Chapter 31: Receiving the Notice to Join Production

A few days later, Audrey received a notice from the production team that filming would begin in a week.

She was shooting a modern drama in the city, so she didn't need to stay on set.

However, the set was a bit far from their old mansion. Audrey remembered that when she came of age, Gary had given her a set of apartments not far from the set.

She could stay there during filming, but that would mean she might not have any pocket money for the next two months.

Anthea, hearing that Audrey was about to start shooting, asked, "Shouldn't you prepare some accessories in advance?"

After all, actors had to face the camera, and they would need some new items.

Audrey shook her head. Thinking of this, she immediately thought of someone.

She said to Anthea, "Mom, you don't need to worry about these things. I have a way."

That day, she called Linda. After the incident at the birthday banquet, she hadn't agreed to let Linda into her circle. Linda was probably upset about it, and it took a few days for her to contact Audrey again.

Now, Audrey took the initiative to call her. Linda was a bit pleased about this. In this circle, the other rich daughters didn't look favorably upon Audrey, and Linda was probably the only one willing to be friends with her.

Therefore, she was confident that she still held a lot of weight in Audrey's heart.

"Audrey, why are you calling suddenly? Do you want to go shopping?" Linda asked as soon as she picked up the call.

She really had no reservations, making her intentions very clear. She even hoped to gain some benefits from Audrey.

Audrey spoke with measured words, saying, "Linda, my filming is set to commence in a week. The director emphasized the need for authenticity, suggesting that if we can provide our own accessories, it would be preferable to using props. The reason being, props tend to appear fake."

Linda rolled her eyes. "Really? That's true. With the high definition cameras nowadays, anything fake can be easily spotted. I'll go shopping with you for the next few days. You can buy some."

Audrey sighed. "Linda, I don't have money right now. I remember I lent you some accessories before. Can you return them to me first?"

Linda was taken aback. When she had approached Audrey before, she had indeed said she was lending the accessories. However, she had counted on Audrey's pride – once she lent them, she wouldn't ask for them back.

"Linda, are you listening? I'll come and get it from you tomorrow." Those were all luxury goods that could be sold for a large sum of money.

Linda didn't want to return it. She said, "Audrey, that..."

Her words were interrupted when she heard Audrey speaking to someone on the other end of the line. "Big brother, I'm on the phone with Linda. I told her that I'm coming to her place to get back the things she borrowed."

Linda took a deep breath, then changed her tone. "Audrey, how about I deliver the items directly to your house tomorrow?"

Audrey agreed.

After hanging up, Linda first went to the wardrobe to choose the dress she thought was the best before packing up the accessories she had taken from Audrey.

Linda had already heard about how Abner had taken the initiative to help Audrey at the birthday banquet. This indicated that their relationship had improved significantly.

If she could hook up with Abner, she wouldn't need to care about anyone in the Rofus Family. Audrey's accessories wouldn't even be worthy of her attention.

Coincidentally, it was the weekend tomorrow. She would be able to meet Abner if she went to his door dressed beautifully.

After hanging up, Audrey had a smug smile on her face.

She went downstairs feeling refreshed. She didn't expect to meet Abner, who had just returned.

Audrey thought about the incident where she used Abner to retrieve items from Linda. She felt a bit guilty for some reason.

[It seems like I should do such things less in the future. It doesn't sit well with my conscience.]

Abner looked at the text above Audrey's head with some confusion. What had Audrey done to make her conscience uneasy?

"Big Brother," Audrey greeted him obediently.

Meanwhile, she made a silent promise to herself.

[No, I can't let Linda get close to my big brother. He deserves the best.]

Abner was genuinely at a loss, wondering what was going through Audrey's mind day by day.

He nodded in response to Audrey's greeting. He had initially intended to head upstairs directly, but thinking about Audrey's friend, he spoke up for the first time, "That friend of yours is up to no good. You should avoid spending time with her in the future."

"Huh?" Audrey was puzzled for a moment before realizing who he was talking about. She quickly responded, "Okay, big brother. Once I get my things back, I'll immediately distance myself from her."

[Is my big brother looking out for me?]

Abner''s expression stiffened, and he didn't say anything further. He went straight upstairs.
