My Bossy CEO Husband

Chapter 171: Secret Affair

"Wendy, are you really okay with that?" Roger asked with a frown.

'I'm your best friend.To you, I'm a guy who's warm and sunny, but in reality, I'm gay,” he thought tohimself.

"Why should I think it's not okay?" Wendy asked back.

She had lived in the US for three years.

During those years, she met a lot of queer people.

She even saw several gay couples in school while she was studying there.

There she noticed that people were not discriminatory towards homosexuals.

Believe it or not, same-sex marriage was actually a common practice there.

But, of course, not everyone was supportive and tolerant of homosexuals.novelbin

After pondering for a moment, Wendy could not help but say what was on her mind.

"Roger, my words may be a little harsh, but I feel like this is wrong.There are a lot of men in theworld.Kane is already married.You shouldn't fall in love with a married man."

"I know!" Roger replied in a helpless tone.

Wendy was taken aback by his response.

"You know? But you still..." she trailed off.

Roger just smiled bitterly and said nothing.

Meanwhile, Kane was relieved to know that the relationship between Wendy and Roger was not thesame as he had thought.

"Do you want to know our story?" Kane asked with a sigh.

"Go ahead," Wendy replied.

"Alright.Sit down then."

The three of them sat down on the sofa.

Kane sat next to Roger.

The latter frowned but did not say anything.

At that moment, Kane started to tell their love story.

Wendy listened to him intently.

She sighed every now and then as she imagined what hardship they had gone through.

Apparently, Kane and Roger grew up together.

Back then, they lived in the same neighborhood when they were young.

They had liked each other ever since.

Although decades had already passed, it seemed that their personalities had never changed.

Even as teenagers, Kane was cold as ice, while Roger was like the spring sun.

Given their differences, one would think that it would be very difficult, if not impossible, for them to befriends.

But in fact, they were actually pretty close.

It was during adolescence that they started to catch feelings for each other.

However, none of them had the courage to say anything in fear that it would break their friendship.

Little did they know, as long as they had feelings for each other, everything would not be the same.

One summer, while Roger was sleeping in his room, Kane came over to play with him.

Thinking that Roger was fast asleep, Kane stole a kiss from him.

To his surprise, Roger's eyes fluttered open.

That was the day the two young men found out about each other's feelings.

They hid and resisted what they felt, but in the end, love still found a way.

They still fell in love with each other, and there was nothing they could do about it.

The two were secretly in love, and their feelings lasted for years.

When they had finally graduated from college, Kane decided that it was now time to confess to theirparents and be with Roger openly.

But before they could do so, their parents found out about them.

Both the Evans and Johnson clan were well-known families in the Ywood.

How could they afford to taint the family reputation by such a disgrace? What was more, both Kane andRoger were the only son in their respective family.

They were also excellent and the most important heir in their families.

As a result, their parents forcefully separated Kane and Roger by any means necessary.

As the two did not want to be apart from each other, they tried to fight for their love.

However, Kane's mother was extremely prude and old-fashioned.

She could not bear to see her excelled son embark on such a road.

They had persuaded Kane to leave Roger, but he refused every single time.

Because of this, his mother was disheartened that she committed suicide by taking the whole bottle ofsleeping pills at once.

Fortunately, her family found her in time.

She was immediately taken to the hospital for gastric lavage but was in a coma for several days.

She regained her consciousness shortly after.

The first thing she said to Kane was, "If you insist, I guess I have no choice but to turn my back onyou."

Her words meant that she would rather die than see her son fall in love with a man.

Kane's father did not say anything, but it was obvious that he agreed with her.

It was they against their families.

Their parents were on one side, while their lover was on the other.

Kane and Roger had received advanced education since they were young.

Not only that, everything they got was a gift from their parents.

They just could not watch their family die on them because of their love, so the two eventually gave in.

At that time, Kane's parents no longer expected anything from their son.

They just hoped that he would fall in love with a woman and then marry her.

As for that woman's family background, appearance, and talent, they did not care about them anymore.

It was okay as long as Kane ended up with a woman.

At a party one night, Kane met Rosie and then they decided to date.

Their relationship went on smoothly, and they soon met each other's parents.

They got engaged and then got married not long after.

As for Roger, his family arranged a trip for him to the US.

That was where he met Wendy.

After a few years, she and Roger returned to their home country.

She signed a contract with Glory Media, and so did Roger.

Perhaps it was destiny that Kane and Roger met again.

Truth be told, Kane was unhappy all those years, and the person in his heart was still Roger.

For two people in love, it seemed that love would always find a way for them.

That was the reason why Kane approached Roger when the latter signed a contract with his company.

He could not help but go near to the person he loved.

That was also why he had been wary of Wendy from the very beginning.

Roger had signed a contract with Glory Media for Wendy, so Kane assumed that she and Roger hadan intimate relationship.

As a result, he had always arranged work for Roger, so the latter would not have the time to meet withWendy. Even if others said he was selfish and controlling, he did not care.

In the present, Wendy was to participate in a variety show, so she had to come to the company inadvance to prepare.

As her agent, of course, Roger had to be with her.

As soon as Kane found out that Wendy had arrived at the company, he followed her to the lounge,knowing that Roger was with her.

After listening the whole story, Wendy was speechless.

‘'Damn! No wonder Kane's attitude towards me was strange when I signed the contract.It turned outthat he regarded me as a rival in love, ‘' she mused.

"Mr.Kane, if something is going on between Roger and me, don't you think it would've happened whenwe were still in the US a long time ago? Why would we wait until now?"

Kane was silent.

What Wendy had said made sense.

He knew Ryan liked her, and he believed with Ryan's charm, it should be not difficult for her to beattracted by him.

However, Roger was also an excellent man.

That was the reason why Kane got so defensive and possessive of him.

After being silent for a long time, Kane finally opened his mouth to speak.

"I apologize for my attitude just now," he said solemnly.

Wendy just rolled her eyes at him.She had always known that Roger had someone in his heart.

However, she never expected that it was Kane all along.

All of a sudden, something occurred to her.

‘'So that's why Kane agreed without hesitation when I asked him to sign a contract with my agent aswell.I see everything now" she concluded.

The coffee in Wendy's hand had now gotten cold, so she finally put the cup down.

With a resolute look on her face, she looked at Kane and said, "As Roger's friend, Mr.Kane, I'm afraid Ihave to ask this.What are you going to do next? Let me just remind you—Even though you love Rogerso much, you're already married to someone else.You just can't let him be your paramour!"

Upon hearing that, Kane's expression changed at once.

"Stop saying nonsense!" he warned.

‘'A paramour? How ridiculous! How dare she insult Roger like that!'’ he thought to himself.

Wendy shrugged and replied, "It sounds mean, but it's the truth! You're already married and have anew life.You shouldn't pester Roger anymore and make him confused! You should live your own lifewell, while Roger does his job as my agent.You two shouldn't disturb each other's peace anymore

since you've made that decision long ago.You should just move on with life and pretend you don't knoweach other for the sake of everyone."
