A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 187

The call was disconnected, but Audrey still didn't dare to open her mouth, or she would get into trouble.

She herself was wronged. Simon was the one who came to her, and she did not ask him over.

After a while, the two still did not speak.

Audrey stared at the building where the law firm was located. As soon as the car stopped, she quickly unbuckled her seat belt and left.

Bryson coldly broke the silence, "Make your weekend available."

"Oh!"

"What? You are unwilling?"

"Of course not." Audrey said with a smile, "I can't be too happy to go out with you."

Bryson glanced at her with a forced smile.

However, he did not expose her.

"Let's go and meet your brother!"

Audrey did not react for a moment and frowned. "What did you just say?"

Bryson took out a photo and handed it to Audrey.

Audrey took the photo. When she saw it, her pupils suddenly contracted. She stared at the pendant on the photo that was exactly the same as the one on her neck.

It was her brother's pendant.

Audrey looked at Bryson excitedly.

"My brother has been found, hasn't he?"

Bryson nodded. "The day after tomorrow is the weekend. Get ready, I will take you to see him!"

Audrey grabbed Bryson's arm. "I can't wait. I want to go tomorrow. No, today, now!"

Knowing that her brother was still alive, she couldn't wait. She had to see him now.

Bryson reached out a hand to grab Audrey's.

"Audrey, I know how you feel. However, there is a bit of a problem at the moment. He is temporarily in other places and has not returned to Shore City yet. He will be back in two days."

Audrey frowned.

"What? He will be back in two days?"

Bryson nodded. "Yes, that's why I decided to bring you to him the day after tomorrow."

Audrey couldn't hide the disappointment on her face.

"Alright, I'll see him then."

Bryson pinched her palm.

"You've endured it for the past twenty years, make it for another two days."

Audrey nodded and exhaled. "That's right! I've endured it for twenty years. How can I not survive just two days?"

In the end, Audrey pecked Bryson's right cheek and hugged his right arm to lean against it.

"Bryson, thank you very much. If it wasn't for you, I might... I don't know when I would be able to find him."

Audrey's soft body pressed against Bryson's arm. Bryson rubbed her head and said with a hoarse voice.

"Audrey, but I'm driving now. If this continues, before we meet your brother, we will die together. If you have any desires, we have to go to a hotel. Although I said that I want to wait until we get married, but if you want, I can promise you now!" Bryson said.

Audrey quickly bounced back to her seat. Her cheeks were burning.

...

That afternoon, because the Munn Group was dissatisfied with the verdict, they proposed to appeal.

However, after the court verified the evidence, they rejected such a request.

The Munn Group...

Toby paced back and forth in the president's office while Wendy sat on the sofa with her hands crossed, waiting anxiously.

After a while, Toby's landline rang, and he immediately picked up the phone.

"Hello? How is it?"

After Toby finished asking, he heard an answer. In an instant, Toby's expression changed greatly, and he became furious. "What did you just say? Say that again!"

"President, we just came out of the court. The court said that the reason for our appeal was not sufficient and there was no solid evidence. So, they rejected it!"

"You trash!"

After cursing, Toby hung up.

After that, Wendy's heart was in her mouth. She looked at Toby cautiously and asked.

"Dad, what did they say?"

Toby glanced coldly at Wendy. This glance made Wendy's heart skip a beat.

Toby did not answer Wendy but made a call.

After the call connected, Toby immediately smiled and asked, "Hello, are you Mr. Zack Conrad? I am Toby of Munn Group. We met last month at the golf course in the north. Do you remember?"

"Oh, so it's Mr. Toby. Why did you call me?"

"Mr. Zack. I recently obtained a new jade carving. I would like to ask you to appraise it. Do you have time?"

Zack was the judge of the court in Peace City. Wendy knew him. She heard that he liked antiques.

The jade carving was something that Toby had spent a great deal of effort to obtain. He was planning to give it away.

If the case could be turned over, a piece of carving would be nothing.

"Oh, I'm busy recently. I don't have time. Thank you for your invitation."

"Mr. Zack, it doesn't matter. I can take it to your house! What do you think?"

"I appreciate your good intentions. Alright, I have things to do, bye!"

With that, Zack hung up.

Looking at the beeping phone, Toby's eyes almost popped out.

"What lousy judge! How can he put on airs with me?"

Wendy frowned. "Dad, doesn't this Zack like antiques very much? In the past, he would always agree. What's going on"

Toby snorted coldly.

"It's probably because the Stanton Group gave him more benefits, so he is not interested in that jade carving!"

Wendy's face was filled with anger.

"I didn't expect Blair to be so good at using tricks. I underestimated her."

After saying that, Wendy looked at Toby with self-blame.

"Dad, I'm sorry. I asked our company to cooperate with the Stanton Group for the sake of our interests. I didn't expect that the Stanton Group would make a false accusation. They took our patent certificate and asked our group to compensate them so much money. It was my fault!"

Although Toby was angry in his heart, looking at his usually obedient daughter, he could no longer say any words of reproach.

"Alright, this is not your fault."

Wendy bit her lower lip and said, "I know that you won't blame me, but I know that this matter started because of me. I have decided that I plan to quit the entertainment circle!"
