Chapter 294
After escorting Audrey to the bedroom door, Ryan’s gaze lingered on the corner of her lips. His Adam’s apple rolled slightly.
Mindful of being in the family residence, he refrained from kissing her and simply said, Rest well. We’ll be busy starting tomorrow.”
Audrey nodded and stepped inside. “Okay then, goodnight. You should rest early too.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Ryan suddenly pushed her inside and joined her in the room. He seized the back of Audrey’s head, kissing her.
The door was open, and they were in Lambert Residence. Audrey’s eyes widened in panic, attempting to push him away.
The kiss was brief.
He lowered his head to look at Audrey, whose ears were now bright red, and murmured, Goodnight.”
“There’s surveillance in the hallway!” Audrey’s heart raced, fearing being discovered by
George.
Since getting Wanda back, surveillance cameras had been installed throughout the corridors.
This was partly because George feared Wanda might disappear again. It was also out of concern for Wanda’s mental state in case anything happened.
“The surveillance cameras on the second floor encountered a problem this afternoon. The technician won’t be able to fix it until tomorrow.”
Ryan then stepped out of the bedroom. “See you tomorrow morning.“.
Audrey held onto the door tightly, nodding. “See you tomorrow morning.”
Closing the door behind her, Audrey saw the two sleeping children on the bed. She kissed each of them on the cheek before taking her pajamas and heading to the bathroom to freshen up.
Then she lay down, embracing the two children.
The next day, Audrey changed into professional attire. She wore a white blouse with a black collar under a knee–length black fitted dress.
Around her neck was a simple diamond necklace. On her wrist, she wore a leather strap diamond watch, exuding competence and elegance.
With her slender figure, Audrey particularly stood out in high heels, emanating a strong sense of authority.
When Audrey and Ryan appeared together at the entrance of the Lambert Corporation building, it stirred discussions among the employees arriving for work.
Watching the two of them enter the CEO’s private elevator, followed by Julian, Yvonne, and Peter, some nosy employees cautiously snapped photos with their phones and shared them in the work group chat. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“Oh my God, who’s that next to Mr. Lambert? Did Julian get fired? Did Mr. Lambert get a new assistant?”
“I don’t know if you guys saw the news yesterday. It said that Mr. Lambert Senior announced his granddaughter’s return at the banquet. It might be his granddaughter!”
“But many media outlets also reported that Mr. Lambert brought a woman who’s not his fiancée to the banquet yesterday. Maybe that’s her.”
“It might be the same person!”
Countless work groups at the Lambert Corporation exploded with excitement because of the photo showing Ryan and Audrey together.
“Latest news! The technical equipment for the Vice Chairman’s office, which Julian had arranged, has already been installed. The computers are being tested as well. The staff for the Vice Chairman’s secretariat are also in place. The Vice Chairman is coming!” “It’s definitely Mr. Lambert Senior’s granddaughter!”
