“Officer, this is just a friend of my sister’s, truly. My sister isn’t in good shape right now. We need to get to the hospital as soon as possible,” Tina said anxiously, supporting Linda.

The expressions on the sisters’ faces seemed genuine, and the police officer shared their concern. He decided it was best to leave quickly with the culprit and victim.

In any case, if Linda chose to file a case in the future, an investigation would be necessary. At that point, they could determine if Audrey had any involvement in the matter.

With that, the large group of people left the hotel, leaving Audrey and Evans alone.

The surroundings fell silent, and Audrey noticed that Evans had been holding her wrist.

She gently struggled and whispered, “Thank you for your help, Mr. Hill. You can let go now.”

Embarrassment flashed across Evans’ face very quickly.

He released her wrist, and replied, “Now that the excitement is over, I’ll take you back.”

Evans didn’t use much strength, but his grip was strong to begin with. After holding it for such a long time, Audrey felt her wrist heat up.

It had probably turned red. Hopefully, it wouldn’t swell up.

She gently rubbed her aching wrist and couldn’t help but complain in her heart.

[Even though he was helping me, his grip was quite strong. My wrist feels hot and painful now.]

Evans was taken aback. He hadn’t anticipated this outcome at all. He had limited experience interacting with women, let alone assisting them in such situations.

He had been focused on the task, but he didn’t expect to unintentionally hurt her.

Women’s skin was more delicate than men’s, after all.

“Sorry,” Evans said, lowering his gaze and examining Audrey’s wrist, genuinely apologetic.

Audrey quickly withdrew her hand and put it behind her back, wearing a smile.

“It’s alright. It doesn’t hurt at all.”

Evans: .

“I’ll send you to the hospital,” Evans insisted.

Audrey looked at him in surprise and protested, “No need, really. It’s not that painful. I can just apply some ice when I get home.”

[This seems a bit exaggerated. Do I really need to go to the hospital for a pinched wrist? I’m not that delicate; it’s not like I’m a princess. Falling during filming isn’t that big a deal.]

Evans smiled, gaining insight into why Abner had been returning to the old residence recently.

Having someone like Audrey around at home must make things quite interesting.

He couldn’t help but wonder if Abner could see the thought bubbles above Audrey’s head.

Perhaps he should ask him the next time he meets him.

But if Abner couldn’t see them and only he could, wouldn’t he come off as lunatic if he had asked?

An internal conflict of such difficulty was rare for Evans. He found it more challenging than making a multi-billion-dollar investment. contemporary romance

“Then I’ll send you home,” Evans said.

Audrey quickly declined, saying, “There’s no need. I’ll just take a taxi.”

[Why do you keep insisting on sending me home? It’s not like I don’t know the way home.]

For him, when he cared about someone, he would go to great lengths to protect them. He couldn’t bear to see her caught up in such a situation and getting hurt.

“Let’s go. Consider it an opportunity for me to apologize for my impulsiveness earlier,” Evans suggested.

This time, Audrey was completely speechless. She didn’t blame Evans at all. After all, Evans was helping her.

Unable to refuse, Audrey could only take Evans’s car home.

Evans’s assistant, Kevin, drove. Audrey sat in the backseat while Evans occupied the front passenger seat.

Along the way, no one spoke. Kevin had asked for Audrey’s address at the beginning, and aside from that, silence reigned.

Occasionally, Evans would glance at Audrey through the rearview mirror. Audrey leaned back in her seat, her eyes closed, a weariness evident on her face.

She had rushed straight to the hotel from the set today.

After filming for half a day and fighting with Linda, she felt utterly exhausted.

However, she did not dare to let herself fall asleep and remained awake.

While it would make sense for Audrey to initiate a conversation, considering Evans had helped her and was now driving her home, she found herself hesitant to engage in small talk. She preferred to avoid situations where she would grow too familiar with someone.

That was precisely what she tried her best to avoid..
