The price of betrayal (Jack and Ashley) novel Chapter 181

"Mr. Baxter, you flatter me. I'm sorry, but I can't accept you. I like Nolan, and I've told you about it," Audrey said.

When Shaun heard her reply, he shook his head. "I know you like Nolan, but I also wish to express my feelings for you. Besides, you haven't gotten together with Nolan, have you?

"Maybe he isn't interested in you. If he likes you, he should make his relationship with you official. I know that you think I'm nothing compared to him. But my feelings for you are real, Audrey. I'm willing to do everything for you. Trust me. Give me a chance. Give this a try, okay?

"I promise I'll never let you down."

Audrey wondered if it was possible to try things out. However, she shook her head firmly and rejected him right away.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Baxter. Even if Nolan doesn't like me, I still like him. Also, I've been fond of him for a long time, and my feelings will never change. So, don't waste your time on me.

"You're the son of the Baxter family and have a good reputation. You can get any woman you like. You… You should look for someone else. I'll leave first if there's nothing else." After saying that, Audrey was about to leave.

Right then, Shaun gritted his teeth and asked, "What if Nolan dies? Are you going to stay single forever for him then? Would you give me a chance if Nolan is gone?

"Audrey, I mean it. I'm not joking with you."

His words caught Audrey's attention. She stopped in her tracks, and her expression changed drastically in an instant.

Audrey thought the Baxter family was Nolan's backing. He had only been safe and overcome all crises because of the Baxters' help.
