Chapter 259


    At this moment, Ryan was opening up his heart to Audrey.


    “Does that also apply to Lily and Das?” Audrey’s voice trembled slightly as she spoke.


    Perhaps she was still recovering from theck of oxygen moments ago, but her breathing was in


    disarray.


    Thinking of the two adorable little ones–of Lily’s bright smile, and Das‘ tense expression when


    looking at him, Ryan replied, “I’m not that crazy to feel jealous of my own children. “I see.” Audrey


    smiled and pushed Ryan gently. “You go out first. I’ll change ande out.“” Ryan embraced Audrey


    once more and kissed her before picking up his sses and reluctantly leaving the dressing room.


    He pushed open the door leading to the dressing room balcony and stood outside.


    He then put on his sses and lit a cigarette. He needed something in his mouth to prevent him from


    wanting to kiss Audrey again.


    His phone vibrated in his pocket–it was Daniel calling. The boiling desire in his eyes gradually


    subsided.


    He frowned and answered, “Speak.”


    Still feeling her heart racing, Audrey finished changing and picked up her phone to check the time when


    she noticed George’s calling in.


    The exhrating buzz that lingered in her mind quickly subsided.


    She cleared her throat and answered the phone, “Hello, Mr. Lambert-


    “Call me Grandpa from now on,” George interrupted. “Tomorrow, we will announce to the public that


    you are Wanda’s adopted daughter.”


    Audrey’s palms tightened, a warmth spreading through her heart.


    “Okay. I understand, Grandpa.” Audrey gently called out, unable to suppress the smile on her lips.


    “Tomorrow, I’ll have Ryan pick you up, and you’ll go to the hotel together.” George’s tone


    softened.

    “Wanda and the two children will stay at home. Outsiders know that Wanda hasn’t been well these


    years and has been focusing on her health in a sterile environment. So, her absence won’t be


    surprising.


    “As for not letting the two children go–firstly, we need them to keep Wandapany. And secondly,


    there will be journalists present tomorrow; I don’t want the Franklin family to get any ideas when they


    see the children.”


    Until now, George still believed that Das and Lily were Nathan’s children.


    Although Audrey wasn’t worried about the Franklin family having any ill intentions toward the children,


    she still wanted them to apany Wanda, so she agreed: “Okay, I understand.


    “I know you’ve participated in many conferences andpetitions and always performed well, but I still


    want to remind you not to be nervous.


    “You’re my granddaughter, Audrey–the founder of Evergreen Biotech, the future sessor of the


    Lambert Corporation, and you should stand above everyone else.”


    Audrey saw Ryan smoking on the balcony when she came out of the dressing room. She slung her bag


    over her shoulder and said to George, “I understand, Grandpa.”

    After hanging up the phone, Audrey looked at Ryan, who had put out his cigarette and approached her.


    She told him, “Grandpa said tomorrow he’ll have you send me to the hotel where the banquet will be


    held.”


    George’s birthday banquet would take ce at Jacinda Hotel, a five–star hotel under the Lambert


    Corporation, not far from Audrey’s ce.


    “Grandpa?” Ryan caught on. “Did Mr. Lambert Senior ask you to change how you address him?”


    Audrey’s eyes sparkled as she nodded.


    Ryan tucked Audrey’s long hair behind her ear. “I’ll send you back first. I have some things to attend to,


    so I won’t be able to have lunch with you. I’lle over to your ce tonight.”
