Chapter 279
Although George had instructed not to disclose that Audrey was the founder of Evergreen Biotech, secrets couldn’t be kept forever.
“Selling you that plot of land is a way to ask for your help in persuading Ryan to marry me as soon as possible,” Cecilia added.
Seeing Audrey fall silent, Cecilia continued, “I know what you’re thinking. While it may
you once you enter the Lambert Corporation, you’ll have to seem like Ryan will trai compete with him in the future.
“I believe Mr. Lambert Senior placing you under Ryan’s supervision is also intended to let you both compete for power to see who will ultimately be the best successor! You’re worried that if I marry Ryan, we’ll become enemies.”
“I’m not concerned about that,” came Audrey’s reply.
Audrey was well aware that Ryan didn’t want the Lambert Corporation at all.
Plus, if it weren’t for George, Audrey wouldn’t have entered the Lambert Corporation herself.
Evergreen Biotech was more than enough for her.
But Cecilia–who didn’t know the truth–didn’t think so.
She was just speculating about the relationship between Audrey and Ryan.
“Yes, you and Ryan are relatives, and Ryan has indeed been very good to you.
“When you became comatose, your ex–husband’s family abandoned you and left you in the hospital without a word. It was Ryan who didn’t give up on you and transferred you to a friend’s hospital. He even covered all your medical expenses and visited you at the hospital every week.”
She added, “For you, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call Ryan your adoptive parent. I understand how you feel!”
Cecilia had investigated Audrey four years ago, so she knew this information. There were even some bits that Audrey herself didn’t know.
Hearing Cecilia’s words, Audrey restrained her surprise and gazed steadily at Cecilia.
“But people change, Audrey–especially when there’s significant benefit at stake! Back then, you and Ryan were relatives, and there wasn’t conflict of interest, so Ryan did everything he
could to take care of you.
“But now you’re Ryan’s competitor! He’ll use your gratitude against you, and he’ll also be wary of you. Thus, you must quickly build your power within the Lambert Corporation. As someone with experience, I hope you’ll take my advice to heart.
Cecilia was once saved by her eldest sister when she was young, and she was grateful to her.
In fact, Cecillia’s decision to enter the Shaw Corporation was initially to help her eldest sister overcome her second sister and secure her inheritance rights.
But what happened later?
Cecilia gradually gained her father’s affection, which made her eldest sister uneasy, leading her to repeatedly plot against Cecilia.
