The price of betrayal (Jack and Ashley) novel Chapter 190

Things had been fine until now, so Nolan found it weird that Audrey suddenly wanted to cut ties with him.

"Did you just say Audrey wants to cut ties with me? Did you mishear, Blake?"

Blake swore to the heavens, "Mr. Greene, I wouldn't dare lie to you. Once I realized it was about you, I listened intently before calling you about it.

"Audrey really did say that, and Megan and the others were extremely pleased. But they didn't seem satisfied. It looked like they plan on making things difficult for you.

"As for Audrey, I think there is something else she's dealing with. It doesn't seem like she genuinely wants to leave you, but I can't tell why for now. If you'd like to know, I can try looking into it."

Nolan fell silent for a moment before he responded, "No need. Audrey must have her reasons. If this is not what she really wants, then someone's forcing her.

"You don't need to do anything, Blake. Thanks for telling me. You've done well. Keep it up—don't let Mr. Norwich Senior down."

With that, Nolan ended the call, leaving Blake flushed with pride at the compliment.

Nolan's eyes narrowed as he thought to himself, "Who could it be? And for what reason? Hah! Trying to force Audrey to leave me?

"It's Kara's birthday party. It wouldn't be appropriate to attempt something like that. It would also disrupt her coming-of-age celebration. We should just forget about it.

"Besides, it's not necessary. Isn't it better to part on decent terms?" Audrey shook her head, hoping to turn down this plan.

But Kara interjected excitedly, "Audrey, I think that would be the best birthday gift ever. We would not only punish a villain, but you could also reconcile with Megan and stand united. I think it's perfect!

"I agree to the plan, so it's decided. In fact, I'll go visit Nolan myself later and deliver the invitation letter personally. I'm sure he wouldn't miss it for the world!" Kara chortled.
