Chapter 37
At the same time, Audrey, already seated in Morgan’s exclusive lounge, was completely unconcerned with Sarah’s predicament. She played a few games on her phone while waiting for Morgan.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
When Morgan finished filming, Tate called out to him. He cleared his throat and said, “Morgan, would your boss be interested in joining the entertainment industry? With her looks and figure, she’d be a hit.”
“Dream on.” Morgan gave Tate a cold glance. He dared not even suggest letting Audrey enter the entertainment industry.
Tate cleared his throat again. “Well, we still haven’t cast anyone in Charlotte’s role.”
Morgan thought for a moment and then said, “I’ll find someone.”
“Alright, that will do then.” Tate sighed, feeling somewhat regretful. It would be such a waste not to bring Audrey’s looks and figure into the entertainment industry.
-Morgan entered the lounge just as Audrey finished her game and exited the interface.
“You’re done?”
Morgan nodded. “Yes, I’ve had the assistant book a table at a restaurant.”
Audrey stood
up.
“Let’s go.
Morgan followed Audrey out of the lounge. Many people outside were paying attention. to that corner. When the door opened and Morgan and Audrey walked out, they quickly turned their heads away, sneaking glances at them occasionally.
Once they were out of sight, the assistant director boldly asked Tate, “Do you really believe that person is so important to Morgan?”
Tate looked at the assistant director as if he were an idiot. “Whether she is or not, with Morgan around, would you dare to offend her?”
The assistant director cleared his throat. “No, but what about the role of Charlotte?” He was worried.
Tate replied, “Why worry? Let Morgan handle it.”

Morgan had booked a private restaurant known for its privacy and membership–only policy.
When they entered, they were led to a private room. As they walked past an open room, Shawn, who happened to be visiting Film City, saw them and was surprised. Audrey was here. If Shawn wasn’t mistaken, she was with a man..
Shawn had a stake in the restaurant and immediately asked the staff. When he found out, he was worried for Dylan. Morgan was the man with Audrey. He wondered how Audrey knew Morgan.
Shawn asked in the group chat: [Guess who I saw at The Garden?]
Cade replied indifferently: [Who could it be? It couldn’t be Audrey, right?]
Shawn: [It was her.]
Cade: [What the hell? Isn’t The Garden near Film City?]
Shawn: [Guess who she is with?]
Dylan: [Who?]
Shawn: [Boss, brace yourself. Don’t get jealous, seriously.]
Dylan: [Spit it out.]
Shawn: [She is with Morgan Richardson.]
Andrew was surprised too. [Morgan? How does Audrey know Morgan?]
They all knew Morgan as he was the top star in the entertainment industry.
Shawn clucked his tongue and replied, [Who knows? They seem pretty close.] He added, [Boss, are you still there?]
Cade: [Boss probably is already on his way to you.]
Shawn went silent. He could already foresee an impending showdown.
Andrew suddenly texted in the group chat: [Do you think Boss will dare to confront Audrey? I bet he won’t.]
Shawn laughed and replied, [Andrew, you’re getting really bold. Ever since Audrey is
going to be your sister, you’ve got the guts to bet against Boss.]
Andrew insisted confidently, [If you don’t believe me, just wait and see.]

At the same time, in the other private room, the food had already been served. They were tailored to Audrey’s tastes and preferences.
“Babe, would you consider making a cameo?” Morgan looked at Audrey, his eyes bright with hope.
Audrey glanced at Morgan coldly. “Not interested, but I can introduce someone to you.”
“Who?” Morgan asked curiously, knowing anyone the boss introduced must be special.
Audrey replied, “I’ll ask her if she’s willing. Then I’ll have her contact you
Morgan nodded. “Alright.”

After they finished their meal, Audrey asked Morgan to leave first. Morgan wanted to spend more time with her but reluctantly agreed. He knew his presence was too noticeable. He left with his assistant.
After Morgan left, Audrey headed in the opposite direction. A black car drove up and blocked her path. Audrey stopped. She narrowed her eyes coldly and looked over, meeting Dylan’s icy gaze from the back seat.
Audrey averted her eyes and walked away. Her car was parked not far away. When she got in and prepared to start it, the black car crashed into hers with a loud bang. Her body jerked violently.
Audrey stared blankly at the car that had hit her. She noticed the madness and cruelty in Dylan’s bloodshot eyes, with a hint of tears. Her heart skipped a beat. Dylan seemed ready to drag her into hell with how ruthless he was right now.
Audrey’s eyes darkened. Her lips pressed into a tight line. Her face was cold as she started her car and revved the engine, ready to ram into Dylan’s car.
The fierce look in Dylan’s eyes quickly faded. Seeing Audrey’s indifferent face, he closed his eyes and then hoarsely instructed Richard, “Let her leave.”
Dylan didn’t dare to risk Audrey’s life. Even though he knew Audrey was using such a drastic method to force him to back down, he retreated in the end.
It was the same when Dylan knew Audrey was dining and laughing with another man inside the restaurant and was consumed with jealousy. He wanted to tie her up and keep her by his side forever but he didn’t dare. He didn’t know what to do with Audrey.
Dylan watched as Audrey’s car brushed past his, not even having the courage to stop her. After a long silence, he instructed Richard to follow her.
Audrey never looked back. When she reached the hotel, she entered without a backward glance.
“Boss, shall we head back?” Richard asked.
In the back seat, Dylan’s deep eyes remained fixed on where Audrey had gone. After a long silence, he said quietly, “Richard, will she never look back at me again?”
Richard didn’t know how to respond.
Dylan added, “Do you think I should give her back those three years?”
Dylan’s words shocked Richard. He thought, ‘Has Boss fallen so far for Ms. Hernandez? He recalled the month after Boss regained his memory and couldn’t help but feel heartache. He finally said, “Ms. Hernandez will see the good in you, sir.”
“Let’s go back.” Dylan withdrew his gaze, his body disappearing into the shadows. He closed his eyes as if to shut out everything around him.
Seeing his boss’s lonely and desolate figure, Richard couldn’t help but feel a pang of sympathy.
