My Bossy CEO Husband

“Could you spare some time to handle system maintenance for my company?” Karina asked.
“I’LL charge a substantial fee,” Hutton said matter-of-factly.
Karina rolled her eyes, retorting, “You’re such a miser.”
“Yes, I am,” he replied.
“Will you do it for free?”
“How could I dare refuse?”
While eating, Rosalynn listened to their banter, her mood uplifted.
Just then, her phone on the table buzzed.
A call from Brian.
She chose to ignore it. Answering his call would disrupt the pleasant atmosphere.
Soon, a message arrived.
“Rosalynn, are you not going to speak with me?”
It was a text from Brian.
Upon reading the message, Rosalynn couldn’t help but smile.
Just as she was contemplating whether to respond, another message from Brian popped up.
“Call me back. Rosalynn, you know my temperament.”
He was issuing a warning.
Rosalynn, taken aback, told Karina and Hutton, “I need to step out to make a phone call.”
She walked to a quieter spot outside and dialed Brian’s number.

“Hello?”
Brian’s deep, captivating voice echoed from the phone.
He seemed somewhat elated.
