A Sweet Night The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently

Chapter 10

After work, Audrey rushed to the Cordova Mansion.

Kylee had been waiting for her.

Hearing the gatekeeper say that Audrey was here, Kylee came out of the villa to welcome her.

Audrey brought gifts and tonics with her. Kylee said, "There's no need to bring gifts. Here is your home. We have everything."

"They are from my client," Audrey said.

"Someone brings in these things."

"Yes!"

A servant came forward, taking them from Audrey.

Kylee asked Everett, the butler beside her, "Everett, is Bryson home?"

"Madam Cordova, I just called Mr. Bryson. He said he was on his way back."

"Well, tell the kitchen to prepare the dinner."

"Yes, Ma'am."

...

While waiting for dinner, Kylee and Audrey were playing gobang in the living room.

Kylee wanted to take back moves again. And she had done that several times.

Kylee said, "It's a false move. I want to undo it...."

Audrey didn't dare to say anything.

Everett walked over.

"Madam Cordova."

"What's the matter?" Kylee undid the move with satisfaction, and then she took another move.

"Miss Alma's here."

"Which Miss Alma?" Kylee stared at the chessboard. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

"She sent you to the hospital when you fainted last time." Everett reminded her.

Knowing who Everett was talking about, Kylee said, "It's her. Invite her in."

"Yes."

After Everett left, Kylee looked at Audrey with a smile.

"Elliana, when Miss Alma comes, help me see if she's a right person!"

"A right person?"

"Yes!" Kylee sighed, "Bryson's thirty years old. But ... he's not married yet. He doesn't have a girlfriend, let alone a fiancée. I'm old, and I don't have a great-grandson. I'm anxious."

Kylee's eyes gleamed as she said, "Miss Alma is a good and nice-looking girl that comes from a good family. So, I want Bryson to meet her."

Audrey nodded in understanding what Kylee meant.

It was a blind date.

Nataly and Nell both complained to Audrey how their parents were desperate to marry them. Their parents thought that 25 was not a young age, so taking them on blind dates for various reasons regardless of the men's backgrounds, appearance, etc.

Audrey sympathized with Bryson.

...

Not long after, Everett brought in a girl in a pink dress.

She had beautiful features, her long black hair hanging down by her side. And she looked slender in the dress.

Alma looked around with her beautiful eyes. Then, she nodded to Kylee, saying in a soft voice, "Good evening, Madam Cordova."

At first glance, Alma was a well-educated lady with good manners.

Kylee looked at Alma with satisfaction, "Alright, come over and sit down."

Alma moved to Kylee's side and sat down.

"Madam Cordova, how are you feeling now?"

"I'm feeling well."

Women always felt threatened when facing other, more beautiful women.

Alma turned her eyes upon Audrey, who was also beside Kylee.

"Madam Cordova, who is this?"

Kylee held Audrey's hand, saying, "This is my granddaughter."

"Your granddaughter?" Alma frowned.

"That's right, granddaughter," Kylee said with a smile.

Alma was a little confused. As far as she knew, Kylee's granddaughter had died a few years ago. How could she have a granddaughter?

However, Kylee had a daughter, 'Was she the daughter of Kylee's daughter?'

Audrey said, "Miss Alma, you can call me Elliana."

Learning that Audrey was Kylee's granddaughter, Alma was reassured.

If she could get Audrey's approval, it would be a step closer to her marrying into the Cordova family.

"Then I'll call you Elliana," Alma said, "Madam Cordova, your granddaughter is ravishing."

"Sure enough. She's my granddaughter," Kylee said with pride.

"By the way, hasn't Mr. Bryson come home?" Alma tried to sound casual.

"He's on his way back."

Alma nodded, looking at the chessboard on the table, "Madam Cordova, were you playing gobang?"

"Yes, do you play gobang?"

"A little!"

Alma was a modest, courteous girl knowing what to say and do at any time. Audrey knew that Alma was an expert.

Kylee touched her temples. She was tired.

"Then you and Elliana can play for a while. I'll be watching."

"Alright!"

Alma smiled, sitting at where Kylee had sat.

Alma, "Is go (a game played with black and white pieces on a board of 361 crosses) okay?"

Audrey said, "Sure!"

Then, Audrey and Alma started to play.

Alma was proficient at go.

She suggested playing go because she wanted to win Audrey's favor by losing.

In the middle of the game, however, Alma discovered that Audrey was also an expert. Even if Alma did her best, she was still at a disadvantage.

Alma didn't take it lightly anymore. Instead, she went all out against Audrey.

It was a game between experts. Their focus was both on the chessboard.

And they didn't notice that Bryson had come into the living room.

Kylee was looking down at the chessboard when she noticed her grandson.

She smiled, about to say something.

Bryson placed his finger on his lips to stop her. So, Kylee remained silent.

Bryson and Kylee watched the game beside Audrey and Alma.

Audrey looked leisurely, while Alma would rack her brain from time to time, holding her piece and putting her chin on her hand.

Now came the crucial moment.

After Audrey, Alma was thinking about where to move.

However, taking a closer look at the chessboard, Alma sighed with relief.

She looked at Audrey with a tired face, "You are so good at this. I lost."

Audrey smiled and said, "Miss Alma let me win."

Alma looked embarrassed.

She took it lightly at the beginning, but later she found that she didn't rival Audrey.

When Alma saw Bryson, who was behind Audrey, she smiled, "Mr. Bryson, you are back?"

"Yes."

Audrey turned her head in surprise, seeing Bryson standing behind her.
