My Bossy CEO Husband

Chapter 307: Stubborn Josie

Upon hearing that, Anson burst into laughter.

"Why are you laughing?" Josie retorted, glaring at him.

"I'm laughing at you..." Anson replied, looking at her.

"Nothing Wendy does would ever satisfy you. If she stays at home with Precious all day, you will thinkthat she is fawning over Precious so that she can marry Ryan.And if she goes to work, you'll say thatshe doesn't care about the kids. Josie, there is no pleasing you."

Josie could not help but blush at his comment. What he said was true, indeed.So she had no choicebut to admit it.She just didn't like Wendy.

Hence, no matter what Wendy did, she always found fault with her.

Josie touched her nose and said, I know that she is busy with her work, but that doesn't mean that shecannot be with the kids.

Ever since Precious came home from school, she has been waiting for her messages.

The kid misses her so much.Can't she spare some time for her?

The more Josie thought about it, the more furious she became.

"She can work all she wants, but she has been a bad example for Ryan. Now, he doesn't care aboutPrecious, either."

"I don't think so. If she didn't care about Precious, why would she call her late in the night?"

Josie wanted to disagree, but her words failed her.

After a long time, she said, "Couldn't she call her earlier? What time is it now? She must have wokenPrecious up from her sleep."

Anson shook his head, feeling speechless.He knew that it was pointless to argue with a woman whowas furious.

So he kept silent.

Anson picked up his reading glasses from the bedside table and continued reading his book.novelbin

However, Josie wouldn't drop it.She nudged his elbow and continued, "Why can't you say something?"

Upon hearing that, Anson sighed.

"What do you want me to say? No matter what I say, you would only assume that I am taking Wendy'sside.Am I wrong?" Josie glared at him.

‘Why can't he say something that I want to hear? Is that a lot to ask for?’ She snorted and turned awayangrily.

Anson had no choice but to hold her hand.

"You're already in your fifties. How can you still be such a child?"

Josie snorted again in response.

"You don't have to worry about your son.Ryan is not stupid.He can make his own decisions."

However, Josie could not help feeling worried.

"He has never been in love before, and I'm afraid that he might have fallen for a ruse."

"A ruse? What would people even want from him?"

"Money, of course!"

Anson laughed again.

"I'm sure that money is the last thing Ryan needs now.If Wendy is after money, then it's fine.It wouldonly teach him a lesson.And that's a good thing, because then he will know that he should've listenedto you."

Josie did not know what to say.

Although his words sounded reasonable, it didn't feel right.

"I would actually prefer for her to have ulterior motives.Well, don't worry about him.Let's go to bed."

Anson put down the book, took off his glasses, and lay down.

Josie heaved a sigh.She also lay down and turned off the night lamp.

The room was covered in darkness.

However, Josie still couldn't fall asleep, and she could tell that Anson was also awake.She was able tohear him breathing.

"Anson, did you hear about Jaylen?" she asked as she turned over.

Suddenly, there was a chill in the room.

Anson took a moment to reply, "Why are you talking about him now?"

"I heard that Nellie is arranging blind dates for Brian and Bruce, and she is doing it almost every day."

In the darkness, Anson cursed in a low voice, "The biggest mistake he ever made in his life was tomarry Nellie.If it weren't for her...Well, never mind.That's history.Whenever some problem occurs in thecompany, she always takes shortcuts instead of solving it directly.Look at those girls she is choosing forthe boys.All the girls she chose are single children to their parents.I bet everyone knows her motives bynow.It’s an absolute disgrace!"

At the mention of Jaylen and Nellie, there was a tension in the room.

For the past fifteen years, Jaylen and Nellie had been despised members of their family.

They had tacitly avoided mentioning them, especially in front of Ryan.

Josie sighed.

"I pity the two boys..."

She meant Brian and Bruce.She had watched them both grow up with Ryan and Luke, so she lovedthem.She was especially fond with Bruce.

Ever since he started working in the entertainment circle, his relationship with his parents became bad,while he was growing closer to Josie and Anson.

Bruce would always visit them during holidays, bearing gifts.She liked Bruce, who was only a few yearsyounger than Luke.

Josie sighed.

"I heard that Bruce met a girl from the Andrade family."

"The Andrade family?"

"Yes.I met her when she was a kid.She is a nice, well- mannered girl, who is also very beautiful andeducated.But I don't think they would get along well.Bruce is a playboy who hates rules.Blind dates arenot his thing."

"Children will find their own ways, but for that, we have to let them do their own things."

"Anson..."

"What?"

"What if Jaylen and Nellie plead with us to..." Anson snapped, "Don't worry. The have to clean up theirown messes. I am not helping them!"

Josie was relieved upon hearing that.She had also suffered a lot back then.

Jaylen and his wife had been cruel to Ryan.She would never forgive them.

However, she was concerned that Anson might feel differently.

After all, Jaylen was his son too.

Ryan was a great son who had achieved a lot, while Jaylen was a poor performer.

Moreover, Jaylen had two sons, and Jaylen liked Bruce a lot.

Josie was worried that Anson might be more softhearted since he was older now.

She was relieved when she heard his firm answer.

At the same time, Wendy finished her video call with Precious. She was getting a facial done.

After all, she was not a natural beauty.

Since she was an actress, she had to pay a lot of attention to her looks. She usually had a lot of workto do, so she would often have to wear a lot of makeup, which was bad for her skin.

That was the reason most actresses had compromised skin.

They looked beautiful in front of the camera, but once they removed their makeup, they would not beas pleasant to look at.

Wendy knew that, so she took great care of herself.She was-young, and since she maintained her skinwell, it was not too bad.

After applying the mask, she washed her face, and applied skin care products.

By the time she was done, it was past ten o'clock.She let out a yawn and was about to go to bed.

She had not been able to sleep till two in the morning the night before, and Roger had woken her up atfive, so she had less than three hours of sleep.

In addition to that, she was at her shoot all day long.

So she was exhausted and sleepy.

As she lay in the bed, she couldn't help but think of Ryan.

She heard that when he had suffered from severe insomnia, he had only slept three hours a day.

She only had compromised sleep for one day, and she was already unable to cope.

But Ryan was suffering from insomnia for so many years.

‘How painful it must have been for him!"

Thinking of that, she drifted off to sleep.

Suddenly, Wendy felt a sharp pain in her abdomen.

Groaning, she woke up because of the pain. She covered her abdomen with her hand as her facepaled.
