Chapter 293
“I understand.” George sighed again. “But Ryan, as a father myself… My greatest hope is for my children to live well, not to be burdened by hatred.”
Previously, George had been unaware of why Ryan insisted on leaving the Lambert family.
Ryan then confessed his identity to George, explaining the hatred he carried. Only then did George understand Ryan’s determination.
Ryan intended to seek revenge, but he didn’t want to involve the Lambert family.
That was why he planned to make Ryan disappear from this world through a car accident, returning the Lambert Corporation intact to the Lambert family.
“I’m doing it this way because I don’t want to implicate the Lambert family. And only when Ryan completely disappears can Audrey fully control the Lambert Corporation. The Lambert Corporation might split into factions otherwise.”
George leaned on the desk. He hung his head low, sighing and unsure where to begin. advising.
Just then, George looked up after hearing a knock on the door. “Come in.”
Audrey came in with a fresh plate of pasta.
Seeing Jerry’s artwork that she had gifted George in the most prominent position on the antique shelf, her eyes filled with even more warmth.
Dallas and Lily said they made this pasta with Mom today, and it was waiting to be cooked for you. But Mom got tired, so the dough ended up in the fridge. The two kids just finished cooking this with me, but
they fell asleep right after.”

“You’re all so thoughtful!” George felt a warmth spread in his heart. He glanced at Ryan, still sitting on the couch. “Are you planning to tell Audrey?”
Ryan sat up straight and said, “She knows.”
George was surprised; he hadn’t expected Audrey to know even before he did. “You knew that Ryan isn’t the nephew of your fake grandfather?”
Audrey glanced at Ryan and nodded. She had known ever since Ryan told her his real
name was Matthew.
“Alright. Since you already know, familiarize yourself with the operations of the Lambert Corporation as soon as possible. My stamina is not as good as it used to be, so you’ll have to prepare yourself,” George said, sighing again.
Anyone would feel heavy–hearted to lose such an outstanding son.
“I will help Audrey take over as soon as possible,” Ryan said.
George looked at Audrey. “Tomorrow, I’ll take you and Audrey to the company to get familiarized immediately. Any questions?”
Audrey was already prepared and nodded. “None.”
Ryan and Audrey walked out of George’s study together.
Audrey then asked, “How long before you leave the Lambert family?”
“At most a month.”
He walked with Audrey to the bedroom. “So during this time, we’ll be spending more
time together, and there will be a lot of things to hand over. After I leave, Julian will be under you.”
