Chapter 460
Bryson was about to move forward again, but Audrey held his face this time, preventing him from getting too close to her.
Bryson frowned, wanting to take her hand away. But Audrey backed away to avoid him.
"Audrey, you've changed!" Bryson looked at her seriously.
Audrey looked at him in amusement.
"Why?"
"You never moved away when I wanted to kiss you, but now, you..." Bryson indicated that she just avoided his kiss.
Audrey rolled her eyes and smiled.
"Bryson Cordova!" Audrey called Bryson by his full name.
Bryson added, "Look, you're calling me by my full name, not Bryson or darling anymore!"
Audrey was lost for words.
She really wanted to smash his head with the laptop beside his hand right now if it was not a crime.
Audrey glared at him. "Bryson, if you continue doing this, I will kick you out of the house right now."
His employees would be shocked if they saw him now.
Bryson stopped being artificial and smiled. "Okay. Let's be serious."
The anger on Audrey's face disappeared as she asked seriously, "You said that you knew the inside story between the Randall Group and Fida Trading Company, right? Tell me about it."
"Are you sure you don't want me to kiss you?"
"Audrey Koch!" Audrey was already gnashing her teeth. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
Bryson said with a smile, "Indeed Fida had a partnership with Randall before. Fida lent money to Randal, but..."
Audrey tilted her head. "But what?"
"But that money was about a project that the two companies had initiated. The project had failed before it even started. So they both couldn't get back the money. However, later Fida cooperated with another company on another project. Randall wanted to leverage this opportunity to get the money, but Fida refused, on the grounds that the project had collapsed."
Audrey understood something...
So it turned out that this case was because the Randall Group wanted Fida to pay off debts. It had nothing to do with the previous cooperation between them. So she couldn't find any evidence.
There was no hope of winning this case at all.
Audrey thought for a moment before asking Bryson.
"What is the failed project?"
"Do you know about Plan S?"
Audrey nodded.
"I've heard of it from other senior lawyers." Audrey's eyes widened. "Could it be that Randall was the company that Fida cooperated with before?"
Bryson touched her face with appreciation. "That's right."
Plan S was the bidding project of the government. Its main task was to produce important scientific research products for the government. One of the projects in Peace City was about the chip used in national aircraft carriers. Randall was a chip company, and one of the lands under Fida was a good choice for this chip development. Therefore, the two companies reached an agreement.
However, there was a sudden political change and the project was aborted. The money Randall had borrowed from Fida was also lost.
Now the government wanted to restart this project. But it chose the J Group because the J Group enjoyed better chip technology. Fida took money from the J Group and joined the chip development.
The Randall Group wanted to get their money back as they thought Fida didn't start the project after taking the money. Besides, Fida built their current base on the foundation of the original land. The Randall Group felt that it was a loss.
But how could Fida agree?
That project was belonging to the government, a secret one. Neither of them dared to talk about it. That was why they could only argue about the previous project.
This case was tricky because neither of them dared to talk about national secrets even if Randall still wanted to take back the money. No one could not tell the truth at all.
So the Randall Group couldn't take back the money at all.
Audrey felt helpless.
"So it's impossible to win this case!"
Bryson affectionately touched her nose.
"I had thought this case was about the project when Jean asked for your help. But you insisted on taking it back then! I couldn't stop you."
Audrey's ears drooped.
"I didn't think it would be this kind of thing. Besides, she is your biological sister. We will inevitably contact each other in the future. If I didn't take it, how awkward would it be if we saw each other in the future?" Audrey muttered.
Bryson smiled at her.
"You were worried about this? You just need to consider it after we get married, not now."
Audrey glared at him.
"You didn't even remind me back then."
Bryson said impatiently, "I already said no to you. But you insisted."
"If you could be more determined, perhaps... I wouldn't have to take on this case!"
Bryson didn't know what to say.
He once read a line in the news.
It said that when a woman behaved unreasonably, one's understanding of women would be refreshed.
He had never thought that Audrey would have something to do with the word unreasonable. His girl was not that type.
But now he found out that he was wrong. And he finally knew what an unreasonable woman looked like.
She wouldn't reason with you at all.
Bryson looked at Audrey with a dumbfounded expression.
Bryson was the type of man who was cautious and hid his emotions well. But now all his emotions can be seen on his face. Audrey was a smart girl. She could tell what Bryson was thinking at a glance.
She narrowed her eyes.
"I know what you are thinking. You have never seen me being unreasonable before. So, now you are scared, right?" Audrey directly pointed out what Bryson was thinking!
Bryson wasn't that silly. He immediately denied it. "Of course not!"
Audrey snorted.
"No?" Audrey pointed at Bryson's forehead and said word by word, "But you're telling me with your expression that you are scared!"
Bryson didn't know what to say.
Seeing that Bryson was silent, Audrey stood up and walked out of the dining room.
"Well, since you've had dinner, you can leave now. Remember to close the door of my house when you leave!"
