Chapter 202 A Price for Staying Away

Better to get this over with now, so I don’t end up with unnecessary trouble later.

Early the next morning, Nina headed out bright and early.

Inside the café, Audrey was already waiting.

Nina walked over. “Ms. Beaumont, you wanted to see me?”

“You’re Nina, right?” Audrey smiled softly. “I’ve heard Jensen talk about you before. He says you’re a good friend of his.”

“Hardly a good friend. Just old high school classmates.”

“I also heard Jensen stayed at your family’s place for a while. I wanted to thank you for that.”

“No need. That’s all in the past. Did you ask to meet me for something specific?”

With Nina being so direct, Audrey didn’t beat around the bush. She pulled a business card out of her purse and held it out

“For my thanks, I’d like you to have this.”

Nina glanced at the card. It was the contact info for a big-name director. She smiled faintly. “What’s this for?”

“I know you did really well in the entertainment industry overseas,” Audrey said. “But you haven’t gotten much attention or work since coming back. My family runs a studio, and this director’s one of our top talents. I thought you might find this useful.

Nina shook her head. “I’m afraid you’ve got the wrong idea. I came back to stay away from the entertainment industry entires. don’t need this.”

Audrey frowned. “You’re stunningly beautiful. If you’re not here to act, what are you planning to do? Modeling? I can help with ther too.”

“Is that all you wanted to talk about?” Nina said. “If so, I’m leaving.”

She stood up to go. Audrey jumped to her feet right away.

“Nina! Jensen’s known you since you were kids. But just because your family helped him once, you can’t trap him here in Linhalt forever!”

“I don’t know what rumors you’ve heard,” Nina said calmly. “But Jensen staying here has nothing to do with my family if you! worried he’s hiding something from you, why not just ask him directly why he won’t go back to Halmont?”

Nina turned to leave. Before she could step out, two bodyguards blocked the doorway

Audrey walked over and stood right in front of her. “I’ll be straight. I know your family’s loaded. But if you stay away from i for good, my family will shower you with endless favors.”

Nina’s brows pulled together

Halmont was way richer than Linholt, and the Beaumonts were one of its most powerful families. The Tamps were 60p-back set Linholt, but Halmont was full of big players. The Beaumonts had been there for decades, solut and infidential they Mindray

But still… Audrey was way too condescending.

Just then, Nina spotted Jensen rushing toward the café. He was about to push open the glass door. She deliberately spoke up “What kind of favors are you talking about?”

“We’ll fund all your family’s projects,” Audrey said proudly. “If you ever need capital, my brother can help. We’ve got endless opportunities-pick any, your family’s fortune will double. And if you wanna retire and never work again? I’ll cover all your expenses for the rest of your life.”

Nina almost laughed.

Typical rich family move-throwing money around like it’s nothing.

She glanced at Jensen, still lingering outside. “Thanks for the offer. I’ll keep my distance from Jensen from now on.”

“Not just keep your distance!” Audrey snapped. “I mean cut off all contact!”

Her tone was sharp, almost commanding.

That’s when Jensen shoved the glass door open. The little bell jingled loudly. Audrey jumped and spun around-only to standing there, face cold as ice.
