Meeting The One For Me

Chapter 46

Chapter 46 In the laboratory, Diego took off his latex gloves.

He announced, “I’ve been invited to a symposium for about half a month in March next year. I'll have to bring two people with me. Justin will stay to watch over the experiment. Please choose two people amongst yourselves and give me the list of candidates after the Christmas break.

“And there’s another thing that | need to tell you Diego told his students that Audrey’s foster mother had passed away. He told them to watch out for her when she returned. That afternoon, Justin, Azure, and Daphne Childers called her.

Daphne knew that Audrey and Harper were going to live in Cloudmill, so she offered to help her look for a school for Harper. “My uncle is the principal of Cloudmill Junior High School. It’s close to our university. Let me handle this! Don’t worry!”

Daphne continued, “Audrey ... You don’t have to care about anything on the internet. Professor Douglas told us about what happened at Sheysea University. Everyone in the lab believes you’re not who the Yeomans family says you are!”

The story of the top student from Sheysea University who drugged a man and climbed into the man’s bed had spread like wildfire online. Someone had found out who Audrey was and made the connection to “Autrey“, who Donna had mentioned on the show.

Diego was worried about what the other students in the laboratory would think of Audrey. So he told everyone how Audrey had been in love with Nathan, protected him in the car accident, and had fallen into a coma for two years but found Nathan in love with someone else when she woke up.

Diego also put his reputation on the line to ensure that Audrey was a virtuous girl and not who they claimed she was on the internet.

Daphne burst into tears when she heard that. She thought that Audrey had a hard life.

“Okay. Thank you, Daphne,” Audrey expressed her gratitude.

In the evening, Diego sent a message to the laboratory's group chat. He said that even though Cloudmill University would be closed for the holidays, they were to stay on campus because of the experiment’s urgency. He had applied for a fund so they were all going to receive bonuses.

The group chat became lively at once.

Justin told Audrey that they had gathered some money for her. He was worried that she wouldn't accept it, so he asked everybody else to send messages in the group chat. Everyone flooded the chat with messages.

Audrey thanked them, accepted their generous gift, and replied to their messages. Chapter 46

Reading the relaxed tone of Audrey's messages, Daphine couldn't help but ask a question. CutieDaphne: “I’m curious, Audrey. What recording did you send to the showrunners?” AzureSky: “Are you silly, Daphne? Can Audrey spoil it before the show airs?”Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Audrey responded, “It’s a recording of my call with the Yeomans family.”

AzureSky: “Ignore her, Audrey! She’s going to find out on Friday. Take care of your family matters, and don’t worry about replying to our messages in the group chat. We're waiting for you to come back.

Handsomeduustin: “I’ve asked on your behalf, Audrey. Even though you're in a single dorm, your sister can come and live with you.”

LittleDimple: “I wondered why Justin was so quiet for such a long time. Well done, Justin! Everyone please applause! Justin is amazing!”

AzureSky: “Justin is amazing indeed!”

Audrey said, “Thank you, Justin.”

Seeing her colleagues from the laboratory warmheartedly helping her to solve her problems, Audrey's eyes couldn’t help but fill with tears.

She stayed in Eastville for a week.

Anne’s shop was sold on Wednesday. She went to the bank on Thursday and deposited all the money into Harper’s bank account.

Audrey went to the supermarket to buy some groceries. When she returned home, she saw Harper’s shoes at the door. They were wet, but it wasn’t raining outside.

Audrey put her keys on the cabinet and looked at her watch. It was only 4:25 pm. Harper should have been at school.

She slipped into her shoes and put the groceries in the kitchen. She walked to Harper’s bedroom and knocked on the door. She asked, “Why did you come back so early, Harper?”

A few knocks sounded on the door. Harper was asking Audrey to wait a moment.
