Chapter 195: He Is A Genius
Chapter 195: He Is A Genius
It seemed that Josie was waiting for Wendy to say something like this.
As soon as Wendy finished speaking, Josie headed straight towards the study, which was on the first floor.
"Follow me." Wendy hurried to catch up with her.
When she passed by Ryan, he grabbed her wrist.Her wrist was cold compared to the warmth of his palm.
Wendy did not look at him.
Instead, she continued to look straight ahead.
"Wendy, I will find Ray.I promise."
Wendy did not say a word.
"Just please give me some time."
At that, Wendy lowered her eyes and said, "I'm sorry!"
She broke free from Ryan's firm grip and walked towards the study without a backward glance.Ryan's eyes narrowed.
The blood drained from his face and his entire body turned tense.
Bang!
The door to the study slammed shut to keep anyone from eavesdropping.
Yet, Luke walked over and pressed his ear against the door.
He listened for a while but was unable to hear a thing.
Luke exclaimed in frustration, "Shit! What is this door made of? I can't hear anything!"
He paced back and forth in front of the study.
"What should I do? Mom has always been against your relationship with Wendy.She has been spoiled by Dad.And that's why she has this hair-trigger temper.No one knows that better than us.Wendy is no pushover, either.Now that they are in the same room, I wonder what will happen."
When he stopped ranting and turned to look at Ryan, Luke noticed that he was sitting on the sofa with Precious in his arms.
There was no expression on Ryan's face.
Luke started to feel a little anxious.
"Ryan, why are you not worried at all?"
After all, Ryan's mother and the woman he liked were alone in the study.
And Josie didn't like Wendy.
'The bystander is more concerned than the concerned person, who is currently unconcerned about the concerned matter.
Oh my God! It is like a tongue twister! Luke strode over to Ryan and asked, "Ryan, why aren't you worried?"
Ryan felt it was useless to worry.
No one knew better than him what those two women were discussing in the study.
Tired, Ryan pinched the bridge of his nose.
"Ryan..."
"Have you found Ray?" Ryan interrupted.
"I just received word that it would take some time."
Ryan smiled bitterly when he heard what Luke had to Say.Luke had never seen Ryan like this.He couldn't help but worry.
"Ryan, are you okay?"
"Maybe, I can't wait any longer." Luke was confused.
He was unable to understand what Ryan meant.
"What are you talking about?"
Instead of explaining, Ryan massaged his eyebrows and said, "Ask them to look for Ray as soon as possible!"
"All right!"
Compared to the living room, everything was silent in the study.
The room was tastefully decorated according to the latest Chinese designs.
There were several tall bookshelves filled with books.
A desk made out of mahogany, with beautiful craftsmanship, was placed near the window. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Two wooden armchairs were placed on either side of the desk.
Outside, the rain was pouring heavily.
The sound was deafening that it made people feel as if they had traveled back in time when there was no electricity or technology.
Josie pulled out a chair and sat down.She picked up a book and started to read it.She had no intention to speak first.
On the other hand, Wendy had no time to waste.
She frowned and said in a low voice, "Mrs.Oliver—"
"Even in my wildest dreams, I never dreamt that Ryan would become a businessman,"
Josie interrupted Wendy without looking up from the book.
Wendy stood without moving.
She knew that Josie wanted to say something, so she just looked at her and didn't say a word.
Sure enough, after a short pause, Josie spoke again.
"Ryan has always been clever.
We got his IQ tested and found out that his IQ is as high as 160.
Do you know what that means? Average people's IQ is between 85 and 115.
Only 14.5% of people have an IQ in the range of 110 to 120.
Only 7% of people have an IQ in the range of 120 to 130.
Only 3% of people have an IQ in the range of 130 to 140.
Only 0.2% of people have an IQ higher than 160.
It means Ryan is a genius Wendy did not say a word.Josie finally kept the book aside and looked at Wendy.
"Ryan can learn anything in a short period.He can recite an entire book after only reading it once.He has a photographic memory.Also, his ability to think logically on any given occasion cannot be ignored.He finished high school at the age of ten.By the time he was sixteen, he acquired a dual master's degree.He is our pride."
Wendy continued to remain silent.
"In the past, I thought that he would enhance his academic career and concentrate on studying further, but as I said before, I never expected him to choose the business world," Josie said with pride in her voice.
"At any given time, a genius is always better than ordinary or average people.Therefore, even though he chose to do business, he is still the best at it.Ryan knows everything about investment.He has a precise vision, and every dollar he has invested has been accurate.A few years ago, during the financial crises, many companies collapsed, but Oliver Group was the only company that thrived.Its profits doubled during that dark time."
At this point, Wendy interrupted her, "Why are you telling me all this? I don't need to know any of this!"
"You need to know!" Josie looked Wendy square in the eye.
"You should know how excellent my son is!"
"I know and admit that Ryan is indeed outstanding."
"To tell you the truth, there is no man in the whole of Ywood who is as gifted as Ryan! So without a doubt, he deserves the best woman in the world by his side!" Wendy pursed her lips as soon as she heard what Josie said.
"I always thought so.But I found out that Ryan didn't like to interact with women.He was socially stunted and didn't like to communicate with others.He was cold to everyone.We put in a lot of effort to make him interested in women.We even found a psychologist for him, but that failed too.So, with a heavy heart and disappointment, I lowered my standards for his future wife."
Wendy had already guessed what Josie was going to say and in which direction the conversation was heading.
"As time went by, my standards were at an all-time low.At one time, I even thought that I would be fine as long as the girl was a virgin and Ryan liked her."
Josie stopped and looked at Wendy.
"But I never expected that my son would fail in love with you!"
Wendy did not open her mouth to say anything.
"Purity is my last requirement, and you obviously do not meet that particular requirement."
"So that's the reason you kidnapped Ray?"
Josie nodded and said, "I was always eager to find out what type of woman could fascinate my son.Ryan wants to be with you regardless of the fact that you already have a child of your own.I always wanted to meet you, but he stopped me again and again.So, I had no choice but to do this."
Wendy asked, "Where is Ray?"
"Don't worry.He is safe and sound."
Josie stood up and demanded, "Wendy, I hope you will leave my son alone."
"Okay."
Josie hadn't expected Wendy to say yes so quickly.She was stunned into speechless for a while.
Seeing this, Wendy smirked.
"Wasn't this the answer you were waiting to hear, Mrs.Oliver?"
Although Wendy promised, Josie was still skeptical.She wondered whether Wendy would keep her word.
"Wendy, I advise you not to play any games with me.I have your son kidnapped to make you realize that as long as you have a weakness, you cannot defeat me!"
