Chapter 159
Audrey got up and left the private room.
As soon as she left, the atmosphere in the private room became much livelier. Dylan leaned against the sofa with an indifferent expression. His distinguished and handsome face still had a cold expression that kept people away,
Looking at Dylan with such a demeanor, everyone thought, “That’s right. This is the Prince of Northville we know?
Josh walked over to Dylan and sat down beside him, handing him a glass of drink.
“Not bad, buddy,” he said. “You’re quick. When will you invite me to your wedding celebration?”
Dylan did not take the glass of drink. Instead, he took the warm water prepared for Audrey, clinked glasses with Josh, and took a sip. Then, he said, “It’s still early,”
“Come on. She’s not here now. It’s fine to have a drink. She doesn’t have to be so strict with you, right?”
Josh looked at Dylan and could not help but pity him,
He thought, Tsk, being controlled by a woman to this extent, will he still be shown respect at home in the future?
Dylan glanced at Josh indifferently. “You don’t understand
“Pift, I don’t need to understand!” Josh sneered. He thought, ‘Isn’t it good to live a carefree life? What’s the point of love? His mom suffered because of love back then!”
Dylan did not say anything else. With Audrey not around, it was indeed fine for him to have a drink. However, as long as there was a slight chance of something going wrong, he would not want to do it.
A short while after Audrey left, a figure in one corner also went out,
Dylan squinted at that person’s back and asked Josh, “Who’s that?”
“You’re talking about him? He’s the pampered and spoiled rich kid of the Feine family. He’s usually very arrogant in ladale City, but he’s much more low–key tonight.”
As Audrey came out of the washroom, she bumped into Nicholas Feine, who was walking over.
When Nicholas saw Audrey, he changed his usual arrogant look and said happily, “Audrey, why are you with that devil? I’m telling you. That Dylan isn’t an ordinary person. He’s very dangerous. You’ve got to be careful”
Nicholas was familiar with Dylan’s well–known reputation. Naturally, he knew how terrifying and dangerous Dylan was, so he couldn’t help but worry about Audrey.
“Don’t worry,” Audrey said with a smile, glancing at Nicholas.
Nicholas suddenly leaned in close to Audrey and whispered, “That man probably doesn’t know that you’re his arch–enemy. right?”
“Yeah, Audrey replied indifferently.
“That’s good!” Nicholas heaved a sigh of relief.
As Audrey pushed the door open and returned to the private room, she nearly bumped into the woman who was walking out. Fortunately, she reacted in time.
The sobbing woman did not expect Audrey to come in at this moment. She had tear stains on her face. When she saw Audrey. she shot her a fierce glare. Then, she let out a sinister sneer and spoke sarcastically.
“I’ve seen plenty of women like you. You think that just because you’re pretty, you can achieve great success instantly and rise from a humble position to a high status. He is just not tired of you yet. Wait until he’s had his fill of you!”
After the woman snorted and made her harsh remark, she quickly left, clicking away in her high heels.

Audrey raised her eyebrows and glanced at the atmosphere in the private room.
The others also looked at Audrey.
Dylan had already stood up from the sofa. He was walking over with Audrey’s handbag.
“You’re not feeling well,” he said. “Let’s go home early.”
Audrey glanced at the handbag in Dylan’s hand and nodded.
Dylan held her hand and left the private clubhouse. His subordinate drove the car over.
After returning to the Hernandez residence, Dylan told Audrey to take a shower. He then went into the kitchen himself.
When Audrey came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, Dylan happened to come into the room, carrying a cup of vegetable smoothie with brown sugar.
“The temperature is just right,” he said. “There are no bitter flavors. Drink it to warm your body first.”
Audrey frowned, not taking the cup.
He coaxed gently, “Be good, Drink it so your stomach won’t hurt.”
Audrey sighed inwardly and could only take it and drink it in one go.
Fortunately, the temperature had cooled down to just the right one, so drinking it all at once wouldn’t burn her mouth.

Audrey’s menstrual cramps only lasted for the first few days. After staying in the villa for a few days, Dylan thought of ways to prepare three meals a day for Audrey.
He was somewhat obsessed with it. Every time he saw Audrey finish everything he made, he felt a sense of accomplishment.
A few days later, the Callahan family’s dinner party took place.
Audrey had already informed Dylan in the morning that he did not have to prepare her dinner in the evening.
In the evening, as Dylan looked at Audrey, who was wearing a black gown and coming down the stairs, a trace of amazement flashed across his eyes. Right after that, he felt somewhat displeased.
His dark eyes were slightly cold. “I’ll send you there.
Dylan did not receive an invitation, so he was feeling a bit displeased seeing Audrey dressed up for the occasion.
At the thought that more people would see her beauty, he was unhappy.
“It’s okay. Just get someone to send me there. Audrey was just showing up for a short while as a polite gesture. She did not want to trouble Dylan too much.
Dylan frowned and went forward to hug her.
“Baby, do you dislike me? Can I send you there?” He sounded a little aggrieved.
Audrey was stunned for a moment before saying indifferently, “Okay”
The Callahan family’s dinner party was held at the Callahan family’s residence. When the car arrived outside the Callahan family’s residence, Audrey got out of the car. Before stepping out, she glanced at Dylan and said, “I might take a while. Go eat something first.”
“Okay, Dylan replied as he looked at Audrey gently. His deep black eyes remained fixed on Audrey’s figure as she entered the Callahan family’s home.
Then, he took out his phone and called Josh. “Where are you?”
On the other end of the line, Josh smiled as he said, “I’m attending a dinner party. Why?”
Dylan pursed his lips and said coldly, “Bring me along”
He felt that Troy must have done it on purpose.

“No. Guys bring along a female companion, not a male companion.
“Will you bring me along or not?” Dylan’s voice turned colder.
“Fine. I’ll bring you along”
Although he did not know what was wrong with Dylan, he still agreed to bring him along.
The Callahan family was an aristocratic affluent family, so there were naturally many people at the dinner party.
After Audrey arrived, she sent Troy a message.
Just as she was waiting for Troy to come downstairs, a figure blocked her way.
“Could it be that he’s had his fill of you so quickly? Or have you just curried favor with another man? You even dare to attend the Callahan family’s dinner party, not afraid that you will be kicked out.”
Freya had long spotted Audrey. When she saw Audrey’s face and thought of the embarrassment she had suffered previously, she was filled with jealousy and hatred.
Audrey’s cold gaze swept past Freya, her expression frigid.
Freya got even angrier when she saw Audrey’s haughty look.
‘She is just a woman who climbs the social ladder by using her looks, Freya thought. I don’t know what’s with her smugness.
“Who do you think Mr. Clifford is?” she said. “A woman like you is not worthy of him!”
Freya had admired Dylan for a long time. The first time she saw him, she fell in love with him at first sight.
Initially, she was very happy to learn that Dylan had come to ladale City. She deliberately sought out the right moment the previous night to get close to Dylan, but unexpectedly, Dylan brought along another woman.
