Chapter 27
“Audrey secretly found a master to train, right?” Shawn said.
He rubbed his eyes, afraid he was mistaken.
Once he confirmed that the Audrey in the video was indeed the one he knew, he was even more shocked.
This was the same woman who used to only run after Dylan like a spoiled child.
Dylan knew that the current Audrey had some skills, but he never imagined she would be this good.
Her punches were fierce and decisive.
It had to be said that Audrey was too dazzling to be ignored.
However, deep down in Dylan’s heart, there was an inexplicable twinge.
Andrew couldn’t help but glance at Dylan, sighing inwardly.
Before the video ended, Dylan pursed his lips and took Shawn’s phone, then turned and left with a cold demeanor.
“Hey, hey, hey, that’s my phone,” Shawn shouted desperately from behind.
Dylan didn’t stop and walked out of the club, exuding a compelling aura.
Once in the car, Dylan instructed Richard, “To the hospital.”
In Northville Hospital.
When Audrey arrived, David was already getting his wounds treated.
His eyes, which had been fixed on the door, suddenly lit up when he saw Audrey. There was even a hint of a smile at the corners of his mouth.
“How are you?” Audrey asked as she glanced at the bruises on David’s face and furrowed her brows.
“The doctor said there’s nothing serious, just some superficial injuries. A few days of rest should do the trick,” David replied to Audrey

Audrey nodded.”
Seeing Audrey approaching, Cade couldn’t help but look at her a few more times, recalling the scene on the boxing ring carlier. He took a step back involuntarily.
He was afraid Audrey would hit him.
Before long, Dylan also arrived.
Π
As soon as Dylan appeared, David’s hostility surged again, and he watched Dylan warily.
Ignoring David’s gaze, Dylan looked at Audrey.
“I’ll take you home,” Dylan said coldly.
“No need, I’ll take Audrey home,” David said before Audrey could.
Dylan squinted coldly, his icy gaze sweeping over David. Seeing him standing protectively in front of Audrey irritated him.
“Let’s go.” Audrey ignored Dylan, casting a cold glance at David before walking out.
Seeing Audrey ignore Dylan, David smirked, then gave Dylan a disdainful snort before following Audrey out.
When he was younger, David could only watch helplessly as Audrey was sent to prison by Dylan. Now, even if it cost him his life, David would never let Dylan harm Audrey again.
Dylan pursed his lips, his eyes darkening.
Cade, seeing Dylan like this, suddenly felt a bit sorry for him.

After leaving the hospital, Audrey asked David, “Where do you live?”
David pursed his lips and was silent for a moment, then gave her an address.
Audrey frowned and asked, “Why do you live there?” If she remembered correctly, that place was a slum.
David pursed his lips, said nothing, just lowered his head.
“Speak.” Audrey’s voice turned colder. She remembered she had given David some money back then.

David replied, “After you went to prison, I went to the Hernandez family to ask for help. They beat me up and even used their connections to shut down the orphanage. They took all the money you left me. I had no choice but to find another place to live with Scarlet and the others.” David’s voice grew lower as he spoke.
Scarlet Terrell was the director of the orphanage, and she was also driven out of the orphanage.
Audrey’s aura became even colder as she listened.
She knew it was Rebecca’s and Sarah’s doing.
“Come with me to the hotel first. Tomorrow, I’ll have someone find a place for Scarlet and the others to stay,” Audrey said in a cold tone.
Seeing that Audrey’s expression wasn’t too good, David obediently agreed. He followed her into the car.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Several times, David wanted to ask Audrey where she had been all these years and why she had only come back to find him now, but in the end, he didn’t ask anything.
Audrey didn’t say much either. Her gaze fell on the black car following them, and she pursed her lips slightly.
Stepping on the accelerator, she quickly sped up, wanting to shake off the car behind them.
In the car behind, Richard saw the car in front passing the traffic lights, ready to catch up. But just then, the light turned red, and another car came from the other lane, so he had to brake.
By the time the light turned green, Audrey’s car was nowhere to be seen.
Dylan’s face grew even sullener.
“Let’s go back,” Dylan said.

After parking the car, Audrey directly placed the car keys at the front desk and then took David upstairs.
On the sofa, Brian heard the sound of the door opening, rubbed his eyes, and sat up, complaining, “Audrey, why did you only come back now?”
“Ms. Hernandez, Brian said he would only sleep after you came back.” The maid

“I got
it. Thank you. Go back and rest early.” Audrey nodded and thanked her.
“Ms. Hernandez, you guys rest early too. I’ll leave first,” the maid said before leaving.
David blinked and watched Brian on the sofa, Brian rubbed his eyes and looked at David.
“Audrey, who’s this?” Brian asked.
“He is David.” Audrey introduced the two.
Π
Brian’s eyes lit up as he said, “Nice to meet you, David. I’m Brian. Audrey finally found you.”
David looked at the little boy in front of him who looked quite a bit like Audrey when she was a child, his eyes slightly red. There was no need to ask. The boy must be Audrey’s child.
When he heard Brian say that Audrey had been looking for him for a long time, David’s voice became even hoarser as he said, “Nice to meet you, Brian.”
Never did he expect Audrey to have a child. Over the years, Audrey must have suffered a lot.
The thought made David resent himself even more. He was too young back then to protect Audrey. not being able to protect Audrey.
Brian’s bright eyes blinked as he said seriously, “Audrey, I’m already a big boy. I can’t sleep with ladies anymore. I want to sleep with David.”
Seeing Brian’s well–behaved manner, David felt even more fond of him and hurriedly said, “Audrey, I’ll sleep with Brian.”
Audrey glanced at both of them and then nodded. “Finc.”
“David, let me show you my room.” Brian happily grabbed David’s hand and went to his
room.
After Audrey returned to her room, she called Elizabeth.

On the other end, Elizabeth responded calmly, “Got it, I’ll arrange it.”
