"However," Abner shifted the conversation after offering his praise.
Audrey instinctively straightened her posture and gazed at Abner with seriousness, expecting a reprimand.
Abner continued, "If you ever find yourself in such a situation again, you mustn't go alone. You're a young woman, and it can be very dangerous."
Audrey was taken aback. After a moment's pause, she responded hurriedly, "Alright, Big Brother. I'll be more cautious in the future."
Abner nodded and inquired further, "What happened afterward?"
Audrey visibly relaxed, offering a smile as she recounted how Jerry and Linda had been summoned and subsequently taken away by the police.
"Brother, you wouldn't believe it. Those reporters were snapping pictures like crazy at the time, but none of the photos got leaked. They must've been paid off by the Rick family."
Audrey said with a hint of regret.
