Meeting The One For Me

Chapter 39
“Harper.
The sound of tapping came from the other end of the call.
Harper couldn't speak so they primarily communicated through messages. When
they were on a call, Harper responded by tapping on the microphone.
“Aunt Anne... and I will be back tonight.”
Harper was alone. Audrey wasn't ready to tell her about Anne’s passing.
“Tap, tap.
Audrey couldn't hold back her tears any longer. She told Harper, “I have some
things to take care of. I'll hang up now.”
“Tap, tap.”
After hanging up, Audrey forced herself to eat something.
At the dining table, Julian told Audrey about the surveillance footage. Nathan had
pushed Anne, but when he saw a car speeding towards the sidewalk, he had
tried to pull her back. He broke his arm trying to save her.
Julian initially hadn't wanted Audrey to watch the video, but she insisted.
In the video, Anne had a photo in her hand, and was clearly trying to get close to
Nathan. The video had no audio, so Audrey couldn't hear Anne's words. From
her expressions, Audrey understood that she was pleading with Nathan to look at
the photo.
With teary eyes, Audrey didn’t watch the video to the end. She looked away
when the car drove onto the sidewalk, and Nathan reached out to pull Anne
away.
She paused the video on the tablet and closed her eyes. She covered her face
and couldn't hold back
her tears any longer.
Ryan took the tablet away and put a cup of hot milk on the table beside Audrey.
He then turned to give i
to Julian. “Get Louis Farrel from the legal department of our Sheysea branch to
handle this matter. Anne's daughter is still a minor. Try to get more compensation.
“Okay!” Julian replied. “I've already booked the flight tickets. We leave at 10:30
am and arrive in Jorstton at 12:25 pm. From there, it's about a 90-minute drive to
Eastville.”
Hearing Julian's words, Audrey pressed a tissue against her swollen eyes. She
said with a nasal voice,” I'll go back to Eastville on my own.”
Noticing Ryan watching her, she spoke slowly, “Aunt Anne has no relatives other
than me and
2/2
Harper. She was trafficked to Sayeno Town because she was tricked by a friend.
So, she didn’t have many friends over the years. It'll just be me and Harper at her
funeral.
“As for the car accident compensation, I appreciate your help. If we can get
more, it will help Harper's future.”
Audrey knew Ryan was very busy. A lawyer could handle the car accident
compensation, so there was no need for Ryan to accompany her to Eastville.
“Okay...” Ryan picked up his coffee cup. “Let Julian accompany you.”
“Julians skills would be wasted if he comes with me. I can go alone. Just have
the driver take me to the airport.”
Audrey seemed to have found a way to interact with Ryan. By turning down his
offer and asking smaller favors, she made it difficult for him to refuse.
“Alright.” Ryan nodded and put his coffee aside.

Ryan stood in front of the window of the second-floor study. He watched the car
drive away. He told Julian, “Cancel it.”
Julian, arranging the schedule on his tablet, looked up in surprise.
Ryan added dismissively...
there's something urgent at the Sheysea branch.”
