My Stand-In Groom Is A Secret Tycoon (Audrey) novel Chapter 312

Knowing that she might have overstepped with her previous actions, she took the initiative to kiss the corner of his mouth. This should have been discussed earlier, not dropped on him at the last minute.

Alistair's face was tense, his green, deep-set eyes exuding a brooding aura, making it hard to understand his emotions.

Audrey was uncertain, her voice softer. "I don't want to rely on a child to make your family accept me. We're still young, so why not wait a couple of years?"

In this situation, Alistair couldn't bear to tell her "no".

He held her close, kissing her softly. Though reluctant, he could only agree.

A night of indulgence. The next morning, Audrey woke up with the sun already high in the sky.

Getting up, she noticed the mess in the trash can, and her cheeks flushed red again.

Maybe it was because they hadn't seen each other for a few days, but Alistair was especially rough last night.

In the end, she passed out on the window seat, her eyes red and swollen, and her knees scraped.

Before she fell asleep, she vaguely remembered him carrying her to the bathroom, bathing her, and then placing a warm towel on her eyes.

So her body wasn't too uncomfortable, just terribly drained, with no energy to move.

Alistair had already gone to work, but not before making her some porridge and keeping it warm in the cooker.

After eating, Audrey went to check on Sunny.

His emotions were still unstable, and it was clear he hadn't slept well last night, with dark circles under his eyes.

Moreover, she could feel that he was relying on her even more.

After getting out of bed, she noticed his gaze following her everywhere, looking helpless and pitiful.

To comfort Sunny, Audrey moved her work home, leaving the non-essential tasks to Michael and Emily.

During the day, she would play games with him, and at night, she would tell him stories.

Even though they didn't go out, they weren't bored.

In her free time, Audrey prepared for next week's Supergalactic Idol contest.

Since she decided to participate in the contest, she knew she had to show her true abilities.
