At that time, Evans had said that he wanted to find a female celebrity to shoot the robot endorsement advertisement. At that time, Abner seemed to have heard Audrey’s name.

At first, Abner thought that Evans was just saying it, but he did not expect it to be true.

“I see.” Abner nodded. “In that case, I’ll get the driver to pick you up.”

Soon, Audrey shook her head. “There’s no need. Someone from the company will pick me up.”

“Are you sure Evans isn’t driving here personally?” Suddenly, a cold voice sounded.

Abner and Audrey turned their heads and saw Eric walk out casually.

Audrey’s eyes lit up when she saw the fancy shirt Eric was wearing. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

[When Second Brother wears fancy clothes, it will be when he goes out to film.]

Eric’s mouth twitched. Of course, he wasn’t going to film today. His friend Nat had asked him to go to a bar for a drink.

Abner glanced at Eric’s attire and didn’t say anything. Instead, he said, “I still have something on at the company. Tonight… Remember to come back for dinner tonight.”

With that, Abner left.

As Audrey watched him leave, she whispered in surprise, “Brother actually reminded us to be back for dinner tonight. It’s amazing.”

Eric glanced down at her. “What else? Haven’t you noticed that the children in our family have been coming back for dinner more and more recently?”

Indeed. Recently, Gary’s face had always been cheerful. Seeing that Abner and the others often came home, the allowance he gave them had increased.

Eric had been filming in the entertainment industry for a long time. Last time, he had made a lot of money with the dividends from the “Goddess” television drama. Not long after, he bought a new car for himself.

Audrey thought that Eric would turn around and go to the garage to drive the new car out, but she didn’t expect Eric to stand casually beside her with no intention of leaving.

“Second Brother, who are you waiting for?” Audrey couldn’t help but look up and ask.

Eric took out his phone and looked at the time. “Isn’t Evans the most punctual? It’s almost 7:30.”

What? Audrey was stunned. “Second Brother, are you waiting for Evans?” Eric replied, “That’s right. Isn’t this guy coming to pick you up?

Audrey didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Second Brother, you’ve misunderstood. Evans said that he would send his subordinate to pick me up. He’s also very busy, okay?”

Eric, on the other hand, looked like he understood everything. “I don’t believe you. I’ll make a bet with you. He’ll definitely pick you up personally. Do you believe me?”

Audrey felt that Eric was spouting nonsense. “Second Brother, even if he really came to pick me up, you’ve been guarding here. Don’t tell me you want to get into his car too?”

Eric instantly looked at Audrey with a smile. “You’re right.”

“Ah?” Audrey was stunned.

Eric smiled indifferently. “I just bought a new car. I can’t bear to let it get dusty.

Isn’t someone picking you up? It’s not too much for me to hitch a ride, right?”

Audrey was very surprised. “Second Brother? Are you serious?”

Eric looked straight into her eyes. “Why aren’t you serious? Do I look like I’m joking?”

Audrey gave Eric a curious look before falling silent.

Before the car arrived, Eric and Audrey mentioned Dean’s new script.

“That script is not bad. I think it’s very suitable for you to film it,” Eric gave his opinion.

Audrey said, “Second Brother, did you write that script too?”

Eric laughed. “What a coincidence. Do I write all the scripts? You have a rich imagination.”

Audrey knew that Eric had put in a lot of effort to break free from his mother’s shackles. Eric had put in more effort than she had imagined.

Thinking of the previous drama, Audrey asked curiously, “Second Brother, the script you wrote is so outstanding. I believe no one will force you to work in the company in the future, right?”

Eric naturally understood what Audrey meant.

Eric said, “That drama helped me a lot. After all, the number of views was huge. The company that produced the drama made a lot of profits, and I took a lot of money myself. When my mother saw my results, she couldn’t force me to do anything anymore..”
