Chapter 234 Encounter at the Restaurant
Audrey knew that the words she spoke were difficult to convince others.
She tightly held Hannah’s hand, her deer-like eyes filled with tears as she looked at her. “Hannah, will you trust me this one time?”
Hannah used to study and act in addition to her regular activities. It was rare for her to go on trips with her parents.
The plan to go to Millview Island this time had been arranged for several months, and it was only after the manager granted her some time off.
She naturally wanted to go out with her parents.
But looking at Audrey’s expression, Hannah couldn't say no.
What does it matter even if it was just a dream of Audra’s?
It doesn’t matter, | will accompany my parents next time!
Hannah gently patted Audrey’s hand and smiled brightly, “Okay, but | will first take my parents to the airport and then find an excuse not to go!”
“Hannah, thank you for believing in me.”
“What's the big deal? Stop crying, okay?” Hannah handed the menu to Audrey. “What do you want to eat? Today, it’s on me.” Audrey was preparing to order when several crisp and pleasant laughter came from the entrance.
Audrey and Hannah looked up.
Four or five girls dressed up and walked in.
Kelsey walked in the middle of a few girls, wearing a white coat, with long hair down, no makeup, smiling brightly, looking beautiful and charming.
Seeing Kelsey, Audrey squinted her clear and limpid deer-like eyes slightly.
After staying in the countryside for a while, Kelsey underwent a subtle change in her demeanor.
In the past, although she appeared gentle and elegant, it was all a pretense, giving people a sense of being guarded. When | saw her this time, she seemed truly gentle and elegant.
Of course, it could have originated from her inner confidence!
When Kelsey came in, she also saw Audrey.This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Compared to before. Audrey has slimmed down a bit. Her face is petite, with delicate features and distinct black and white deer- like eyes. They are moist and, from a distance, appear to be untouched by any speck of dust.
Kelsey's heart scratched like a cat’s paw, as she worked hard to learn new skills, while Audrey was also making progress.
Not only did the appearance become more and more attractive, but the temperament also improved!
Kelsey walked up to Audrey and Hannah’s table and softly said,
“Audrey, what a coincidence, you're also eating here!”

Looking at Kelsey, who clearly despised her, Audrey curved her lips into a smiling expression and said. “It’s quite a coincidence.” “Audra, | went back to Cloud City to handle the household registration migration,” Kelsey thought about how she would soon be able to settle in Seffolk, a hint of pride flashed in her eyes, “Nowadays, it’s not easy to settle in Seffolk. Even if | get admitted to Seffolk University in the future, it's not guaranteed that | can settle there.”
“Audra, | heard Isaac say that your father was expelled from Seffolk. It seems like you won't be able to settle in Seffolk for the rest of your life.”
Kelsey hadn't finished speaking when Hannah slammed the fork onto the table.
A touch of undisguised disgust appeared on her beautiful and radiant face, “Kelsey, your mother relies on being someone’s mistress, getting pregnant before marriage without even getting a status, and you are so proud with just a Suffolk household registration?”
“Well, it's true though. Your mother achieved her position by selling herself, so of course she should be happy!”
Upon hearing Hannah’s words, Kelsey was infuriated.
Hannah and Kelsey were cousins who never got along since they were young. Kelsey's father passed away early, but Elise was good at winning people's hearts, and Joyce Cole always liked Elise and Kelsey.
Even though Elise followed Rylan, she would still go back to see Joyce every year and give her a considerable amount of money, so their relationship did not become distant.
On the contrary, Hannah, Joyce did not like her mother. She strongly opposed Hannah's father marrying her mother back then. Later, Hannah’s father insisted on his decision, and Joyce expelled their

whole family from the Cole family.
Kelsey's face turned purple and blue, and after a moment of gritting her teeth, she looked at Hannah with a sarcastic gaze. “It's my mother’s ability to conceive Isaac’s son! Unlike your mother, who was famous as the top star in the H ook Orchid Garden back then Otherwise, how could she have enchanted my second uncle and chosen to sever ties with the Cole family in order to marry your mother?”
“She was just a woman who rode on the backs of thousands and rested on the shoulders of tens of thousands. He cherished her like a treasure, it was
truly...”
Kelsey didn’t finish her sentence when suddenly her face turned cold.
Audrey splashed a glass of lemonade onto her face.
Adrop of water fell into Kelsey’s coat, instantly making her look disheveled.
“Audrey, you were so rude!”
Audrey didn’t want to look at Kelsey for a moment longer. She reached out and called the restaurant manager.
“Today | rented out this place. | invited all the guests who came to have a meal, except for this one,” Audrey glanced at Kelsey with clear and bright eyes.
Kelsey was so angry that she was trembling all over.
She clenched her teeth tightly, filled with anger and humiliation, her gaze towards Audrey was filled with a desire to tear her into pieces!
If it were in the past, she would definitely have stood her ground with Audrey.

But then she realized that she was about to go to Seffolk soon. If Audrey went to Seffolk after the college entrance examination, there would be no room for her arrogance there!
“Audrey, let’s wait and see!” Kelsey said to the girls behind her. “We went to a different restaurant!”
After Kelsey left, Audrey and Hannah were unaffected. They had dinner and Hannah took her parents to the airport.
When Hannah was changing her boarding pass, she pretended to receive a sudden call from her agent, “What? | have to join the crew right now? | was about to go to Millview Island with my parents... If | don’t go, I'll have to pay double the penalty, alright!” After hanging up the phone, Hannah looked at her parents with a worried expression and said, “Mom, Dad, | can’t go with you. anymore!”
Beatrice Cole frowned, “I didn’t let you enter the entertainment industry in the first place, but you insisted on entering. Now you're so busy that you can’t even take a proper vacation.”
Hannah pouted, holding Beatrice’s arm, and said, “Mom, next time | will definitely find an opportunity to accompany you on a trip.”
Paxton Cole patted Hannah on the shoulder and said, “Alright, don’t feel guilty. You should take good care of yourself while filming outside.”
“Alright!”
Evening.
Audrey and Hannah arrived at the Cole family’s factory in the suburbs.

Hannah showed Audrey around, including the factory buildings and the workers’ dormitories.
The two of them had dinner at the small cafeteria.
“Audra, if you’re not confident, we can stay overnight at the factory.”
Audrey nodded.
After finishing the meal, Audrey asked Hannah to gather the workers and held a brief meeting.
Meaning let them work the night shift tonight, not missing any corner.
The workers were puzzled and had complaints written all over their faces, but Hannah, being the boss’s daughter, they couldn’t say much.
Although they all worked the night shift as instructed, they did not. take Audrey's words to heart.
On a chilly night in January, Audrey stood at the entrance of the factory in Cloud City, observing the surroundings.
Hannah brought a cup of hot milk to Audrey and draped her own coat. over Audrey's slender shoulders. “Audrey, everyone is on the night shift patrol, don’t worry too much!”
