Audrey took a deep breath and slowly turned around.
"Well, Mr. Bryson, thank you for your help today. It's getting late now. You can go back in case
Grandma worries about you."
Bryson looked at Audrey with little emotion in his eyes.
"It's indeed getting late."
Audrey was delighted secretly after hearing his words.
Was Bryson planning to leave by saying so?
She pretended to be calm, holding her pleasure inside, and said, "Kolby should be around. How about
calling him to pick you up?"
As Bryson's driver, Kolby would always be around standing by wherever Bryson went. Therefore he
could show up upon Bryson's demand.
Audrey took out her phone, preparing to call Kolby.
Audrey had just found Kolby's phone number when Bryson reached out and snatched her phone away.
Audrey was speechless.
Looking at the phone in his hand, she wanted to take it back, but she didn't have the guts to do so. She
wasn't such a tyrannical person as he was.
"It 's not necessary." Bryson said coldly.
Audrey was speechless again.
So she coughed softly and said in concern, "Mr. Bryson, it's so late. Just let Kolby drive you home."
"I left my laptop in your home!"
Audrey suddenly remembered that.
Bryson worked at her house during the day. However, when he came down to dinner with them, he did
not bring his laptop with him. As the CEO of the Cordova Group, he had to use it to deal with a large
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtamount of business every day. He had to bring the laptop with him.
Therefore, the reason why Bryson snatched her phone, stopping her from calling Kolby was because
his computer was left at her house.
However, if he wanted to take his computer, he had to go back to her house again.
Although Audrey was on guard, she could only bring him back home.
They opened the door and came in. Audrey hurriedly packed up his laptop and documents on the
coffee table and put them into his bag.
After packing up, Audrey gave the bag to him.
"Mr. Bryson, your belongings have been packed."
What she really meant was he could take his things and get out.
Bryson looked down at the bag in her hand, then looked up at her. When he saw that she was
impatient, he immediately burst into anger.
"Don't you want to talk about the cooperation between the Cordova Group and Square Law Firm?"
Audrey said in surprise, "Did you said that you want to cooperate with our law firm?"
He nodded.
Audrey twitched her mouth. She had heard before that the Cordova Group had not chosen its
consulting firm yet. But now, as he suddenly said that he wanted to cooperate with Square Law Firm,
she had to doubt his intention.
"Mr. Bryson," Audrey asked cautiously, "Why did you suddenly decide to cooperate with our law firm?"
Looking serious, he said,
"The last consultant lawyer of my corporation was defeated by you. We believe that you are more
qualified for the consultant lawyer of my company."
"Me?" She pointed at her own nose.
He nodded, "Yes, of course, if you don't want to be a consultant lawyer for my corporation, I won't force
you to do so."
Hearing his words, Audrey had spirited eyes and she instantly wanted to reject him.
However, he continued to say,
"However, if you refuse, please send a letter of rejection written by your director. Otherwise, in
accordance with the law, our company will sue your firm for breaking promises."
Audrey had nothing to reply.
She twitched her mouth even more strongly.
He was indeed a businessman all over.
At the beginning, she wondered why he had suddenly become so easy-going and merciful. Now that it
was still an illusion.
Just then she was touched, but in the next second, she wished to kick him off as far away as she could.
Audrey smiled stiffly, "Mr. Bryson, it's our honor to cooperate with the Cordova Group. Don't worry, I'm
very willing to be a consultant lawyer for your corporation."
He smiled and reached out to shake hands with her.
"Ms. Audrey, I hope to have a pleasant cooperation with you!"
Pissed off as she was, Audrey only wanted to smash the bag onto his head.
Audrey unwillingly stretched out her hand.
"I wish the same!"
Finally, he took the computer bag in her hand.
"Tomorrow morning at eight o'clock, I'll be waiting for you at the Cordova Group. Don't be late!" He said,
wearing a poker face.
She forced herself to smile, "Don't worry, I won't be late."
"Then I'll go back home!"
Audrey politely took a bow to him, "Goodbye, Mr. Bryson!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe smiled, watching him enter the elevator and leave.
The moment the elevator door closed, she changed to a sad face and slammed the door fiercely.
She sat on the sofa as if her strength were run out, glaring at the ceiling.
"Is he superior just because he is rich? I do not think so."
But...
Being a CEO was nothing special, but being the CEO of the Cordova Group was special.
It did not matter if he was just a little richer than average, but he was far richer than her.
As an ordinary person, she could only accept his request.
As the saying goes, to be in the king's company is similar to living with a tiger. Bryson was a fierce
tiger. She felt that her mood was swinging like a roller coaster.
Tomorrow, she would have to go to the Cordova Tower to find him.
After becoming a consultant lawyer for the Corporation, she would have to meet him frequently in the
future. This went against her original intention of keeping a distance from him.
On the other hand, deep in her heart she was secretly happy as she could see him often again.
...
In the Four Seasons Group General Manager's Office.
Julian looked at his assistants in front of him. He was so angry that his face turned green.
"You are useless. You haven't even been able to get a woman killed for such a long time. Aren't you
useless?" Julian shouted loudly at them.
They trembled and didn't dare to raise their heads.
"Well ... she was excellent in defensing herself. Moreover ... she has many people guarding her
around. We simply can't find a chance to attack her."
"You are just incompetent, don't make excuses!"
They did not dare to reply.
Julian's eyes darkened.
As she had humiliated him so much, he definitely wouldn't let her go so easily.
Wasn't she in favor of suing others? Then he would let her pay her bill.
