Chapter 78
Audrey became anxious. “No! We can’t get married! Outsiders think we’re blood relatives! Do you know what will happen if we marry? What’s this child’s identity? Do you want this child to grow up in gossip?”
Before Ryan could speak, she became even more emotional. “Or do you want to tell others we are not related by blood? If they find my biological mother’s identity, what should the Lambert family do? What should she do? No! I can’t agree with you!”
Moreover, he was the future heir of the Lambert family. George would find him a well–matched wife. She had absolutely nothing to do with him or the Lambert family.
She looked at him with reddened eyes. “The images of my parents always replay in my mind. I’m scared! I didn’t grow up in a normal family and never received my parents‘ love. I don’t want my child to suffer my pain.”
Those were her true thoughts. Once upon a time, she never even thought about having children in the future. Later, it was Nathan who cured her. He had painted her a picture of a happy life after marriage.
He told her that if they had a daughter as beautiful as her, he would protect them both; if they had a son as clever as her, both of them would protect her.
But later, he forgot everything and refused to remember their past.
She had nothing again. When she left Sheysea City, she had planned to live her life alone.

He stared at her and suddenly took a step closer. She stepped back nervously.
“Even Julian can see that my concern for you has long gone beyond the bounds of family. That night at the Jacinda Hotel, you were drugged, but I still slept with you while I was sane. Are you really unaware of… my feelings for you?”
She couldn’t even remember how many times he slept with her in that extreme drug–induced madness that night.
She only remembered that his lips were hot and he was passionate when he kissed her. When she was in a daze, he protected her head from hitting the bedside. He had also whispered her name in his deep voice, which made her lose strength and feel numb all over.
“Stop!”
Her voice couldn’t help put tremble. She turned around and wanted to run away. But he pressed hard on the security door.
Now that he had bared his heart to this extent, he didn’t plan to give her a chance to escape.

“Audrey, I love you.”
He confessed his love deeply, making her heart beat faster.
She couldn’t open the security door. Sensing his approach, she panicked and bumped into his arms. She was forced to step back by his
almost pressing against the security door. pressure
Her breathing became erratic, and she didn’t even dare to look him in the eyes. She lowered her head until the most she could see of him was his unbuttoned shirt collar.
“It seems I wasn’t obvious enough.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he lifted her face with his fingers and kissed her.
“Hmm…” she widened her eyes.
He kissed her skillfully and forcefully, just like that night. She could barely breathe.
