Chapter 273


    Hugo suddenly felt lost, his throat tightening. “Audrey…”


    “Don’t worry, we were once friends. I won’t have any Improper thoughts toward you. I just don’t want


    Grandpa to worry about my lifelong affairs.” Audrey smiled faintly.


    “Besides, if there were anything between us, the father of my child probably wouldn’t be too happy,”


    Ryan’s possessiveness was almost out of control. She felt it keenly every time they were together.


    “The father of your child?” Hugo was momentarily bewildered but then quickly understood. “I thought


    the father was-”

    “Nathan?” Audrey shook her head with a smile. “It’s not him.”


    “Well, congrattions!” Hugo was relieved. “Although I almost offered myself for consideration just


    now, I’m willing to give my blessings if you’re happy.”


    “Thank you.” Audrey raised her ss.


    She was indeed happy now, feeling like everything was a dream.


    George had already sat down at the head of the table with his cane. Edward then came to Audrey’s


    side, nodding to Hugo in greeting.


    He smiled at Audrey and said, “Ms. Audrey, Mr. Lambert Senior would like you toe over. He will


    formally introduce you to everyone in a little while.”


    Audrey set her ss down and said to Hugo, “I’ll go over first.”


    Hugo nodded, watching Audrey walk over to George’s side. After that, he immediately left the banquet


    hall to make a call, intending to stop Carol froming over.


    But before he could, Carol’s call came in.


    “Hello Hugo, we’ve already arrived at the entrance. Where are you?” Carol asked cheerfully.


    Hugo hadn’t expected Nathan and Carol to arrive so quickly.


    He had promised Carol to bring them over today, so he could only end the call and go out to greet


    them.


    As a legal professional, Hugo naturally knew about the affairs between the Franklin family and


    Evergreen Biotech.


    Chapter 273


    Everyone thought the Franklin Group had gotten a great deal at that time, but unexpectedly, Charles


    had stolen the form from Evergreen Biotech behind their backs.


    ording to the contract, Franklin Group had topensate Evergreen Blotech an amount of over 30


    billion.


    The Franklin Group promised to repurchase all forms with financial support from the Gough family,


    which resolved thepensation Issue–barely managing to save the Franklin Group.


    However, the Franklin Group still suffered heavy losses. If they could receive support, from! the


    Lambert Corporation to revitalize their electronics business, the group could potentially recover in a few


    years.


    Hugo agreed to help because of the longstanding friendship between the two families and his


    upbringing alongside Nathan.


    But circumstances have changed now that Audrey was here.


    Moreover, Edward had a respectful attitude toward Audrey just now. He wasn’t sure if Nathan, who had


    regained his memory, would cause trouble.


    Hugo stepped out of the hotel and saw Carol and Nathan, who had reluctant expressions.


    He spoke up once he approached, “Audrey is also here, Nathan. When you go inter, try not to cause


    trouble, and don’t get too close to Audrey.


    “If something goes wrong and George’s birthday banquet is disrupted, it might not be good for the


    Franklin Group.”
