After dinner, Kylee insisted on washing the dishes herself, not letting Bryson and Audrey help.
While she was on it, Audrey finally got the chance to talk with Bryson alone.
Bryson was sitting on the sofa while Audrey served him a glass of water.
She placed the glass on the tea table and sat on the other side. After some hesitation, she stated.
"Mr. Bryson."
Bryson glanced sideways at her.
"What?"
Audrey turned to be solemn, "Well, I heard that your company is going to change a law firm?"
"Yes!" Bryson had a sip of water and nodded, "Harold lost the lawsuit last time. He can't deal with simple economic disputes. We don't need such an incapable team."
"Well, Square Law Firm, the firm I work for, intends to cooperate with the Cordova Group. Maybe you can take us into consideration."
Bryson's deep gaze lingered on Audrey's face.
"Square Law Firm? The firm you work for?"
"Yes!" Audrey gave a little cough, "our firm has been around for years in Peace City. We have long-term working relationship with many large groups and have a prominent advantage in dealing with economic disputes. And..."
However, Bryson interrupted her in a bland tone.
"Ms. Audrey, there are a lot of law firms better than yours."
Audrey was lost for words.
Audrey had prepared a lot of words. But Bryson's words were like a basin of freezing water. All of her enthusiasm was extinguished.
Yeah, there were a lot of law firms better than hers.
He was Bryson. Of course, he knew which law firm would be of the greatest use to his company.
There was no need for the Cordova Group to choose Square Law Firm.
This meant rejection, right?
She didn't feel disappointed because she didn't entertain much hopes at all.
But the topic did produce an awkward moment.
Both of them were silent for a long while.
Suddenly, Bryson's voice came.
"Ms. Audrey."
"Yes?"
"Why don't you go on?"
"Go on with what?"
"Convincing me!"
Audrey was surprised.
He asked her to convince him? He had already rejected her, so how could she go on and convince him?
She rubbed her nose awkwardly.
"Mr. Bryson, to be honest, I agree that Square Law Firm was not a wise choice for you. After all, in Peace City, there are many law firms that are better. They are more worthy of your choice." Audrey stated with sincerity.
"Ms. Audrey is considerate."
"I'm just telling the truth."
"But I might change my mind if you continue to convince me." Bryson stated in a firm voice. As he said, he directly looked into Audrey.
Audrey was lost for words.
Somehow, she felt that Bryson's gaze was somewhat passionate. She had seen such gaze from her pursuers.
Could it be that Bryson...?
Impossible!
