Chapter 56
As far as Nathan could remember, he had never apologized to anyone. Even if Audrey answered the call, what was he supposed to say?
Meanwhile, Ryan had already boarded the private jet with the Lambert Corporation’s main executives.
He browsed through the program clips and trending topics on the Internet. Seeing the trend turn positive, he was relieved.
After handing the tablet to Julian, Ryan glanced at his watch.
It was time for a brief company meeting.
Ryan picked up the documents, walking toward the back as he instructed Julian, “Get someone to keep an eye on the Internet and be ready to control the trend at any time.”
“Rest assured, I’ve told the secretarial department to keep an eye on the matter before departure.” Julian followed Ryan. “They will post the videos of Audrey’s award–winning speech at intervals.”
Among the acceptance speeches, many of the competitions were not made public in the media. But Julian would send someone to the scene every time and film the whole process for Ryan.
Over time, he kept a collection of videos of
How’s every ear
Julian thought Ryan’s concern for Audrey had exceeded that for an orphaned relative.
As the person who had worked for Ryan for the longest time, he knew well that Ryan was not the over- sympathetic type.

According to the system of Cloudmill Junior High School, classes would be rearranged based on students‘ results after the midterm exam. By then, Harper would be reassigned to a class.
Audrey thought of discussing with Diego about staying with Harper at home during this period and then coming to Cloudmill with her when the semester began.
