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

Audrey was taken by surprise for a moment and asked, "Why so suddenly..."

Since they got married, except for the time Sunny relapsed, Alistair had never left her.

Alistair explained, "There's an issue in Willowdale that I need to go and deal with."

Since it was work, she couldn't really say anything more.

Audrey composed herself and asked, "How many days will you be gone?"

Alistair frowned, thought for a moment, and shook his head, saying, "Not sure yet, but I'll try to get back as soon as possible." Hearing this, Audrey thoughtfully asked, "When's your flight? Do you need me to help pack your luggage?"

Eager to rise and help, she tried to stand but was still too weak, and her vision spun as she sat back down.noveldrama

A glimmer of tenderness flashed in Alistair's eyes as he secretly regretted being too intense last night.

Holding her shoulders, he softly said, "Just rest well. I've taken care of everything."

Upon hearing this, Audrey felt a moment of emptiness, realizing he'd already decided to travel and was only letting her know now.

Alistair assumed she didn't want him to leave, tousling her hair helplessly, and added, "In a couple of days, a guest might come over, so I'll have to trouble you to entertain him." 'A guest?' Audrey wondered.

She looked up at Alistair in confusion. "What guest?"

Hearing Alistair mention that a guest might be coming over, Audrey instinctively felt a bit nervous.

She wondered, 'What if his parents come from Willowdale and I am home alone? How should I deal with it?'

Alistair didn't know why Audrey was nervous, so he honestly said, "I found a child psychologist for Sunny. She's awesome. I've been searching for a long time and recently contacted her. She should be returning from abroad in the next couple of days." Audrey wanted to say that with her skills, she could gradually help Sunny through their daily interactions. She was confident about it.

But thinking about how Alistair had been in touch with this person for a while meant that person must be quite capable.

Having another person to treat Sunny was also a good thing, so she agreed to host this guest for Alistair.

The company was going through a rough patch lately, and after Alistair went on a business trip, Audrey was busy too.

At first, she didn't notice much difference without Alistair around.

Sunny had professional care and she came home to a hot meal every day.

But when the night was silent, lying alone in bed, she felt like there was an emptiness next to her.

Her longing for Alistair came over her like a wave.

On the weekend, Alistair still hadn't come back.

Audrey and Sunny sat at home, feeling a bit bored.

Realizing she hadn't visited her parents in some time, Audrey suddenly felt inspired and asked

Sunny, "Hey Sunny, want to join me for a meal at your grandparent's place?" en

'Join for a meal?' Sunny didn't quite get what that meant. But seeing Audrey's excitement, he nodded obediently.

Audrey joyfully ruffled his little head and said with a smile, "Hold on a minute. I'm going to call your grandma."

There was a concern that Jessica

might not fully understand Sunny and there might be

misunderstandings or adjustments during their time together.

Before visiting, Audrey made sure to call Jessica and inform her about some of Sunny's details.

Jessica had met Sunny once before.

She used to think this kid was just a bit withdrawn, but when she found out he was autistic, her heart went out to him.

For a moment, she didn't care that

Sunny was Alistair's ex's son, and she reminded Audrey, "Remember to stay safe when you come over. I'll have something delicious ready for you at home."

"Thanks, Mom," said Audrey.
