    “Did Mr. Lambert Senior ask Mommy to join the Lambert Corporation?” Das knew Audrey always heeded George’s advice.


    “But Mommy''s favorite ce is theb. Are you not going to theb anymore?”


    Audrey pinched Das‘ cheek. “Mommy can handle both; you don’t need to worry about


    it,”


    The doorbell rang just then.N?velDrama.Org owns this text.


    Audrey thought it was Ryan returning, so she opened the door with Das in her arms.


    Nathan stood outside the door, observing Audrey cradling Das in his pajamas, his gaze lingering on the child.


    He remained silent for a moment.


    “Do you need something?” Audrey asked.


    Nathan snapped out of it. “I heard that


    you-


    He avoided talking about the casino, mindful of the child’s presence.


    He pursed his lips. “Let''s talk separately, away from the child.”


    Audrey put Das down. “The milk is done. Go sit on the couch and wait for Mommy.”


    Das looked at Nathan with a condescending gaze. He then nodded and walked toward


    the couch.


    “| can provide you with the child’s hair for a paternity test,” Audrey said.


    “I''m not here for that.” Nathan handed a credit card to Audrey. “I heard you went to the casino. If you’re short on money, you can


    tell me.”


    Looking at the card Nathan handed over, Audrey chuckled but didn’t take it. “I heard that the Franklin Group is having a hard time


    now, yet Mr. Franklin still has spare money to give me?”


    “You''re raising a child alone now, you probably need money for a lot of things-


    “I''m not short of money.”


    “Audrey! Can you stop being stubborn? How can a woman raise a child alone and not need money? What are your ns? You

    Nathan couldn’t contain his anger. “Just because someone called you a genius, really think you''re a genius? How do you n to


    support yourself and the child? Are going to let the child suffer with you?”


    Audrey raised her eyebrows, looking at Nathan as if he were a fool.


    She smiled faintly, not deigning to argue with an idiot. She simply said, “If you’re not here for the paternity test, then please


    leave. The best thing you can do to help is not disrupt our lives.”

    At the same time, Ryan, dressed casually and carrying a thermos bag, stepped out of the


    elevator.


    Ryan’s eyebrows furrowed when he saw Nathan, revealing his evident displeasure.


    “How did you find out about this ce?” Ryan asked.


    Nathan tightly clenched the card, reluctantly greeting, “Mr. Lambert.”


    “Now that you’re engaged to Amelia, don’t get involved with Audrey anymore. There are already so many paparazzi watching


    you and Amelia, don’t drag Audrey into the news again.” Ryan''s calm tone carried a sense of authority.


    “| understand,” Nathan responded, then turned to Audrey. “I know you don’t want to see me, but | owe you more than just an


    apology. | still want to make it up to you if there’s a chance. Just give me a call if you need anything. Please take this.”


    Nathan handed the card to Audrey again.


    “Take this inside first.” Ryan handed the thermos bag to Audrey, then turned to Nathan as he entered through the door.


    “Audrey doesn’t need money; what you’re doing is just trying to alleviate your own guilt —it’s unnecessary.”


    “Mr. Lambert, it’s my fault for letting Audrey down, it’s only right for you to me me.” Nathan ced the card on the shoe


    cab outside.


    “I''ll leave the card here, consider it a token of my sincerity.”
