Chapter 98 - 98: Damn Woman
The production team progressed in an orderly manner. It was unknown if it was because of Frank’s presence or other reasons, but Elena didn’t cause trouble for Audrey for a long time.
Although Audrey didn’t have any thoughts about Frank, she had to admit that ever since this fellow appeared, he had saved her a lot of trouble.
Audrey looked at the male and female leads who were rehearsing in the distance. At this moment, they had already reached the point where the protagonist’s relationship had heated up.
Wait, heating up?
Audrey was suddenly very curious. Had Irina and Frank already developed feelings for each other?
Later on, Audrey thought about it and realized that she had worried too much.
It was only a matter of time before Elena and Frank fell in love. No one could stop them.
During the intermission, Anna went to a nearby shop and bought a large bottle of iced Coke for Audrey. Audrey gestured for Anna to sit down before skillfully opening her phone to scroll through Weibo.
Just as she reached the exciting part, an unknown number suddenly called.
A trace of suspicion flashed across Audrey’s eyes. Thinking of what had happened to Tina the last time, she didn’t hesitate and answered the call. “Hello?”
Unexpectedly, it wasn’t Tina’s voice on the other end, but a voice that made
Audrey feel as if a lifetime had passed. “Audrey!”
Audrey was stunned for a moment before she sat up straight. “Linda?” Anna instantly looked at Audrey in surprise.
After receiving a definite reply from the phone, Audrey collapsed on the recliner like before. “Why? What’s the matter?”
Linda seemed a little haggard, and her voice was filled with fatigue.
‘You should have heard about me, right?” Linda said.
Audrey sneered and replied, “Your matter? What has it got to do with me?”
Unexpectedly, Linda quickly became agitated. “Audrey! How can you be so heartless? I used to treat you as my best friend! I didn’t expect you to harm me! How can you be so cold-blooded? To think that I treated you so sincerely in the past.”
Audrey didn’t want to talk nonsense with her. “How many accessories did you take from me? Did you take the initiative to return them?”
Also, she hadn’t settled the score with Linda and Jerry for colluding to frame her last time.
“You gave it to me yourself!” Linda was a little excited, not realizing her mistake at all.
“Alright.” Audrey didn’t want to waste her breath on her. “Is there anything else? I’m very busy. If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up first.”
“Don’t!” Linda quickly stopped her in agitation. “Audrey, on account of the fact that we used to know each other, I only want you to do one thing.”
Audrey scoffed at Linda’s actions. “I’m sorry, I’ve been very poor recently. If you want to take money, forget it.”
Linda, who was hiding in the dark rental house, gritted her teeth. She was so angry that she almost smashed her phone, as if this was the only way to vent her anger at Audrey.
But for the sake of her future life, Linda could only endure it. She discussed with Audrey nicely, “Audrey, you know that I’m hiding everywhere now. I don’t even have the money to eat…”
Now, Audrey was certain that Linda was the one who wanted to escape the marriage and not be hidden by Caroline.
Audrey asked curiously, “Why are you suddenly running away from the marriage?”
Linda gritted her teeth. “Who wants to marry that idiot! Hooligan! Bastard!
Caroline forced me to stand up and say that I don’t want to marry Jerry… Hmph, I knew that this shrewd woman would never let herself suffer. I won’t let her have her way.”
Linda was scolding Caroline with every word. Audrey sensed that things weren’t as simple as they seemed. “You mean Caroline wants you to take the blame?”
Linda was about to cry. “Of course, this despicable woman didn’t want the Lake family to be affected. She threatened me and asked me to take the initiative to stand up and say that I had fallen in love with someone else or even cheated on her… This damn woman is too vicious.”
Linda rambled on about her misfortune again, and Audrey felt her ears hurt. “And then? What are you trying to say?”
Linda was still complaining. “It’s all Caroline’s fault! She doesn’t want the Lake Family’s business to be affected and wants me to bear all the consequences. She even promised to give me a sum of money after the matter is over… But this way, the Rofus Family won’t let me off either..”
