My Stand-In Groom Is A Secret Tycoon (Audrey)

Meanwhile, Violet, having just finished some experiments, walked out of the lab, rubbing her shoulders.

After returning home, she barely had time to rest before being taken to the lab for experiments.

Lately, all she had been doing was focusing on experimental data, eating, and sleeping, completely unaware of everything happening outside.

Just as Violet left the lab, eager to breathe in some fresh air, her phone buzzed inside her dust-proof bag.

As soon as the call connected, the tiredness in Violet's eyes vanished, and she exclaimed, "Audrey!"

Violet grinned and asked, "How did you find out I had today off? Is it possible you're reading my mind?"

Audrey hesitated for a moment, feeling a little guilty.

So much had happened recently and she hadn't contacted Violet in a long time; she only knew that Violet had gone into the lab and hadn't expected her to come out until today. Audrey apologized, "Sorry, Violet, I've been really busy lately."

Violet understood it and said, "It's okay. Just treat me to a nice dinner and I'll forgive you."

Audrey replied, "Dinner's definitely on me, and I was also hoping to ask for your help with something."

Violet playfully scolded, "Oh, I see how it is. You remember me when you need something. Heartless girl! So, what do you need my help with?"

Audrey bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and said awkwardly, "Violet, you're more experienced at romance. I wanted to ask you how to surprise a guy?"

After a brief pause, Violet's shout came through the phone, "Audrey!

"You traitor! It's been so long since we talked, and now you're calling me because of a man?" When Violet got mad, she was harsh and left Audrey with no opportunity to defend herself.

She scolded, "Audrey, how many times do I need to remind you? Men are replaceable, but true friends are forever. Every time you start dating someone, you prioritize them above everything else. You're going to end up getting hurt."

Audrey knew Violet meant well, so she agreed and apologized, "It won't happen again. Sorry, Violet. I was wrong.

"How about this? I'll treat you to the most expensive cuisine in Riverdale, for a whole three days and nights. Please have mercy and forgive me?"

Violet raised an eyebrow and

scoffed, "Fine, I'll forgive you for now because of the feast. But you said you would introduce your guy to me.

She? Don't tell me he's too

shy to meet me."

Audrey explained, "No way. He's just really busy with work."

Violet didn't believe it at all and remarked, "Stop giving me excuses. Even Mr. Alistair Hayes has time for dating, so is your guy busier than him?"

Violet hadn't been online much lately, but she had a senior who loved surfing the web for gossip.

The senior told Violet all sorts of news, including rumors about Alistair starting a new relationship.

However, he didn't tell Violet about Audrey's news because he knew that Violet considered Audrey her best friend.

If Violet found out Audrey was in a hard time, she wouldn't even continue the experiment.noveldrama

When Audrey heard Violent mention Alistair in a relationship, she felt guilty and kept quiet. Audrey didn't know how to tell Violet that Alistair was actually her husband.

Violet's tone became firm as she insisted, "Anyway, you have to bring him to meet me tonight. I want to see what's so appealing about him that makes you go to such lengths and even plan surprises to please him."

Audrey thought about it. She had promised to introduce Alistair to Violet.

However, many things occurred in the meantime, and Violet was occupied with her experiments. Consequently, neither Violet nor Alistair had the time to meet. While meeting now wouldn't be impossible, Audrey had some concerns.
