Chapter 71
As Audrey just returned to the backyard, the cre Katherine and few others hurrying out of the pavilion, their expressions not too good. She couldnât helps but furrow her brows
âWhat happened?â Audrey approached.
As soon as Phoebe saw Audrey, she grabbed her hand and asked with a frown. âThe servants just came over and said something happened earlier. Are you fine?
Audrey shook her head, already having an idea of what had happened.
âIâm fine,â Audrey said.
Phoebe said, âThatâs good. I was so scared just now, afraid that something happened to you!â
Because of the incident at the Roscente family last time, Phoebe was worried when she heard something had happened again, fearing it might involve Audrey.
Seeing Audrey safe and sound, Phoebe finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Audrey felt warmed by Phoebeâs concern and held her hand. Her usually cold voice softened slightly as she said. âIt wasnât me. Iâm fine.â
The group hurried to the front banquet hall. Beyond the hall was a garden, and in the garden was a glass conservatory
Katherine loved gardening, and since she didnât have children, tending to plants became Katherineâs favorite pastime. Furthermore, Maurice Carpenter, the Count had specially built a glass conservatory for Katherine.
But at this moment, a crowd had gathered at the entrance of the glass conservatory, with several people even raising their phones high to capture the scene inside.
It wasnât until Katherine walked over with a grim face that the guests parted slightly.
Suddenly, a sharp scream came from inside the conservatory.
Katherine reached the entrance and saw the scene inside, her expression turning even sullener. She coldly demanded, âGet these two disgusting creatures out of here!â
As soon as Katherineâs voice fell, security guards came over and dragged the two naked figures out of the conservatory.
It was William and the secretary he intended to give to Danny.
No one had expected that someone would dare to cause trouble at Katherineâs banquet, let alone such a disgusting incident.
Seeing the two disheveled figures, the onlookers felt disgusted.
âLet me go! Iâm the chairman of the Hernandez Group! Let go of me!â William struggled fiercely, his face turning red from the embarrassment of being seen in such a state.
Suddenly noticing Audrey standing nearby, William was even angrier.
âYou bastard! Itâs you, isnât it? You set me up! I should have strangled you to death back then, just like your mother, you slut!â William shouted.
William struggled while cursing Audrey.
Audrey looked coldly at William, her expression indifferent and emotionless, as if she were looking at a stranger.

Chapter 7
Sem valued his reputation the most, and todayâs incident undoubtedly made him lose face. How could be not be angry?
However, no matter how angry he was, he had thought about giving the secretary to Danny, but in the end, he had only embarrassed himself.
sdreyâs phone suddenly vibrated, and she took it out to see a message that had just been sent. [How was the show?]
Audrey glanced at it indifferently before punting her phone back into her bag.
The security guards threw William and the secretary out of the estate, even throwing their clothes out afterward, before slamming the gate shut.
Mr. Hernandez, what do we do now? Youâve tarnished my innocence! the secretary cried, curling up and looking at William, feeling wronged and helpless.
The secretary hadnât expected that after agreeing to be given to the handsome president of Neptune Investment, she would end up in this situation.
But since her innocence was taken by William, she naturally wouldnât let herself suffer.
William was still full of anger, and seeing the secretary crying only made his face darker.
However, he didnât know what had come over him. He remembered the humiliating scenes from before but suddenly felt as if he were possessed.
He couldnât control himself and grabbed the secretary without caring about anything else.
âLetâs go back to the company?â William said.
With their current appearance, they could only find a place to clean up first. There was a rest area in the chairmanâs office at the top floor of the Hernandez Group.
What had been a wellâplanned banquet suddenly ended prematurely because of William and his secretaryâs sordid affair.
Thinking about how many people had witnessed the scene last night, and that the two of them had been thrown out of the gate naked, Audrey couldnât help but wonder what Rebeccaâs reaction would be if she found out.
Audrey suddenly smiled coldly, a hint of coldness flashing in her eyes.
âWilliam is really shameless. Fortunately, youâve cut ties with him,â Phoebe said.
Phoebe and Audrey got into the Roscente familyâs car. Phoebe felt disgusted when she thought about what had happened at the banquet tonight.
âYeah, Audrey responded faintly, her cold gaze sweeping over the black car that had been following them.
Along the way, Phoebe kept asking Audrey if she took a fancy to any man at the banquet.
Audrey shook her head.
Disappointed, Phoebe continued, âI think that Mr. Roach from Neptune Investment is quite nice. Heâs handsome, successful, and goodâlooking. How about I arrange a meeting with him for you in a few days?â Phoebe suggested.
Hearing this, Audrey couldnât help but touch her nose and clear her throat, saying, âNo need.â
Phoebe interpreted Audreyâs response as a lack of interest in Danny and continued, âAuddie, donât worry. If you donât like Danny, itâs no problem. Honestly, he is a bit plainâlooking and not a match for you. Iâll definitely find you some more outstanding young men. I canât believe that in Northville, there isnât a single exceptional man for you.

Audrey was speechless.
Sure enough, the scandal from last nightâs banquet spread like wildfire the next morning, sweeping through the entire
Northville in no time.
Rebecca had stayed up all night guarding her daughter. Just as she was about to ask the doctor about Audreyâs condition, she heard a few nurses whispering. âMen are really no good. With her daughter in such a state, he still has the leisure to fool around. He was thrown out naked in front of everyone. Itâs so embarrassing!â
