A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 180

Audrey smiled and watched Alma get up and leave.

When Alma disappeared from the door, Audrey let out a sigh of relief and leaned back on the sofa.

At present, Alma calmed down. In a short period, Alma would no longer come to the Cordova Mansion to talk nonsense.

Kylee took the medicine and returned to the first floor.

"Elliana, where is Miss Alma?"

"Her family called her and worried about her safety. She has returned and asked me to tell you!" Audrey lied with a straight face.

"Is that so?"

"Grandma, it's getting late. You should rest. Leave the rest to me."

Kylee covered her mouth and yawned.

"Okay, then I will go upstairs."

Looking at Kylee, Audrey suddenly thought of something, so she said.

"Grandma..."

Kylee turned around. "What's wrong?"

Audrey choked for a few seconds before saying, "Grandma, I want to ask you something."

Kylee smiled at Audrey and held her hand.

"Elliana, do you have something on your mind? Tell me."

Audrey looked at Kylee's loving face, but her heart was throbbing with pain.

Kylee treated her like her own granddaughter, but ... she had been lying to Kylee. Now that she was with Bryson, she felt that she had lied to Kylee. Thus, she felt very uneasy.

"Grandma, I want to ask you whether you will be angry if I lied to you."

Kylee held Audrey's hand and smiled. "Of course not. You are my baby girl. No matter what you do, I will not be angry."

Audrey felt a dull pain in her chest.

"Grandma, what if it is a serious matter? Will you still forgive me?"

"Silly child!" Kylee looked at Audrey reproachfully. "Why are you saying such words? Of course, I will forgive you."

Audrey bit her lower lip. "If I'm not your granddaughter, will you still love me?"

Audrey stared at Kylee's face. She was nervous and waited for Kylee to answer.

Kylee looked into Audrey's serious eyes and sighed.

"Yes, I will!" Kylee looked at Audrey lovingly. She thought that Audrey was only acting like a spoiled child and did not think too much about it.

"Really?"

"Of course. Why would I lie to you? Even if you are not my granddaughter, I will still love you very much."

Audrey felt a little relieved, and she hugged Kylee's waist tightly.

"Thank you, Grandma!" With that, Audrey tickled on Old Grandma's waist.

Kylee felt itchy and quickly removed Audrey's hand.

Audrey narrowed her eyes and stared at Kylee. "Grandma, I told you before. You can eat too much during your meal. You are not allowed to eat dessert or meat at other times. Do you remember?"

When she touched Kylee's waist, she felt that Kylee had gained some weight.

Kylee immediately shrank her neck in guilt. She quickly looked around and looked in the direction of the stairs.

As she walked towards the stairs, she rubbed her eyes. "Why am I suddenly so sleepy? I'll go upstairs to rest first. It's getting late. Elliana, you should go rest too. Don't sleep too late!"

Audrey was lost for words.

Audrey looked at Kylee's back at a loss.

It was easy for the elderly to have different health issues when they were over sixty years old. Although Kylee was not fat, her blood fat was relatively high. If she ate too much meat and dessert, it would cause her blood fat to be higher.

It seemed that from tomorrow on, Audrey must call Kylee often to urge her to control the meal.

She followed Kylee upstairs. Before she reached the stairs, she saw a person standing at the corner of the stairs, looking down at her.

Audrey paused for a moment before walking upstairs.

"Aren't you busy?"

"I'm done."

Bryson reached out and grabbed Audrey's hand. He wanted to pull her into his arms, but Audrey reacted quickly and pushed him away. Her eyes stared warily at the surroundings.

Bryson smiled and pulled her back into his embrace.

"Don't worry, no one will see."

Audrey still did not let her guard down. She nestled in Bryson's arms but looked around and listened to everything.

Audrey felt much more at ease in Bryson's embrace.

"If Grandmother knows that I'm not her biological granddaughter, will she..."

Bryson interrupted her in time, "I will take care of everything. I forced you to be with me. If Grandma gets angry, you can blame me for everything."

"I'm not afraid of taking responsibility. I'm just afraid that Grandma will be disappointed in me. Knowing that I lied to her, she will be very sad."

Bryson pinched her face comfortingly.

"In the beginning, you only agreed to my request for her health. You did nothing wrong. It was my fault!" Bryson kissed her forehead. "Leave everything to me!"

"OK."

"Are you feeling better?"

Audrey smiled. "Yes, I don't feel bad anymore. By the way, how are the things I asked you to investigate last time?"

Bryson frowned. "You mean the owner of that jade pendant?"

"Yes!"

"I've always wanted to ask what the relationship between you and the owner of that jade pendant is." Bryson looked at Audrey with a serious expression as if he was telling her that he was not jealous.

Audrey looked at her, amused. She couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.

She put her two fingers together. "Do you know you're this petty?"

"I admit that I am very narrow-minded, but you said before that man is someone very important to you!"

Audrey rolled her eyes.

"Mr. Bryson, you have always been at a high status in the hearts of others. Do your subordinates and your fans know that you are so narrow-minded?"

Bryson's face sank. He hugged her even tighter. A dangerous breath blew on her face. He said seriously, "Audrey!"

Audrey begged for mercy in pain.

"Alright, I won't speak ill of you anymore. I'll tell you the story." Audrey's expression became a little grave. "This jade pendant was a whole. It was my mother's dowry. Later, it fell into two halves. My mother made the two pieces of jade into two pendants. One for me, and one for my younger brother."

Bryson stared at Audrey with a strange expression.

"So, the owner of the other jade pendant is your younger brother, right?"

"Yes!"

Bryson was lost for words.

Had he been jealous of his brother-in-law?
