Chapter 206
Today was the delivery day. Nathan should be on hot bricks.
“It’s alright. You can meet them. Name a high figure. If they keep asking who you sold the formula to, just say that you gave it to your boss and that you’ll find out for them.
“Since they’re in a rush, you can demand a commission. You can demand however much you want. The money is yours.” Her tone was a tad playful.
The mention of getting a commission made Shawn smile. “Okay. I’ll do as you say.”
A favor could only be done with a reward in return, and Audrey was very well aware of
that.
“I’ll send you a name list a while later. You can buy some time before giving it to them. Tell them that your boss had sold the formula to the companies on the list,” she instructed.
“Okay. Don’t worry, Ms. Yeomans.”
After terminating the call, she sent a name list to him and took a birth control pill.
Considering how her legs still felt like soft and weak, she figured that going outdoors was impossible today. She sat on the mat in the living room and watched all the experiment recordings.
Whenever it came to work, she would be engrossed in it.
Even when Ryan returned home at 6:00 pm, Audrey still remained in that sitting posture.
He wore slippers and took his coat off. Walking toward the couch, he stroked her head.
That surprised her. “Since when were you back home?”
The word “home” coming from her elicited a smile from him.
He seated himself on the couch and planted a kiss on her forehead. “You didn’t take the lozenges?”
She cleared her throat. “I forgot.”
“What about lunch?” He asked again.
“I forgot about that too…”

He looked at the recording for a brief moment. Based on the logo of the laboratory, the laboratory belonged to Evergreen Biotech.
No questions were asked, and he simply unbuttoned the cuffs and took his watch off.” You can continue your work for a while before we have dinner.”
“Dine out?”
He flashed a smile and stood up. “Nope. We’ll eat at home.”
Ryan washed his hands and wore the apron in the kitchen. Seeing this, Audrey couldn’t help the smile on her face.
She refocused her attention to the recordings to observe how Jessica executed the
experiment.
Until she smelled something nice, Audrey got up on her feet.
Due to the long hours of sitting with her legs crossed, her legs were paralyzed by a little numbness. She took a moment for herself before striding to the dining room.
Ryan made four dishes including soup. When Audrey was going to scoop rice for themselves, he already came out from the kitchen with two plates of rice.
“Wash your hands,” he prompted.
After dinner, she volunteered to clear up the table. By the time she came out of the kitchen, he was talking over the phone on the balcony.
She sat on the mat in the living room to have a video call with Dallas and Lily.
“Mommy, Mr. Lambert Senior seems to be very angry today,” whispered Lily.
Baffled, Audrey asked, “Did something happen?”
This was the first time she heard that George was livid from the kids.
“He was talking over the phone. The person said something and then he smashed the teacups and chess board angrily,” Dallas recounted. “I think I heard him saying that someone isn’t allowed to leave the Lambert family.”
“Yeah, yeah! Even Wandflower was surprised. I have never seen him so angry before.” Lily kept her voice down.
Audrey’s stomach clenched as she turned to look in Ryan’s direction–the balcony.

Did he tell George about his plan to leave the Lambert family? Was that why George was all riled up?
“How’s Wandflower doing?” she asked.
