You lied to me? You don&#8217;t want to be with me?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Of course not!&#8221; Audrey was afraid that Bryson would misunderstand her. She explained seriously, &#8220;You know better than anyone else about Grandma&#8217;s physical condition. She can&#8217;t withstand the blow. Will she be okay if you tell her that I&#8217;m not your sister, and Elliana is already dead?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Bryson was lost for words.<\/p>\n<p>Seeing that Bryson didn&#8217;t say anything, Audrey continued, &#8220;Even if you want to explain it to Grandma, now is not the right time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Bryson could not refute Audrey&#8217;s words, which were to the point.<\/p>\n<p>He suddenly regretted that he had passed Audrey off as his sister.<\/p>\n<p>Although they were lovers now, they still had to pretend to be siblings for the sake of Kylee.<\/p>\n<p>Bryson held Audrey in his arms.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But you will be wronged if I don&#8217;t tell the truth.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey clung close to Bryson with content. &#8220;Grandma loves me so much. And I treat her as my biological grandma. For her sake, I don&#8217;t feel wronged at all. What&#8217;s more, I got such an excellent boyfriend because of her. I should thank her instead.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Bryson hugged Audrey even tighter.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Give me some time. I will arrange everything as soon as possible. And then you can be with me above board.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Okay.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Actually, Audrey didn&#8217;t want others to know she was dating Bryson now. Another reason was that she hadn&#8217;t taken revenge yet. If her relationship with Bryson was made public, it was inconvenient for her to take revenge as Bryson&#8217;s girlfriend.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>The next morning, Audrey and Bryson opened the door at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Good morning!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Good morning!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>They almost spoke in unison.<\/p>\n<p>With that, they looked at each other and smiled. Just as they were about to say something, Kylee opened the door in the next room.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey controlled her emotions right away. And she walked to Kylee&#8217;s side with worry.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Grandma, you don&#8217;t look well. How are you? Is there anything wrong with you?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Nothing much. I just didn&#8217;t sleep well last night. I&#8217;m fine. Don&#8217;t worry!&#8221; Kylee held Audrey&#8217;s hand tightly. &#8220;I&#8217;m always dreaming. I dreamt that you were swept away by water and never came back. I was so scared that I woke up several times in the middle of the night. If something did happen to you, I would not forgive myself.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey fell into silence.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey couldn&#8217;t help but console Kylee, &#8220;Grandma, I&#8217;m safe now. It was just a dream, which wasn&#8217;t real.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kylee sighed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yes, it wasn&#8217;t real. My dear granddaughter is fine now!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey stared at Kylee, feeling guilty and remorseful.<\/p>\n<p>If &#8230; if Kylee knew that Audrey was not her granddaughter, how sad would she be?<\/p>\n<p>At this time, the waiter brought breakfast over. Bryson interrupted the two women&#8217;s conversation.<\/p>\n<p>After all, with Audrey by Kylee&#8217;s side, Bryson was always the one to be disdained. He had been used to it.<\/p>\n<p>In the morning, Bryson and Audrey took Kylee to go fishing and then had a barbecue. In the afternoon, they went back to Peace City.<\/p>\n<p>Inside the Cordova Mansion&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Kylee&#8217;s screams made the servants tremble in fear.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What? You want to move back? You live well at home. Why do you move back?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Grandma, we have talked about this. There was something wrong with my house before. Now the problem has been solved. So I have to move back.&#8221; Audrey tried her best to persuade Kylee.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey heard that Lance had returned to Pine City today. Therefore, no one would threaten her anymore, and she no longer needed to stay in the Cordova Mansion.<\/p>\n<p>Kylee was speechless.<\/p>\n<p>Kylee looked at Bryson hopefully, expecting that he would persuade Audrey to stay.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Bryson, you don&#8217;t want Elliana to move out and live alone, do you?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Bryson raised his eyebrows slightly and said meaningfully, &#8220;Actually, I think this is a good opportunity for Elliana to be independent. Elliana, go up to pack your luggage. I&#8217;ll see you off.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Okay!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kylee got speechless again.<\/p>\n<p>Kylee returned to her room with anger.<\/p>\n<p>When Audrey was packing in her room, her door was opened from outside. Bryson walked into the room and locked the door.<\/p>\n<p>Seeing Audrey folding her clothes, Bryson walked over to her and hugged her from behind.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Let go of me. I&#8217;m packing!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Please console me before I let go of you.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-3479","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/3479","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3479"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
