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

When she heard Peter's question, Audrey's expression froze. She was a little caught off guard. She looked at the serious Peter in shock and felt confused. She asked, "Why do you ask so?" Logically speaking, he had never seen Alistair before, so he should not be dissatisfied with Alistair.

Peter said sincerely, "Audrey, marriage is a matter of life. As your family, I hope you can marry the man you like and have a happy marriage. As for whether that man has money or not, that's secondary." No one had ever said this to Audrey.

As she listened to Peter's refined voice, her heart felt warm as if it had been soaked in warm water.

Peter added, "You met a bad person previously because that man was blind. That doesn't mean that you don't deserve a better person. I don't want you to get married impulsively to take revenge on that scumbag."

He looked at Audrey and said with satisfaction and pride, "Look at you. You're beautiful and capable. You can marry a husband who treats you well and dotes on you."

'Not an old man who can't give you anything but money,' Peter didn't say it out loud.

As a father, Peter might not be meticulous enough and was not good with words. He kept repeating his words.

However, he sincerely wanted Audrey to live a good life.

After the affair between Eliza and Dominic broke out, Peter also learned some things online.

Audrey used to like Dominic so much, but because she was betrayed, she hurriedly married a stranger.

'How could she be happy in such a marriage?' Peter thought.

Looking at Peter's serious and afraid gaze, Audrey's heart was in turmoil.

She was used to seeing superficial couples like Albert and Fiona and didn't have much expectations for marriage.

Then, she met Dominic. She thought that he was the right person and hurriedly expressed her sincerity. Unexpectedly, she was met with suspicion and alienation day after day.

Before she could turn her love into resentment, Dominic had cheated on her.

She thought that she was unrestrained. She decisively let go and married a stranger.

The truth was that she was afraid of embarrassing herself and wanted to fight for her pride.

But after getting married...

Alistair treated her quite well.

'Other than concealing and deceiving me, he respected and cared for me in every way,' Audrey thought.

He could handle even small details very well. Every day she spent with him was relaxing and comfortable.

Therefore, if she only considered whether she was happy after marriage, she never considered getting a divorce.

However, she also knew Peter and Jessica were genuinely concerned about her.

After some silence, she looked at Peter and Jessica and said frankly, "Although I did get married in a flash, my husband treats me quite well. I haven't thought about getting a divorce for the time being." Peter frowned.

He thought, 'If Audrey's husband is good to her, why didn't he call or greet her when she hadn't returned after work for so long today? 'Also, Audrey has come back with us to acknowledge her family. At such an important moment, her husband is nowhere to be seen.

'My previous guess is correct. Audrey is unhappy in this marriage. She deliberately put on a brave front to make us not worried.

'No matter what, I have to help my daughter break free from this marriage.'

After making up his mind, Peter did not force Audrey. Instead, he followed her words and said, "Since you said he's good, spend more time with him. If he dares to bully you, divorce him immediately. Don't worry, your mother and I are not hidebound. Even if you get a divorce, we will take care of you."

Audrey's eyes welled up when she heard that. She could not help but lean over and hug Peter and Jessica. Her voice was a little choked as she said, "I understand. Thank you, Dad and Mom."

She had not been so touched in a long time.

Every minute she spent with the Harper family was blissful. It was completely different from the oppression and schemes of the Rhodes family. These were her true family members.

Peter and Jessica did not expect Audrey to take the initiative to hug them. They were also a little shocked, but after they reacted, they hugged her.

After dinner, it was very late. Peter and Jessica thought it would be too dangerous for Audrey to drive back to the city alone, so they suggested she stay overnight.

However, after she stayed, they realized there were no empty rooms at home. Only Eliza's previous room was available.

Seeing her parents' troubled expression, Audrey took the initiative to say, "It's okay. I'll stay in this room."

Jessica still felt a little guilty. "It's our fault. We didn't expect this to happen before we went to Riverdale. Otherwise, we would have cleared a room for you long ago."

"It's fine, Mom. It doesn't matter where I sleep. It's our house anyway. I'm not picky."

These words touched the hearts of the Harper family people. They looked at Audrey and loved her even more.

Audrey entered Eliza's room. The decoration was exquisite, like a princess's room. It was in stark contrast to the poor decor of the rest of the house. Audrey felt deeply moved. The Harper family was so good to Eliza. All the good things were in her room.

After lying on the bed, Audrey stared at the ceiling in a daze. After thinking for a long time, she did not feel sleepy.

Alistair had been gone for a day. She wondered if she should give him a call.

He had already been back for a day. She didn't know how Sunny was doing.

As Sunny's stepmother, she should call and ask about him.

However, when she thought about how Alistair had deliberately hidden his identity, she hesitated...noveldrama
