The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge (Anna and Justin) novel Chapter 1550

It was already late at night when Ryan arrived home.

Yasmin was on her way out of the laundry room with a basket of clothes, when she noticed that Ryan had come back. She quickly set aside her work to greet him.

“Where’s Carrie? Is she asleep?” Ryan took off his suit jacket and tossed it to her. His face was flushed with excitement.

“Young Madam is already asleep.”

“Oh…” Ryan felt slightly disappointed but quickly smiled again. “Well, I’ll let her know in the morning then.”

Yasmin blinked and asked, “Young Master Hoffman, is there good news?”

“Grandpa agreed.” Ryan’s charming eyes sparkled brightly, his voice trembling with excitement.

“Grandpa agreed for me to marry Carrie!”

“Really?!” Yasmin felt a surge of happiness, tears glistening in her eyes. “Congratulations! It’s like a dream come true for you and Young Madam. This is just amazing!”

“On the way back, my mother also called me and said she could also agree to accept Carrie, but on the condition that Zoe comes back.” Ryan's gaze turned cold.

He said, “How absurd. When did my sweet mother learn to negotiate? Does she really think that I won’t marry Carrie if she doesn’t agree?”

Yasmin nodded in agreement. Claire often struggled to make clear decisions on important issues. Since Finn passed away, Ryan has been the main support for the household. Otherwise, Liam would have long taken over.

Ryan’s expression turned serious. “But the only reason Grandpa agreed is because Liam put in a few good words. We need to keep an eye out for whatever schemes that guy is plotting.”

“Liam is always looking out for his own interests. You must be careful,” Yasmin said as her expression turned cold and serious.

…

Ryan took a quick shower and then slipped into bed, contentedly lying next to Carrie. The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, unable to fall asleep.

He quietly snuggled closer to her warm, fragrant body. Initially, he just wanted to be close, but that soon turned into a desire to hold her. This embrace ignited a fire within him, and he couldn’t resist lifting her nightgown, his hands wandering over her soft curves.

Carrie suddenly woke up, opening her sleepy eyes and hugging Ryan. “You’re back…”

“Sorry for waking you up, darling.” Ryan felt a little guilty, but he did not want to let go of her.

“Ryan... Do you want it?” Carrie had become so sensitive and considerate under his care that she could read his desires easily.

He sighed and simply hugged her waist tightly. “No, or else you won’t get any sleep tonight.”

“You seem happy.” Carrie closed her eyes and listened to his strong heartbeat. “Your heart is beating so fast, and I think I heard you laughing while I was asleep... What are you so happy about?”

Ryan took a deep breath and gently kissed her forehead, feeling overwhelmed with love.

“Carrie, I’m finally going to marry you. I want the world to see you as the wife of the Hoffman Group’s CEO. I want everyone to know how much you mean to me.”
