Chapter 444
\nA Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 444<\/p>\n
Simon stiffened and stopped leaving. He looked at Bryson in panic.<\/p>\n
“Uncle … anything else?”<\/p>\n
“How did you know Lance?” Bryson asked.<\/p>\n
Simon knew that when Lance secretly came to the Peace City, Bryson still had a conflict with Lance and wanted to find him. It was then that Simon met Lance. Lance was extremely hungry and Simon invited him to dinner.<\/p>\n
If Bryson knew that Simon once hindered him, he would definitely be angry.<\/p>\n
So Simon lied. He said, “Well, I met him just now. They caught me and I told them I was your nephew. Then they let go of me.”<\/p>\n
“Is that all?”<\/p>\n
“Sure.” Simon felt guilty and he didn’t dare to look Bryson in the eye.<\/p>\n
But Bryson knew that he was lying. Simon would keep looking around whenever he lied, which evidently indicated that he felt guilty.<\/p>\n
At that moment, Simon’s phone rang.<\/p>\n
Simon was excited as the call was from his mother.<\/p>\n
He never found receiving his mother’s call so exciting before.<\/p>\n
Simon answered the call immediately to prevent Bryson from questioning him.<\/p>\n
“Hi, mom!”<\/p>\n
Before his mother finished speaking, Simon continued to say, “Mom, I’m with uncle. I’ll go home right now and arrive in half an hour.”<\/p>\n
Then he hung up the phone.<\/p>\n
He turned to Bryson and said, “Uncle, my mom urges me to go home. She is worried about me. I tell her that I’ll arrive home in half an hour. I have to go now.”<\/p>\n
Knowing that Simon was eager to leave, Bryson felt impatient and waved at him. “OK.”<\/p>\n
“Goodbye.” Simon heaved a sigh of relief.<\/p>\n
Then he quickly went out of Bryson’s office without hesitation.<\/p>\n
When Simon left, Bryson’s face clouded over.<\/p>\n
He believed that Simon met Lance before. Otherwise, Lance wouldn’t let go of Simon. Though, he didn’t care about how they knew each other.<\/p>\n
Cooperating with Lance wouldn’t cause any loss for the Cordova Group.<\/p>\n
But Bryson clearly understood that Lance, who didn’t rely on legal business, had another purpose.<\/p>\n
Anyway, Bryson would stop him no matter what purposes he had.<\/p>\n
Then Bryson’s phone rang. He glanced at the screen. It was from his subordinate.<\/p>\n
“Have you got him?”<\/p>\n
The subordinate replied, “Yes.”<\/p>\n
“Send me the address. I’ll arrive soon.”<\/p>\n
“Yes!”<\/p>\n
…<\/p>\n
“Traitor?” Bryson chuckled. “When you asked someone to kidnap Simon, didn’t you think about the result?”<\/p>\n
Anthony felt guilty but he disguised his emotion in a second.<\/p>\n
“What are you talking about? I never do that. Don’t wrong me.”<\/p>\n
Bryson smiled again. He took out his phone and showed a video to Anthony.<\/p>\n
In the video, Elvis was bleeding and got severely injured. He looked at the camera and murmured, “Dad, help, help!”<\/p>\n
Anthony was shocked. The scene was painful for him.<\/p>\n
He pointed to Bryson again and said, “Bastard. How could you torture Elvis? Are you cold-blooded?”<\/p>\n
Bryson still smiled and squatted in front of Anthony.<\/p>\n
“Mr. Cordova, you know that I’m cold-blooded, don’t you?”<\/p>\n
Anthony was stunned. He couldn’t do anything but stare at Bryson.<\/p>\n
Everyone in the Cordova family knew how Bryson consolidated his power.<\/p>\n
He was always brutal, cold-blooded and ruthless, never forgiving anyone who should be punished.<\/p>\n
Those who made a mistake would be tortured, without release of death.<\/p>\n
Anthony finally came to realize what Bryson was.<\/p>\n
He was not a human, but a devil.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-3775","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/3775","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=3775"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
