Chapter 200
“Are you
with my
mom?” Dallas‘ voice came through the phone.
Ryan glanced back at Audrey and replied, “Yes.”
“Don’t you dare bully my mom! I haven’t accepted you as our dad yet!”
“Okay, don’t worry. I won’t bully your mom.” Ryan smiled faintly.
On Audrey’s phone screen, Lily waved to Audrey. “Mommy, you should rest early! We’ll video chat with you tomorrow. Where’s Dallas… Huh? Dallas?”
Lily called out, “Dallas, do you want to say goodbye to Mommy?”
“It’s okay, Dallas is probably out. Behave yourselves! Mommy will hang up now.”
Audrey’s voice was gentle.
“Okay! Goodbye, Mommy.”
After ending the call, Audrey clenched her phone tightly and looked up to meet Ryan’s. smiling eyes.
“Dallas called me to say I should take care of you.”
“No wonder he wasn’t around.” Audrey stood up, still holding her phone.
“I’ll sleep in the guest room tonight–is that okay?” Ryan asked.
“I’m fine, you don’t have to stay to take care of me.”
Ryan draped his vest over his arm, not giving Audrey a chance to refuse. “I feel a little. dizzy from all the drinking. Are my clothes in the guest room?”
Audrey nodded. “Yes, they’re still there.”
“Then I’ll go take a shower first,” Ryan said as he headed toward the guest room.
Audrey pursed her lips, feeling a tingling sensation. Only then did she realize that her lips were swollen from Ryan’s kiss.
She couldn’t deceive herself.
When Ryan was holding and kissing her, the intense sensation left Audrey feeling confused and infatuated.

No, perhaps every time Ryan kissed her, she couldn’t resist. His masculine scent and the heat of his strong body would make her tremble uncontrollably.
Audrey recalled their first night together. The image of Ryan’s prominent hands gripping
the pillow, the bulging veins as he pressed her against the door and kissed her
passionately in the darkness.
Audrey’s whole body was burning up.
She rushed back to the master bedroom in her slippers and took a cool shower.
When she finished showering, she received a video call request from Jessica.
“Audrey, even with the same dosage, the experimental data we’ve collected differs from what the quantum computer generated.” Jessica’s voice sounded somewhat impatient. “I don’t know where the problem lies.”
“Let me take a look. Don’t worry for now,” Audrey said, observing the dark circles under Jessica’s eyes.
“You haven’t had any rest for a long time, right? Go get some sleep. I’ll review the experimental video. You can work on it again once we find the cause.”
