Meeting The One For Me

She was the same as Nathan remembered, yet somehow different–with a touch more femininity.

“It’s Ms. Yeomans.” Edmond looked at the stiffened Nathan. “Mr. Franklin?”

Edmond knew that Nathan had regained his memories.

As the chief legal counsel of the Franklin Group, he was aware it was Audrey who had shielded him during the accident on Nathan’s birthday, ultimately saving his life.

Such deep love was unmistakable, even to someone as oblivious as Edmond.

This was especially true considering Nathan’s first action upon regaining his memory was to annul his engagement to Amelia, whom he had.cherished for so many years.

It was evident how deeply Nathan loved Audrey.

Peter then stepped out of the police station, clutching his coat.

Seeing Evelyn standing with Audrey, he immediately realized that Evelyn had called her.

Evelyn and Audrey glanced toward the steps of the police station as if sensing something.

At that moment, Nathan’s breath seemed to come to a halt.

Audrey waved her hand in his direction, reminiscent of their school days when she’d signal him during basketball halftime to come over for water.

As Nathan instinctively stepped forward, Peter quickly strode past him and hurried down the steps to where Audrey and Evelyn stood.

Nathan’s steps stopped abruptly.

“Peter! You scared me to death!” Evelyn hugged Peter’s arm.

“Are you okay?” Audrey asked.

“Sorry for troubling you again, Ms. Yeomans. Everything’s been explained on my end. Mr. Franklin knows that I’m your bodyguard and has apologized. It’s just that Evelyn was too anxious.” Peter expressed his remorse. “I’m sorry for causing you trouble.”

Evelyn chimed in, “I’m sorry for bothering you, Ms. Yeomans.

“This whole thing started because of me, so it’s only right that I come.” Audrey felt guilty seeing the bruises on Peter’s face. “Let’s go, I’ll take you to the hospital.”

“No need, it’s just a minor injury. I’m used to it from training, it’s nothing serious.” Peter reassured, touching the swelling on his face. “I’ll just apply some ice when I get back.”

Although Peter was unaware of Nathan and Audrey’s relationship, the fact that Nathan had mistakenly attacked him over Audrey made him believe that they must be very close friends.

Therefore, Peter didn’t want to pursue the matter further.

“Alright, if you feel uncomfortable at any time, just give me a call,” Audrey said. She then added, “Take these few days to rest properly at home.”

“I’m fine; I’ll be back at work as usual tomorrow!” Peter flashed a bright smile, holding Evelyn’s hand. “Well, we should get going now.”

“Take a taxi back, and I’ll reimburse you tomorrow.” Audrey lightly patted Evelyn’s arm and said to Peter, “You two go ahead. I need to have a word with Mr. Franklin.”

“Protect Ms. Yeomans,” Peter instructed his colleague before leaving with Evelyn.

The black car parked across from the police station had its rear window rolled down.

Daniel’s chin rested on his hand.

He watched as Peter and Evelyn got into the car, then shifted his gaze to settle on Audrey with evident interest.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
