Chapter 210
Audrey replayed the experiment recordings again and again.
Jessica’s hands were steady. She could carry out the experiments almost exactly the same as her previous attempts.
However, there were still problems with the data. Thus, Audrey had reasons to suspect that it had something to do with the apparatuses.
Audrey was determined to go outdoors today no matter what. There was only a week left before George’s birthday party, and getting him a present was quite an urgent matter. Since he had all kinds of mystical collections, sincerity mattered the most.
A few days ago, she was on the phone with Jerry March, a prominent potter. He was going to release a new work these few days.
George loved pottery, so she decided to drop by Jerry’s pottery studio to try her luck and see if his new collection was out or not.
As soon as she got changed, the doorbell rang.
Audrey went to check the surveillance footage. To her surprise, it was George and Edward!
Instinctively, she looked back to check the living room. It would be bad if Ryan had left his belongings there.
Her eyes scanned every corner. After making sure that there was nothing that belonged to him, she primped her hair and opened the door.
“Hi, Mr. Lambert Senior.” She turned sideways to make way for George.
Yet, he stood at the doorstep, not intending to enter the house. “Sorry for stopping by without a call beforehand. Are you busy?”
“No. Don’t be sorry. It’s fine.” Audrey grinned. “Come on in.”
“I’ll stay and wait for you here, sir.” Edward smiled.
She nodded and grabbed a pair of new male slippers for George.
When he took a seat on the couch, she asked, “Anything you’d like for a drink? I don’t have your favorite peppermint tea, though. How about ginger tea?”

He seemed surprised that she still remembered his favorite. A smile beamed on his face.” Sure. Thank you.”
As he watched her head to the kitchen to make tea for him, the fury in him slowly
subsided. He was actually still angry at Ryan, but George cast his attention to Audrey’s
house.
It wasn’t a huge place, but it was clean and tidy. It was enough for her to live alone.
His gaze landed on a button beside the desk and he paused momentarily.
Holding his cane, he headed over to pick it up.
A button from a male’s shirt.
George gazed at Audrey, who was busy in the kitchen.
“Is she dating someone?” he wondered.
He placed it on the table with both his hands placed on top of the cane. A crease deepened
between his brows.
Actually, he was here to tell her that he was going to introduce a potential spouse to her.
If Audrey had a boyfriend…
Before George could think further about it, she served the tea on the table. “It’s hot.”
“Thank you,” he said.
Once she sat on the single–seater couch, he nudged his chin at the button. “Are you seeing someone?”
