    Chapter 48


    Audrey clenched her fists.


    “I''m not considering it at the moment.”


    “Rumors are spreading wildly on the Inte. Your current notoriety has affected Ryan in the Industry.*George frowned. “Do you


    wish to drag the Lambert family into it eventually?”


    “| never thought about it like that...


    “To protect Wanda, I’ve always imed you''re a rtive from Ryan’s original family.”


    George finally turned to look at Audrey, his deste eyes steely. “If Ryan continues helping you, it will arouse suspicion. Please


    don’t bother him or contact anyone rted to the Lambert family again.” Audrey swallowed her words and agreed, “Okay, | get it.


    Don’t worry, it won’t happen again.” Although Ryan helped her of his own will, she had epted his assistance. It was


    irrefutable. Even if George hadn’te to her, she didn’t dare see Ryan again after what happened that night.


    Seeing that Audrey understood, George didn’t say more. He didn’t mind that she wasn’t moving ‘abroad.


    As a condition for canceling the marriage with the Shaw family, he would send Ryan abroad to settle the cooperation rights for


    thepany. Thepany’s business would trap him there for a while, leaving him no time to care about Audrey.


    “The password is six zeros.” George handed her a card from his pocket. He continued, “I will settle the matter on the inte for


    you and suppress the hype.”


    “Mr. Lambert,” Audrey interrupted slowly. “I will resolve the issue myself. The rumors should subside after the broadcast of


    tonight’s program. | promise not to implicate the Lambert family.”


    She pushed the card back to him. “I can’t ept your money. The Lambert family has helped me a lot over the years. I’m


    grateful. | wish you and your family health and peace. Goodbye!”


    As he was her biological grandfather, Audrey’s well wishes were genuine.


    She got out of the car and closed the door, then watched the ck car leave.


    Watching Audrey in the rearview mirror, Edward said to George, “Mr. Lambert, are we really not suppressing the hype on the


    Inte? Ms. Yeomans is currently the target of public outrage.”Content provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    Having worked for George for decades, Edward was well aware of Audrey’s background.


    “Since she doesn’t want the help, let her handle it herself. As long as Ryan and the Lambert family


    aren’tinvolved, let her be at the center of it all.”


    George closed his eyes. Despite his callous tone, his gaze wasplex.


    Audrey''s young features resembled Wanda’s, though their personalities and demeanors were a world


    apart.


    George was old when he had be a father to Wanda, so he had always doted on her. His.


    overprotection had raised a kind and innocent person who was ignorant of the world. She was easily


    deceived.


    On the contrary, Audrey’s gaze was gentle yet firm. He found it familiar, like his wife’s in her youth.


    If Audrey was Wanda’s legitimate daughter, George would have adored and trained her up like he had with Ryan.


    Unfortunately, he wasn’t so magnanimous that he would ept a child of the bastard who had humiliated, abused, and harmed


    his precious daughter.


    George looked out the window.


    As long as his precious daughter wasn’t involved, he couldn''t care less about Audrey''s life.


    Upon arriving at the restaurant at 7:30 pm, Daphne turned to ask the group, “Why don’t we sit in the hall? The second half of


    ‘Looking For Family’ will be on tonight!”
