A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 20

Audrey now sobered up after the minor incident.

Her mind went blank after hearing what Bryson said.

His words were like spells, so powerful that she even did not dare to take another step forward.

She had to admit that Bryson was an imposing man.

She had always thought that she was a powerful woman in court. Her aggressive vibe always made her opponents succumb and compromise. But now in front of such an imposing man, she felt inferior.

Audrey stared stiffly at Bryson.

"Mr. Bryson, what's the matter with you?"

"Your private room is not over there!" Bryson reminded her.

"What?" Audrey took out her phone and checked the address of the private room.

It turned out that her room was really not over there.

"Thank you, Mr. Bryson. I almost went the wrong way. I'll go back now."

Audrey turned around and walked in another direction. She was afraid that Bryson would call her again, so she walked fast.

However, how did he know that her private room was not over there?

Forget it. She had better not spare Bryson much thought.

She should return to her room.

...

Shortly after Audrey returned to the private room, the party was over. Her colleagues from the law firm were all ready to leave for KTV. However, Audrey pretended to them that she was not feeling well and wanted to go home.

After they left, she stood on the side of the road, about to take a taxi.

When she saw a taxi available and was about to hail it, a car stopped in front of her.

It was a black Bentley Mulsanne.

The license plate was still the one she saw in the parking lot, so she knew clearly who was sitting inside the car.

The rear window was open. Bryson's voice came from the window, "Get in the car."

Audrey bent over and hurriedly said, "Mr. Bryson, it's not convenient for you to give me a ride. I guess it's out of the way. I'll take a taxi."

"Get in the car!" He said again in a peremptory tone.

Audrey didn't want to see the relationship between her and Bryson become complicated.

When she was thinking how to refuse the invitation, Bryson spoke again.

"Grandma specially instructed me to send you back."

It was Madam Cordova who ordered him to do so.

After hesitating for a moment, Audrey accepted his invitation. "Thank you, Mr. Bryson."

She opened the door and got in the car.

As soon as she sat down, there was a phone call from Madam Cordova.

"Hello, grandma. I'm in the car. He's giving me a ride back. You can rest assured."

After comforting Madam Cordova, Audrey hung up the phone.

She had to admit that Bryson's grandma truly loved her and cared for her, making her feel guiltier.

She was afraid that in the future, when she found out the truth, she would be sad.

"You ate out with your coworkers, right?" Bryson's words woke her up.

She nodded, "Yes."

"Congratulations on winning the case."

Although he had already sent her a message of congratulations, she was still very happy to hear him congratulate her in person.

"Thank you." Audrey smiled.

After that, they didn't talk anymore.

Not long after, the car arrived at the community where Audrey lived.

Audrey was going to tell Bryson to stop in front of the gate.

However, before she told him, a car in front of them suddenly got a flat tire. It ran out of control and crashed into a guardrail by the side of the road. The driver of Bryson's car didn't have time to brake and crashed into the back of the other car.

When the two cars collided, Audrey was jolted forward by inertia.

However, she did not hit her forehead against the passenger seat. Instead, she hit her forehead against something soft.

It was Bryson's palm that prevented her from hitting the head against the passenger seat.
