Chapter 18-1
Howard, Vivian, David, and the group of Darling brothers sat on the sofa in the living room. David took a sip of
coffee and then spoke. "I've ctoday to see Miss Darling."
Howard and Vivian exchanged glances. They assumed he was referring to Audrey. Since Danielle had only
returned recently, they didn’t think he’d have any sort of dealings with her.
Vivian asked hesitantly, "Do you mean you're here to see Audrey? We saw the news about the two of you. Our
families are indeed betrothed, but..."
Vivian didn’t get a chance to finish her sentence. "David, you're here," Audrey said sweetly as she cinto the
living room and looked shyly at him.
Joseph decided to speak up then. He was slightly daunted by David's vibe, but he felt it was necessary to make
things clear. "Mr. Charrington, are you and Audrey seeing each other?"
He hadn't minced his words, and for a moment everyone looked to David with their breaths hitched, including
Audrey, who had an expectant look on her face.

He continued to explain, "She wasn’t paying attention and bumped intoat the hospital entrance." His eyes
remained cold and indifferent, while his lips curled slightly into a seemingly mocking smile.
Nathan added, "The reports online are baseless. The person who first broke the fake news has been dealt with.
As for who instigated that person, I'm sure Miss Darling knows more about that." He looked meaningfully at
Audrey then.
Everyone around them raised an eyebrow. Even Danielle looked up, a little surprised.
Audrey's face paled as she bit her lower lip in disbelief and humiliation. "David, | hadn't planned to fall down. |
didn’t expect that someone would photograph us at that moment and even upload it online," she said in a
quivering voice.
Audrey then lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry." Large drops of tears rolled from her doe eyes as if in
indignation.
David watched Audrey carefully but didn’t reveal any change in his emotions. Howard and Vivian inevitably felt a
heartache for their daughter, but they suspected that David hadn't dropped by just for this matter.
