A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 74

As Lance was watching the video attentively, his phone rang.

The ring of his phone disturbed Lance, so he just ignored the caller's name showing on the phone screen and hung up.

Hardly had he hung up than the phone rang again. Lance hung up once again and directly turned the phone off.

Raye, on one side, was quick-eyed to saw the caller's name.

That was from Desiree.

Lance actually hung up on Desiree.

Not long after, Raye's phone rang. He glanced at his phone and it was from Desiree for sure.

As soon as Raye got through the phone, Desiree's impatient voice came over.

"Raye, what's wrong with Lance? I just called him, and he hung up on me. Moreover, when I called the third time, he should turn off the phone!"

Raye really didn't know how to explain to Desiree.

"Well, Mr. Lance is busy."

"No matter how busy he was, he has never hung up on me. Let him answer my call immediately. If he doesn't answer it, he will be a cuckold." Desiree threatened.

Raye wiped the sweat off his forehead and told Lance who was watching the video with undivided attention.

"Mr. Lance, it's from your wife."

Lance did not raise his head, "You can take it."

"But, your wife is looking for you. She also said that if you don't answer her phone, she ... she..."

"What would she do?"

"She will immediately cheat on you."

Lance took the phone from Raye's hand.

"What is it?" Lance said coldly.

"Why did you hang up on me just now?"

"I'm busy."

Desiree was furious, "You used to answer my call no matter how busy you were, but just now you not only hung up on me but also turned the phone off. Do you want to get a divorce?"

"Divorce?" Lance smiled coldly, "Alright."

Desiree was silent.

"Are you kidding me? Didn't you always love me? How could you want to divorce me? Let me tell you, Lance, my brother has been arrested. You should figure out a way to bail my brother out right now." Desiree said without fear.

"Desiree, do you think that I can't live without you?"

"You are not going to say that you love someone else now, are you?"

"But I do."

"What's her name?"

"Audrey!" Lance said in a low voice, "I'm watching the video of my girl's performance in court. I don't have time to talk to you."

Desiree suppressed his anger and said, "Lance, I will take an evening flight. Come to pick me up at Pine City International Airport tomorrow morning at eight o'clock."

"No!"

With that, Lance hung up the phone.

Raye was shocked.

The end of the world was coming. Judging from Lance's appearance, he seemed to have feelings for Audrey, but she is Bryson's fiancée.

Why did Lance take a fancy to someone else's fiancée?

Besides, he was a married man.

...

In the afternoon, Audrey went to the police station for deposition and handed over some evidence she had to the police station.

When Audrey went to the police station, she met someone who wanted to bail out Kadin. However, because Mr. Shane personally gave the order, no one in the police station dared to release Kadin. The person who wanted to bail out Kadin left in disappointment.

The police station was only three blocks away from the hotel.

Wisteria flowers bloomed all the way down the street. They looked absolutely charming. Audrey was going to walk back to the hotel.

She strolled under the wisteria trees.

The spring breeze blew over and a few purple petals danced with the breeze. Purple flowers snowed thick on the ground, creating a fairy-tale world.

Before long, Audrey walked to the place where she first met Lance.

She saw with her sharp eyes that there was a piece of string landing in the slit of the road.

If she was not mistaken, it was the string binding her pendant and there were emerald beads she had personally woven on it.

She lost that string during that fight. She didn't expect to see it here.

This string and her brother's string were cut off from the same red long thread.

She bent down and picked up the red string from the ground. With the sting in her hand, Audrey sighed in her heart.

She wondered whether her brother's pendant was still bound by that string.

Did he still remember ... that he had a sister?

Just as Audrey was about to get up and leave, a car suddenly stopped beside Audrey. The rear window pane was drawn up and there revealed Lance's sinister smile.

"Ms. Audrey, we meet again!"

On seeing Lance, Audrey became alert. Why would she run into Lance here?

"Why are you here?" Audrey asked in vigilance.

She suddenly regretted not taking the bus back to the hotel.

She shouldn't be careless. Pine City was still Lance's territory, so she couldn't relax for a moment.

Just as she was thinking this, several men rush forward and stood behind Audrey.

Audrey knew one of them. He was Bryson's bodyguard, Tyson. That meant these men were all Bryson's men.

They were hiding around Audrey to protect her, but she didn't notice them. These men were indeed well-trained.

On seeing those men around Audrey, Lance frowned and revealed a look of displeasure.

"I'm talking to Ms. Audrey. What are you doing here?"

Audrey said to Lance with an expressionless face, "Mr. Lance, I have nothing to say to you."

"You are so cruel." Even so, Lance did not have an angry expression on his face. "There are too many people today. Let's take a rain check today. When there is a chance, let's talk alone. I'll go first. See you!"

Audrey was silent.

With that, Lance drew down window and asked the driver to start the car.

Audrey finally relaxed after Lance's car disappeared from her sight.

The bodyguards standing beside Audrey had already hid themselves.

Audrey glanced at the hidden places of the bodyguards and then looked towards Lance seemed to be unsurprised that Bryson's people would appear, judging from his expression.

However, that made sense, because in his eyes, she was Bryson's fiancée. It was understandable that Bryson's men would protect her.

Audrey felt warm in her heart.

Surprisingly, Bryson actually sent someone to protect her.

Thought of that, Audrey walked towards Tyson.

Tyson's full attention was paid to observe the surroundings. When he saw Audrey walking in front of him, he was shocked.

"Ms. Audrey, can I help you?" Tyson looked at Audrey in surprise and asked.

Audrey said with a smile, "My phone is broken and hasn't been repaired yet. Can I borrow your phone to call your boss?"
