Vengeful Hearts Return Novel by Susan Clyde

Audrey’s words sent a shock through Dylan, His pupils trembling. He stared at Audrey, his eyes filled with darkness.

“You say you’re not Audrey, but why do you have the same habits? You dislike onions and garlic, refuse to peel shrimp yourself, and love orange juice. You both avoid the food at the bottom of the plate,” Dylan said coldly, stepping closer to Audrey. His piercing gaze seemed to dissect her.

“If you’re not Audrey, then how do you explain all this?” Dylan demanded, his intense presence frightening.

Audrey felt a flicker of fear. She usually remained calm in any situation, but now she frowned. She hadn’t realized she and the original host shared the same habits.

Seeing Audrey’s silence, Dylan’s expression darkened. He said in a chilling voice, “If you’re using this excuse to leave me, forget it. As long as you’re Audrey, I won’t let you go!”

Audrey narrowed her eyes, glaring at Dylan. “Mr. Clifford, I’m not her. The Audrey who might have loved you is dead. I belong to myself!” she declared firmly.

Dylan scrutinized Audrey, trying to figure out her game, but he couldn’t understand.

“Brian, let’s go!” Audrey called, quickly exiting the room with Brian. She didn’t look back at Dylan and missed the anger in his eyes.

Outside Natural Heaven, Brian looked up at Audrey and softly asked, “Audrey, is he and Lucas’s dad?”

“I don’t know, maybe,” Audrey replied, frowning. “Do you like him?”

Brian shook his head. “If you don’t like him, neither do we.”

Audrey smiled lightly and ruffled Brian’s hair.

Richard stepped forward, saying respectfully to Audrey and Brian, “Ms. Hernandez, Mr. Clifford wants us to take you back to the hotel!”

“No need, thanks!” Audrey glanced at Richard lightly and then turned to leave with Brian.

Richard watched Audrey and Brian get into the taxi, then shouted for someone to follow them from behind to keep them safe, before returning to the private room to

report.

“Mr. Clifford, Ms. Hernandez and her son took a cab back. I’ve got someone tailing them,” Richard reported.Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Great, any news on what you were looking into?” Dylan asked.

“Nope. I’ve tried everything, but there’s nothing on Ms. Hernandez. Seems like someone’s covering up her tracks, and it’s likely a pro hacker!” Richard replied. He couldn’t wrap his head around when Audrey suddenly got herself a top–notch hacker on her side.

“What about the prison stuff?” Dylan asked again, frowning.

“Nothing there either. Can’t find a single thing about Ms. Hernandez for the three years she was in prison!” Richard replied. That was what really spooked Richard. He’d pulled out all the stops to investigate, but came up empty. Clearly, someone was hiding Audrey’s information.

“Keep digging!” Dylan clenched his jaw, fury blazing in his eyes.

After Audrey and Brian got back to the hotel, she told Brian to take a bath first. She turned on her phone and saw a message from Invincible. [Ms. Hernandez, someone is trying to dig up your information, but they haven’t found anything because I’ve encrypted all your data. No one can crack it but me.]

Aud: [Great, thanks!]

Invincible: [Ms. Hernandez, do you want me to find out who’s looking into you?] Aud: [No need.]

Then, Audrey opened a group chat named “Non–human Research Center” and then started a private chat with an account named “Python.” She sent a message first. [Have you found any leads on the person I asked you to find?]

Python quickly replied: [I followed your clues to Bliss Hill Orphanage, but it’s already been torn down. I’ll let you know as soon as I find any new info!]

Aud: [Thanks!]

Python: [No problem!]

Audrey put away her phone and went to take a bath. After she finished, she went to

Brian’s room. As soon as she entered, she saw Brian typing away on his keyboard with a serious expression. When he noticed Audrey, he quickly closed his laptop, clearly trying to hide something from her.

“What are you hiding?” Audrey asked, frowning slightly as she glanced at Brian.

“It’s something that will upset you. You’d better not look!” Brian had deleted all the nasty posts and news about Audrey.

Just then, Jessica called. Audrey answered, hearing Jessica angrily saying, “Audrey, you better stay off the internet. Your father is going all out for your sister. He’s airing your dirty laundry and badmouthing you online. Now everyone is bashing you.”

Audrey listened calmly and glanced at Brian. She had been prepared for trouble ever since William threatened her on the phone. But she didn’t expect that, even though she and Sarah were both William’s daughters, he would go so far to ruin her for Sarah’s sake.

After hanging up, Audrey reached out to Brian and said, “Give me your laptop!”

Brian pressed his lips together, seeing that Audrey already knew, and handed over the laptop.

All the nasty posts and news about Audrey had been thoroughly deleted by Brian. Even the name “Audrey Hernandez” had become taboo.

Audrey’s face was cold as she looked at Brian. “You did this!”

Since Audrey knew, Brian pouted and said, “They were talking trash online. Audrey, don’t be mad!”

Audrey’s expression softened a bit. “I’m not mad, just think it’s unnecessary. If you’re really upset, tomorrow I’ll take you to teach them a lesson!”

“How will we teach them?” Brian asked, his curiosity piqued.

“You’ll see tomorrow!”
