Chapter 175
After pulling Audrey into the car, Dylan lowered the partition and placed Audrey on his lap. He looked at Audrey gloomily and said, raising his voice, “Stay away from 11ansel, okay?”
Dylan felt very upset every time he thought about what Hansel had said to Audrey. He knew his charming sweetheart could make any man crazy about her, and he was just jealous, wanting to keep her all to himself.
“Okay. I’ll try my best Recalling the way Hansel looked at her and his strange attitude, Audrey also thought he might not be in his right mind. It was better to stay away from him. After all, she had never had the patience to deal with troublesome matters.
Hearing Audrey’s words, Dylan heaved a sigh of relief and felt much better. He pressed his forehead against Audrey’s, saying gently, “Baby, can you promise me you won’t fall in love with someone else?”
Audrey froze for a while, then her gaze turned cold. “What can you do if I fall for someone else?”
Sensing the coldness around the woman in his arms, Dylan hugged her even tighter as if he wanted to press her into his body. After a while, he said humbly in a hoarse voice, “I’ll go crazy?
This invincible man was completed conquered by his beloved woman. He would show all his weaknesses to her and allow her to trample on his pride.
Without Audrey, Dylan would definitely go crazy. Ile might not die, but the pain he would endure would be worse than death. Audrey closed her eyes. When she opened them again, the coldness in them was gone.
The rear seats fell silent. The scenery outside quickly flashed by as the car sped along. Audrey and Dylan remained quiet until they returned to the Hernandez residence.
The two of them got out of the car together. Dylan opened his mouth, but in the end, he only said, “Take a shower and go to bed early
“You too!”
The distance between them seemed to have increased, making Dylan even more worried. Watching the slim figure go upstairs slowly until disappear from his sight, Dylan felt very depressed. He stood downstairs alone for a long time until his phone
rang-
“Dylan, do you want to come for a drink? Bring your girl over!”
“Where are you? I’ll be right there. Dylan closed his eyes. When he opened them again, his eyes regained their coldness.
Josh thought Dylan would reject him immediately, but to his surprise, Dylan agreed without hesitation. Moreover, he sounded a little upset
Dylan hung up after Josh gave him the address. He glanced at the staircase, then left the villa
After taking a shower, Audrey heard the roar of the engine from the courtyard. She walked up to the window, only to see Dylan’s car driving away. She narrowed her eyes, then went back into the bathroom.
When Audrey came out after drying her hair and finishing her skincare, she saw two missed calls from the same person. She took a look and called back.
“Audrey, I heard something happened to you last night. Are you alright? Nicholas called me crying!” Nina’s cheerful voice came from the other end of the line.
Tm fine, Audrey replied calmly.
“I’m relieved then. If something happened to you, my brother might kill himself?” Nina said.
This has nothing to do with Nicholas. After all, if someone was determined to kill Audrey, they would seize any opportunity. Moreover, this wasn’t the first time she had been in danger.
“Do you know who did it?” Nina’s tone became serious.
“There’s some progress. We’re still investigating Audrey then shifted the topic. “Did you go to pick up Peach!”

Chapter 175
Nina would usually go abroad to see Peach around this time. Audrey thought she must have left Simon and the others to visit her daughter these past few days.
“Yes. I’m planning to bring Peach back and have her stay with you for a while,” Nina thought about it and said seriously
Audrey paused for a moment. “Are you sure? You really don’t want Simon to know he has a daughter?”
Nina sneered. “At first, I just felt it was troublesome. We can live a good life even without men. Plus, it’s an arranged marriage for the interests of the two families and we don’t love each other. So, there’s no need to tell him. But now, I won’t deliberately keep it from Simon. After all, He’s Peach’s biological father. What can he do to Peach and me?”
“I’m glad you’ve thought it through. After Peach comes back, she can play with Lucas and Brian. They like her very much,” Audrey said with a smile.
“Since they like sisters so much, why don’t you give birth one for them? I heard Dylan is pursuing you again?” asked Nina. “You sure are well–informed!” Audrey sneered.
‘Of course. Everyone in Chritonia knows about it. Simon’s dad cursed Dylan a lot. Next time you go to his house, don’t bring Dylan with you.” Simon’s father was an upright old man. He liked Audrey even more than he liked Simon. Now that Dylan had made Audrey suffer so much, he hated him, of course.
“Got it. Let’s meet when you get back, Audrey said coldly. At the mention of Dylan, the smile on her face faded.
The two of them said goodbye and hung up.
At the same time, Dylan arrived at the club. He pushed open the door of a VIP room and was greeted by Josh’s terrible singing. When Josh saw Dylan enter, he glanced behind him but did not see Audrey. Raising one eyebrow, he said, “Hey! Why would you leave your sweetheart and come here? You don’t look happy. What’s wrong, Mr. Clifford?”
Josh thought Audrey would come with Dylan. Thinking of the unpleasantness from last time, he didn’t invite anyone who might cause trouble this time.
Unexpectedly, he noticed something was off with Dylan as soon as he walked in. “What? Did you quarrel with Audrey?” The only person who could make Dylan so upset was Audrey.
Dylan smiled faintly. He hoped Audrey would quarrel with him. It showed she still cared about him at least. But she didn’t. Dylan took the glass and drank the liquor in one gulp. After finishing three glasses in a row, he reached for the fourth one.
Josh immediately stopped him. “Hey, hey, hey! Bro, if you’re unhappy, tell Audrey how you feel. Getting yourself drunk won’t solve any problem.
