After returning to Peace City, Bryson sent Audrey and Harold home.
Audrey frowned as she looked out the window at the crossroads.
"Bryson, we are heading the wrong way. This is not the way to my house."
Bryson glanced at her without saying anything.
Audrey had nothing to say.
It was not the way to the Cordova Mansion either.
Where was he taking her?
About ten minutes later, the car went into a luxury community and then stopped in the underground
parking lot in the community.
Bryson got out of the car, walking to the other side of the car and opening the door.
"Get off the car!"
Audrey subconsciously got out of the car, "... Bryson, didn't you want to send us home? Why did you
bring us here?"
Harold also got out of the car and Kolby removed all of his luggage in the trunk.
Bryson held Audrey's hand and said, "Follow me!"
Audrey followed him, saying nothing.
She followed Bryson into the elevator blankly. After the elevator stopped on the 19th floor, Bryson took
Audrey to Room 1901. Then he took out a key from his pocket and opened the door.
"Everybody in!"
Audrey and Harold walked into the room at a loss. Kolby, who was following behind, moved all Harold's
luggage into the room.
As soon as they got into the room, they could see a wide balcony that could provide a wide vision.
Outside the balcony was the city-protecting park of Peace City.
It was evening, and the golden sun sprinkled on the window, covering the window with a golden veil,

It was a four-room house decorated in a pure European style. The furniture in it was also in European
style. There were sufficient appliances in the room and the white floor was as smooth as a mirror. It
seems someone had just cleaned it.
In the spacious living room, there were some boxes placing in the living room.
After taking a closer look, Audrey found that the contents in those boxes were actually her things.
Audrey looked at Bryson behind her.
"Bryson... What happened?"
Bryson handed the key to Audrey.
"You live here from now!"
Audrey still didn't understand, "What? We live here?"
"The house you lived in before is a one-room apartment. It is not suitable for two. This is a four-room
house, and its surrounding environment is elegant and convenient. Besides, it is close to University A.
So I bought it and you are the owner!"
Audrey was speechless.
"You bought it for me?"
"Yes!"
There was a sense of being kept arousing in Audrey's heart.
However, Bryson was really considerate. It would be really inconvenient for her and Harold to live in the
previous one-room apartment. She was planning to find another two-room apartment to live in
tomorrow, and then kept money to buy a house.
Even though she had found her younger brother, it would not be a home in real sense until they could
have a house of their own.
However, she only wanted to buy a house that was about 100 square meters. but where she was in
right now was at least 200 square meters.
She was only a lover of Bryson. It would be nothing for him to buy a house like this, but... according to
the location of this house, it would cost at least 10 million.
After thinking for a while, Audrey looked at Bryson seriously
"Bryson, I can't take such a precious house from you."
Bryson frowned at her words.
"The market value of this house should be around 18 million. My bank account has more than 1 million
now, and there are also 10 million of investment funds and stocks. This year's profit is expected to be
about 3 million, so totally it is 14 million. I will leave an IOU to you for the rest 4 million. My current
salary is half a million every month, but I will get more than that together with bonus. I will repay the 4
million in half a year with interest after considering our daily expense." Audrey said seriously after
making a thorough calculating.
Bryson's face darkened, "Do you have to be so even with me?"
Audrey sighed.
She held Bryson's hand and looked him in the eyes seriously.
"I know you are doing everything for me. But we have not married after all. I don't want to be
misunderstood by your family or anyone else that I am with you just because of your money. I want to
be with you fair and square. Can you understand me?"
Audrey and Bryson had totally different status. So it took great courage for her to decide to be with him.
It was the last way for her to maintain her dignity buying this house with her own money.
She wanted her relationship with Bryson to be as pure as possible.
When Bryson looked at Audrey in her eyes, he could see her determination and struggles. So he
nodded eventually.
"Okay, I agree."
Audrey heaved a sigh of relief.
"I'll write you an IOU now. Send me your account number later and I'll transfer the money to you."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Okay!"
When Audrey finished writing the IOU and handed it to Bryson, she felt the pressure in her heart
relieved a lot.
Then Bryson went back, leaving Audrey and Harold tidying their things in the new house.
Suddenly, she remembered that Maria had said that she would give her grandma's legacy to her. But
after leaving her contact information, a month had passed.
Audrey picked up her phone and called Maria after tidying her things up.
However, no one answered even after she called several times.
'So weird. Why does Maria not answer the phone?
...
The next morning.
Audrey and Harold went out together. After sending Harold to a nearby bookstore, Audrey went to the
law office.
After arriving at the office, she called Maria once again.
Finally, someone answered it.
"Hello, Ms. Maria, it's me, Audrey!" Audrey said.
"I know it was you." Maria's voice sounds like she was exhausted. "You called me last night, right? I
was outside last night without taking my phone, so I didn't answer."
"So I see."
"You want the old lady's belongings, right? Do you have time this afternoon? I'll give you the address.
Come and get it."
"Alright!"
Audrey made an appointment with Maria and wrote down the address before hanging up.
But Audrey wondered why she felt that Maria was not quite right when she called her.
'She is living a happy life with her family now, so she should be fine.'
"Perhaps I'm overthinking.'
