Chapter 107
Dylan looked at Audrey with a hint of grievance in his deep eyes Audrey smiled coldly with a hint of mockery. “Mr. Clifford, I’m very grateful to you for saving me yesterday, but it’s just gratitude. I won’t give you too much.” Audrey’s voice was cold as she glanced at Dylan. “No matter what you think and who was right or wrong in the past. I’m just like that. These are two different matters.”
Dylan’s eyes were filled with layers of despair. His pitch–black eyes were deep and calm. In the end, there was only a darkness so thick it could not be dispelled. There was silence.
Then, Dylan let go of Audrey’s hand and said softly, “Got it. I’ll get someone to send you back.”
“No need,” Audrey flatly refused. Then, she looked at Dylan and said, “If possible, please get rid of your men, Mr. Clifford. I don’t like being followed.”
“I’ll tell them to leave when you’re safe,” Dylan insisted. His dark eyes were a little hurt. He looked at Audrey and said softly, “I’m just asking them to protect you secretly. They won’t interfere in anything you do, nor will they affect you. They won’t investigate your privacy, okay? When those people who want to hurt you are dealt with, I’ll tell them to leave.”
Dylan’s voice was low and pleading, even a little humble.
Audrey pursed her lips and said indifferently, “Whatever.” Then, she turned and left.
Although Audrey did not let Dylan send her home, he was still worried. He asked Richard to arrange for someone to follow Audrey’s car. The subordinate would return to the hospital to report after Audrey was safely sent home.
Once Audrey left the hospital, Richard came in.
“Where are the people from yesterday?” Dylan’s voice became colder. There was a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes.
“The two hitmen have been arrested and interrogated in Campvan Hall. However, they are pretty tough, so it might take some effort. One of them escaped, but the rest have been dealt with,” Richard said.
Dylan’s aura was dangerous and cold as he ordered, “As long as they don’t die, there’s no need to be nice.”
Richard nodded respectfully.
“What about what happened last night at the party?” Dylan asked.
Thinking of what happened at the party, the cold aura around Dylan became even more dangerous.
Richard reported, “Last night, Mrs. Clifford invited a few more authoritative media outlets. She probably wanted to share the news of your engagement with Miss Baxter. Although it didn’t work out in the end, some news of what happened at the party had already spread. I’ve already gotten people to pay attention to what is happening on the Internet now.”
Dylan nodded. “Clean up all the bad stuff. Don’t let me see them
“Yes, sir,” Richard replied.
In fact, the Internet was already in an uproar.
One netizen typed: [Fuck. Didn’t this Audrey go to jail for three years? She’s the boss of Star International, the boss of Neptune Investment, the genius trader Aud, and also the boss of Silvandel Auction House. She has conquered me. Does she still need a fiancé? The kind that won’t put you in jail.]
Another netizen remarked: [Dream on. This young lady is mine. I’m moving the city hall there and we can get married on the spot.]
A third netizen commented: [Am I the only one who thinks that Audrey is cool? It’s indescribable. What’s the big deal about the Clifford family’s heir? Isn’t it better to earn more money? If I’m rich, I can have a dozen handsome guys of all types. I’ll be very happy to change one every day.]
The last netizen added: [Ooh. Am I the only one who thinks that the three CEOs working for Audrey are very good–looking? They’re gentle, handsome, and protective of their boss. They’re simply amazing.]
Audrey’s identities were exposed one after another, and all the major online platforms exploded. There were even many celebrities who went onto Twitter to voice their opinions.
The first to pop up was naturally the top celebrity in the entertainment industry, Morgan. [Hello, boss.]
Closely following Morgan was the youngest movie queen in the entertainment industry, Elizabeth. [Hello, boss.]
Immediately after, the celebrities and big shots under Star International did the same.
Anyone who went onto Star International’s Twitter account and scrolled down would see a whole list of [Hello, boss.]
As one of the largest entertainment companies in the country, Star International had many big celebrities under them. In addition, the top celebrity, Morgan, appeared. It could be said to have once again made Audrey extremely popular.
One of Morgan’s fans remarked: [Wow. As expected of Morgan’s boss. She’s so cool (I won’t accept any rebuttals). Hello, boss. I’ll leave Morgan to you. You have to treat him well.]
An Elizabeth fan commented: [Hello, boss. I’ll leave Elizabeth to you. Don’t let her be bullied.]
Immediately after, the fans of the various celebrities also left comments below. In the end, Twitter was about to collapse from the heavy traffic.
Northville, in a men’s prison, a woman with disheveled hair was carried out by two prison guards. Her clothes were in a mess and only covered her private parts. The rest were torn. Her exposed skin was rough and covered in wounds. There were bruises all over her. Some were from being strangled, some from being beaten, some from being knocked down. Some were also from being tortured by perverted men. Her long hair was disheveled and she looked shabby, old, and haggard.
In less than a month, Sarah had changed drastically. She was no longer as beautiful and charming as before. At this moment, she looked like a 50–year–old woman.
Sarah was led to a chair. Her hands were handcuffed and her feet were chained. When she saw Richard, her dark dead eyes suddenly lit up. “Let me out. I was wrong. I won’t cause trouble for Audrey anymore. Let me out now. I don’t want to stay here anymore.”
Richard looked at Sarah coldly and said, “As long as you tell us what happened seven years ago, you can leave this place, Miss Sarah.”RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
Sarah’s eyes lit up, but her expression immediately changed as she shook her head, “No, I can’t talk. I’ll die. I can’t say anything.”
Sarah shook her head desperately and kept her mouth shut, as if she had thought of something terrifying.
Richard frowned and looked at Sarah. His voice was cold. “Do you want to leave or continue to be abused and humiliated here? Miss Sarah, you can choose
“No, I’m not leaving. I can’t talk about it. If I do, I’ll die. I don’t want to die.” Sarah trembled in fear.
When Richard saw that, his heart sank. He thought, ‘What is it that made her so afraid that she would rather be tortured here than tell us?‘
The next second, Sarah was brought back to the cell again. Richard returned to the hospital to report to Dylan.
