Chapter 415: Nonsense
Seeing that Audrey was ignoring him, Eric continued, “Then, beautiful lady, if I extend an invitation to you, will you accept me?”
Audrey subconsciously felt repulsed.
To be honest, she had come to this gathering today entirely for Charlotte. In fact, Audrey didn’t want to participate in their activities.
Audrey knew that her current state was a little out of place, but she didn’t want to change it.
At the end of the day, she still had a problem with Ollie.
Eric thought that Audrey was shy, so he revealed another gentle smile. “Miss Audrey, I want to invite you to be my dance partner. Is that okay?”
Audrey subconsciously wanted to reject him, but she quickly thought of a countermeasure.
She turned and beamed at Eric. “Thank you for the invitation, sir. But… I’m having some trouble.”
Eric was a little puzzled. “In what way is it inconvenient?”
Audrey quickly tapped on the phone screen twice before raising it in front of him and saying, “How is it? Isn’t this child cute?”
Eric saw the image of a baby on the phone screen and asked in surprise, “Who is this child?”
Audrey put on a melancholic expression. “Sigh, it’s already past ten in the morning. I’ll have to go home to change the child’s diapers after a while.”
“…What? Change diapers?” Eric was shocked.
“Do you already have a baby?” Eric said in surprise.
“That’s right!” Audrey said very seriously. “My eldest son is already in the third grade of primary school. My youngest son was just born two months ago.”
Eric did not expect the young and beautiful woman in front of him to already be the mother of two children.
“Miss Audrey, is what you said true?” Eric asked, unwilling to give up.
“Hmm… Why isn’t it?” Audrey pouted. “My youngest son likes to be noisy. Whenever he doesn’t see me for half an hour, he will shout.”
“Then, then why did you still come here?” Eric couldn’t help but ask.
“Aiyah, I also want to make more friends…” Audrey immediately smiled shyly. “After all, I’ve already been divorced from my child’s father for a year. I also want to start a new marriage, so I can only…”
“Originally…” Eric couldn’t help but smile, but soon, he felt that something was wrong.
“Wait… Miss Audrey, did you just say that your youngest son is only two months old?” Eric asked.
Audrey nodded. “That’s right!”
Eric felt like he was struck by a bolt out of the blue. “But… you’ve been divorced from your husband for a year.”
“That’s right!” Audrey smiled sweetly. “Is there a problem?”
Eric was speechless.
Audrey pretended to look at him in confusion. Soon, she repeated her shy expression. “Since Mr. Eric wants to dance with me so much, I’ll dance with you for a while. However, I only have ten minutes… I might have to leave later.”
Seeing Audrey reach out to him, Eric stood up in fright.
Audrey pretended to look at him in confusion.
Eric retreated. “Miss Audrey… I suddenly remembered that I have something on. I’ll take my leave first. Sorry…”
Without waiting for Audrey to speak, Eric fled!
Audrey couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh as she watched him leave.
She rarely teased people, but Audrey found the situation today very interesting.
Anyway, she had no intention of making friends here. It didn’t matter if she lied.
Audrey smiled and typed what had just happened into the chat box before sending it to Eric.
Eric, who was far away, saw Audrey’s messages.
Soon, a smile appeared on his expressionless face.
The shareholders in the meeting room couldn’t help but look at each other when they saw Eric like this.
“Continue the meeting,” Eric said in a low voice.
Audrey switched to another area. When she saw that there were snacks on the dining table that she liked, she took them and ate them.
“Miss Audrey.” At this moment, Ollie’s voice sounded. “So you’re here. I’ve been looking for you for a long time.”
Audrey only glanced at him indifferently before asking, “Mr. Ollie? What’s the matter?”
Ollie’s gaze stopped somewhere before he smiled at Audrey. “You scared a gentleman just now.”
