Chapter 196
“Mr. Franklin, I heard from Mr. Campbell that the Franklin Group leaked Evergreen Blotech’s formula. Oh, and Charles was the one to do it.” Audrey smiled faintly.
“I wonder how Mr. Franklin plans to protect Charles this time? No, perhaps what Mr. Franklin cares about more now is whether the Franklin Group can afford the 30 billion breach of contract penalty.”
“How did you know?” Nathan stared at Audrey. “Did Taylor tell you?”
Audrey chuckled coldly, stepping closer and whispering, “I wonder how far Mr. Franklin is willing to go for Ms. Doyle? Will he sacrifice the entire Franklin Group to help Ms. Doyle save her cousin? I’m quite curious, you see.
With that, Audrey brushed past Nathan with a smile.
“You’ve been drinking.” Nathan grabbed Audrey’s arm. “Let me take you home.”
“Mr. Franklin seems to have time to escort his ex–wife home. Why not hurry up and figure out how to save the Franklin Group instead?” Audrey pulled her arm away.
Nathan watched as Audrey hailed a cab and got in.
He clenched his fists with closed eyes.
Audrey received a call from Taylor when she got into the car.
“Boss! Is Mr. Franklin still interested in you? He seems quite protective of you!” Taylor’s slightly drunken voice came through.
“Do you want me to tell Jessica about this?” Audrey’s tone was indifferent.
“Please don’t! I just wanted to know if your ex–husband is the biological father of Lily and Dallas,” Taylor said.
“No.” Audrey answered truthfully, then added, “You’ve had a bit too much to drink today. Go back, take some sobering medicine, and rest well. Nathan will definitely come to you to discuss resolving things privately tomorrow.”
“Then should I not tell Nathan that you’re the founder of Evergreen Biotech?”
Audrey remembered how Nathan threatened her at the hotel in Eastville with the incident involving the Yeomans family fight at George’s residence.
Audrey wanted revelige, slightest.
“No need to tell anyone,” Audrey said firmly. “Never tell anyone.”
Taylor was somewhat stunned. “But boss, wouldn’t it be such a badass moment to tell him you’re the founder of Evergreen Biotech after the Franklin Group goes bankrupt?”
“You should lay off those novels.” Audrey chuckled and hung up the phone.
The cab’s rear window was open, allowing a cool breeze to rush in, adding to Audrey’s slight tipsiness.
She rested her head against the edge of the window, gazing at the bustling and vibrant lights of Mythravia.
Audrey remembered how Harper once said she wanted to bring Anne to Mythravia when she grew up. Now, Audrey was in Mythravia–but Anne and Harper were no longer by her
side.
As Audrey was about to doze off, the driver arrived at Audrey’s home.
“We’re here, miss!” The driver announced, turning his head.
Audrey stepped out of the car and noticed Ryan’s car stopping behind the cab.
She knocked on the front passenger window, and it rolled down.
“Over here.” Ryan’s voice was tinged with amusement.
Audrey bent over and asked, “Why are you here? Lily and Dallas are at George’s place.”
