A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 97

After Ean announced that Audrey was the consultant lawyer of the Cordova Group in the conference room, people left. Audrey also followed Bryson back to the president's office upstairs.

She needed to get her briefcase left in Bryson's office.

On the way back, Audrey relaxed a little.

After all, she became the consultant lawyer for the Cordova Group, not because Bryson did her a favor, but because she was capable. Everyone saw her get recognized and earn this position.

Bryson took a few steps towards the office door, opened the door and walked in. Then, he moved sideways and waited for Audrey to enter.

He stared at her, with his black and unfathomable eyes.

She turned vigilant at once. He was like a ferocious beast in front of her, and the office was like hell, scaring her. She stopped and did not take another step forward.

However, her briefcase was inside and in it was her wallet. If she didn't go in, she wouldn't have enough money to take a taxi.

She didn't know if she should go in or not.

Standing outside the door, she hesitated.

Unfortunately, Audrey's work phone kept vibrating on the coffee table inside.

Audrey gritted her teeth, walked straight in, and picked up her phone.

She was overjoyed when she saw her company's telephone number.

"Yes, would you like me to go back to the company?" Audrey asked.

In fact, Audrey had a plan. No matter what the people from the company said, she would pretend that she was needed there. She would act along the way.

Blake Cohen, a receptionist at Audrey's company, sounded surprised. "Audrey, how did you know?"

Audrey said, "..."

Audrey looked slightly awkward. She didn't expect that she guessed right.

"What's wrong? What happened in the company?"

Blake said, "Two clients suddenly came to the company. They want to see you. Mr. Steele said that you should have signed the contract by now. So, he told me to call you and ask you to come over."

"Alright, I'm done here. I'll be right back."

After hanging up, Audrey turned around to say goodbye to Bryson.

"Mr. Bryson, my company just..."

Before Audrey could finish her sentence, his face leaned over. Bryson already lowered his head and kissed her.

Only when she tried to push him away did he stop.

"Don't do this again!" Bryson's voice was hoarse as he whispered his warning. "Did you hear that?"

Afraid that Bryson would kiss her again, she could only nod with force in his arms.

Finally, Bryson opened his arms slowly.

"Sorry about giving myself free rein just now!"

Audrey swallowed her dissatisfaction with the unfair kiss.

So, was the kiss just a mistake? However, she would not foolishly ask Bryson if it was a mistake.

"Well, there's work in my company. Got to go."

With that, Audrey picked up the briefcase on the sofa, and turned to open the door.

Just as her hand reached the handle, his hand covered the back of her hand and also held the handle. She drew back her hand as if it was burned.

He pulled the handle calmly.

"Take care."

"I see. Thank you, Mr. Bryson!"

Audrey held onto her chest and her heart was beating fast. She rushed out like crazy, as if there was flame chasing her.

Standing outside the door, Melvin watched Audrey dashing out, and a meaningful smile crossed his face.

He found her lips swollen, clothes messy, and affection in her eyes. It was obvious that she was kissed by someone. Of course, it could only be his boss.

At this moment, Bryson stared at Audrey as she was leaving. There was so much tenderness in his eyes.

When Bryson looked away and noticed Melvin, the tenderness was replaced by coldness, driving away Melvin's curiosity.

"Mr. Bryson, here is a document for you."

"Come in!"

...

Square Law Firm.

After leaving the Cordova Group, Audrey hurried back to Square Law Firm.

She went through the door of the firm.

"Blake!"

Seeing Audrey, Blake smiled at her.

"Audrey, you're back."

"You called me and said that there was a client looking for me, right?"

Blake said, "Yes, the client named you as the barrister. The client is in the reception room now."

"I'll go there now." Audrey placed a box of pastries on the table. "Oh right, yesterday you said that you wanted some almond crisp from Lucky Flaky. It's on my way back here, so I bought a box for you."

Blake took over it with great joy.

She looked to the side alertly, leaned forward and whispered, "By the way, Audrey, the client here is a little strange. You'd better watch out."

"Alright, thank you."

Audrey walked straight into the reception room.

When Audrey arrived outside the glass wall of the room, she saw two people sitting inside. They were whispering something. Suddenly, one of them saw Audrey and gestured to the other. The other also turned to look at her. Then they exchanged glances.

Audrey detected a flicker of shrewdness from their gazes.

Audrey raised her eyebrows slightly.

If she wasn't mistaken, one of them was a loyal partner of the Four Seasons Group.

These two people were sly.

Audrey curled her lips and walked to the door of the room. She opened it and walked in.

"I'm sorry, but I was busy this morning, so I came back a little late. Sorry to keep you two waiting for a long time."

Eden smiled and replied, "It doesn't matter. We came here out of the blue and didn't make an appointment with you in advance."

Audrey sat opposite them.

"Let me introduce myself. I'm a lawyer from Square Law Firm. You can call me Audrey or Ms. Audrey."
