Chapter 14
\nA Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 14<\/p>\n
Looking at Bryson’s cold face and his angry gaze, Alma panicked.<\/p>\n
“Mr. Bryson, why are you staring at me this way?”<\/p>\n
“Miss Alma!”<\/p>\n
This was the first time he called her like that to her face, which made Alma elated.<\/p>\n
“Mr. Bryson, take a seat, please.”<\/p>\n
As long as he was willing to sit down, there was a chance for her.<\/p>\n
“No, I gotta go.” Finishing his sentence, Bryson turned around and was about to leave.<\/p>\n
Alma, “……”<\/p>\n
She quickly ran forward and grabbed his arm.<\/p>\n
“Wait. You just got there. Why are you leaving?”<\/p>\n
Bryson looked at her hand that was holding his arm, and said sarcastically,<\/p>\n
“Miss Alma, you need to know that I hate two things.”<\/p>\n
Alma’s heart seemed to sink to the bottom, and she got a bad feeling about what he was going to say next.<\/p>\n
“And they are…”<\/p>\n
“One set me up; two, use my family.”<\/p>\n
Alma’s smile froze. Her face went pale suddenly.<\/p>\n
Bryson said word by word, “And you did both.”<\/p>\n
His words broke her heart.<\/p>\n
She trembled, and the hand that was holding his arm also withdrew stiffly.<\/p>\n
He dusted his suit in disgust to her face, as if there was something dirty on it.<\/p>\n
Then he turned around and left.<\/p>\n
Alma stood still there. It took her a long time to come back to herself.<\/p>\n
She could not believe that Bryson had turned her down. He shut her right down.<\/p>\n
After a while, a waiter walked in.<\/p>\n
Before he entered the room, he saw Bryson was leaving.<\/p>\n
Seeing Alma standing there, awkward, he asked cautiously, “Miss? Shall I serve now?”<\/p>\n
Alma was gloomy, and shouted angrily, “Get out!”<\/p>\n
…<\/p>\n
As soon as he left the restaurant, Bryson called home and was told that Audrey was in the Cordova Mansion right now.<\/p>\n
Just as he hung up, the phone rang again.<\/p>\n
It was George Kuhn.<\/p>\n
“What’s up?” He answered the phone coldly.<\/p>\n
“Wow, frosty. Who pissed you off?”<\/p>\n
“What do you want?” Bryson’s voice was low as if he was about to get outrageous next second.<\/p>\n
George then said seriously, “Well, Matthew just came back. We are at the Spring River Hotel now. It’s been a long time. Do you wanna come?”<\/p>\n
Originally, Bryson wanted to refuse.<\/p>\n
“See you there!”<\/p>\n
…<\/p>\n
The Spring River Hotel.<\/p>\n
Bryson walked to a room and just as he pushed the door open, George pulled him in.<\/p>\n
“Hey, buddy. Here you are. Come on!”<\/p>\n
Taking the wine, Bryson drank it up.<\/p>\n
On the sofa sat a handsome and charming man.<\/p>\n
He glanced at Bryson when he emptied the glass. James Walker. He seemed smart.<\/p>\n
James put on an evil smile, “Easy, man. Come on, get another shot with me!”<\/p>\n
Without saying anything, Bryson picked up another glass and drank it up again with James.<\/p>\n
George also raised his glass, “Hey, count me in. Cheers!”<\/p>\n
Not long after, George got drunk. He fell asleep on the sofa, snoring like a pig.<\/p>\n
James kicked him away with a look of disgust.<\/p>\n
A black Bentley Mulsanne parked in front of the villa.<\/p>\n
Kolby helped Bryson out of the car and they walked toward the villa.<\/p>\n
Kylee and Audrey were talking in the living room. They stood up when seeing Kolby bringing Bryson in.<\/p>\n
For Kylee, it hurt to see her grandson drunk and stumbling.<\/p>\n
“Why is he so drunk?” Kylee looked at Kolby angrily, “Who drank with him? They even didn’t know to stop him?”<\/p>\n
Kolby was embarrassed.<\/p>\n
“He drank with Mr. James and Mr. George.”<\/p>\n
Audrey frowned slightly.<\/p>\n
Didn’t he go to dinner with Alma? Why did he drink with them? Could it be that he didn’t eat with her?<\/p>\n
“Huh, those two brats!” Kylee was a little angry, but she worried about Bryson. She said to Kolby, “Go take him upstairs!”<\/p>\n
“Sorry, Madam Cordova. Would you excuse me? Nature calls.” Kolby blushed embarrassedly.<\/p>\n
“Fine. We’ll take care of him.”<\/p>\n
Kylee alone couldn’t do it, so Audrey went forward to help her.<\/p>\n
Kylee was old and weak, so it was dangerous for her to go upstairs while carrying Bryson.<\/p>\n
So Audrey held him and said to Kylee, “Grandma, let me take care of this. Why don’t you tell the chef to prepare some soup for him?”<\/p>\n
“Alright. Be careful.”<\/p>\n
“Don’t worry!”<\/p>\n
Kylee then went to the kitchen. Audrey helped Bryson upstairs alone.<\/p>\n
He was so drunk, so he almost leaned against her completely. She found it a little bit struggling for her.<\/p>\n
But given that she had lied to him, Audrey had no choice but to help him back to his room.<\/p>\n
Audrey turned on the lights in his room and brought him in.<\/p>\n
Finally, she put him on the bed. She pushed him onto the bed and tucked him in. She heaved a sigh of relief.<\/p>\n
Then she turned around to leave.<\/p>\n
Suddenly, his hand grabbed her wrist and pulled her over.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-3345","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/3345","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3345"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
