Luke was the closest to Wendy at that time.
However, before he could realize what had happened, he felt a gust of wind blew beside him.
In a blink of an eye, Ryan, who was sitting on the sofa a while ago, was now standing in front of
Wendy.
Ryan took the cup from her hand and poured the hot water into the sink.
Then, with a straight face, he poured her a cup of iced water.
"Does it hurt?" he asked with concern.
‘Of course, ' Wendy thought to herself, too hurt to speak.
Her tongue hurt so bad that it felt numb.She moved her tongue and licked her upper jaw.
‘Oh no.I think it's injured.It really hurts"
"Drink some iced water." Wendy took two small sips.
The iced water helped relieve the burning and stinging sensation in an instant.
"Open your mouth.Let me check it," he ordered.
‘I’m fine..."
"I said, open your mouth," Ryan repeated with more conviction.Sighing, Wendy had no choice but to do
as he said.
Since Ryan was tall, he could clearly see that her tongue was scalded, especially the tip.
In fact, a blister had already formed on it.His face darkened at the sight of this.
"Luke, calt Leo over."
"No!" Wendy protested at once.
"It's just hot water.I'll be fine tomorrow."
As Ryan saw that Luke did not move, he cast a cold glance at him and snapped, "Hurry up!"
"Okay!"
Luke immediately walked out to make a call.
"Wait!" Wendy tried to stop him, but it was too late.He had already left.
Wendy was at a loss for words, but there was nothing she could do about it.
"Sit down.Leo will be here soon," Ryan advised in a gentle tone.
"I told you, this isn't a big deal.I'll be fine tomorrow.I'm not that weak and fragile,"
Wendy replied in a funny manner as her tongue was painful and swollen.
However, Ryan just stared at her with his dark eyes.
‘Why is he looking at me like that? He's scary!’ Wendy exclaimed inwardly.
"Wendy!"
"What?"
She got startled.
He seldom called her by her full name."I don't care how you treated yourself before.But just so you
know, to me, you're fragile and delicate."
Wendy was stunned.Suddenly, her heart fluttered wildly in her chest.
"Also, I have nothing to do with Odette."
‘What?’ Wendy was flabbergasted as Ryan unexpectedly shifted the topic.
Her face turned beet red, and she averted her gaze in embarrassment.
"You didn't have to explain yourself.I have nothing to do with it anyway."
"Who said that?"
Ryan gently held her chin with his thumb and index finger and lifted it.
The two looked into each other's eyes for a moment, and then he added, "You're the mother of my
children."
It was only then that Wendy remembered who she was in his life.
‘Right.I'm the mother of his children.But why does it feel so strange?’ The atmosphere in the room
became romantic.
The temperature rose to a notch.
Wendy stood frozen to the spot.She did not move, but Ryan did.
Ever so slowly, he approached her.He got closer and closer.
Wendy seemed as though she were spell-bound.
She could not move and could only watch Ryan approach.
Now, they were several inches away from each other.
"Mommy!"
Wearing the clothes Wendy had bought, Precious ran excitedly towards the two.It was then that Wendy
snapped back to reality.
Startled, she took a step back away from Ryan.Her face was flushed, and her heart was pounding in
her chest.
She was so embarrassed that she could not meet his eyes.She could not help but clutch her chest as
she felt her heart fluttering uncontrollably.
‘Just now, was Ryan trying to kiss me?"
At that moment, Ryan was rooted to the spot.
He looked sharply at his daughter, disappointment written all over his face.Precious was oblivious that
she had just interrupted something.
With a sweet smile, she ran towards Wendy and spun around in front of her.
"Mommy, am I pretty?" Wendy's eyes lit up in delight.
"Yes!"
The little girl was wearing a white embroidered denim Jacket, a pink bubble skirt with a pair of white
leggings underneath.
To top it off, she put on a pair of leather shoes.
She spun around, and the hemline of her dress flew in the wind.She looked adorable, especially with
her chubby and rosy cheeks.
Wendy was in awe.
"Honey, you're so beautiful!" Precious smiled proudly.
"Of course, you have great taste!"
"Sweetie, I meant it.You're beautiful on your own."
The smile on Precious’ face grew even wider.She raised her chin and proudly said, "Well, I'm beautiful
because I have a handsome daddy and a beautiful mommy!"
Precious was a wonderful kid.
Even when she praised herself, she did not forget her parents.
With that, Wendy touched the little girl's head and reminded, "It's getting late.You should change into
your pajamas now and head to bed.Remember, you have to go to school tomorrow."
"Okay!"
As soon as Precious entered the bathroom, a gleam of light flashed in Ryan's eyes.
"I'm going to wash my face."
"Okay."
Wendy was confused, no idea why he felt the need to inform her.
At that moment, she sat on the edge of the bed and pondered how she was going to tell her daughter
that she would be staying with the crew for the next two weeks.
In the bathroom
"Ah! Daddy, I'm going to change.You can't come in!" Precious protested.
"You can change your clothes later." Ryan followed the little girl into the bathroom.
He then squatted down in front of her and looked into her eyes.
"I have something to tell you."
"What is it?"
"Your mommy is going to work in the set soon."
Precious scratched her head in confusion.
"But Mommy has already been doing that before."
"It's different this time.She has to live in the set.She won't come back until her filming is over.That
means we won't be able to see her in two weeks."
Precious’ face fell.
"No, no, no.I just got to know she's my mommy.I want to be with her every day."
"Then, what should we do?" Precious clenched her fists and said firmly, "I won't let her go!"
"What are you going to do then?"
Ryan asked with a cunning look.With a determined look, Precious patted her chest and answered, "I'm
good at crying!"
Satisfied, Ryan stood up, washed his face, and went out.
Five minutes later, Precious walked out of the bathroom after changing into her pajamas.
"Precious..."
"Mommy!"
"Come here.I have something to tell you."
Precious threw herself into Wendy's arms.
As Wendy noticed that she was only wearing thin clothes, she held her daughter in her arms and
wrapped the quilt around her.
The little girl was overjoyed.
"Precious, I'm going to work on the set soon.I might not be able to see you for two weeks."
Precious put her arms around Wendy's neck and shook her head in protest.
"No, no!"
"You don't want me to go?"
"No! I want you to be with me."
Wendy was patient with her daughter, so she held Precious’ hand and explained, "But I have to work."
Precious pouted and sulked.
Knowing that coaxing her daughter would not work, Wendy put on a sad look and sighed heavily.
"Alright.I won't go to work then.I'll stay at home with my sweetheart.But, I won't be able to act anymore.I
will be so sad"‘
“Mommy will be sad?’
Biting her nails, Precious looked up and saw that Wendy's eyes were lowered to the floor in dejection.
Out of panic, she hugged Wendy and blurted out, "Mommy, Mommy, I don't want you to be sad.You
can go to work if you want to.I'll support you!"
Ryan, who was sitting on the sofa and watching the two, fell speechless.
”Tsk.This girl gave in so quickly"!
