My Toxic Husband

My Toxic Husband

He's so cold...

The story's first meeting between Ryan and Bella in the library:

Ryan walked into the library, scanning the shelves for a book on business strategy. He was lost in his thoughts, his mind constantly working on finding new ways to expand his empire. That was until he heard a gentle voice speak up from behind him.

"Excuse me, sir. Can I help you find something?"

Ryan turned around to see the source of the voice standing behind him, and was taken aback by the sight of a woman he had never seen before. Her delicate features, soft brown hair, and timid demeanor were like a breath of fresh air, a stark contrast to the cold, calculated world he was used to. He found himself at a loss for words, his usual suave demeanor failing him in this moment.

Ryan cleared his throat, composing himself. “Yes, actually. I’m looking for a book on business strategy. Do you know if you have anything along those lines?”

The woman smiled politely and nodded. “Yes, we do. Let me show you where our business section is.” She gestured for Ryan to follow her, walking down one of the aisles towards the back of the library.

Ryan followed the woman in silence, his eyes occasionally straying to her petite frame and the way her hips moved with each step. He couldn’t help but feel a sense of curiosity about her, as she exuded a kind of innocence and vulnerability that was unfamiliar to him.

As they walked through the library, Ryan couldn’t take his eyes off the woman leading the way. There was something about her that drew him in, a quiet strength and dignity that he found captivating. He was used to being surrounded by fake, materialistic women, but this woman was different. She was natural, genuine, and seemingly untainted by the world of money and power that he thrived in.

As they finally reached the business section, the woman turned to face him. “Here are ourBusiness and business strategy books. If you need any more help, feel free to let me know.”

Ryan nodded, but found himself loathe to part ways with the woman. He had come to the library for a book, but he was finding her presence much more intriguing. He needed to say something, anything, to prolong their conversation.

“Actually,” Ryan began, surprising himself with his own words. “I couldn’t help but notice that you didn’t ask for my name.”

It was true that Ryan was cold, and he didn’t like small talk. But there was something about this woman that made him want to keep talking to her, to learn more about her. He found himself breaking his usual rules of distance and detachment, and it was a strange feeling for him.

The woman, who was caught off guard by Ryan's question, blushed slightly. “Oh, forgive me. I should have asked for your name. I’m Bella Uzun.”

Ryan took in her name, storing it away in his mind. “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Bella.” He paused, trying to think of a way to keep the conversation going.
