Chapter 30
Back in the hotel room, Audrey received a message [The two blood samples you provided me didn’t match.]
Audrey glanced at the message, her lips pursing slightly, and her eyes darkened a bit.
Audrey: [I understand. I’ll get another blood sample for you to match.]
The other party quickly replied to the message: [When?]
Audrey: [Very soon.] After all, Brian’s health couldn’t be delayed.
Audrey put away her phone, changed into more comfortable clothes for movement, and then left the room.
She then drove to the building where the Hernandez Group was located.
When her grandfather and mother were still around, the Hernandez Group was the Holland Group. In just over ten years, the former Holland Group had been taken over by William and even changed its name.
Audrey pursed her lips and drove into the underground garage.
William had been very busy lately and had been feeling uneasy ever since Audrey kicked him out of his original house.
By the time he finished his work and came out of the company, it was already late at night.
After getting into the car, he leaned back in exhaustion, closing his eyes for a rest. Normally, the driver would drive off at this time.
But today, the car didn’t start for a long time. William furrowed his brow and opened his eyes when he felt something was off.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a figure sitting beside him, hidden in the darkness, which he hadn’t noticed before.
The driver had passed out. Startled, William exclaimed, “Audrey, what are you doing?”
William’s expression was angry. Thinking about the recent unpleasantness and the last time he was kicked out of the Hernandez family, he choked on his anger.
“Don’t worry, I don’t want to see you either, but I need something from you,” Audrey said.

Audrey’s gaze swept over him indifferently.
William’s expression changed slightly when he saw what Audrey took out, his voice becoming tense, mixed with anger.
“Audrey, I’m your father. What are you going to do to me?” William said.

“I said I need to borrow something from you! Audrey’s gaze was cold, her tone carrying a faint Despite feeling a chill from Audrey’s cold demeanor, William was genuinely afraid.Then his face darkened, and he shouted, “How dare you!”
Just as the needle approached, William almost wanted to push the door and escape. However, as soon as he tried, he realized he couldn’t muster any strength.
His eyes showed a hint of panic, and he said, “Audrey, I’ll call the police and have you arrested. See if you will end up behind bars!”
Audrey moved swiftly, quickly taking a sample of William’s blood.
Faced with William’s threats, she remained unfazed and said, “Go ahead and call the police.”
Audrey smirked coldly, her smile arrogant and defiant.
Since she dared to come, she naturally wouldn’t let William catch any evidence against her.
After securing William’s blood sample, Audrey noticed that the driver in front seemed to be waking up, so she got out of the car directly.
Audrey returned to her own car, sent a message overseas, and then drove out of the parking lot.
As soon as Audrey’s car left, another car that had been following her all along slowly started up.
Richard said, “Mr. Dylan, Ms. Hernandez got into the chairman’s car of the Hernandez Group and took a blood sample.”
On the other end of the phone, Dylan received the message, his eyes narrowing slightly.
Dylan said, “Find out what she’s doing with William’s blood sample.”
“Yes, sir,” Richard said respectfully before hanging up.

Early the next morning, Audrey, accompanied by Brian and David, had just returned to the room after breakfast when she received a call from the hotel front desk.
“Ms. Hernandez, Ms. Byrne is looking for you at the front desk,” the receptionist said.
Audrey thought, ‘Ms. Byrne?”
Audrey furrowed her brows, not remembering anyone with the surname Byrne, “Hold on. I’ll come down now.”
After hanging up the phone, Audrey got up and went downstairs.
Sitting on the sofa in the lobby was an elegant lady.
Just as Audrey stepped out of the elevator, the lady looked up and saw her, smiling as she got up and walked towards Audrey.
Audrey was somewhat surprised, not entirely unfamiliar with the visitor. Phoebe Roscente’s last name was indeed Byrne, and she was Andrew’s mother.
Phoebe looked at Audrey tenderly and said with a smile, “Audrey, can I call you that? I finally get to meet you.”
“Mrs. Roscente, how do you do?” Audrey’s voice was warm and gentle.
Phoebe said, “You don’t have to call me Mrs. Roscente. If you don’t mind, just call me Phoebe.”
Due to the rumors and her infrequent outings, Phoebe’s impression of Audrey had been mediocre until now.
However, Phoebe realized that Audrey was nothing like the rumors. Audrey really healed Samuel and was Aaron’s master, which made Phoebe think even more highly of her.
The look in Phoebe’s eyes became tender and affectionate as she looked at Audrey.
“Alright, Phoebe,” Audrey said.
Phoebe smiled in response, pulling Audrey’s hand to sit down on the nearby sofa before continuing, “A few days ago, had Andrew call you to invite you to our house for dinner, as a gesture of gratitude. But he hasn’t gotten back to me yet. So, I had to comeText property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

personally to invite you.”
“I’ve received your gratitude, so there’s no need for dinner,” Audrey replied, not entirely comfortable with others‘ warmth.
But Phoebe’s genuine and gentle demeanor made her hesitate to refuse.
Phoebe said, “Come on, I’ve come all this way to invite you. Won’t you honor me by joining us?”
Phoebe looked at Audrey with a warm and affectionate gaze.
Phoebe felt a twinge of sympathy when she thought about Audrey being misunderstood and her three years in prison.
She wondered what Audrey had gone through to become so distant and cold.
Audrey pursed her lips and nodded reluctantly.
Seeing Audrey’s agreement, Phoebe was overjoyed and said, “Let’s go, we’re heading home now.”
Knowing that Audrey had a child, Phoebe added, “Oh, and Brian, we’re taking Brian with us.”
Brian was with his friend upstairs, and they have something else to do later, so they won’t come with us,” Audrey said. She just wanted to have a meal and then left.
Besides, during breakfast, Brian was already insisting that David take him to see the friends he made yesterday.
“Alright,” Phoebe said.
Phoebe beamed with joy and led Audrey back to the Roscente family.
Throughout the journey, Phoebe’s fondness for Audrey grew with each glance, wishing she had a daughter of her own.
This thought took root and flourished in her mind. Phoebe kept looking at Audrey with a mix of tenderness and concern.
Fearing that she might startle Audrey, Phoebe toned down her enthusiasm a bit.
Yet, in her heart, she was already considering discussing this matter with her family the other day. If Audrey could become her goddaughter, it would be wonderful.
Just thinking about it made Phoebe increasingly excited.
