A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 134

After getting on the car, Bryson leaned back in his chair exhaustively and napped.

Seeing this, Audrey felt a little distressed.

Bryson was already tired of managing such a big company as the Cordova Group. And not to mention that he had to handle all the receptions. Moreover, the guests of such high-end receptions were mostly the cooperators with the Cordova Group.

Even though Bryson looked pretty chill, there were many people who came to chat with him.

Apart from that, many young ladies coveted Bryson and came to toast, trying to become his girlfriend.

Therefore, it made sense that Bryson did not like such events.

Just as Audrey was thinking, the car started. Then, Bryson suddenly tilted his head and rested on Audrey's thigh.

Audrey was speechless.

She stiffened.

She looked down at his tightly closed eyes and frowned.

He couldn't fall asleep in such a short time, could he?

"Mr. Bryson, if you want to rest, wait until you get back..."

"I have a headache!" Bryson muttered in a low voice, "Massage for me!"

Audrey was lost for words.

She was not his masseuse!

However, Bryson looked strained and weary, so she could not push his head away. She couldn't help but rub his temples with the proper strength.

Bryson's wrinkled eyebrows gradually relaxed under Audrey's fingers.

After massaging his temples, Audrey continued with the acupoints between his head and neck.

When she touched Bryson's neck, Audrey frowned and said, "You lower your head at work for so long that your neck is a little stiff. Next time remember to raise your head and turn around your neck from time to time."

Bryson enjoyed it lazily. He asked without opening his eyes, "You are professional. Have you learned it before?"

"Yes, when my grandmother was still alive, she often had headaches after reading. So, I learned from a masseuse for a period of time. However, by the time I learned it, my grandmother..."

She wanted to make her grandmother feel better, but before she could, her grandmother left her forever.

Bryson suddenly opened his eyes and saw the sadness in Audrey's eyes.

Bryson brushed his fingers against Audrey's cheek, his rough thumb stroking her cheek lovingly.

"Even if your grandmother has gone to heaven, she will be happy to know your filial piety."

Audrey broke into a smile and she nodded slightly.

Bryson felt distressed as he looked at this sorrowful girl. He threw his arm around her neck, pulled her head down, and kissed her softly.

But it was only a gentle touch on the lips.

"I'll always be there for you," Bryson whispered.

Audrey was stunned.

That was too much. No one could refuse Bryson when he became gentle like this. Audrey felt that her heart was about to jump out of her throat.

She calmed down and covered Bryson's eyes, "Don't look at me again, otherwise, I'll stop my massage."

Bryson smiled, "Alright, then I won't look."

He closed his eyes as he was told.

Audrey sighed and continued to massage Bryson's temples.

Bryson rested on Audrey's lap and she massaged him to relieve his fatigue. It would be great if time could stand still.

...

Finally, the car stopped in front of the Cordova Mansion.

When Audrey and Bryson got out of the car, Kylee in a coat walked over to them with a worried look and she grabbed Audrey's hand.

"You two are finally back."

Audrey said with a smile, "Grandma, you know that we went to the reception tonight. And you told us to come back after we finished."

"I did tell you to come back after it's over, but I didn't expect you guys to be so late to come home!"

Audrey didn't speak.

Audrey held Kylee's arm and comforted her, "Alright, Grandma, we're fine. Don't worry. It's cold outside at night, let's walk inside."

"Alright!" Kylee finally broke into a smile.

Back in the villa, they sat in the living room, and the servant brought three cups of tea.

When they just sat down, Kylee asked eagerly, "I called Miss Alma and asked about you. I didn't know why she stammered when she answered me. She said you would tell me what happened when you came back. I was so anxious. Now you are back. So, tell me, how about the reception? Did you find someone you like today?"

Audrey didn't know how to respond to her.

She didn't know that Kylee had called Alma. It seemed Alma hadn't recovered from the shock on the reception.

No wonder she stammered on the phone.

Kylee looked at Bryson and Audrey, but neither of them answered her words.

A few seconds later, Kylee's face gradually darkened.

"So, you went to the reception tonight and got nothing back?"

Audrey lightly coughed and explained to Kylee, "Grandma, fate is something you can't ask for. Besides, look how pretty your granddaughter is. Do you think that I won't be able to find a husband?"

Kylee said proudly, "That's right, my granddaughter is very pretty. Of course..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Kylee realized that Audrey was changing the subject. Her face became stern.

"Don't try to pass it off."

"Grandma, I'm not passing it off. It's because the guests tonight weren't that good. You don't want your beautiful granddaughter to marry anyone of them, right?"

Kylee's face lightened up a little and she said, "I thought the girl from the Duran family can hold a better reception. No hurry, we can wait."

"Alright."

Audrey was relieved that this talk was finally over.

Then Kylee turned to look at Bryson.

"What about you? I've heard that half of the beauties in Peace City have attended the reception. Don't you have anyone you like?"

"Yes!"

Kylee's eyes lit up.

"Really?"

Bryson said calmly, "But she is married!"

Kylee was speechless.

And so was Audrey.
