Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Upon hearing Abner’s words, Audrey only said, “Perhaps it’s because Sister quarreled with Liz when she visited me on set.”

Abner was furious. “She’s too much. Since she hurt my sister, I…”

Suddenly, Abner thought of something. He looked at Audrey in shock and said, “What about your leg? Did you get into a car accident because Liz sent someone to hit you?”

Audrey replied, “It’s very likely.”

Abner clenched his fists slightly. “You and Charlotte are both my sisters. Now that you’ve been hurt, I can’t sit back and do nothing.”

However, Audrey said, “Brother, before you attack the Campbell family, I hope you can promise me something.”

Abner heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Go ahead. As long as it’s something I can do, I’ll agree to it.”

Audrey voiced her thoughts. “Please don’t attack Liz for the time being.” “What?” Abner was puzzled. “What do you mean?”

Audrey said, “I’ve been brewing something recently. This matter is directly related to Liz… What I mean is that it won’t be too late for you to attack the Campbell family when the time is right.” Abner was confused. “What did you do to Liz?”

Audrey smiled. “This is a war between women.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Abner was confused when he heard that. Audrey said, “Brother, don’t worry about this for now. Soon, you’ll know what I’m going to do. When the time comes, I’ll naturally tell you when it’s best to attack the Campbell family.”

Abner was not a person who liked to hesitate. As the future head of the Lance Family, he knew the importance of having iron-blooded methods.

However, at this moment, Audrey had confidently said that she had already begun her revenge on Liz. Abner decided to believe Audrey for once.

“Alright, I’ll wait for you.” Abner said, “If you run into any trouble, please tell me. I’ll help you.” Audrey nodded seriously.

[Big Brother is so good to me!]

Abner laughed.

In the afternoon, Abner returned to the company to deal with his business. Audrey lay on the bed and fell asleep. Suddenly, the door to the ward was gently opened.

Audrey subconsciously looked up and saw Evans walking in with an exquisite fruit basket.

Audrey and Evans looked at each other and quickly looked away.

Evans placed the fruit basket in his hand on the table, then silently walked to the bed and sat in front of Audrey.

“Why didn’t you tell me?” Evans suddenly asked.

Audrey turned her head and met Evans’s gaze.

Seeing that Audrey was silent, Evans said with a serious expression, “Aren’t we friends? Almost everyone around you knows about your car accident. I’m the only one who doesn’t know anything.”

At this point, Evans suddenly looked a little sad.

Audrey was immediately shocked. She… This seemed to be the first time she had seen Evans reveal such an expression.

Evans continued, “In the past two days, you’ve been chatting with me in a very normal tone. On the other end of the phone, I didn’t even know that you were injured.”

“If I hadn’t heard it from my brother by chance, I wouldn’t have known that you were already in the hospital,” Evans said to himself. “Audrey, we’ve known each other for so long. Can’t I know about your recent situation?”

Audrey felt very embarrassed.

“Evans… I didn’t mean to hide it from you, ” Audrey explained. “It’s just that you’re usually too busy with work. I think it’s best not to disturb you.”

“Disturb? You’re my friend. I’ll be happy if you tell me about yourself. How is this disturbing?” Evans’s tone instantly became a little agitated. “Even my brother knows about your injury. I’m the only one who doesn’t know. Audrey, I really feel guilty.”

Upon hearing Evans say that he felt guilty, Audrey’s eyes widened. “God!

W-why would you have such thoughts?”

Evans silently looked into Audrey’s eyes. “We’ve known each other for so long. You got into a car accident, but I can’t do anything for you.. Wouldn’t a friend feel guilty?”
