A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 69

Luis clenched his teeth and said, "Kadin, don't go too far."

Kadin approached Luis, sticking his finger hard at Luis' chest, glaring at Luis, and he said viciously, "I indeed push you too far. So what? Hit me if you can!"

Luis clenched his hands even tighter, his knuckles cracking.

Kadin looked down defiantly at Luis' hands and pointed at his right cheek.

"Do you want to hit me? Come on, hit me here!"

Luis was really spoiling for hitting Kadin desperately.

Luis stayed true to his founding mission and the medicines of his brands were real and cheap. So his company didn't make much money these past few years with low-profit margins.

Now that Kadin was asking for a huge amount of compensation. Pine Pharmaceutical Company was likely to go bankrupt because of this case.

All of Luis' years of hard work might be ruined.

Luis had Lance as his backer. Even if Luis was angry, he didn't dare to get even with Kadin. If Luis angered Kadin, he didn't know what else Kadin would do.

Therefore, Luis could only endure it.

Kadin walked up the stairs of the courthouse. He lifted his left leg halfway when his right knee suddenly hurt, and his whole body convulsed. The next, Kadin rolled downstairs off balance and happened to roll to Luis' feet.

Kadin awkwardly climbed up from Luis' feet.

Kadin's assistant and lawyer ran over in a hurry.

There were media reporters following him. Kadin falling just now was photographed by a reporter. Kadin pointed at the reporter angrily, "I'll remember you. Smash the camera. Otherwise, I will put your company out of business right now!"

The reporter knew Kadin was Lance's brother-in-law. Of course, he didn't dare to provoke Kadin. So he smashed his camera in front of Kadin.

When the reporter smashed the camera, Kadin glared at Luis. Audrey happened to walk downstairs to Luis.

"Good morning, Mr. Luis!"

"Ms. Audrey, I'll leave it to you."

Kadin looked at Audrey and his eyes lit up.

Before Luis and Audrey could reach the stairs, Kadin quickly stopped them.

"What a beautiful lawyer. Are you sure you want to defend a man who's bound to lose?" Kadin did not conceal his intentions and looked at Audrey up and down indecently, saying, "Why don't you defend me and I'll give you double commission?"

Luis winced slightly.

If Audrey were to go back on her word and defend Kadin, Luis would definitely lose today.

Audrey sneered at Kadin.

"Why does Mr. Kadin think that I will definitely lose?"

Audrey was proud, which aroused Kadin's desire to conquer.

"Great beauty!" Kadin asked in confidence, "Shall we make a bet?"

Audrey chuckled, "How?"

"How about we just bet on today's trial?" Kadin said confidently, "If I win, you sleep with me for one night. If ... you win, you can make a condition to me!"

If Bryson and Shane weren't in court today, Audrey might not be confident that she could win the lawsuit, but ... they came....

Audrey smiled and nodded, "Yes, everyone present are witnesses. I hope that Mr. Kadin can keep your word."

"Of course!" Kadin raised his chin arrogantly, "I have always been a man of my word."

"Alright then, Mr. Kadin. Please wait and see how it turns out!"

Kadin's obscene eyes fell on Audrey as if he was stripping Audrey's clothes, "Ms. Audrey, I'll see you at the end of the trial."

After saying that, Kadin instructed the assistant behind her in front of Audrey, "Go to a nearby five-star hotel and book a deluxe couple suite."

Luis was puzzled.

With Lance as his backer, Kadin also looked quite handsome.

Audrey and Kadin made a bet. Was she determined to lose the lawsuit and be with Kadin?

Audrey walked up the steps and realized that Luis didn't follow, so she turned around and called out, "Mr. Luis, aren't you going in?"

"Of course!"

Regardless of what it turned out, Luis could only accept his fate today.

...

Before Audrey and the others could enter the courtroom, Melvin hung up and walked behind Bryson, who was sitting in the public gallery.

Melvin nervously called out, "Mr. Bryson."

"What is it?"

"Well, I just received news that Ms. Audrey made a bet with Kadin outside the courtroom."

Bryson frowned, "What?"

"That's ... If Ms. Audrey wins lawsuit today, Kadin will agree to Ms. Audrey's condition. If Ms. Audrey loses...."

"What if she loses?" Bryson narrowed his sharp eyes.

Melvin replied truthfully, "Kadin said that if Ms. Audrey loses, Ms. Audrey will spend a night with him!"

Melvin saw that Bryson looked threateningly cold and he felt Bryson's intimidating aura.

Bryson's thin lips compressed into a line. A moment later, Bryson sneered.

"Very good!"

Melvin was confused.

Melvin was indeed puzzled.

What did Bryson mean by saying 'very good'?

Didn't Bryson like Audrey? Now that he heard that Audrey would be with another man if she lost the lawsuit, how could Bryson still say that?

Looking at the sinister look in Bryson's eyes, Melvin suddenly came to his senses.

Melvin thought Kadin won't be able to win today.

...

Kadin walked in with his assistant and lawyer.

As soon as he entered the courtroom, Kadin felt someone staring at him. Their eyes were so sharp that Kadin feel uncomfortable.

Kadin searched everywhere and in the end, he found them in the public gallery.

Kadin frowned when he saw Bryson's eyes.

Bryson's eyes were extremely hostile and aggressive. Besides, when Kadin's eyes met Bryson's, he felt Bryson's hostility.

Although Bryson was sitting in the public gallery, he looked so powerful.

Not only Bryson, but also the white-haired old man beside him also looked influential, dignified and formidable.

Why were them in court today?

Just as Kadin thought about it, Audrey and Luis entered the courtroom together.

Kadin's eyes fell on Audrey and he sized her up viciously.

Kadin felt that when he looked at Audrey, Bryson's eyes became sharper.
