A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 188

Toby looked at Wendy in surprise.

"What did you say? Quit the entertainment industry?" Wendy had just won the Golden Television Award, and she could be considered a very popular star. If she quit now, all her previous efforts would be wasted.

In addition, Wendy had tried so hard to convince her parents to agree with her entrance to the entertainment industry, but now she wanted to quit voluntarily.

Of course, it was not from her bottom heart to quit. After all... she had fought for so long and even won the Golden Television Award.

However, her current reputation had gone so bad that even if she would return to the entertainment industry in the future, she could not turn it back.

She had tried whatever she could to prevent Toby from hearing the breaking news that defamed her. That was the reason why Toby was so surprised when he heard that she was going to quit the entertainment industry.

There were tears in Wendy's eyes, showing her reluctance to quit.

"Since I entered the entertainment industry, I have caused so many troubles to you and our company. Besides, I am going to marry Mr. Julian in the future. I don't think his family will like a wife who always appears in public."

Toby looked at his sensible daughter and gently patted her shoulder, "I'm very happy that you can think this way."

"But are we going to let the eleven patents slip away?" Wendy bit her lower lip. "I really can't accept it. They should belong to our company."

Toby sneered.

"So what if they have got the eleven patents? Even if they start producing, they still can't develop new and better products. The customers will return to us sooner or later!"

Wendy's worry was relieved a little.

"It's true, but this event has brought heavy loss to our company."

"What it takes is just money. It is just a matter of time that what belongs to our Munn Group returns to us. For those that were robbed by the Stanton Group, we will take them back sooner or later."

"Yes, we will!"

At this time, the telephone in Toby's office rang again.

"What's it?"

His secretary said, "Mr. Toby, the front desk just called me that a lawyer called Audrey wanted to see you!"

"Audrey, how dare she come here!" Wendy said in anger, "She's too arrogant. Keep her out."

"Let her in!" Toby said in a low voice.

When Wendy heard what her father said, her eyes widened in disbelief.

"What? Dad? Why did you let Audrey in? She is the attorney of the Stanton Group. I suggest you not see her since she is such a jinx."

"I want to see if she is really a resourceful lawyer!" Toby objected.

...

Soon after that, Audrey was guided into the office by Toby's secretary.

As they passed by the Munn Group's chambers, Audrey felt as if her experience here was something that happened a lifetime ago.

She never thought that she would be here again as... a lawyer.

It was when she was standing in front of Toby's office that Audrey finally felt that she had really returned here.

She straightened her back and looked at Toby's darkening face. He was not far away from her.

Her lips curled up as she walked into Toby's office.
