My Bossy CEO Husband

‘Come to me? For what?” Ryan coldly stared at Odette, furrowing his eyebrows.But Odette had already scurried off with her face
turning red.
‘What just happened? “ Ryan thought to himself, confused.
He put the thought aside, since he didn't really want to pay attention to those he didn't care so much for.His eyes fell on the one
he came here for.Wearing a long crimson red dress, Wendy sat under the shade of a tree, reading her script.
Beside her was Jeffrey, who was perched on a stool in his light green robe, also going over his script.
Two beautiful people were sitting together.
It looked like a harmonious scene.Jeffrey leaned over to whisper something to Wendy, causing her to glare at him.He pretended
to be scared and fell of his stool in exaggeration, amusing her a little.
Ryan's face fell upon seeing that.
"Luke," he called out.
"What?" Ryan looked away from the scene.
"Any updates on Nellie?"
Luke had no idea why Ryan was asking this now, but he told him everything he knew anyway.
"The news has spread like wildfire.Many companies have since stopped cooperating with them.Jaylen is trying to restore
relations with them, but they all keep refusing."
Luke lowered his voice and continued, "The price of their shares has fallen.Their company's market value has evaporated at
least a several hundred millions.Even the business in their hotels is dwindling.I heard somewhere that Jaylen is now thinking of
reducing the staff."
Ryan nodded with satisfaction.
"And what else?"
‘What else?’ Luke's confusion showed on his face.

"Nellie!"
"Oh...l see.Well, she's desperate in arranging a marriage for commercial benefits.Brian has been bearing the brunt of this
suffering recently.His mother has been setting up two blind dates for him every day, one in the morning and one in the
evening.Each one of the girls is the only child in her family."
Luke emphasized the last sentence.He had a mocking tone to his voice.He chuckled before continuing, "Of course, Nellie only
chooses families that have been in the business for generations or families that have strong backgrounds.Either way, they're all
shrewd.It's obvious why Nellie wants her son to marry one of these girls.Those families aren't stupid to fall for her tactics, and
they won't let her get what she wants.These girls just went to the blind dates for show."
Ryan asked, "So Brian's blind dates weren't going well at all?"
"No, not even a little bit."
Luke shoved his hands in his pockets and shrugged.
"You know our nephew.The only thing he has going for him is his looks.Only naive, inexperienced girls would fall for his tricks.In
the eyes of these rich ladies, he has no chance at all."
"Well...what about Bruce?" Ryan asked.
Luke's jaw dropped.His eyes widened and he cleared his throat.
"What? Ahem, uh...What do you mean, Ryan?"
"Do you still not understand?"
Ryan squinted at Luke, sending a shiver down the latter's spine.
"No, no.I understand now.Clearly," Luke said hurriedly.
He and Kane shared a look, feeling sorry for Jeffrey.
‘Poor Bruce.You should have been more observant.You were better off minding your own business.The set was very simple.
Carter gathered three wooden armchairs from the props section and gave them to the distinguished guests.

"Mr.Oliver, I apologize if the studio isn't up to your standards..."
"No, it's fine."
Luke took on the role of dealing with people and gratefully sat down in the chair provided.
"You don't have to accompany us.We're just here to look around.You should go ahead and get to work."
‘Look around?’ Carter thought, pushing his glasses back up with his finger.
"Well, the assistant director is shooting a scene with the show's heroine now.How about I accompany you there to take a look?"
He assumed that they were here to observe how the set had been adjusting to the sudden change in lead actress.
That was why he proposed this suggestion.
Ryan's face darkened.
"Oh, I guess not..." Carter was even more perplexed.
He thought he had hit the nail on the head with this suggestion, but Ryan still seemed unhappy.Luke watched in horror as his
brother's expression scared the wits out of Carter.
‘Damn it! Of course, Ryan is angry.He only came here for Wendy, but the director asked him to watch another woman.It would be
strange if Ryan happily agreed to that suggestion"
Luke hurriedly replied, "Don't bother.We will just stay here.Please, carry on with your work."
"Well...okay, then."
It was then that Carter finally realized they were not here for the reason he thought they were.
‘How unpredictable these big shots are.Ah, forget it! Just let them do what they want"
The itinerary for today's shoot was packed, anyway.
After excusing himself, he went to his spot to prepare for the shoot.
Not long after, Carter's assistant approached the guests with three cups of coffee.

"Mr.Oliver, the director ordered me to serve you some coffee.Drink as you please."
"Thanks, I'll take that.Carter is quite adept at reading people."
Luke took the tray of coffee cups and distributed them to Kane and Ryan.
Kane gladly took his cup, but Ryan only leaned against his chair and simply glanced at his without even taking it.
Luke nodded in defeat of his adamant brother and put down the coffee instead.
With his own cup of coffee in his hand, he looked up and scanned around the studio.
To be honest, Carter was actually pretty considerate for a host.
He had prepared a shaded place for the three of them to sit, and they could see the shoot clearly from here.
"Everyone in position.We are about to begin!"
Meanwhile, Wendy quickly stole a glance at the three men in the distance.She inhaled sharply.
‘They're all just sitting there.Are they seriously going to watch?’ Wendy looked down at her script.
Her face scrunched up in worry.
Mason, who was going to play the scene with her today, saw her face and couldn't help but joke, "Wendy, are you that
uncomfortable to shoot a love scene with me? Don't you know how many girls would kill to be my lover? That's a little insulting."
He dramatically put his hand across his heart and pretended to be hurt.Wendy had no choice but to respond in awkward
laughter.
She was now beginning to feel uncomfortable with playing opposite of Mason today.Because it was a love scene, for crying out
loud! Kissing and love scenes were very common in the industry, though.
As a professional, Wendy was expected to handle it without any malice.
But...to shoot a love scene in front of Ryan? Goose bumps crawled all over her skin.She felt ill just thinking about it.
The last time Ryan came to visit, she was shooting a kissing scene with Jeffrey.

This time, it was worse with an entire love scene!
What a terrible coincidence! She recalled what happened that last time.
Ryan's usual cold and fierce gaze petrified her.
No matter how much she braced herself to do her best, her performance just wasn't good that day.
For one scene, she had to do it over more than ten times.
She couldn't imagine how much worse today could be.She wanted to curse under her breath.
"Wendy? Hello, Wendy Finch?""Huh? What?"
Wendy was jolted back into her senses.She raised her head and saw Mason looking suspiciously at her.
Mason asked, "What's gotten into you? I was calling your name several times.
"Wendy blinked and swallowed the lump in her throat.”
"I'm just nervous."
Mason opened his mouth to try comforting her, but Carter's voice came on the loud speaker.
"Actors on set please.We're about to begin shortly!"
