Chapter 61: The Gift for Big Brother

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Eric and Abner had been spending more time at home in recent days. When they noticed Audrey returning with a stack of bags, they assumed she had been out shopping and didn’t press for details.

Instead, Gary inquired, “How have you been these past few days? Are you adjusting well to life on the set?”

Audrey nodded and replied, “I’m doing pretty well. My manager suggested I take a half-month break. In a few days, he’ll help me choose a new script, and I’ll head to the company to check it out.”

Gary nodded and stopped asking.

As the family sat down for dinner, Audrey couldn’t help but steal a glance at Abner.

[As expected of the CEO. Even his table manners exude elegance.]

Perhaps due to the bright overhead light, Abner instinctively looked up.

Upon reading that line of text, a smile crept onto Abner’s face. He then glanced at his brother seated beside him before swiftly returning his attention to his meal.

Speaking of which… Could Eric also see the words above Audrey’s head? If he ever mustered the courage to ask Eric this question, would Eric assume there was something wrong with his eyes?

In the interest of preserving his composed demeanor, Abner resolved to keep this peculiar discovery to himself for the time being.

Meanwhile, Eric, too, didn’t miss the change above Audrey’s head.

Honestly, it appeared as though something akin to a scrolling message had mysteriously materialized above Audrey’s head following her car accident.

Eric also glanced at Abner.

Speaking of which… is Big Brother aware of the phenomenon happening above Audrey’s head? If he impulsively inquired about it, would Big Brother think he had lost his mind?

Thinking of the ridicule he might suffer, Eric decided not to mention this to anyone for the time being.

Audrey didn’t know what the two of them were thinking. At that moment, she was thinking about how to give the item away later. [To be honest, will Big Brother like what I give him? What if he doesn’t?] What? This guy bought a gift for Big Brother?

Eric was the first to notice the change above Audrey’s head. Apart from a brief shock, he couldn’t help but feel a little suffocated. Isn’t there my share? Abner also saw that sentence and could not help but be a little shocked.

Audrey… bought him a gift?

It turned out that the pile of things she had brought in just now included his gift..

What could it be? Abner suddenly looked forward to it.

After the meal, everyone returned to their rooms. Audrey picked out the gift she had given Abner and personally knocked on the door of his study.

“Come in,” Abner’s cool voice emanated from inside the study.

Abner assumed it was a servant delivering his customary evening warm milk, so he didn’t initially look up. It was only when he sensed that the footsteps were being unusually hushed that he raised his eyes and discovered Audrey carefully approaching his desk, wearing a mysterious smile.

Abner had observed Audrey’s concealed hands, but he was willing to engage in this playful charade with her, maintaining an air of ignorance.

“What’s the matter?” Abner inquired with a faint smile, feigning innocence.

Audrey, unaware that Abner had already deduced the nature of her gift, beamed and retrieved an elegantly wrapped small gift box from behind her back.

“Brother, this is for you.”

Raising an eyebrow, Abner refrained from taking it immediately. Instead, he maintained his smile and asked, “What prompted this sudden gift, Audrey?”

Audrey’s eyes shimmered with excitement. “Brother, you helped me so much the last time, and I never properly thanked you. This gift is my way of expressing my gratitude. I hope you like it.”

[Take it, take it!]

Abner naturally saw the bold red words above her head. He raised his hand and took it.

Audrey’s face lit up as she said, “It’s just a small token of my appreciation. I’m glad you don’t mind.”

Abner did not ask her what was inside. Instead, he said something else. “The entire industry is aware of the incident involving Jerry. If you ever find yourself in a situation where the Rick family gives you trouble, don’t hesitate to reach out to me directly. I’ll stand up for you.”

[Big Brother is the best!]

Audrey nodded with a smile and said, “I understand. Thank you, Brother.” The two of them engaged in more conversation for a while before Audrey excused herself, citing her desire not to disrupt Abner’s work.

After Audrey departed, Abner opened the exquisite box and discovered an elegant brooch inside.

He couldn’t help but chuckle..
