The woman in the lead was wearing a luxurious gown. Audrey recognized that it was the latest design from a certain luxury brand.
Looking at her face, which was well-maintained and looked a little similar to Evans, Audrey guessed that she was Evans’s mother.
When they approached, Audrey obediently greeted Evans’ mother. “Hello, Auntie. I’m Audrey.”
Diana’s red lips curled up. She had finally met the actress she had been longing for.
Diana smiled and said, “You’re Audrey? Oh, God, you look even better in person than in television dramas.”
The ladies beside her also smiled and said, “Not only does Mrs. Hill like such a beautiful girl, but we also like her.”
Audrey smiled back. “Hello, Madams. Thank you for your praise. I’m too ashamed to accept it.”
However, tonight’s occasion was extraordinary. Audrey didn’t think that Caroline would dare to be as unreasonable as the last time she came to their house.
After all, the banquet this time was so grand. Every move of the people attending represented the face of their family. If anything happened, it was inevitable that they would embarrass their family.
Caroline’s tone was a little sarcastic, but Audrey wasn’t angry. Instead, she smiled faintly and said, “Thank you for your praise, Madam.”
The moment the two of them looked at each other, there seemed to be sparks flying. Evans saw all of this and subconsciously said, “Mom, you’ve always said that you wanted to see Audrey. Now, we can have a good talk about that drama with her.”
Hearing this, the other noblewomen said a few indifferent words and quickly left tactfully. Only Caroline was still standing beside Diana.
Audrey didn’t know what Caroline wanted to do this time, but seeing that she was hesitating, Evans took the initiative to say, “I heard that Abner is here tonight. Madam Caroline, you have to catch up with him.”
Caroline’s face stiffened. Audrey knew that she was thinking about the unpleasant incident from last time.
Abner and Jerry were both Caroline’s sons, but Caroline’s attitude towards the two of them was completely different. This eldest son was more like a tool to help her gain benefits.
Evans understood and knew that Caroline would probably ignore Abner tonight. It was the same for Abner.
Caroline looked at Diana at this moment, as if she wanted to see any hints of rejection or disgust on her face. However, Diana maintained a proper smile and didn’t show any dissatisfaction with Audrey.
Caroline wasn’t a complete idiot. Seeing Diana like this, she knew that her attempt to sow discord had temporarily failed.
With this in mind, Caroline had no choice but to temporarily give up on attacking Audrey tonight. She casually found an excuse and left.
The moment Caroline left, the atmosphere between Audrey and the other two immediately relaxed.
Diana immediately pulled Audrey to a table at the side happily. “Come, tell me about that Martha…
Evans knew that his mother had always wanted to see Audrey, so it wasn’t appropriate for him to disturb them. He nodded and smiled at Audrey before going to meet the guests.
This banquet was hosted by the head of the Hill Family. At eight o’clock in the evening, the banquet officially began. This banquet was mainly to promote friendly exchanges between the various families. In essence, it was an exchange of interests.
The head of the Hill Family, Carl, stood on the stage and spoke frankly. Audrey dozed off as she listened.
“What’s wrong? Are you sleepy?” Suddenly, a gentle voice came from above.
Audrey shuddered and immediately lost her sleepiness.
Evans stood beside her, and the two of them stood side by side. The scene was indescribably harmonious.
Diana had been talking to Audrey for a long time. If it weren’t because the task at hand was urgent, Diana would have tied Audrey to herself and taken her away.
Audrey was surprised by Diana’s liking for Martha’s character. She even had a filter on Audrey, who was the actor.
Evans suddenly said, “Before my mother got married, she was a bright and lively person like you. She only restrained herself after she got married. When she saw you and the role you played, she subconsciously saw herself back then. ”
‘1 see.’
However… Bright and lively? Audrey looked up in a daze. Evans’s well-defined side profile looked a little gentle under the crystal light..
