Chapter 21: Let Me Help You Take Off Your Pants
"Ah!"Wendy exclaimed.
"Get out!"Ryan did nothing of the sort, and instead strode over to her and helped her up.
A few seconds later, Ray and Precious were also rushing into the bathroom.
"Mommy!"
"Auntie!" Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
Then, they asked in unison, "Are you all right?"Wendy forced a tight smile.
"I'm fine."
= The children eyed her with obvious doubt.
"You two go out first,"
Ryan said.
Ray didn't budge or say anything, but he did look up at the towering man.
Precious also hesitated, whining, "Daddy..."
"Your auntie needs to pee.You shouldn't be here."
The little boy's frown deepened.
He knew Ryan was right.
He might only be three years old, but he understood the concept of privacy well.
His mother could indeed not relieve herself with himself and Precious in the bathroom, but what about Ryan? Why did it seem like the man intended to stay in the bathroom with his Mommy?! As if reading the boy's mind, Ryan raised a brow and shot him a challenging look.
"Are you able to support and assist your Mommy?"
Ray finally understood then, even as he glanced at his short limbs with chagrin.
He silently stepped out of the bathroom, and Precious followed behind him.
When the kids were gone, Wendy finally let go of her calm expression and rubbed her buttocks with a grimace.
They hurt.
They really hurt! Just now, she supported herself against the wall.
After Ryan got out of the bathroom, she slowly let go of her hand.
Then she sat down on the toilet cover.
She didn't stand up until she could feel her two legs.
Well, first and foremost, she needed to take off her pants.
But she discovered to her dismay that she had been overestimating her two legs.
She had barely stood upright when her legs became jelly, wobbling under her weight until she had no choice but to drop to the floor, landing on her bum.
The pain from the impact was enough to make her cry, and her face twisted in frustration since she was still unable to attend to her needs.
She tried to pull her weight with her hands braced on the wall again, shaking off Ryan's arm when he offered it.
"You get out of here, too!"
"Stop pushing yourself too hard!"
His face darkened as he reached for her again, not letting go this time.
With his other hand, he opened the toilet cover, then his eyes went to Wendy's pajama bottoms.
His internal conflict was evident in his gaze.
This was a much more difficult decision to make compared to all the business deals he had ever handled in the board room.
A second passed.
Then another one.
Then another three.
After what felt like a century, Ryan finally made up his mind.
His eyes steeled as his hand reached for her waistband.
Wendy's face turned pale with alarm.
"Ryan Oliver! What do you think you're doing?"
"Either I help you with your clothes, or you do it by yourself while holding me to keep yourself standing straight, pick a choice!"
"There's no way I'm letting you do that!"
"Fine,"Ryan grumbled.
"Then you can just pee on your pants."
Wendy's jaw dropped.
She glared at him, but given her struggle with her bladder, her face didn't look as intimidating as she had intended.
She bent over her trembling legs, her tone bitter.
"I'll have you know that this is all happening because I let you sleep peacefully.
Why are you being so ungrateful?"
"That's why I'm trying to repay the favor!"
Indeed, if it had been someone else, he wouldn't have cared even if they died holding in their pee.
"Ryan Oliver..."
"I did fall asleep last night, but it wasn't like I was in a deep slumber.And I do acknowledge what you've done to me."
His words were so out of the blue, Wendy was confused and didn't understand what he was trying to say.
Ryan patted his pocket in his pants slowly.
In an instant, a warm stream rushed over Wendy's head, and her face was as red as blood.
"You, you, you...I...I..I was looking for your phone.I thought you fainted and wanted to call someone to come to save you.I...I didn't mean to touch your penis!"
Ryan smirked, the look in his face saying something along the lines of, "Whatever you say."
Wendy was at a loss.
He meant to tell her that she had already touched his penis.
So she should not feel too shy now.
"All right, you win!"she shouted.
All of her bravado from a while back had disappeared.
"Close your eyes!"she ordered.
He complied.
Wendy held on to his arm with one hand and took off her pajamas bottoms with the other.
She stared at him the whole time, afraid he might peek at some point.
He didn't, but she felt humiliated nonetheless.
When the trousers business was dealt with, she quickly sat on the toilet.
The moment her skin touched the bowl, everything she held in just burst forth.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! The sound was practically deafening, especially since there were only the two of them in the small space.
Wendy was mortified, and she swore under her breath.
She had never experienced such shame in all her life! When she was done, she quickly cleaned herself and pulled her pants up.
"Are you done?"She said nothing.
Ryan opened his eyes and glanced at her red face.
She looked like a rabid wild cat that could attack at any time, what with the fierce glare she was shooting in his direction.
Mirth flashed across his eyes.
Well, finally! Ryan picked her up again and carried her out of the bathroom.
Back in the living room area, Luke was squirming giddily on his seat, both of his hands pressed against his heart.
When he saw his brother and Wendy approach, he leaned over to Leo and whispered excitedly, "Look, he's holding her again! Leo, this is the third time Ryan has ever embraced that woman.I told you, didn't I? In my brother's eyes, she's different from any other women.No, wait.It's not just my brother, but even Precious as well.Wendy is special to my niece, too.Wow, at this rate, I really might have a sister-in-law soon."
No sooner had Ryan put Wendy down on the sofa that she was scrambling away from him.
She didn't even bother with niceties or excuses and directly told the guests to leave.
"You should go now!"
If she had known beforehand about the events of the previous night, she would never have had let Ryan and his daughter stay.
"Dear Wendy"
"You should leave, too!"
Luke was about to protest, but a glance from his brother stopped him.
Then Ryan took the clothes his people had brought for him and headed into Ray's bedroom to change.
He called out to his daughter when he was done.
"Precious!"
"Are we leaving, Daddy?"
The girl didn't want to go, but her father nodded.
She pouted and lowered her head, then turned to Raymond.
"Ray, I'm leaving."
"Okay."
"I'll come to play with you again next time."
The boy looked up at Ryan and stared for a while before nodding.
"All right!"
"I will miss you.
You must miss me, too."
"Yes, fine."
Then Precious walked over to Wendy, and her reluctance was evident in her tone when she spoke.
"Auntie, I have to go with Daddy..."
Wendy's face softened a little.
"All right."
"Then...bye, Auntie."
"Bye!"
Ryan picked up his daughter and took the elevator downstairs with Luke and Leo in tow.
"Brother!"
Luke kept rambling.
"Tell me the truth.Tell me! Do you like Wendy? Do you have a crush on her? You do, don't you?"
His pesky questions were met with cold silence, and Luke stamped his foot.
"Oh, come on! Just tell me! Tell me quickly! I'm dying to know!"
Well, it wasn't just him Leo and Precious were also waiting with bated breaths for Ryan's answer.
Still, the man maintained his silence.
When they exited the elevator, Ryan pulled out his phone and turned it on.
He scrolled through his contacts and pressed on Kane's number. : His call was immediately answered.
"Yes, Ryan?"
Ryan went straight to the point.
"Hello, Kane.I want you to prepare the contract with Wendy Finch and e -mail it to me within three days.I want to go over it and check the terms myself.”
