A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 3

Square Law Firm

As soon as she reached the door, Audrey could feel the decadence of the law firm. There was hardly anyone inside. They didn't even have a receptionist.

Audrey finally found Freddy Steele's office.

She knocked on the door.

"Who is it?"

"I am Audrey. I have called before."

Audrey could hear panicked footsteps. After a long while, someone moved to the door and opened the door.

As soon as the door opened, a pungent smell of cigarettes came straight at Audrey. She was greeted by a messy office. Magazines and clothes were piled up into a mess in a corner on the sofa. The ashtray on the desk was full of cigarette butts and ashes. One cigarette was only half left, emitting smoke.

Freddy touched his messy hair, not bothering to hide the joy on his face.

"Hello, you are Audrey? I didn't expect you to be a great beauty."

"Mr. Steele, nice to meet you!"

"Please come in."

Audrey walked in and sat down on the sofa.

Freddy looked at Audrey with some uncertainty. "Audrey, are you sure you want to join our firm?"

After all, Audrey was a famous lawyer in Country M. Freddy's law firm was obscure in this city, and its business was decling.

Audrey smiled and nodded, "I'm sure."

Sealing was extremely excited when he received a positive answer.

"Audrey, welcome to our company. When will you start work?"

"Tomorrow!"

"Tomorrow? That's great."

"The QK Architects is engaged in a lawsuit against a subsidiary of the Four Seasons Group. I heard that the defense lawyer was from our firm. Can you leave this case to me?"

The QK Architects and the subsidiary of the Four Seasons Group had an economic dispute. The former had lost the first trial. Besides, the latter had conclusive evidence. Although they had complied with the customer's request to appeal, they were not confident that they would win in the second trial.

However, Audrey volunteered to take over this hot potato. This was of complete benefit to Freddy.

If she won this case, their company would receive a large number of legal fees. If they lost, it would prove Audrey's reputation to be undeserving. Freddy could shift the blame onto Audrey so that the client would target her instead of him.

Freddy coughed softly. "Audrey, are you sure you want to take over this case? If you do, you can't go back on your word."

"Of course!"

Audrey walked out of Square Law Firm with a meaningful smile.

Suddenly, her phone rang loudly.

She picked up the phone and said, "Hello?"

"Hello, is this Ms. Audrey?"

A man's deep and attractive voice came from the phone.

Her phone number was a new one, and she hadn't notified others. How did the man know her number so quickly?

She narrowed her eyes vigilantly.

"It's me. May I ask who you are?"

"I'm Bryson."

Bryson?

She only knew one Bryson, the president of Cordova Group. It was the richest and most powerful business empire in Peace City. Moreover, Bryson was the most handsome man in Peace City. So, he was the Prince Charming that countless women in Peace City would kill to marry.

Audrey asked subconsciously.

"Which Bryson are you?"

A faint voice came from the other side of the phone.

"Ms. Audrey, which Bryson do you know besides me?"

Audrey couldn't answer.

"Mr. Bryson, may I know what you are looking for me for?"

Someone like Bryson on the top of the social pyramid wouldn't look for her, a nobody, for no reason, right?

Or ... was he a fake?

"I heard that Ms. Audrey saved my grandmother today."

'What? The person I saved today was Bryson Cordova's grandmother? She is like the Empress dowager of Peace City.'

Audrey carefully gave it a careful analysis before she replied.

"It's no big deal! Mr. Bryson, if you want to thank me for it, there is no need for you to do so!"

"Ms. Audrey, I need you to do something for me."

"What is it?"

"Let's talk when we meet." The simple reply was heavy with authority.
