Chapter 129 - 129: Familiar Figure
Five minutes later, Anna replied to Audrey’s message.
Anna: “Sister, I’ve asked. The people over there said that Elena won’t appear at tonight’s banquet.”
Audrey replied with an “OK” emoji.
Thinking of the last time she was mocked by Frank, Audrey felt speechless.
This was the strength of the protagonist’s aura. Even though Audrey, as a supporting actress, was already working hard to change her fate, the main plot didn’t change.
Later on, Audrey figured out why.
She was only a supporting role. No matter how she developed, as long as it didn’t affect the fate of the male and female leads, it was actually easy for her to change her fate. However, once she met Elena, Audrey was destined to become her enemy.
In order to successfully change her fate of being sent to Africa, Audrey had no choice but to inquire more about Elena’s schedule. At least, before Audrey figured out what personality Elena would eventually transform into, she couldn’t act rashly.
Audrey looked up at the ceiling.
The beautiful crystal lamp was emitting a beautiful and dazzling light.
She hoped that Elena wouldn’t come tonight. Otherwise, she was destined to be hit by the chandelier. Audrey kindly reminded Elena that if Elena insisted on coming, Audrey could only hide from her.
Otherwise, Audrey would be implicated when the crystal lamp smashed down.
However… Audrey suddenly thought of Frank. Audrey learned from Anna that Frank would definitely attend tonight’s charity banquet.
Audrey had read the original book, but it was only a text description after all. Audrey could only imagine what happened in the book. Now that she was the person in the drama, she was looking forward to the scene of Frank and his childhood sweetheart appearing together.
The original book mentioned that the girl was sweet and was completely different from the bright and beautiful Elena. Of course, the ending of the original book was that Frank and Elena were together.
Audrey had heard a lot about the upper class from Anna. There were many types and the content was rich, making Audrey click her tongue.
Audrey was even a little excited at the thought of Elena fighting her love rival.
It was seven o’clock in the evening.
The banquet would begin in half an hour. At this moment, many people had already arrived in the hall.
At this moment, Charlotte asked Audrey curiously, “Didn’t anyone from the Hill familv come?”
Audrey replied, “You know that the Hill family has never liked to get involved in such matters. Didn’t Eldest Brother and Second Brother not come?”
Charlotte nodded.
As the banquet approached, Audrey finally saw Frank.
The initiator of this charity banquet was a famous charity organization in society. Although Gary and the Hill family head were not present, they each sponsored this banquet. It could be said that they had given the organizer enough respect.
Frank’s family was very powerful. Audrey had also learned from Charlotte that Frank was from the Waiting family. His status was almost on par with the Lance and Hill families.
As expected of someone with the protagonist’s aura. Even the family he came from was so illustrious. Audrey sighed inwardly—this was even though the Lance Family she was in now was not inferior to the Waiting family. The banquet this time was roughly divided into three processes. In reality, the organizer would give a speech, followed by a performance, and finally, a donation segment.
The organizer’s representative spoke impassionedly on the stage. Audrey glanced in Frank’s direction, and to her surprise, she saw a familiar figure!
“Ah!” Audrey exclaimed. Charlotte heard the commotion and turned to look at her. “What’s wrong?”
Audrey suppressed the excitement in her heart and forced a smile. “Nothing.”
When Charlotte turned around again, Audrey was no longer in the mood to listen to the organizer’s speech. She looked in the direction from before.
She wasn’t sure. Perhaps she should look again.
Audrey looked over and realized that Frank was looking at her, but Elena was nowhere to be found.
Her gaze met Frank’s and she was caught off guard. Audrey was stunned for a moment. Frank frowned slightly and quickly looked away.
Audrey turned to look at Charlotte’s side profile.
Just now… Was Frank looking at her or Charlotte? Audrey was suddenly puzzled..
