A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 103

The next morning, Audrey got up with dark circles under her eyes. Then she hurried to the office to get the documents.

Sitting in the car, she took out a small mirror and looked at her eyes. Audrey couldn't help but complain about Bryson in her heart. If he hadn't taken her to watch a movie last night, she wouldn't have gone to court with dark circles.

She hurried back to the law firm to get the documents and went to the Court of Peace City.

At the entrance of the courthouse, her client had arrived.

She walked into the courthouse with her client and sat down.

The client looked at Audrey nervously, "Audrey, is today's trial OK?"

Audrey smiled and said, "No problem. Don't worry."

With that, Audrey took out the documents in her hand.

Then she discovered that two pages were missing. Those two pages were completely obscure and difficult to remember. How could those two pages suddenly disappear?

She looked through the documents carefully.

Not only the two pages but even one of the pieces of evidence was missing.

Yesterday, when she got off work, she checked all the documents and evidence and locked them. This morning, when she went to the company to get the documents, no one had ever touched the documents. How could things be missing for no reason?

However, she never needed those things in court.

...

Square Law Firm...

Throughout the morning, Liana was absent-minded. She glanced at Audrey's seat from time to time.

A few days ago, she carefully studied Audrey's routine. She knew that Audrey had placed the documents for today's trial at the top of the drawer. She especially went to the security room to copy the key to Audrey's drawer.

When she returned to her office last evening, she used the key to open Audrey's drawer and took away Audrey's important evidence.

If there was no evidence, would Audrey still win the case?

As long as Audrey lost the lawsuit, her legend of being undefeated in the law firm would be broken. Could she still be proud of herself in the future?

However, this was the first time Liana had done such a thing, so it was inevitable that she would feel guilty in her heart.

There was no news of Audrey's appearance in court. I wonder what the outcome of the trial was. Did Audrey lose the case?

Just as she was thinking, Susan came to the side of Liana.

"Ms. Liana, Mr. Steele is looking for you."

Liana came to her senses.

"Alright!"

Liana went to Freddy's office.

Freddy looked for Liana because she had mistaken the client's name when dealing with the documents. After Freddy scolded Liana for a while, she walked out of Freddy's office exhausted.

As soon as Liana arrived at the office area, she saw Audrey walking in from outside the law firm.

The moment when Audrey showed up, Liana's eyes narrowed.

Audrey also saw Liana. However, after a glance, she walked straight to her seat and sat down.

The other lawyers were also busy and did not notice Audrey, so no one asked about the results of Audrey's trial.

However, every time Audrey won a lawsuit in the past, she would immediately call Freddy to report. Today, Audrey did not call Freddy. Otherwise, when Liana was in Freddy's office, Freddy would have taken Audrey as an example.

Thinking of this, Liana confirmed that Audrey must have lost the lawsuit.

That was why Audrey kept such a low profile today.

She had taken some important part of Audrey's trial materials away. Audrey couldn't win the trial.

The more Liana thought about it, the more excited she became, and the anger she felt when she was scolded earlier disappeared.

As long as Audrey lost the lawsuit, Liana would be happy.

Not long after, Freddy walked out of his office.

Seeing Freddy walk out, Liana immediately called out to him.

"Mr. Steele!"

Freddy turned around, his mood not looking very good, "What is it?"

Freddy's mood didn't look good, which made Liana surer that Audrey lost her lawsuit. The client must have called Freddy to complain.

"Mr. Steele, Audrey has just returned to the law firm after her trial. I wonder what the outcome of her trial was. Did she win ... or did she lose?" Liana smiled, "Let me guess, she must have won, right?"

Hearing Liana's words, Freddy suddenly remembered something and looked at Audrey.

"Audrey, didn't you go to court today? Why are you back so quickly? Since the trial is over, why didn't you call me?"

"I'm sorry. I forgot!" Audrey replied indifferently.

The other lawyers in the office had sensed a hint of gossip.

"Audrey suddenly didn't call Mr. Steele. Could it be that she lost the lawsuit?"

"I think that's very likely."

"When did Audrey come back? I don't know at all."

"She just lost a lawsuit. Do you want her to announce it in public?"

Hearing the lawyers' discussions, Freddy put on a dark face.

"Audrey, did you lose the lawsuit?"

Audrey smiled as she looked at Liana, and her bright eyes flashed with coldness. "Ms. Liana, do you want me to lose or win?"

Liana's heart skipped a beat.

What did Audrey mean by asking this?

Did Audrey suspect Liana?

Even if Audrey suspected her, Audrey would have no evidence.

The smile on Liana's face froze.

"You are a lawyer of Square Law Firm. You represent our firm. Of course, I hope you win." Liana said against her will.

"Is that so? Do you really want me to win, Ms. Liana?"

Pastoral frowned.

Audrey clearly had something to say but she didn't say it.

This could mean that she lost the lawsuit, but she didn't want to say it.

Liana sneered in her heart as she looked at Audrey with a concerned expression, "Audrey, please satisfy everyone's curiosity. Did you lose or win?"

The other lawyers also looked at Audrey with curiosity on their faces.

"That's right, Audrey. Just tell me, did you win or lose?"

Pastoral was extremely happy in her heart.

Liana often lost lawsuits, but Audrey had always been winning. If Audrey suddenly lost the lawsuit, things would be different.

Audrey looked coldly at Liana.

She gently opened her mouth and said word by word, "Fortunately, I didn't disappoint you, Ms. Liana. I won today's trial!"

What? Did she win?

The moment Audrey finished her sentence, Liana couldn't help but say.

"It's impossible!"
