A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 79

Audrey went to the court to deal with the follow-up matters of the cases. When she walked out of the court, it was only nine o'clock. She told the outcome of the trial to Luis and then made a call to Bryson.

Bryson had just finished his work.

When Audrey was waiting for him outside the courthouse, a woman passed her.

And there was a person following behind.

"No matter what, my brother should be bailed today." She stated with a gloomy look.

Audrey gave her a sidelong glance.

This woman was dressed in a long dusty pink dress with her long hair drooping her waist. Judging from her figure, she should be a graceful beauty.

Audrey did not think too much and just walked forward.

Not long after, Bryson's car arrived.

After getting on the car, Audrey introduced Bryson the scenic spots of the Pine City.

Audrey added, "I have learned about all of them. Pine City is famous for its gardens, and the Amber Garden ranks the first. If you want to pay a visit to gardens, I think the Amber Garden is a good choice."

Bryson nodded, "Then let's go to the Amber Garden."

The two of them got out of the car at the entrance of the Amber Garden. It was a morning of a weekday, so there were not many people.

This garden required admission by ticket. As a president of a group, Bryson would certainly not go to buy the tickets. Nor would Audrey ask him to.

Audrey volunteered to buy tickets and then entered the garden with Bryson.

The Amber Garden was built in the Qing Dynasty. But after renovation, it looked like a newly built one. There were a lot of guideposts to show the direction to visitors.

According to her good memory, Audrey told Bryson some stories about the garden. However, most of the time, Bryson's gaze lingered on her face instead of the beautiful scenery.

Halfway, Audrey was about to go to the bathroom.

And Bryson stood in a pavilion not far away, waiting for her.

When she came out, she was about to go find him.

However, she suddenly saw two sneaky figures out of the corner of her eyes.

One of them looked familiar.

That was Luka, Luis' assistant.

Why was he here?

And the other one had carried a box with him.

It hit Audrey.

When she went to the Pine Pharmaceutical Company, an assistant happened to knock over a file. And she had seen that it read a suspicious transaction.

The date of that was exactly today! And the address was written in its abbreviation—AG.

Before she came to the Amber Garden, she didn't understand what AG meant. But now it hit her now this was exactly the abbreviation of the Amber Garden!

What was Luka going to trade?

Curious, she quietly followed behind them.

Not long after, the two of them arrived at a covert corner.

Audrey quietly hid behind a pine tree, observing them.

After a while, several people came over as Luka appeared to be delighted.

The person opposite Luka greeted him with a smile.

"Mr. Luka, have you brought the things we want?"

Luka smiled, "Of course I did. What about you?"

The person opposite him opened the box.

From Audrey's perspective, she could see that the box was filled with cash.

The moment Luka saw it, his eyes lit up. His smile widened as greed crossed his face.

"Mr. Luka, since we have collaborated so many times, you should trust me."

Luka gave his man a tip to check it. He went excited after verifying the cash. Then, he opened his box.

Audrey squinted and stared at it.

It was filled with small bags. And all of the bags had white powder in them.

Audrey immediately recognized what it was as a veteran lawyer.

Luka was actually dealing that...

Audrey secretly recorded it with her phone.

However, just as she was shooting, her phone rang.

She didn't return after a long while and Bryson was worried about her. So, he just called her.

Audrey hurried to hang up.

However, it was too late. She was discovered.

Seeing them approaching, Audrey quickly ran away.

The garden was large, and it was like a maze. Audrey ran like a headless fly. She saw an alley and just ran over. But she soon saw two men standing in the immediate vicinity. They seemed to be waiting for her!

She broke out in a cold sweat and retreated. But just as she turned around, a few more people surrounded her.

Moreover, each of them was holding a pistol, staring at Audrey fiercely.

Audrey had no way to escape.

She squinted and fixed her eyes on them.

They didn't look that strong. So, it wasn't that difficult to escape. The trouble was that they had weapons.

One of them sneered.

"Run. Just run."

At this moment, Luka walked over. He was surprised to see Audrey.

"Audrey, it's actually you."

The person who traded with Luka was a bald man. He shot a cold glance at Luka and asked, "What? Do you know her?"

"She is the lawyer in charge of my boss and Kadin's case."

A trace of utmost malice flashed across Luis's eyes.

If the fact that he produced drugs with the company's equipment was exposed, he would be finished.

If she were a stranger and hadn't known him, he might just have threaten her and let her go. But Audrey knew who he was. He must kill her.

The bald man clicked his tongue, "So she's a lawyer. What a pity! I wouldn't want to kill such a beauty."

Luka spat, "No. We must kill her. If we don't, she will expose our crime and I'll be done!"

With that, Luka snatched the bald man's pistol and aimed it at Audrey.

The moment Luka pulled the trigger, Audrey dodged. Fortunately, she acted promptly. Besides, Luka was not good at shooting. He missed the shot and the bullet lodged into the trunk.

With a muffler, Luka's shooting didn't draw any attention.

But Luka was totally enraged. He fired several shots in succession, driving Audrey to a corner.

Now Audrey had nowhere to dodge.

"Go to hell!" Luka aimed at Audrey's heart with excitement.
