He wasn’t afraid because their laboratory and experimental data were not in Meplaria.
“We could just withdraw from the Meplaria market if necessary” were Audrey's exact words. Audrey turned the
TV off and looked at the photos Lily had sent her over the past few days.
Lily had been with Wanda and George recently.
After the three of them played at an amusement park together, George decided to build an amusement park for
Lily because she liked it so much.
Audrey sighed. She intended to persuade him out of it, but George's insistence and Wanda's agreement left her

However, she couldn't argue against it, so she could only watch helplessly as George prepared to build the
amusement park.
Just then, the doorbell rang and Audrey got up to answer it.
She was surprised to see Carol standing outside but still greeted her politely. “Mrs. Franklin.”
Carol pushed past Audrey and walked inside. “Where's the child? Where are you hiding the child?”
Audrey immediately called Nathan after seeing Carol pacing around her house in high heels, looking
for the child.
Nathan, who was anxiously dealing with the mess caused by the Murray Group, saw the unfamiliar number and
didn’t even answer the call.
After searching through room after room without finding the child, Carol approached Audrey angrily and
demanded, “Where are you hiding the child?”

so how could he have a child with me?”

Audrey's voice remained calm. “You're right, | did love him at that time, but with my psychological trauma, |
would never willingly engage with another man.”
Carol nodded.
“However, Nathan druggedagain.” Audrey chuckled softly. “This time, it was to makesleep with another
man, so | would be too ashamed to cling to him. You can ask Nathan or Charles, they're both aware. The child is
from that twhen | was with someone else.”
Carol looked incredulous.
“Would you like a cup of tea?” Audrey offered calmly.
