“Alright, ask if you want,” Eric said helplessly.

Audrey was silent for a moment before glancing around.

There were many people present tonight. Audrey even saw several of her peers in the crowd.

Eric seemed to have guessed what Audrey was thinking. He said casually, “Speaking of which, there are so many people tonight. A few female celebrities who are familiar with you will be coming, right?”

Audrey nodded silently.

“Don’t be afraid!” Eric smiled and reached out to hug Audrey’s shoulder. “If they dare to cause trouble for you, I’ll definitely avenge you.” Audrey looked up and glanced seriously at Eric’s face.

Eric’s expression changed slightly. ‘What’s wrong? What now?”

Audrey suddenly smiled. “Second Brother, you’re so good to me.”

The tips of Eric’s ears turned slightly red.

“Ha… You only know now.” Eric retracted his hand awkwardly and looked elsewhere.

“However… Speaking of which, why don’t I see Evans?” Audrey suddenly said.

Eric looked back at her and said indifferently, “Maybe he went to entertain guests.”

“Perhaps,” Audrey replied. Eric was about to change the topic when Audrey’s phone suddenly rang.

“I’ll take a call,” Audrey said to Eric.

Eric said nothing.

Audrey picked up her phone and realized that it was a call from Charlotte. Audrey quickly dialed her phone. “Sister, what’s wrong? What’s the matter?” “Ah! Audrey!” Charlotte sounded a little agitated. “I’m really unlucky today!”

“What’s wrong?” Audrey immediately became nervous.

Eric’s attention immediately focused on Audrey.

Charlotte’s tone was a little dejected. “Ah! I’ve already asked around. Connor wasn’t supposed to come to our department’s gathering, but just as the gathering was about to begin, that guy suddenly pushed the door open and entered.’

Audrey was surprised. “So, he still came in the end, right?”

Charlotte said, “That’s right! I didn’t expect him to come! ”

“What about you now? Did you escape from the gathering?” Audrey asked.

Charlotte replied, “I didn’t think much of it at first. Anyway, I didn’t want to bother with him. But halfway through the game, our team leader suggested that we play Truth or Dare. I was scared to death. Before the game began, I used the excuse that my stomach hurt and I wanted to go to the bathroom.” Audrey lowered her voice. “Are you still in the bathroom…”

Charlotte smiled. “How is that possible? I secretly came out! I’m on the streets now.”

“Ah? You’re out?” Audrey was somewhat surprised. “Then what do you plan to say to your team leader?”

Charlotte thought about it seriously and said, “It’s fine. I’ll send him a message later and say that I’m not feeling well. I’m leaving first.”

“I know that won’t happen, but our team leader will understand me,” Charlotte said. “Actually, our team leader knows about the conflict between Connor and me.”

“Conflict?” Audrey was puzzled.

Charlotte smiled. “I forgot to tell you. The people in our department know that my relationship with Connor is not good, but they don’t know that Kanor likes me. Therefore, if I leave the gathering halfway, they will only think that I don’t want to see Connor and won’t guess anything else.”

After Charlotte finished speaking, she said thankfully, “Fortunately, I ran away quickly. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be good if I was caught and asked some awkward questions when the game starts.”

Audrey also smiled thankfully. “It’s good for you to leave that place, lest you get unhappy when you see Connor.” Charlotte asked, “By the way, have you already arrived at Hill’s house?”

“Of course,” Audrey admitted.

Charlotte smiled. “I’ll look for you now. It’s only seven in the evening. I’m bored on my own. I might as well look for you at the banquet.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Alright,” Audrey said.

After hanging up, Eric asked Audrey curiously, “What’s wrong? Was it Charlotte who called you just now? Did something happen to her?”

Audrey replied, “Nothing. She just felt that the department gathering was boring and wanted to look for us..”
