Hence, Audrey narrated the scandal’s intricate details to Anthea, starting from the very beginning. As she recounted the incident where Jerry’s disheveled attire had been covertly photographed, a faint smile graced Audrey’s lips. “It’s truly unfortunate for Jerry. He thought he was getting wool but ended up

“It’s truly unfortunate for Jerry. He thought he was getting wool but ended up being shorn himself. Eventually, he got ensnared in the whole mess. Initially, I had no intentions of taking any action against him. I didn’t want to rekindle our past disagreements. However, he persisted, pushing me to my limits. I had no choice but to outplay him at his own game.”

Audrey described the situation casually, but as Anthea listened, unease began to creep over her. Eventually, tears welled up in her eyes.

“I never expected Jerry to be so bold, ” Anthea remarked. “Thank goodness

Abner supported you and didn’t cover up for him. It’s just that dealing with Caroline won’t be easy. I fear she might create trouble for you when I’m not around. ”

Audrey remained unperturbed. “Mom, don’t worry. You heard what happened in the living room. Big Brother is firmly on my side, even declaring me part of his family. You can’t imagine how happy I felt when I heard that!”

Anthea finally smiled through her tears. “I can see that your relationships with Abner and the others have significantly improved recently. In the past, not even Eric paid much attention to your affairs, let alone Abner. Audrey, I’m genuinely relieved to see you becoming more sensible.”

Audrey had always relied on her status as a Lance family member, both at home and in public, often engaging in fierce competition. There were even faint signs of rivalry with Abner and others for a share of the family assets. Anthea was heartened to witness Audrey’s newfound sensibility and restraint, recognizing that she was no longer casually challenging her own family.

As if struck by a revelation, Anthea offered Audrey a sincere piece of advice. “Audrey, I need you to understand that you’re now an adult. Regardless of the circumstances, you must grasp the current situation and distinguish right from wrong. This includes being exceptionally cautious when choosing your friends.”

As she spoke, Audrey’s phone suddenly rang.

Instinctively, Audrey unlocked her phone and was pleasantly surprised to find that Uncle Gary had transferred two million yuan to her!

Accompanying the generous sum was a message from Uncle Gary: “You’ve suffered through this ordeal. If you ever encounter similar situations in the future, don’t hesitate to reach out to your family.”

Anthea also leaned in to read the message. When she saw the content, her eyes couldn’t help but curve. “Your Uncle Gary still cares about you very much.”

Certainly, ever since Audrey had joined the Lance Family at the age of 15 upon her marriage to Anthea, Gary, although not bound by blood, had always provided generously for her, especially in terms of pocket money. He treated all the children equally.

However, this generous support became the reason for Audrey’s growing arrogance and obstinacy, to the point where she began coveting family assets. Anthea had feared that her inexperienced daughter might one day become a pawn in the struggle for power.

Now, as Audrey continually exhibited self-restraint and displayed genuine concern for others, Anthea couldn’t help but feel overjoyed.

Her sole wish was for Audrey to lead a peaceful life, and with everything moving in a positive direction, Anthea’s mood had improved significantly over the past few days.

After Audrey replied “Thank you, Uncle Gary” on her phone, she turned to her mother and said, “Mom, I’ve heard you loud and clear. I’ll be extra cautious from now on.”

Anthea let out a sigh of relief and advised, “And as for Linda, please steer clear of her. What was she thinking? Trying to frame you with Jerry is beyond despicable. Thankfully, you remained vigilant. If anything had happened to you, I don’t Imow how I could have faced the consequences!”

The mere thought of Linda’s attempt to drug Audrey left Anthea incensed.

Audrey was her only daughter. If Linda had successfully tarnished Audrey’s reputation, she would have fought Linda to the death.

Audrey naturally knew this logic.

The original host of the body had a rather superficial connection with Linda, so it was only natural that their friendship would eventually fall apart. As Audrey reminisced about how Linda had taken advantage of their relationship,
