fact, he had not seen his grandfather in years.

Anson had little affection left for him.
In this case, Anson would not help.Nellie did not think that this would work.
Anyway, after a whole day's work, she was physically and mentally exhausted.
With her eyes half-closed, she rubbed her temples.
"You can go home now."
"Mom, are you okay?"
"This is nothing." Nellie shook her head.
‘I'll arrange the blind date for you.I'll send you a message once it's settled."
"Sounds good."
"You can go now." Brian nodded.
However, he was a little worried about his mother, so he asked Leah, one of the servants, to take care of Nellie while he was
gone.
With that, he slowly walked out of the villa.
The villa's yard was dark and cold.
For some reason, Brian did not leave immediately.
Instead, he leaned against his car and lit a cigarette in the dark.
All of a sudden, something occurred to him.
The thought of it made him take a long drag in the cigarette.
With a sigh, he threw the cigarette on the ground and crushed it with his leather shoe.lt was only then that he decided to get in
his car.
Once he got in, he slammed the door shut.

His face looked fierce and angry.
Brian started the car, and the engine loudly roared.
He then stepped on the accelerator hard.
The car, like an arrow, sped away towards Eris’ apartment.
Twenty minutes later After washing her face and brushing her teeth, Nellie sat on the bed with her laptop and watched the news.
Crack.
The door suddenly opened.
Jaylen walked in.He seemed morose and exhausted.
"You're back," Nellie greeted.
"Um." Jaylen hung his briefcase, took off his tie, and sighed.
"It's complicated."
Nellie immediately closed the laptop and lent him an ear.
With a sullen look, Jaylen walked over and sat on the edge of the bed.
"I met the woman today.No matter how generous my offers were, she flat-out refused all of them.She doesn't want to reconcile."
Nellie did not say anything and just pursed her lips.
"How about you, Nellie? How is everything going on with you?"
"Things aren't going well with me either."
Nellie told Jaylen how Brian and Jeffrey reacted to her idea.His blood boiled as he heard that Jeffrey refused to cooperate.He
could not help but curse at his son loudly for a moment.
It took him a long while before he finally calmed down.
Nellie patiently waited for him until he gathered up his thoughts.

After pondering for a moment, Nellie put her laptop on the bedside table and said, "Jaylen, don't you think things seem a little
fishy?"
The couple looked at each other with wide eyes.Jaylen nodded his head.They had just solved the hygiene issue, and something
worse happened right after that.
They wefe not stupid to not notice that something was fishy.
If they hadn't realized that someone had been targeting them, they would've spent years in the business world for nothing.
"Jaylen, who do you think it is?"
"Who do you suspect, Nellie?"
Nellie and Jaylen asked at the same time.They looked into each other's eyes and, all of a sudden, uttered the same name.
"Ryan."
"Ryan."
