The Domineering CEO Vs. The Arrogant CEO - Chapter 29

Sebastian was sleeping with his wife after their bout of happiness that can only be done in their bed, he was woken up by the sound of his phone ringing and was annoyed by his disturbed sleep. But upon seeing it was Ruyi, he was baffled why this person was calling him this late. He carefully peeled himself d=from his wife’s hold and went to the living room to answer the call.

“Sebby…” he heard sniffles and wondered why his boss, friend was crying.

“Ruyi? What’s wrong?” Sebastian was truly worried about his friend. On the moment he met and was hired by her up till now, his friend never showed her vulnerability and fragility to him and everyone else besides her family. He never asked about her past when he shut him off when he used to ask before.

6 months before…

“So how have you been Ruyi?” Sebastian asked her while giving the contract back to Ruyi.

“…” Ruyi was silent, more like avoided the topic. “Don’t worry about my life that’s much better than yours!” Ruyi was laughing, but Sebastian felt something was amiss and he knew from before to mind his own business once his friends starts to avoid the topic.

“You’re just jealous, aren’t you! I’m a taken man while you’re a young spinster!!!” Sebastian joked.

“Hahaha… funny very funny!” Ruyi said while slapping the arm of Sebastian in irritation. ‘ This bastard actually flaunted about his wife?’

*flashback ends*

“S-seb.. *hic* seb-by….Ahhhh!!!!” Sebastian was startled and frantic once her heard her break down. He never heard her cry like tht ever since that incident. He wants to ask what happened but decided against it and waited for his friend to calm down while continuing to let her pour out her grievances.

“Shh, shhh… hush Ruyi… I’m here. I’ll stay here listening to you or do you want me to come?” He was too worried about his friend. He is a curious man but he knows when this curiosity should be used. and he deemed that he must become a silent statue for her friend to vent on.

“Ahhh!!! N-no don’t come!!” Ruyi was scared to see Sebastian in her state. She immediately turned the phone off while whispering to herself to help her clam down.

If Sebastian knew what happened. He might go and run to a certain man’s home and bash him to pulp. He was there when Ruyi had that incident, and if he knew that incident happened again, he was ready to kill if necessary.

The next day, it was just another morning. Ruyi was prepped up for work, bonded and ate breakfast with the children and her uncle, and went to work earlier than she really does, unless there’s a meeting. She managed to cover up the traces of her frail state yesterday. And went to work as if nothing happened last night.

Everyone besides the children were worried for their miss. They were scared of how she bounced up quickly and was back to being their miss that they have been with for the past year, the kind and confident one. They hoped this day won’t turn out bad for the miss, but things are bound to happen whether they liked it or not.
