He shouted excitedly, &#8220;Here comes the lobster!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Just as he finished shouting, his sleeve was caught by the doorknob.<\/p>\n<p>The plate of lobster fell to the ground.<\/p>\n<p>He had been waiting long for the lobster and now they all fell to the ground. This was a terrible blow to Grady.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Oh, my lobster, my lobster! How can you leave me like this?&#8221; He said, holding his head in his hands.<\/p>\n<p>Grady squatted down. He gently stroked the lobster&#8217;s abdomen. He looked so sad.<\/p>\n<p>Looking at this scene, everyone in the room looked at each other. Then, everyone looked at Audrey.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey felt their gaze and smiled awkwardly.<\/p>\n<p>She wondered why she became friends with Audrey back then. He was such an idiot.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Well, my taste was not good.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Grady, who was squatting on the ground, thought that Audrey was talking about Julian. He stood up and complained excitedly. &#8220;Your taste isn&#8217;t just &#8216;not good&#8217; It&#8217;s terrible. Julian is a real scum.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey felt speechless.<\/p>\n<p>Bryson&#8217;s gaze changed slightly. Audrey noticed it and hurriedly stopped Grady.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Grady, why don&#8217;t you order another one? When I came up just now, there was only one lobster left!&#8221; Audrey reminded.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ll go now!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Grady was distracted by her words, and then he quickly walked out.<\/p>\n<p>After Grady left, everyone stopped talking about Julian.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey knew that Bryson minded Julian.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Halfway through the meal, Bryson stood up, &#8220;You eat it first. I&#8217;m going to the bathroom.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey watched Bryson leave.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey was absent-minded. After Bryson went out for a while, she also put down her chopsticks.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I go to the bathroom.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey stood up and walked out.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey did not enter the bathroom. She waited outside the men&#8217;s bathroom.<\/p>\n<p>Not long after, Bryson came out.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Why are you here?&#8221; Bryson looked at her in surprise.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey blinked.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I miss you!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Bryson&#8217;s eyes turned deeper, and he couldn&#8217;t help but kiss her.<\/p>\n<p>Before his lips landed on Audrey&#8217;s, Audrey dodged.<\/p>\n<p>A trace of displeasure flashed across Bryson&#8217;s eyes.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey explained, &#8220;This is the bathroom. There are so many people here. I&#8217;ll make it up to you when we get back.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Bryson&#8217;s voice was hoarse, and his gaze was burning, &#8220;Then let&#8217;s go back?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey didn&#8217;t answer him.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They are waiting for us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Bryson&#8217;s voice was slightly hoarse, &#8220;What happened?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Bryson.&#8221; Audrey bit her lower lip, &#8220;I have something to tell you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey felt that it was better to explain to Bryson about Julian.<\/p>\n<p>James rolled his eyes at him.<\/p>\n<p>Bryson wouldn&#8217;t agree to give him the project if George hadn&#8217;t said that he would take care of Bryson and Audrey&#8217;s wedding banquet,<\/p>\n<p>A man in love!<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>In the afternoon, Audrey and the others left the restaurant. Audrey sensitively discovered that there were more people in the Jade Water Lake, and most of them were women.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey didn&#8217;t know if this is her illusion.<\/p>\n<p>Her hands were stained with something. She went to the bathroom to wash her hands.<\/p>\n<p>When she entered, she saw a few dressed girls mending their makeup.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I heard that Bryson was in the Jade Water Lake. I didn&#8217;t believe it at first. I didn&#8217;t expect that Bryson really came here.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He is even more handsome than on TV. My legs were trembling when I saw him. What should I do?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Calm down. He might not give you a look no matter how excited you are.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Your makeup was so heavy. How could he notice you?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Stop! We&#8217;ve all agreed to compete fairly. It&#8217;s no use for us to fight here. It&#8217;s up to Bryson.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yes. Bryson is so handsome. I would be satisfied if he gives me a glance!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You are hopeless.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey was speechless.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, it wasn&#8217;t her illusion that there were more girls. These girls were here to rob her of Bryson.<\/p>\n<p>Snatching her man away was impossible.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey&#8217;s eyes revealed a dangerous light.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-3503","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/3503","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=3503"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
