A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 111

Audrey had made an appointment with Kylee last night. Seeing that it's her day off on the weekend, she promised Kylee that they would go out for relaxing. So, they both had changed into comfortable clothes and went out together after breakfast.

Kylee and Audrey both wore light blue tracksuits, looking like a real pair of grandmother and grandchild.

They walked arm in arm towards the car.

They discovered that someone was sitting in the passenger seat as they got in the car. It was Bryson, who should have left for work hours ago.

Kylee and Audrey said in unison at the sight of Bryson, "Didn't you go to the company already?"

Bryson's face darkened at the unmasked distaste on their faces.

It seemed that he's not wanted.

He turned to look at the two important women in his life.

"There's nothing urgent today, so I decided to come with you."

Kylee voiced her displeasure loudly, "What happens to your precious work? Does it make itself scarce when it knows I'm going out with Elliana?"

...

Both Bryson and Audrey were stunned by her complaints.

Judging from Kylee's bad attitude toward Bryson, Audrey wondered if Bryson was adopted.

Although Kylee frowned upon Bryson's intrusion on their outing, her mood improved gradually with the companion of her grandchildren.

Didn't the companion of their families is one craved the most in their late years?

They headed to a resort where they could camp and barbecue.

A pond not far from the barbecue area was open to fishing, and consumers were welcome to grill their catch back in the barbecue area.

Naturally, Kylee, Audrey, and Bryson all went fishing enthusiastically once they arrived.

Kylee and Audrey had never fished before. So, they were at a loss after renting the fishing equipment from the pond keeper. The two of them sat by the pond idly.

Bryson came over and taught them how to toss the fishing line and how to place the bait on the hook hand by hand.

After taking care of Kylee, he started his lesson with Audrey.

Audrey caught on immediately.

As Audrey tossed the fishing line out, Kylee sneered at her grandson.

"Now I know why you never have the time, too busy fishing apparently!"

Bryson paused in his walk back to his seat.

Since when knowing how to fish was a sin?

Audrey again thought of her previous suspicion about their relation.

The way Kylee treated Bryson as a grandchild was so bad that Audrey felt sympathy for him.

The rule was no sudden sound during fishing.

The fish in this pond, trained by all the consumers, were known for their cunning and hard to catch.

One small sound above the water would easily chase them away, bait or no bait.

It didn't take Audrey long to have a fish bit the hook.

Bryson's phone rang as the fish was about to bite, the fish swiftly flapped away.

Seeing this, Kylee glared at her grandson.

Bryson glanced at the screen and hit ignore.

Not long after, Kylee also had a fish circling the bait and waiting for its chances.

Kylee's eyes glittered with greed as she stared at the fish.

This fish was big enough for half of their dinner.

Kylee stared at the fish intensely, 'Bite! Bite!' she prayed silently.

Talked about bad timing. Bryson's phone rang again as the fish almost bit the hook.

The big fish fled like Audrey's did, disappearing without a trace.

Byron's repeated mistakes enraged Kylee greatly. She threw the pole to the ground violently and started ranting.

"Are you here to fish or work? Why does your phone keep ringing? Bryson, if you're busy, you can go back to work, don't waste your time here. Every time your phone rings, the fish will be scared away. Do you know how big my fish is?" Kylee signed exaggeratedly.

Bryson was dumbfounded.

He turned his phone on silent at his grandma's scolding.

Audrey watched them without a word.

Her sympathy for Bryson grew deeper.

After making sure that Bryson's phone wouldn't ring again, Kylee sat down and continued fishing.

After a while, another fish approached Kylee's hook, yet a phone rang before it could get close.

"Bryson, didn't I tell you to get back to work? Why are you still...?" Kylee rose furiously.

Audrey took out her phone and looked at Kylee sheepishly, "Grandma, it's me."

Bryson was hurt as Kylee pointed the finger at him without thinking.

Kylee smiled and said, "I see. Hurry and take it in case you miss someone important." Her anger was all forgotten.

"Alright."

Bryson was speechless.

The difference in her attitude terrified him.

It's a customer calling. Audrey turned her phone on silent too after answering the customer's two simple questions.

They fell into silence after that.

Kylee was extremely excited as a fish bit Bryson's hook. She pointed at Bryson's hook and shouted, "Idiot, hurry up and pull. Don't let the fish escape."

Ignoring her comment, Bryson did what he was told without complaint.

Bryson raised the fishing rod and a big fish emerged from the water. He skillfully withdrew the fishing line and dropped the fish into a bucket at his feet.

Kylee looked at the big fish in the bucket and happily patted Bryson on the shoulder. "Good job, Bryson. Remember what I said earlier, forget about work, you are always welcome to fish with us."

Bryson, who remembered being told to get back to work, said nothing.

It seemed that Bryson's fish had brought them luck. Audrey and Kylee both caught a big fish in turn.

Arms full of fish, the three of them returned the equipment to the keeper. They asked the keeper to process the fish, so they could take it to the barbecue area.

The fish pond keeper looked at the big fish the three of them had caught and thought they were undercharged.

They took the processed fish to the barbecue area.

Audrey went to the barbecue area. On her way to meet up with Bryson and Kylee, she bumped into someone.

It was Julian. He had come to barbecue with his friends.
