All Her Secrets Chapter 341 by Chestnut

Chapter 341 Thank You

Everyone was excited, and the comments flooded the screen.

The comments:

[How could Catherine be so arrogant?]

[Even Peerless Grayson is so humble. How dare she be so smug! Who does she think she is?]

[Her singing is fine, but she is too insensible!]

[Peerless Grayson isn’t angry about it. He is so well brought up. I’m sure he is sad deep down.]

The comments mainly were nasty comments about Catherine’s behavior. They were condemning her and, at the same time, paying attention to Grayson’s reactions.

Since Catherine spoke, Grayson’s gaze had never left her. He had been paying attention to Catherine’s expressions and movements. He held the microphone and smiled gently as he stared at Catherine affectionately.

“Really? Do you think I can do anything to improve it?”

The smile on his face was sincere. So, many of his fans were mesmerized by it. That smile of his was pleasant to watch.

Catherine looked at Grayson, smiling, and nodded silently. It might just be a simple nod, but it strongly encouraged Grayson.

He was like a student, holding the microphone as he stared at Catherine sincerely, speaking out what was on his mind.

“I have always been worried because I want more. I have seen holding concerts and attending various activities, greatly affecting my initial dream. I have let down everyone, afraid those who support me might be disappointed.

“Your encouragement has helped me move on, holding onto my dream!

“Catherine, thank you!”

Grayson smiled sincerely again after finishing his speech. Those fans of Grayson who had been scolding Catherine for being smug and arrogant without having any ability showed a different attitude toward Grayson when they commented about him.

The comments about him appeared one after another.

[Peerless Grayson, you will always be my idol! What a positive speech!]

[You are good enough!]

[Peerless Grayson wants to show the best of himself before us! Go for it, Peerless Grayson!]

[Maybe Peerless Grayson only wants encouragement, no matter how much he has achieved. It would help him strive higher. I think that’s why Peerless Grayson is so happy when Catherine encourages him. Way to go, Peerless Grayson. Catherine, thank you! ]

[Wow! Your comment is the length of an essay!]

[It’s heart-warming!]

[Way to go, Peerless Grayson! Thank you, Catherine!]

Comments of gratitude and encouragement filled the screen. It was different from just now. They had changed their attitude from reprimanding Catherine to thanking her for encouraging Grayson.

To prevent affecting the rest of the filming, the host could not keep the eight teams on stage for too long. So, the host had to ask Catherine’s team to leave the stage and invite the next team.

Catherine had been standing too long. So, she did not dawdle and quickly walked down the stage for the next group to perform.

Looking at group number eight, which had performed well, those participants in the waiting zone were envious.

Getting such high attention like group number eight was something the other groups would never dare to imagine. Emma sat in the waiting zone, observing Catherine’s every move.

When she heard Grayson’s words, she knew she had underestimated Catherine. Grayson’s relationship with Catherine seemed much better than she had thought. At least it was not Catherine pestering Grayson, and they did know each other in person.

However, she did not care, even if they did know each other. She would never let anyone take away the man she wanted.

She would make sure Catherine lost in this competition. Only then would Grayson notice how much better she was than Catherine.

Unlike other groups, she stayed back and observed other group’s performances even though her turn was over. Catherine’s group packed their things and left after they got off the stage.

They did not look like they were there for the competition and more like they came as special guests. It looked like they were only there to perform that song.

The group walked out of the filming set. Everyone was excited because they had just finished their performance. Ronin suggested going for a barbecue to celebrate.

Before Bryan could agree to that suggestion, they heard the sound of someone’s phone ringing. Each used the same phone brand and set the same ringtone.

They subconsciously looked for their phone, yet they noticed Catherine calmly taking out her phone from her pocket and answering it. Branden’s soothing voice came from the other end of the call. “Have you done filming? I am at the door.”

That man had chosen the right time to call her. Once she had done filming, he was already at the door waiting for her.

Catherine answered with a hum and waved her hand to her friends as she strode toward the door. Ronin had no idea what was going on. He wanted to chase after her, yet Bryan dragged him back by pulling his collar.

Displeased, Ronin glared at Bryan disdainfully. “Why are you pulling me back? I have to stop Catherine from leaving so that she can have a barbecue with us tonight.”

Bryan was too lazy to explain to this idiot who was never observant. It was so obvious Catherine’s boyfriend called, yet Ronin had not noticed it. What else could Bryan say?

“Catherine has no time to have a barbecue with us. Don’t you see why?”

“Why?” Ronin was in a puzzle.

Byran rolled his eyes. “Catherine is going on a date!”

Ronin was startled, and his eyebrows furrowed. He was starting to dislike the Duncans!

Catherine walked toward the door and saw the Maybach. As she was approaching the car, Paxton walked down the car and opened the door for her. Triston popped his head out of the front seat’s window and grinned as he greeted her.

“Kathy, congratulations!”

Catherine quickened her steps and got into the back seat. Just as she entered the car, the man beside her took her bag naturally and placed it beside him. He did it casually, as if he had done it countless times.

Triston glanced at Catherine in the back seat as he smiled and said, ” Catherine, congratulations on getting into the semi-finals. Why don’t we have dinner outside tonight to celebrate this?”

Although they had not announced the result, everyone knew Catherine would get to the finals because her total marks were high, and her ranking was among the best.

