A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 41

However, the robbery should only be an accident.

Even if it wasn't, how could anyone have predicted that Mrs. Huntley's grandson would run up to confront with the robber?

No matter what, she didn't have to go on a blind date this time.

She let out a sigh of relief.

Kylee especially liked spicy food, so Audrey put many chili peppers in the boiled fish with pickled cabbage.

Despite the Kylee's preference, Audrey did not allow her to overeat spicy food. After all, Kylee was already in her seventies. Excessive spicy food would be terrible for her health.

However, Kylee had always been a big fan of boiled fish with pickled cabbage.

Bryson did not like spicy food, so Audrey ate most of the boiled fish.

Audrey also liked spicy food, but she still couldn't bear it after eating so much at once.

After dinner, Audrey felt as if her stomach was on fire, but she didn't care too much about it since it was bearable.

Then Audrey accompanied Kylee to the garden for a walk as usual before returning home.

While walking with Kylee, Audrey felt a burning pain in her stomach.

She was afraid that Kylee would be worried, so she walked with pain and prepared to visit the clinic on her way home.

When Audrey accompanied Kylee back to the villa, her face was already pale in pain. Cold shivers ran down her body.

Because the lights in the garden were dim, and Kylee had poor vision, she didn't notice anything wrong with Audrey.

As a result, when entering the villa's bright hall, Kylee looked at Audrey in surprise.

"Elliana, what's the matter? You don't look well."

Audrey gritted her teeth, desperately fighting the urge to groan. She vaguely heard Kylee's question and forced herself to respond with a smile.

"Grandma, I'm fine ... I..."

For some reason, she felt that everything in the room started to blur. She was getting closer and closer to the ground.

Seeing Audrey fall before her, Kylee cried anxiously, "Elliana, Elliana, are you okay? Elliana, don't scare grandma!"

Hardly did Kylee finish her sentence before a figure flashed past the room and left the villa with Audrey in his arms.

Kylee was stunned for a moment before picking up Audrey's jacket on the sofa and chasing after it.

"Bryson, slow down. Wait for me!"

...

In the VIP room of the Peace City's First Hospital.

Audrey, lying deep asleep in the bed, had been placed on an intravenous drip. Isotonic saline was infused into her body.

Her face was still pale but much better than just now when she was in the Cordova Mansion.

Bryson stared fixedly at Audrey. His gaze was icy-cold as if he could freeze the ward with eyesight.

Right now, Bryson was like a wild beast, ready to rip off the throats of people around him if anything wrong happened to Audrey.

In the ward stood the trembling Director of the Peace City's First Hospital, Andrew Evans, and his assistant.

Andrew took over the medical report from his assistant and carefully said to Bryson, "Mr. Bryson, please don't worry. The young lady has probably overeaten spicy food. Therefore, she gets acute gastroenteritis. As long as she receives the IV infusion, the fever will be gone soon, and she will recover after a few more days' rest."

Andrew, called to the hospital by Bryson in the middle of the night, thought something wrong had happened to Kylee. As a result, it was a girl who got gastroenteritis. He couldn't help but feel himself overqualified for a job like this.

However, he didn't dare to complain in front of Bryson.

He knew that Bryson could get him fired with a single order.

What was more, rumors said that Bryson was not interested in women.

Now, Bryson had personally sent a girl to the hospital in the middle of the night. The rumors were rumors.

However, he wondered who the girl was--that could won Bryson the golden bachelor's heart.

He didn't dare to ask Bryson about that, though.

Bryson had also silenced everyone about sending the girl to the hospital.

Kylee, who had been worried till now, let out a sigh of relief.

"That's great. I was scared to death just now. What should I do if anything bad happens to her?" Kylee held Audrey's hand, and there was a concerned expression on her face.

Andrew was slightly surprised.

Even Kylee liked this girl. She was probably the future Young Madam of the Cordova family.

"Kylee, please don't worry. The young lady will be fine."

"But why isn't she awake yet?" asked Kylee.

"Kylee, she has taken some medicine which contains sedative. After taking a good rest now, she will wake up tomorrow morning," explained Andrew.

Kylee sighed with relief, "Alright, that's good."

Andrew awkwardly stood still after finishing the explanation.

Bryson glanced at him indifferently. "You may leave now," said Bryson.

"Yes, Mr. Bryson."

Andrew left with all his assistants. Only Kylee and Bryson accompanied Audrey in the ward.

"Grandma, you should go back to the mansion and take some rest. I'll take care of Elliana."

Kylee frowned, "No, you still have a meeting at the company tomorrow. You need a good rest tonight. Go home, and I'll stay here with Elliana."

"Grandma!" Bryson lowered his voice and said, "Please don't make me take care of two patients."

Kylee was speechless.

Her health condition left her no choice but to compromise.

"Alright, then. It would be best if you take a break from time to time. I'll be here early tomorrow morning."

"Yes, grandma."

...

After Kylee left, Audrey's phone rang.

Bryson saw the name on the screen--Nell Hutt.

It was probably the woman who drank with Audrey that night. She and Audrey should have a good relationship.

Bryson picked up the phone. He was afraid that she would worry about Audrey if he didn't.

Before Bryson could speak, he heard Nell shouting, "Elliana, have you slept with Bryson when you went to the Cordova family today? Tell me now!"

Bryson didn't know what to say.

Nell continued, though without Elliana's response, "I'm telling you: a man like Bryson calls for exceptional measures. Just put something in his food or tea, and he is yours."

Bryson was speechless.

Finally, Nell became impatient and asked, "Elliana, did you hear me?"

Bryson whispered to the phone, "Ms. Nell, this is Bryson."

Now it was Nell's turn to be speechless.
