Meeting The One For Me ( Nathan Franklin )
Chapter 204

Chapter 204

Audrey noticed that Ryan was acting out of character today.

Teetering between nervousness and embarrassment, she raised her head to look him in the eyes. “Are you going to leave the Lambert family soon? Is that why you’re asking this?

Hearing that, he let out a low chuckle. “As I said, you’re smart.”

“Where will you go?” The question was asked before she knew it.

He embraced her closer to him. “Why? You can’t let go of me?”

She placed her hand on his chest, creating a space between them. She asked concernedly, “When will you leave? Does Mr. Lambert Senior know about this? Did you talk to him?”

“There will be an announcement at his birthday party this month. I will leave after the party ends, and yes, he knows.”

“You can’t leave!” She grabbed his shirt. “Lambert Corporation still needs you. A–And you’re closer to him than I am. I can tell that he cares for you dearly!”

Memories from four years ago suddenly struck Audrey. It was when Ryan brought her back to the villa in Sheysea City.

When she headed downstairs to get water, Ryan was speaking to George over the phone.

Ryan had revealed to George that she was the true member of the Lambert family.

“Are you doing this because of me? Are you trying to return my family to me because I share the same blood as them? I’ve never desired Lambert Corporation. Not even once!” She explained anxiously.

In the face of her anxiety, he couldn’t help but plant a peck on her lips.

He said in a whisper, “It’s the other way around. I want to return your family and

Lambert Corporation to you because I want to leave.”

Before this, George disagreed with the idea of Audrey–one of the Lamberts–returning

to the Yeomans family.

Now, Audrey wasn’t the only family George had. He also had Dallas and Lily.

Ryan could finally leave with peace of mind.

“What happens after that? Will you still keep in touch with the Lambert family and Mr. Lambert Senior?” Audrey asked.

“I won’t cut ties with the Lambert family after I leave. Your stance is important in this.” Ryan wore a meaningful smile. “What happens after this depends on how you’re going to deal with our relationship.”

She dropped her gaze downward, unable to look at him. Her heart was pounding fast.

“I love you, Audrey…” His thumb caressed the nape of her neck and he kissed her again, lightly this time.

Resting his forehead against hers, he confessed softly, “You have all the time to consider this before the birthday party. If you decide to break up, we can divorce. If you’re willing to be with me…”

Unable to hold himself in, he locked her lips with his again and hugged her tightly.

The rest remained unsaid. He secured her head by holding the back of her head and kissed her until her tongue went numb.

If Audrey’s feelings gave her enough reasons to stay with him forever, he wouldn’t hide his overflowing love and admiration for her.

“R–Ryan.” She did her best to mask her quivering voice and wore a composed

expression. But that didn’t do a thing to scare him..

“You want it?” He pushed a strand of hair away from the corner of her lips.

Again, he captured her rosy lips.

“Do you want to have sex with me?” His voice was hoarse.

Audrey’s heart was threatening to jump out of her chest. She was on the verge of losing her mind and her breathing was ragged.

It didn’t take long before her primal instincts prevailed over her rationality, Wrapping her arms around Ryan’s neck, she initiated a kiss herself this time. “Yes…”

That one word freed the beast in him from the cage. He reciprocated the kiss with more passion as though he was trying to crush her into him.

He swept her up off her feet and headed to the bedroom.

The door slammed shut and the lights remained turned on in the living room. The water tap wasn’t turned off tightly, leaving the water dripping all night long.

The next day, Audrey woke up in waves of soreness. Even lifting her arms were made impossible.

The curtains were drawn.

She checked the time on her phone. It was almost 11:00 am,

calls.

and she missed dozens of

Ryan left a note on the bedside table, which read, ‘I turned on the silence mode on your phone. Get a good rest. Breakfast is in the kitchen. I’m off to work and will come back to have dinner together.”

Audrey grabbed a robe and put it on, sliding her feet into the slippers.

As soon as she stood up, her knees gave out, and she flopped back on the bed.
