    He wasn''t afraid because theirboratory and experimental data were not in Meria.


    “We could just withdraw from the Meria 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 yed 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 speechless.


    The unconditional love that elderly folks had for the younger generation was something Audrey didn’t quite grasp—perhaps


    because she hadn''t reached that age yet.


    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?”


    “The child is with my husband''s family.” Audrey remained calm. “Mrs. Franklin, how did you find my address?”


    Carol looked serious. “You''re in Sheysea. There’s nothing | don’t know here! Audrey, the child should be Nathan''s, right?”


    “Mrs. Franklin, I’ve already told youst time that the child is not Nathan''s. | can cooperate with Nathan for a paternity test if


    necessary!” Audrey’s expression remainedposed. “Nathan and | have never been intimate, so how could he have a child


    with me?”Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.


    “Impossible. Anyone can tell the child’s age! Due to the abuse your birth mother suffered in Sayeno Town, you''ve always avoided


    contact with males! Even when you were in love with Nathan, you two didn’t progress


    further because of your psychological trauma!”


    Carol knew Audrey and Nathan’s past very well. “Moreover, you loved Nathan so much back then. Except for the time when you


    were drugged along with Nathan, who else could you have a child with?”


    “Mrs. Franklin, nothing happened between me and Nathan at that time. You’ve watched me grow up; you should know my


    character well. The reason | chose to divorce Nathan after that incident is because when he was drugged and clinging to me, he


    called out Amelia’s name.”


    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 drugged me again.” Audrey chuckled softly. “This time, it was to make me sleep 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 time when | was with


    someone else.”


    Carol looked incredulous.


    “Would you like a cup of tea?” Audrey offered calmly.
