A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 80

Since Audrey had been driven into a corner, Luka's fellows all let their guard down and looked on. They didn't intend to lend a hand at all.

They had thought that Audrey would surely die.

The bald man turned his head away and appeared to be sorry. He didn't have the heart to see a beauty die.

However, the next second, he heard an exclamation from one of his men. He subconsciously looked over and saw Audrey had somehow bounded behind Luka and snatched the pistol.

She stood behind Luka, one hand wrap his neck and the other hold the pistol to aim at the bold man.

The bald man squinted.

He stared at Audrey with a gloomy expression.

"Women don't go with weapons. Be a good girl and put it down."

Audrey curled her lips, "Whether I go with weapons is not up to you."

The bald man turned to his man who stood behind Audrey. He raised his eyebrow and tipped him a wink.

That man got the hint and immediately turned to Audrey. But Audrey just swung her arm and pulled the trigger. She didn't even look back, but a hole had appeared near that man's foot. He was so scared that he didn't dare to move anymore.

Then, Audrey aimed at the bald man again.

A trace of surprise flashed in the bald man's eyes as he narrowed his eyes.

He didn't expect Audrey to be that agile. And she shot so well.

"Woman, if you join us, we can give you 10% of our profits. How about it?" He obviously appreciated her.

"I don't want to take part in your affairs. I just want to leave."

The bald man shot a sinister glance at her.

"No way! Everyone who dared to aim at me with a pistol had died. And you are no exception."

Audrey frowned and tightened her grip on Luka's neck, "Don't move, or I'll kill him."

The bald man sneered, "He's just one of our collaborators. His life means nothing to me. Kill him if you want!"

All his men aimed at Audrey.

Audrey was lost for words.

At this moment, a commotion came. More than ten armed policemen appeared and surrounded them.

It came as a shock that they were actually surrounded by so many policemen.

The police captain shouted, "Don't move. You are suspected of dealing. Now, you are all under arrest. And you are at your own risk!"

The bald man and his fellows remained motionless, frightened.

Audrey turned around and saw a tall and sturdy figure standing beside the police captain. Now he was looking at her with a dark face.

Audrey's heart skipped a beat.

She didn't tell Bryson before she tailed after Luka. He must be mad at her.

Soon, the bald man and his fellows, including Luka, were handcuffed, and the drugs and cash were confiscated.

Audrey shuffled to Bryson.

Seeing Bryson's pitch-black face, Audrey was so guilty that she didn't dare to meet his gaze. She just stood aside quietly.

"Ms. Audrey, are you okay?" The police captain asked with concern.

Audrey waved her hand, "Yes, yes, I'm okay."

The police captain took a glance at Bryson, "That will be nice. Mr. Bryson was worried about you. And please call Mr. Shane and tell him you are safe now."

"Alright, thank you."

The police captain looked at Audrey gratefully. "You don't need to thank me. It's me who should thank you. If it weren't for you, we would still have no way to catch them. Recently, drugs were frequently dealt in Pine City, but we couldn't find the dealers. Thanks to you, we catch them."

"This is what I should do." Audrey didn't think herself deserve it.

However, she felt Bryson's face darkened more as she said.

The police captain took all the criminals away.

When they left, only Bryson and Audrey were left. Audrey subconsciously followed them and was about to leave.

Just as she took one step, Bryson's cold voice came.

"Where are you going?"

Audrey froze, not daring to move.

The chilly wind blew, and all her hair stood on end.

Audrey didn't get scared even when facing those evil criminals. But now, she was afraid.

Audrey forced a smile and turned around.

"Well, I just want to see if I can lend them a hand."

"Lend them a hand? So, that's why you sent yourself to their muzzle?"

Audrey was lost for words.

This time, she could hardly force a smile.

Bryson was telling the truth.

She was just curious about what Luka was doing, but she actually placed herself on the verge of death.

If Bryson hadn't have arrived in time, she might have been killed. Imagine what if she was shot into a sieve. Her heart now still fluttered with fear.

Audrey smiled and changed the topic, "Well, how did you find the police in such a short time?"

"Mr. Shane happened to call me. He said there was a police station nearby and he called the director."

"So, it's Mr. Shane ... I forgot to call him."

Audrey took out her phone and made a call.

"Hello, Mr. Shane. This is Audrey."

"Audrey, you should be safe, right? You are making the call."

"Yes, thank you, Mr. Shane."

"You don't have to thank me. Alas ... you know, when I called Bryson, he was actually angry at me since he couldn't find you. Now that you are safe, I'll be relieved."

Audrey was surprised.

She stole a glance at Bryson and quickly withdrew her gaze.

"Anyway, thank you, Mr. Shane."

After hanging up, Audrey still didn't dare to meet Bryson's gaze.

It was almost noon. Audrey walked forward and pretended to be relaxed as she talked to Bryson, who stood behind her.

"It's almost lunchtime. Let's go out. I'm afraid we'll have to queue up for lunch if we meet the crush time."

Audrey wanted to ease the tension.

Unexpectedly, her wrist was grasped only after she took only a few steps forward. With a forceful pull, she was pulled into an embrace.

She cried out in alarm. But just as she looked up and wanted to say something, a handsome face approached. And then, her lips were sealed.
