Audrey now sobered up after the minor incident.
Her mind went blank after hearing what Bryson said.
His words were like spells, so powerful that she even did not dare to take another step forward.
She had to admit that Bryson was an imposing man.
She had always thought that she was a powerful woman in court. Her aggressive vibe always made
her opponents succumb and compromise. But now in front of such an imposing man, she felt inferior.
Audrey stared stiffly at Bryson.
"Mr. Bryson, what's the matter with you?"
"Your private room is not over there!" Bryson reminded her.
"What?" Audrey took out her phone and checked the address of the private room.
It turned out that her room was really not over there.
"Thank you, Mr. Bryson. I almost went the wrong way. I'll go back now."
Audrey turned around and walked in another direction. She was afraid that Bryson would call her again,
so she walked fast.
However, how did he know that her private room was not over there?
Forget it. She had better not spare Bryson much thought.
She should return to her room.
...
Shortly after Audrey returned to the private room, the party was over. Her colleagues from the law firm
were all ready to leave for KTV. However, Audrey pretended to them that she was not feeling well and
wanted to go home.
After they left, she stood on the side of the road, about to take a taxi.
When she saw a taxi available and was about to hail it, a car stopped in front of her.
It was a black Bentley Mulsanne.
The license plate was still the one she saw in the parking lot, so she knew clearly who was sitting
inside the car.
The rear window was open. Bryson's voice came from the window, "Get in the car."
Audrey bent over and hurriedly said, "Mr. Bryson, it's not convenient for you to give me a ride. I guess
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtit's out of the way. I'll take a taxi."
"Get in the car!" He said again in a peremptory tone.
Audrey didn't want to see the relationship between her and Bryson become complicated.
When she was thinking how to refuse the invitation, Bryson spoke again.
"Grandma specially instructed me to send you back."
It was Madam Cordova who ordered him to do so.
After hesitating for a moment, Audrey accepted his invitation. "Thank you, Mr. Bryson."
She opened the door and got in the car.
As soon as she sat down, there was a phone call from Madam Cordova.
"Hello, grandma. I'm in the car. He's giving me a ride back. You can rest assured."
After comforting Madam Cordova, Audrey hung up the phone.
She had to admit that Bryson's grandma truly loved her and cared for her, making her feel guiltier.
She was afraid that in the future, when she found out the truth, she would be sad.
"You ate out with your coworkers, right?" Bryson's words woke her up.
She nodded, "Yes."
"Congratulations on winning the case."
Although he had already sent her a message of congratulations, she was still very happy to hear him
congratulate her in person.
"Thank you." Audrey smiled.
After that, they didn't talk anymore.
Not long after, the car arrived at the community where Audrey lived.
Audrey was going to tell Bryson to stop in front of the gate.
However, before she told him, a car in front of them suddenly got a flat tire. It ran out of control and
crashed into a guardrail by the side of the road. The driver of Bryson's car didn't have time to brake and
crashed into the back of the other car.
When the two cars collided, Audrey was jolted forward by inertia.
However, she did not hit her forehead against the passenger seat. Instead, she hit her forehead against
something soft.
It was Bryson's palm that prevented her from hitting the head against the passenger seat.
Bryson did not look at Audrey. Instead, he asked his driver Kolby, "What happened?"
"Boss, I'm gonna take a look!"
Kolby went to check what happened and soon he returned.
He stood outside the car window and reported to Bryson, "Boss, that car has a flat tire. The car lights of
our car are damaged and it can't go on the road anymore. I have to negotiate with that car's owner for
compensation, and the traffic police are on their way here. Since the car can't be used at present, I've
called someone else to pick you up."
"How long will it take?"
"About half an hour."
Audrey didn't know what to say.
Bryson was just giving her a ride home, and now there was an accident. How unlucky!
Audrey was a little uneasy.
The car was in the way now. Anyway, it was unsafe to sit inside the car.
Audrey invited Bryson over, "Mr. Bryson, I guess we have to wait for a while before another car arrives.
Why don't you go to my apartment and have a rest?"
"Alright!"
...
Now they were in the apartment.
Audrey poured a glass of water for him.
"Mr. Bryson, drink some water."
"Thank you."
Audrey poured herself a glass of water too.
She looked at Bryson with a sense of guilt, "Mr. Bryson, I'm sorry for what happened today."
"For you went to the wrong or something else?"
Audrey was embarrassed.
Could he drop this silly wrong room thing?
"Don't tell grandma what happened tonight!" Audrey begged him.
"OK."
He said OK? Was this a promise?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAudrey said in a sad tone, "I'm sorry for what happened to your car."
If it wasn't for her, his car wouldn't collide with the other car.
"Don't mention it." It was the car's honor indeed.
"But if it wasn't for me, you wouldn't ..."
"It was my decision to give you a ride, so you don't have to apologize."
After he finished speaking, he felt uncomfortable sitting on the sofa and took out something from the
cushion.
It was a magazine.
The cover of the magazine was a couple in a sexy posture.
The moment she saw the magazine, Audrey felt her blood rush to her forehead.
The next second, she dashed forward, grabbed the magazine, and quickly put it in the drawer.
Last time it was a photo, and this time he found her magazine.
Her image was completely ruined.
Last night, Nell sent her another photo of a male model and insisted that in the magazine, there was a
man looking like the man on the photo. Of course, this magazine was also Nell's doing.
Audrey was sitting in the living room and watching TV at that time. She just picked up the magazine
and compared the two men.
As a result, she forgot to put the magazine away.
She was so careless. She thought that there was no one else in her apartment, so she could put her
things as she wanted.
In the future, she must put away all her private stuff.
She felt that there was a subtle expression on Bryson's face, so she immediately defended herself.
"This magazine was brought here by my friend last time. It's not mine. Don't get me wrong." Audrey
explained.
"I see."
Audrey was speechless.
She did not know how Bryson judged her. Anyway, her image was completely ruined.
It was all Nell's fault.
