Chapter 507
\nA Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 507<\/p>\n
“Ms. Audrey…” Curtis looked at the pencil box in Ben’s hand and couldn’t help but frown. “Why did you buy Ben a gift again? He already has everything he needs.”<\/p>\n
Audrey smiled. “It’s just a pencil box. It’s not expensive.”<\/p>\n
Curtis was so moved and he said, “Thank you so much, Ms. Audrey.”<\/p>\n
“Don’t mention it.”<\/p>\n
At this time, the waiter approached Audrey and asked, “Ms. Audrey, where would you like to sit?”<\/p>\n
Audrey pointed at a table several tables away. “At table 7!”<\/p>\n
Ben was doing his homework here and Audrey did not want to disturb him.<\/p>\n
“OK!”<\/p>\n
Curtis immediately turned to the waiter and said, “Tell the cashier I’ll be paying for Ms. Audrey’s meal.”<\/p>\n
“No, please don’t,” Audrey quickly said.<\/p>\n
“I insist, Ms. Audrey. If you refuse, I will take it that you despise me.”<\/p>\n
Hearing this, Audrey was unable to refuse Curtis.<\/p>\n
“Alright then,” she said.<\/p>\n
Curtis’s face brightened when Audrey agreed.<\/p>\n
“Ms. Audrey, please go have lunch. I won’t disturb you!”<\/p>\n
“Okay!”<\/p>\n
Audrey smiled and said, “Ben, keep on doing your homework. I’ll go to dinner.”<\/p>\n
“Okay.” Ben happily waved to Audrey.<\/p>\n
Audrey went to have lunch. The food in this restaurant was as good as ever.<\/p>\n
After lunch, Audrey saw that Ben was still doing her homework, and Curtis had just come out, so she walked forward and stopped Curtis.<\/p>\n
“Mr. Pritchett.”<\/p>\n
“Ms. Audrey, what else can I do for you? Does the food taste bad? I…”<\/p>\n
“No, Mr. Pritchett, don’t get me wrong. I came here today to see you.”<\/p>\n
Curtis pointed at his nose in surprise. “Me?”<\/p>\n
Audrey nodded. “Yes, Mr. Pritchett…”<\/p>\n
Audrey glanced at Ben. “Mr. Pritchett, can we talk somewhere else?”<\/p>\n
Curtis understood Audrey wanted to talk to him alone without Ben, and Curtis trusted Audrey, so he nodded without hesitation and said, “Sure.”<\/p>\n
Curtis walked to Ben.<\/p>\n
“Ben, you continue to do your homework here. Ms. Audrey and I have something to talk about outside. I’ll be back soon. Be good, okay?”<\/p>\n
“Okay!” Ben nodded.<\/p>\n
Curtis and Audrey walked out of the restaurant. When they arrived at a place where no one was around, they could see Ben through the restaurant window.<\/p>\n
When Curtis looked at Ben, his eyes were filled with fatherly love.<\/p>\n
Audrey also looked over.<\/p>\n
“Mr. Pritchett, Ben is really a good kid. You’re really lucky.”<\/p>\n
“Thank you, Ms. Audrey!” Curtis looked gratefully at Audrey. “Without you, Ben would probably be dead by now. You saved Ben’s life. I… I will never forget your kindness.”<\/p>\n
“At that moment when I saved Ben, I felt something strange. I wonder…” Audrey narrowed her eyes. “Who’s Ben’s mother?”<\/p>\n
As soon as Curtis heard about Ben’s mother, his face darkened.<\/p>\n
“She abandoned me and Ben back then. Now… I’m afraid she has long forgotten about us.”<\/p>\n
Audrey said, “Ms. Reid said she was willing to testify, but she has a condition. She wants to see you and Ben. If not, she won’t testify.”<\/p>\n
“Impossible!” Curtis refused. “I can’t let her see Ben.”<\/p>\n
Furthermore, in the current circumstances, how could Curtis tell Ben that his mother is being held as a prisoner? How would Ben stand up to his classmates?<\/p>\n
“I can understand your feelings, Mr. Pritchett. If you don’t want to do it, I won’t force you,” Audrey said in a relaxed tone. “Don’t worry. I only came here today to inform you about this. Don’t feel burdened.”<\/p>\n
Curtis lowered his head and considered it carefully.<\/p>\n
“Ms. Audrey, although I can’t let her see Ben, I want to see her. Is that okay?”<\/p>\n
“Sure!” Audrey nodded.<\/p>\n
Curtis’s expression relaxed a little. “Thank you, Ms. Audrey.”<\/p>\n
“Once I’ve arranged the meeting, I’ll let you know the time and place.”<\/p>\n
“Okay, thank you very much, Ms. Audrey.”<\/p>\n
After Audrey left, an employee of the restaurant walked over and patted Curtis on the shoulder, saying, “Curtis, I didn’t expect that you would know Miss Munn.”<\/p>\n
“You’re mistaken. That was Ms. Audrey, Audrey Koch.”<\/p>\n
“That’s right, it’s her. A classmate who works in the Munn Group told me Audrey Koch was actually Toby Munn’s eldest daughter who has been missing for six years, Audrey Munn.”<\/p>\n
Curtis’s expression changed drastically. “What?”<\/p>\n
…<\/p>\n
Audrey called Bryson right after she left.<\/p>\n
After listening to Audrey, Bryson said, “Alright, I’ll arrange for them to meet immediately.”<\/p>\n
“Then let me know when and where after you decide, I’ll tell Mr. Pritchett.”<\/p>\n
“Okay.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-3838","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/3838","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=3838"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
