Chapter 43
Hearing Kylee's words, Audrey frowned slightly.
Nell replied with a smile, "No, I'm still single. I'm 25 years old this year."
Kylee held Nell's hand and looked at her. Nell was cute and winsome. Kylee couldn't help but develop an increasing fondness for her.
"Then let me get you a boyfriend, okay?"
"Alright!" Nell agreed without hesitation.
Audrey's heart skipped a beat.
Judging from the way Kylee treated Nell, she must like Nell very much. She wanted to be the matchmaker, but who would she set her up with?
A tall figure appeared in Audrey's mind.
Could it be ... Bryson?
For some reason, Audrey felt there was a plunging sensation in her stomach.
After that, Audrey was not in the mood to pay attention to what they talked about.
Not long after, the guard outside the ward respectfully called out.
"Mr. Bryson."
Audrey subconsciously looked at the door.
Bryson, dressed in formal clothes, walked in.
The coldness on Bryson face dissipated when he saw the girl in the ward.
He directly walked towards Audrey.
"How do you feel this morning?"
Audrey was touched. "Much better."
Although her stomach was still aching when she ate, it was much better.
Bryson nodded.
Audrey said, "I'm well enough to be discharged from the hospital this afternoon!"
"What did the doctor say?" Bryson was asking Kylee.
"The doctor said that she should stay in the hospital for one more day!" Kylee replied.
"Then stay for one more day and leave the hospital tomorrow!"
Audrey said anxiously, "But I have to appear in court tomorrow morning. I'm afraid I won't be able to make it in time if I wait for the doctor to discharge me."
"Your health is the most important. Stay here until tomorrow." His tone made the words indisputable.
Audrey couldn't say anything.
Kylee gently persuaded Audrey. "Alright, Elliana. Listen to your brother and don't leave the hospital until tomorrow!"
Audrey said nothing.
What else could she say?
She shouldn't have eaten so much last night. This was too bad. She hoped she wouldn't be late tomorrow morning.
At lunchtime, Kylee suddenly suggested, "Bryson, it's already time for lunch. Eat out with Nell. When you come back, take something for Elliana and I. Elliana's food must be easy to digest."
"Alright!"
Bryson stood up.
Nell smiled and waved at Audrey. "Elliana, I'll go eat first!"
Nell walked out, followed by Bryson.
Before Bryson left, Kylee grabbed Bryson and whispered something in his ear. However, he frowned and glanced at Audrey before turning around and leaving.
...
Audrey couldn't say anything but she felt more suffocated and even sullen.
When Kylee was talking to Audrey, Audrey was absent-minded.
...
An hour later, Bryson and Nell returned. Bryson carried two portions of food, one for Kylee and one for Audrey.
Bryson set up the dining table for Audrey and placed the food in front of her.
Kylee was hungry, so she picked up her chopsticks and started eating.
Bryson prepared the dishes for Audrey and sat on the sofa.
Nell smiled as she looked at Bryson.
"Mr. Bryson, we've agreed that you will be interviewed by our newspaper. I'll call you in two days."
"Alright!" Bryson did not refuse.
Audrey found they seemed to get along well with each other. The food in her mouth tasted like wax.
She frantically wondered what Bryson and Nell talked about when they had lunch together.
Were they... were they interested in each other? Did they intend to date with each other?
However, she did not dare to ask.
Because she was in no position to ask.
Bryson's voice sounded in the ward.
"Elliana, why aren't you eating? Isn't the food delicious?"
Audrey suddenly was startled out of her reverie.
She hurriedly shook her head, "No, no."
Bryson's eyes narrowed slightly.
...
Kylee had the habit of taking a nap. After lunch, the maid accompanied her back to the Cordova Mansion.
Nell was also summoned back to the newspaper by a phone call.
After they left, Bryson received a phone call from the company and went outside to answer it, leaving Audrey alone in the ward.
Audrey was even gloomier but she didn't know what to do about it.
At this time, her phone rang.
She glanced at the name displayed on the screen and didn't even want to pick it up. However, after thinking for a while, she still answered it.
"Hello."
"Hey, Elliana, are you alone in your ward?" Nell's voice suddenly became alert.
Audrey's heart sank.
Nell was wary of Bryson like this, didn't she... feel something for Bryson....
However, Nell was her best friend. If she could be with Bryson, she should bless her.
"I'm the only one in the ward."
"That's good!" Nell heaved a sigh of relief.
Audrey tightened her grip on the phone. "What happened?"
"Let me apologize to you first."
"What for?"
"Well, I went out with Bryson today. He was too scary. He threatened me by saying that he would close my newspaper if I didn't tell him about your preferences and your past!"
Audrey couldn't say anything for a while.
Then she asked nervously, "What did you tell him?"
"I told him everything. I told him about your previous relationship with Julian, too."
...
"Did you tell him that thing?" Audrey asked carefully.
Nell knew what Audrey was talking about.
"Don't worry. I didn't tell him about that."
Before Audrey could say anything, Nell chuckled and said, "Well, I've already told you the truth, so don't blame me. I have to go back and prepare to interview Bryson."
...
Such a fellow who betrayed her friend for her job!
However, for some reason, after Nell finished the sentence, all the depression inside Audrey disappeared, and she felt relaxed.
People were most likely to be tired when their minds were relaxed.
It was time to take a nap. She closed her eyes and was ready to sleep for a while.
At this time, Bryson walked in from outside after he finished his phone call. He saw her, thinking she was sleeping.