Catherine did not answer Triston immediately. She looked at Branden and asked casually, “Let’s go and have a barbecue?”

“Okay!” Branden agreed without hesitation. They had been having meals at home and had not had a barbecue for days. His little girlfriend liked barbecue. So, she would naturally crave it.

Triston was excited, “Catherine, what a great suggestion! Barbecue is perfect. Why don’t we go to the barbecue restaurant I own? We just received a batch of fresh ingredients yesterday. I am sure you would like them!”

Although he was excited, Branden and Catherine did not seem to want to answer him. Triston did not mind and took it as they had agreed. He excitedly ordered Paxton to drive to his shop.

Paxton glanced at him. He had no idea why Branden agreed to bring Triston along. Triston was energetic and active, which might be a little noisy sometimes.

Catherine Swann, a simple countryside girl, was having a leisurely and carefree life in the countryside. She thought she could have a happy life there for the rest of her life. Unfortunately, life had other plans for her. Her grandfather left a will for her, making her the inheritor of the Swanns’ billion-dollar fortune. As if that wasn’t shocking enough, he also arranged a marriage for her.

Branden Duncan, the only heir of the wealthiest family in Casier, was the dream prince charming of almost all the women in Casier. But Catherine turned him down in public. Instead of being angry about it, he was attracted by Catherine's cold eyes.Although Catherine seemed to be a girl with a simple life in the countryside, she was not simple. What kind of identity did she have? How would she deal with her unexpected fiancé and the opposition from the rest of the Swanns to her inheritance of the Swanns’ fortune?

Chapter 1 Return of the Jinx At Vicente Swann's funeral. As the Swanns were one of the three prominent families in Casier, Vicente's funeral was naturally packed with big shots and members of respected families in Casier. In the noisy venue, the arrival of a girl in a white T-shirt attracted the attention of everyone present. All of the people present were either rich or powerful. Despite being good-looking, the girl wore a cheap and battered T-shirt, setting her apart from everyone else at the funeral. Seeing how she walked straight toward the Swanns family, someone couldn't help asking curiously, "Who is she? Why is she sitting with the Swanns?" "I heard that she is Miss Catherine, the second daughter of the Swanns that had lived away from the family. Vicente only asked her to come back before he died." "Is that so? I heard that Vicente ordered the family to announce his will in front of everyone before he died. I guess she only returned for this!" ... The girl did not know that she had already become the topic of the guests' discussions. She looked calmly ahead with an indifferent expression on her face. Her eyes remained focused on Vicente's portrait in the middle of the venue. Nobody knew what she was thinking about at the time. At the sight of Catherine Swann like this, Liana Swann, the youngest and favorite daughter of the Swanns, couldn't help complaining to her mother, who was sitting next to her. "Mom, what is going on with this country girl? Grandpa has died. Even if she isn't sad, she should at least pretend to cry. What would the others think if the media took a photo of her like this later? She wouldn't even change her clothes when we asked her to. People that don't know better would think that the Swanns have mistreated her!" After hearing her youngest daughter's complaints, Rachael Swann furrowed her brows too. She thought that her youngest daughter did have a point. She never loved Catherine, her daughter from the countryside, dearly. In fact, Catherine pissed Rachael off just one day after she had returned. However, it was not the right time for Rachael to handle Catherine now. She planned to wait until the funeral was over before sending Catherine back to the countryside so that Catherine wouldn't continue to embarrass the Swanns here. Looking up, Rachael saw that her husband had arrived. She comforted her youngest daughter in a low voice, "Liana, be good. Your father is here. Bear with Catherine for now. We need to deal with what is important first!" Liana couldn't show her annoyance towards Catherine in public, so she could only choke back the complaints on the tip of her tongue. Nobody noticed that Catherine, who had been looking straight ahead, smiled lightly. The Swanns never spent time with Catherine, so they wouldn't know she had exceptional hearing. Even though Rachael and Liana spoke in a low voice, Catherine clearly heard every word of their exchange. Her mother truly did not love her! As Catherine stared at Vicente's portrait, her eyes flashed with a faint trace of sadness. Did she have to cry because of pain? ... Korbin Swann walked up the stage slowly. He gave a long speech first and expressed his views about how great Vicente was before finally announcing that the family would publicly announce Vicente's will. As many people knew this beforehand, the crowd was not too surprised. Vicente had a son and daughter. It was a no-brainer who would inherit the fortune of the Swanns. However, nobody understood why Vicente would make sure to make such a fuss to announce his will publicly. Was it just for formality? The lawyer Vicente trusted the most when he was still alive opened the sealed will and read it out loud. "After careful consideration, I, Vicente Swann, leave all my shares of the Swann Corporation, real estate properties, and a 500 million-dollar deposit at the Bank of Nospines to my granddaughter, Catherine Swann..." At the lawyer's words, the crowd gasped in shock. Not even the Swanns, everyone present was dumbfounded. Catherine Swann? Wasn't she the second daughter of the Swanns, the jinx that Vicente sent off to be raised in the countryside when she was young? How could it be? She would inherit the fortune of the Swanns. With their jaws dropped, everyone shared a similar look of horror. Except for Catherine, the center of the discussion. She still looked indifferent, as though nothing had happened. Her eyes were still fixed on Vicente's portrait in the center of the hall. Her lips parted slightly as she spoke in an almost inaudible voice. "Old man, what were you thinking?"
