Chapter 184
Wendy fell to the ground, looking miserable.
It fell silent. Just as she was about to get up, she found everyone staring at her meaningfully.
Wendy frowned and looked around.
Finally, she figured out what was going on. She screamed and threw away the pant in her hand. She even forgot to stand up. She turned around and tried to grab Blair's ankle.
Blair walked away in disgust.
Dane also realized something. His face turned pale. He pulled up his pant and turned around to dress up.
The assistants of the Stanton Group laughed out loud. Dane's assistants and lawyers also wanted to laugh, but they tried to hold it back. It was so hard not to laugh.
Wendy got up and couldn't help trembling. She didn't dare to look at others. They were all looking at her with contempt.
Wendy gritted her teeth and glared at Audrey.
She wanted to knock Audrey down. But Wendy fell in turn. It was so strange.
Wendy looked at Audrey as if Audrey was a devil. Then Wendy left the court with her lawyers.
...
After leaving the court, Audrey called Bryson to pick her up.
Audrey got into the car and they left.
"Where do you want to eat?" Bryson asked.
Audrey blinked. "Aren't you going to ask about the trial?"
Bryson looked at her with a smile. "Do I need to ask? You never lose."
Audrey was lost for words.
She was very happy that Bryson trusted her, but...
He was too confident in her. He believed her blindly.
Audrey stared at him. Bryson raised his eyebrows. "What's wrong?"
Audrey put on a straight face. "There is no surprise at all!"
"Surprise?" Bryson checked his performance.
"Audrey, how was the case today? Did you win?" Bryson looked serious as he asked again.
Audrey was speechless.
Bryson changed quickly.
Audrey coughed.
"I won."
"Congratulations! I'll treat you to lunch. Where do you want to eat?"
Audrey didn't know what to say.
Bryson was doing well.
...
Bryson and Audrey sat down in a restaurant.
On the way to the restaurant, Bryson answered many calls from the company. Audrey felt guilty.
After they ordered, Audrey looked at Bryson and frowned.
"Bryson, you don't have to eat lunch with me every day."
Ever since she got together with Bryson, Bryson would have lunch with her every day. No matter where Audrey was, Bryson would pick her up. Audrey was touched and felt sorry for Bryson.
"Don't you want to see me?"
"No!" Audrey was just worried. "You run such a large group, and you're very busy. I thought you might be tired."
Bryson poured some tea for her. "You moved out. It's hard for us to see each other except at noon. The company will not go broke without me. And even if it does, I can support you. Don't worry."
Bryson joked and handed the cup to Audrey.
Audrey couldn't say anything.
She lowered her head and took a sip of tea. "Well, this tea tastes good." Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Suddenly, Audrey's phone rang.
It was Simon.
Why did he call her?
Audrey answered the phone.
"Hello?"
Simon sounded excited.
"Audrey, where are you?"
"I'm..." Audrey told Simon the address.
Simon said, "It's close to me. I will come over now!"
Audrey said nothing.
"What's wrong? Who is it?"
Audrey swallowed hard. "Your nephew."
"Why did he call you?"
"I don't know, but he said ... he will come over now."
Bryson was speechless.
When the dishes came, Simon got to the restaurant. He walked in and saw Bryson and Audrey in the box.
Simon stopped when he saw Bryson.
Simon turned to Audrey and sat down. He waved to the waiter and asked for another set of knives and forks.
"Uncle Bryson, why are you here?" Simon looked at Bryson as if Bryson was like a third wheel.
Bryson's expression darkened. He pursed his lips.
"Aren't you preparing for SAT at school? Why are you out here?"
Simon smiled happily. "I finished my exams yesterday."
Bryson fell silent.
Simon muttered, "I wanted to ask Audrey out yesterday, but my parents wanted me to have dinner with them. So I can only hang out today. I played football with classmates in the morning. Then I wanted to have lunch with Audrey. But I didn't know..."
Simon glanced at Bryson with resentment. Bryson pursed his lips and remained silent.
Audrey didn't say anything.
Suddenly, Bryson's phone rang again. It was from the company.
After Bryson hung up the phone, Simon complained,
"Uncle Bryson, you're so busy. Why don't you stay in the company?"
Audrey did not know what to say.
So did Bryson.
Simon did not notice that Bryson's face had grown cold. He continued to complain,
"We'll lose our appetites if your phone kept ringing."
Bryson was lost for words again.
And so did Audrey.
She rubbed her forehead.
She thought, "Simon, what's wrong with you? Can't you see that your uncle is angry? If you continue, I'm afraid even I can't speak for you."
Audrey and Bryson had lunch here. Simon disturbed them and even complained about Bryson.
Bryson looked at Simon coldly.
"How was the exam?"
Simon was confident. "It's easy. I can get a perfect score."
"When will you start applying to university?"
"This afternoon. I'm going back to school after lunch." Simon smiled at Audrey. "I'm going to apply for University A. It's very close to your firm, Audrey."
