Out of the teahouse, Harold specifically called Audrey to report on the results of his meeting with Cane.
Hearing Harold's description, Audrey sighed and said, "How could he be so shameless? It's a pity that I didn't see the scene."
"If you want to see him, I can show you another day," Harold joked.
"Why should I torture my eyes?"
Harold was speechless.
He asked, "Can your brother's eyes be tortured?"
"Not my eyes. Of course, I don't care."
Harold showed an incomprehensible expression.
He thought, 'She must not be my biological sister!'
He changed the topic. "By the way, I got a message that Brisa has just negotiated a big deal after joining the Cordova Group."
"So what?"
When Harold heard Audrey's indifferent tone, he said excitedly, "Isn't Brisa arranged by Caroline to join the Cordova Group? Now that Brisa has negotiated a big deal, Caroline will appreciate her even more! She must have an ulterior motive for joining the Cordova Group. She's your rival in love! Don't you feel your position is in jeopardy?"
"Harold, you should study hard at your age. You are a child. Keep your hands off our affairs."

"I'm already twenty-one years old. I'm no longer a child."
Audrey laughed. "You're twenty-one years old. You are no longer a child. Then get yourself a girlfriend. When you are in love and understand the feelings between a man and a woman, you can talk to me about it."
Harold was anxious. "Audrey! Why do you always misunderstand what I mean? I am worried about you! Brisa is not a nice person. Her family and the Cordova family are well-matched in social and economic status. What's more, she is beautiful and capable. Aren't you afraid Bryson might change his mind?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I believe Bryson!" she said.
"You trust him too much! Audrey, you have to be a little bit crisis-aware. Bryson is being nice to you right now. But Caroline doesn't want you to be together. She is the obstacle between you two. Too many couples in ancient and modern times were forced to break up because of their families!"
"Alright, my cell phone is running out of juice. I'll hang up."
"You're talking nonsense! You charge the cell phone every night. When you go out in the morning, it must be fully charged. You lied to me! If you didn't charge last night, your cell phone would no longer be able to get through."
Audrey hung up decisively. Before hanging up, Harold was still nagging her to be crisis conscious.
Audrey's face turned gloomy.
Although she kept telling Harold that she didn't care, how could she not care about Brisa's existence?
But what could she do? Now Brisa was in the Cordova Group. She couldn't let Bryson drive Brisa away. If she did, she was afraid Caroline would hate her more. It wouldn't be good for her and Bryson's future.

She didn't care much about it at first. But Harold's mention made her feel uncomfortable. Her mind was full of images of Bryson and Brisa together.
She shook her head and dispelled the images in her mind.
She told herself, "Don't think about it. Work hard first!"
...
Although she said to work hard first, Audrey was distracted all morning. She almost made a mistake when calculating the data. Fortunately, she checked it carefully before sending it and found the error.
By the time she finished her work, it was already close to noon.
Bryson used to call Audrey around half past eleven and ask her to have lunch.
Even if he couldn't have lunch with her, he would call her around half past eleven and ask her not to wait for him.
However, it was almost twelve o'clock.
Audrey picked up her cell phone and looked carefully at her call records. Except for a few customers who called in the morning to ask some questions, there were no other call records.
Therefore, Bryson had not called her yet.
Because of this, she felt a little empty.
She closed the folder in front of her fretfully.
It was all to blame for Harold calling her and telling her some unfounded guesses. Now she was so upset, and she was even flustered because Bryson didn't call.
The reason for all this was that she liked Bryson and cared about him.
She took a deep breath.
Bryson told her to believe him and don't doubt him. But... in this situation, she couldn't do it.
Brenda patted Audrey on the shoulder from behind.
"Audrey, would you like to have lunch with me?"
Audrey shook her head faintly.
"No. You can go and eat it yourself."
The law firm was almost empty, but Audrey still sat at the table impatiently.
Thinking for a moment, she took out her cell phone and was about to call Bryson.
Just as she was about to dial out, her fingers retracted.

She thought, 'What if Bryson calls suddenly?'
After repeating this action three times, Audrey couldn't help but dial out with anxiety.
Audrey was thinking about what she should say after Bryson got on the phone, and then she heard a busy tone.
She was a little surprised.
Audrey thought, 'Is he on the phone with someone else? '
She dialed several times, but it was always a busy signal. Audrey continued to call angrily.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter a while, it was no longer a busy tone. Audrey felt as if she had won the first prize in the lottery.
However, she waited for a long time, and no one answered the call.
Audrey's heart became heavy.
Countless speculations emerged in her mind. She thought, 'Why doesn't Bryson answer the phone? What is he doing now? Is it inconvenient to answer the phone because there are people around him?'
The phone was hung up. Audrey dialed out again.
It still rang for a long time.
When Audrey finally couldn't wait any longer, someone answered the phone.
Audrey frowned.
"Hello. Is this Ms. Audrey?" A male voice came from the phone.
Audrey heard that it wasn't Bryson's voice. It seemed to be Melvin's.
"Is this Melvin?"
"Yes, it is me."
She thought, 'Is Bryson out of the office? '
Audrey asked, "Why did you answer the phone? Where is Bryson?"
"Mr. Bryson is still in a meeting. When the meeting is over, I'll tell him you called!"
It turned out that Bryson was in a meeting.
Audrey was relieved.
"It's okay. I'll call back in a while. You don't have to tell him."
"The meeting is over!" Melvin's voice faded away. He handed the phone to Bryson and said to him, "Mr. Bryson, it is Ms. Audrey."

"Hello." The familiar deep male voice came from the other end of the phone.
