A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 85

The next morning, Audrey woke up with a stuffy nose and a bad cold because of having been taken to a cold garage last night.

After packing, she was ready to check out.

When she opened the door, she saw that the door of the room on the opposite side was open.

A middle-aged cleaning lady was about to carry a clean sheet and a clean blanket to the room.

Audrey asked in surprise, "Where is the guest staying in that room?"

"He checked out this morning." the cleaning lady replied casually.

Audrey did not say a word.

Her heart sank lower and lower.

Bryson had really checked out.

It seemed that she really hurt him badly last night. As he didn't want to see her, he even checked out early.

Maybe that was for the best. Since Bryson did not want to see her again, they could go back to the time when they did not know each other.

However, she felt a tearing pain in her heart.

Could she really go back to the time when she did not know Bryson?

She pulled the suitcase next to her and went downstairs to meet Charity. They went to the railway station together.

...

When Audrey and Charity were back in Peace City, it was already afternoon.

They went straight back to the law firm with their luggage and filed all documents related to the Pine City case in the archives room. Freddy praised Audrey in front of everyone and promised to give her a bonus this month.

Pine City got its name from the pine nuts there, and Audrey had brought pine nuts from Pine City for her colleagues in the firm as souvenirs.

When she handed a bag of pine nuts to Liana, Liana smiled and took it. But after Audrey was away, Liana immediately threw the pine nuts into the bin.

Liana was furious.

How could Audrey be so lucky?

It was clearly an impossible case to win, but Audrey still succeeded. And she had even won the case beautifully and brought a large amount of income to the firm.

Because Audrey had won every case she dealt with, she had been promoted as a second-class lawyer in the law firm. She had risen to the same rank as Liana's. If Liana could not be promoted as a first-class lawyer quickly, Audrey would probably rise to a higher rank than hers soon.

The more Liana thought about that, the angrier she became.

After returning to her seat, Audrey stared at the screen of her computer in front of her and felt as though the screen was shaking.

She shook her head, but she felt that her head hurt.

She could tell that the symptoms of her cold had probably worsened.

That was terrible.

Audrey managed to call the client who was going to court two days later to confirm the matters on the court day with him, and she had been dizzy after that.

Finally, it was time to get off work. Audrey stayed a little longer to store information on her computer before packing her things and heading home.

Just as Audrey was about to leave the firm, she happened to see a janitor cleaning up the garbage bins in the office.

After the janitor picked up a garbage bag, he spoke in surprise, "Oh? This bag of pine nuts hasn't even been opened. Why did somebody throw it away?"

Audrey turned to look at the janitor.

She then figured out that the janitor was standing by Liana's seat.

Audrey frowned and left her seat.

She felt that her head really hurt too badly.

...

After finally getting home, Audrey took out a box of tablets for a cold from the drawer. After taking the medicine, she went to lie down.

However, her phone rang just as she lay down,

Audrey took out her phone and had a look.

The call was from Bryson's grandma, Kylee.
