A Sweet Night The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently

Chapter 51

When Audrey arrived at the Cordova mansion, the guards and servants of the Cordovas warmly welcomed her. Audrey walked into the villa easily.

Kylee was surprised to see Audrey, and then she was overjoyed.

"Elliana, why do you come at such a late hour?"

The moment Audrey saw Kylee, she felt a little stunned.

When Audrey heard that Bryson would be in danger, something inside her urged her to persuade Bryson to change his mind. Because Bryson did not answer her phone, she directly rushed to the Cordova Mansion.

Audrey felt guilty on hearing Kylee's question.

She was shocked. After two seconds, she came to herself.

"Well, Grandma, I miss you, so I come."

Kylee was happy to hear Audrey's answer.

"My granddaughter has a sweet tongue. If you miss grandma, just come back." Kylee held Audrey's hand and asked with concern, "Have you had supper since you come so late? Why are you dressed so thin on such a cold night? You should put on another piece of clothing."

Audrey was touched.

"Grandma, I've had supper. I'm not afraid of the cold. Touch my hand. Is it hot?"

"It's always right to wear thick clothes. Haven't you heard that to wear more clothes during spring and less in autumn? It's spring now. So, you need to wear more."

Audrey had a wry smile.

"Grandma, it's summer now. It can be thirty degrees at noon. There's no need to wear so much in this kind of weather."

"You're always so stubborn. Forget it. I won't argue with you."

"By the way, grandma...." Audrey glanced around and did not see Bryson. She looked in the direction of the study from afar. The room seemed to be dark. "Where's my brother? Is he at home?"

"He's not at home. He works overtime tonight and hasn't come back yet. What's the matter? Is there anything urgent you want to talk with your brother?"

"No. I called Bryson and wanted to tell him that I would come back, but no one answered my phone."

"Well, he's leaving for Pine City tomorrow afternoon. He's probably busy with the company business. He may come back late tonight," Kylee said with a worried tone.

He might come back late tonight....

Moreover, tomorrow ... he was going to Pine City.

Audrey's eyebrows furrowed. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

"Got it!"

Kylee held Audrey's hand, reluctant to let it go. "Elliana, it's so late. Don't go back tonight. Can you stay at home?"

Audrey smiled and nodded. "Alright!"

After Audrey entered the guest room, she regained her clear mind.

She began to regret it, but it was too late.

She shouldn't have come to the Cordova Mansion.

Was she going to persuade Bryson not to go to Pine City?

What qualifications did she have? To some degree, she was his sister? But he said he didn't want a sister.

The more Audrey thought about it, the more she felt that it was wrong to come here.

Anyway, she came here to see Kylee. When she left tomorrow morning, she wouldn't care about anything else.

Bryson was neither her friend nor her relative. His safety had nothing to do with her.

She just wanted to come back to take revenge.

...

It was already midnight. Audrey was tossing and turning in bed, unable to fall asleep.

Her mind was full of Bryson being kidnapped or assassinated after he went to Pine City. As a result, she lost sleep.

Audrey was enraged, for she couldn't fall asleep. She suddenly sat up and scratched her hair irritably.

People tended to be thirsty when he was irritated.

Audrey got up to get some water.

There was no water in the water dispenser on the second floor, so she went to the kitchen on the first floor.

As soon as she walked down the stairs, she vaguely saw a man sitting on the edge of the bar under the dim yellow light. He was drinking wine with a glass in his hand.

His suit jacket was casually tossed on the bar counter. The tie around his neck had been untied and was left together with the jacket. The cufflinks on both sleeves had been unbuttoned and he rolled up sleeves to his forearms.

He drank in an elegant manner, and the curve of his neck was sexy. He was like an attractive monster.

Seeing him, Audrey calmed down a bit.

"Mr. Bryson?" Audrey called out.

Bryson looked up at Audrey with obvious surprise in his eyes.

"Ms. Audrey, you didn't leave tonight?"

Audrey lied. "I want to spend more time with Grandma, so I didn't go back."

"You haven't slept yet?"

"Well, I've been under a lot of pressure lately, so I suffer from insomnia."

Bryson took out another glass from the wine rack and signaled to Audrey. "Since you can't sleep, then have a drink with me. Drinking will help you sleep."

Audrey hesitated for a moment. In the end, she walked over and sat down beside Bryson.

Bryson took out another bottle of cocktail, not as strong as the whiskey he drank.

Then, he filled a cup for Audrey and pushed it to her.

"Thank you!" Audrey took the glass.

She took a sip and the mellow wine slid into Audrey's throat, soothing her stomach.

After drinking a mouthful of wine, Audrey said, "Mr. Bryson, you come back so late. Are you busy with the company business?"

"Yes." Bryson didn't hide anything from Audrey. "I'm going to Pine City tomorrow, so I have to take care of everything in the company."

"To Pine City?"

"Yes!" Bryson casually drank a cup of wine.

"Well, Mr. Bryson, I heard that you had a grudge against Lance. If you go to Pine City, I'm afraid...."

Bryson chuckled. "I have never been afraid of anyone."

"But Lance is revengeful."

Bryson suddenly turned around and stared at Audrey's eyes. "Ms. Audrey, are you trying to persuade me not to go to Pine City?"

Audrey didn't dare to meet Bryson's gaze. She turned her face away and took a sip of wine to hide her panic.

"Well, as your friend, I'm just trying to remind Mr. Bryson that it's dangerous to go to Pine City. It will be better for you not to go to Pine City."

After listening to Audrey's explanation, Bryson stared at the wine in his glass and gently shook it. He let out laughter with a half-smile on his face.

Audrey frowned and looked at Bryson. "Mr. Bryson, what are you laughing at?"

Bryson's gaze shifted his gaze from the wine to Audrey. His gaze was even more burning and aggressive than before.

"Ms. Audrey, I am very selfish and arrogant. I never listen to others' advice. If you try to persuade me as my friend, don't waste your breath. If you are willing to act as another role, I'll consider your advice."
