Chapter 118
Chapter 118 Audrey was puzzled by George’s sudden appearance and didn’t understand what he meant. She only looked at him blankly.
George placed his glasses and book on the small table beside him, then picked up the report. “Of course, Ryan doesn’t know that I'm here in Slovomla. If | can keep it from him, | don’t intend to let Ryan know that we’ve met. My daughter needs a kidney transplant, and the doctors say that there’s lesser chance of rejection with a kidney from a family member. I’m too old to be a suitable donor, but your kidney is a perfect match for her. Would you be willing to donate it to her?”
Even though George was asking Audrey for help, he still refused to acknowledge her as his granddaughter.
Audrey, with her fragile arms, propped herself up against the bedhead while enduring the pain. Her teary eyes were filled with worry. “What...
happened to her?”
“You don’t need to know the specifics. If you don’t want to do it, | can find a suitable kidney for Wanda. You don’t need to worry about that. You're free to choose,” George explained.
Audrey's hand rested on her stomach. “As long as it’s for her, I’m willing to do it. But could we wait until after | give birth?” She noticed George pursing his lips in silence, then she asked, “Is my child still alive?”
“Wouldn't it be better if the child were gone? You've divorced Nathan already. If you have his child, you'll inevitably be tied to him. | don't like owing favours. Since you're willing to donate a kidney for Wanda, I'll take care of your life for the next five years.” George put down the report upon hearing the choke in Audrey's voice. It was clear that he didn’t want to dwell too much on the child’s matter with Audrey.
Following that, George stood up with his cane. Audrey gripped tightly onto the fabric of the clothing over her stomach. She didn’t explain anything to George.
As George walked out, he said, “The Lambert family has always been tough. We repay the kindness. and avenge wrongs! | can provide you with all the resources you need for the next five years, but how far you grow depends on yourself. Don’t spare those who have wronged you.
George left the ward after that.
Edward closed the door and followed behind George. “Mr. Lambert, everything has been arranged. Ms. Yeomans will be transferred before Mr. Ryan arrives from the hotel. But how do we explain this to him?”
George’s face tensed up. “Ryan is a grateful person. Over the years, he’s felt indebted to Audrey because | didn’t bother to take care of her. Thus, he consciously looks out for her. This time, he’s even planning to register his marriage with Audrey in Ruplana for the sake of the child in her belly! | know

everything! But now, the group is in a critical moment. He should focus all his thoughts on the group. Tell him that I'll take over Audrey's matter from there!”
Edward followed George into the elevator. “But didn’t you just say you’re only responsible for Ms. Yeomans ' life for five years?” George tightly gripped onto his cane. “If she can’t stand up and step on those who once looked down on her in five years, she’s not worthy of the blood of the Lambert family. Does she even belong in the Lambert family, then?”Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
George’s feelings toward Audrey were contradictory.
He had always appreciated Audrey, for she had once risked her life to save Wanda.
Still, that wouldn’t change the fact that Audrey was part of the Yeomans family. He wanted her to live like the other members of the Yeomans family-forever stuck at the bottom of society and living a life inferior to ants, with no hope of redemption.
When George learned about Audrey winning various competitions, he would think of his once- shining daughter. He would feel that Audrey was worthy of being Wanda’s child. However, at the same time, he hated Wayne for ruining Wanda’s life and would once again resent Audrey.
But ever since George witnessed Audrey's call on the program to crack down on buyers and sellers involved in trafficking, he seemed to have let go of his resentment toward Audrey.
This was because he could feel that Audrey was now doing her best to save her biological mother, whom she had once been unable to save.
