Audrey didn’t refuse. She put on her mask and left.

Elena took Audrey to a restaurant for a meal. She took a sip of her drink and said, “That woman has finally received the punishment she deserves.”

Audrey’s face was expressionless as she nodded silently.

“Honey, be happy.” Elena gently pushed a cup of hot drink in front of her. “Liz can’t hurt you and the people around you anymore. Don’t be sad.”

“Ha, that woman is really crazy sometimes.” Seeing that Audrey was silent, Elena continued, “She always treats me as an imaginary enemy… Sigh, such a woman only has men in her mind. How pitiful.”

Audrey lowered her head and silently drank her drink.

“Ah, right. I remember that your second brother was planning a movie, right? When is your second brother planning to recruit actors?” Elena asked curiously.

Audrey was stunned for a moment. Soon, she sighed slightly.

Elena found it strange. “What now?”

Audrey looked up at Elena’s glasses. “I don’t know what my second brother has been busy with recently, but he hasn’t replied to my messages.”

“Isn’t he home?” Elena was obviously surprised.

Audrey shook her head. “No.”

“Then what is he busy with?” Elena was puzzled. “It seems he has something to do and hasn’t been home. Didn’t he tell you the reason?”

Audrey replied, “My stepfather called him before, but he only said that he was going to work hard. He probably won’t be coming back for the next few years.”

Elena was very surprised. “Isn’t this too sudden? Such a big thing happened to your family, but he suddenly left? And if he wants to work hard, he can stay in the capital. The capital is the most prosperous city in our country.”

Audrey looked out the window gloomily. “Autumn has arrived.”

Elena felt that Audrey was really a little abnormal now.

“Alright, alright.” Elena had no choice but to persuade him. “Your second brother must have his reasons for doing this. He will come back one day, okay?”

Audrey nodded silently.

“What do you plan to do next?” Elena asked curiously. “Do you plan to continue filming or rest for a few days first?”

The entertainment industry was changing very quickly. Of course, Elena still chose to stay in the entertainment industry to film. Otherwise, her status might not be stable.

Anyway, her family background was not low, and she had a lot of resources from which to take her pick.

As for Audrey, she has different thoughts.

“I’ll rest for a while first,” Audrey said. “I’ve been filming all year. I don’t think I’ve had a good time.”

“Okay.” Elena smiled. “I’ll support any decision you make.”

Audrey temporarily withdrew from the entertainment industry.

She didn’t care about Eric’s matter for the time being. The most important thing now was how she would comfort Charlotte.

Charlotte was much quieter than before and didn’t like to talk. She spent most of her time cooped up in her room.

Audrey would sometimes go to her room to talk to her, but Charlotte basically ignored her. Instead, she stared blankly at the scenery outside the window.

If it weren’t for Liz, Audrey wouldn’t even know that Charlotte had suffered from depression.

She was undoubtedly very sensitive now. Audrey didn’t dare to mention getting a psychiatrist to treat her.

Audrey bought a lot of colored papers to fold paper airplanes in Charlotte’s room.

“Sis, do you like red planes?” Audrey asked as she picked up a piece of red colored paper.

Charlotte turned her head slightly, but very quickly, she shifted her gaze back to the window.

Audrey wasn’t angry. Instead, she smiled as she fiddled with the things in her hand.

She even started singing.

Charlotte was slightly moved.

“The song you’re singing sounds rather familiar.” After so many days, Charlotte finally spoke to Audrey.

Audrey’s expression didn’t change as she replied casually, “You find it familiar too, right? Sister, you taught me this song in junior high school.”

When Audrey was in her first year of junior high school, Anthea brought her to marry Gary.

It was also at that time that Audrey’s life underwent an earth-shattering change. She could even enter the aristocratic school where Charlotte and the others were studying.

In high school, Charlotte and Audrey weren’t emotionally stable and their relationship wasn’t good.

Later on, something happened, and the tense relationship between the two eased a little.
