Chapter 402 How Dare You Call Her That Way

Faced with Catherine’s questions, Audrey felt that Catherine was even more terrifying than Korbin and exuded a feeling as imposing as Vicente.

Audrey even felt that the reason why Vicente passed the Swanns’ assets to Catherine was that Catherine shared similar character traits to Vicente.

Somehow, she felt frightened and couldn’t even look into Catherine’s eyes.

“I was deceived by the fake product and thought I was pregnant. As a result, I acted a bit decadently for a few days, and then Kim found it. The other day, I had a stomachache and went to the hospital only to find that I was diagnosed with a stomach flu!”

After saying that, Audrey felt extremely awkward. For the moment, she wished to bury her head in the sand. After hearing Audrey out, Catherine felt relieved for Audrey.

Audrey was in the crucial stage of her career. If she was pregnant, she would have to choose between her career and her baby.

Just as well it was a mistake. It would save a lot of trouble.

“Let’s go back and take a rest!”

Audrey was originally worried about if Catherine would ask who she had slept with. Unexpectedly, Catherine asked nothing. Audrey let out a sigh of relief in secret and followed Catherine away.

Now that she knew that Audrey was fine, Catherine had no scruples then. Catherine took an elevator downstairs with Audrey. As they opened the door, they heard a voice coming from the front.

“Catherine…”

The familiar voice made Catherine raise her head subconsciously. She saw Triston standing in front of them slovenly.

He stood there, putting his arm around the shoulders of a sexy and pretty girl with a curvy body shape. The girl must have had a lot of plastic surgeries on her face, which suited Triston’s taste.

Triston saw not only Catherine but also Audrey.

“Whoa, why are you two here? Are you injured?”

Catherine said nothing. Instead, Audrey couldn’t help roasting Triston after seeing him.

“What are the odds? I didn’t expect to meet you here. Are you infected with any illness as you didn’t take proper measures?”

Triston didn’t expect Audrey to mock him on purpose. His face immediately sank. “Audrey, we’re friends anyway. Why are you being so mean?”

“Hmph!” Audrey snorted with contempt. “Mr. Lambert, I’m kindly reminding you to be careful of your health!”

Seeing that Triston was about to refute her, Audrey argued back ahead of him, ” Enough, Mr. Lambert. I’ll get out of your hair.”

“Kathy, let’s go!”

After saying that, Audrey dragged Catherine away.

Triston felt so mad that he got out of control at once.

The pretty girl next to him said in a soft voice, “Mr. Lambert, please don’t take this kind of annoying bitch to heart. She looks so cheap!”

Upon hearing the word bitch, Triston wore a sullen look right away.

He stared at the girl coldly.

“You’ve been with me for two days only, but you’ve got some nerve. How dare you call her bitch?”

The girl didn’t expect Triston would take it out on her all of a sudden. She was freaked out and instantly wanted to defend herself in a flurry.

“Mr. Lambert, I…”

Triston shook away her arm and cast a gloomy glance at her. “The car at the door is for you. Don’t contact me anymore!”

After saying that, Triston left on his own. The girl wanted to rush forward but didn’t dare to. She couldn’t afford to offend Triston. If she messed with him, she would be in big trouble. Staring at the key to the sports car, the girl felt unwilling to let go.

It took her a lot of effort to triumph over other girls and snatch a great man like Triston, but she had been dumped.

It was so outrageous!

It was the two women’s fault. And she knew one of them.

After all, she was a model. Of course, she knew that Audrey was a star.

The girl originally intended to leave, but as she realized that she was still in the hospital, she came up with a brilliant idea.

She decided to teach Audrey a lesson.

She took out her phone and sent a message. Since Audrey caused trouble for her, the girl would make life difficult for Audrey.

Audrey didn’t expect to meet Triston here. As she thought of Triston, she felt increasingly angry. She couldn’t help losing her temper.

“Kathy, why was I so unlucky? Why did I meet Triston the scumbag?”

Catherine replied with a cold expression.

“No matter what kind of man Triston is, it has nothing to do with you or me!

“Psychologically, the more you take somebody to heart, the more concern you will show for him!”

Her simple words instantly struck Audrey dumb. After she collected herself, she didn’t dare to look into Catherine’s eyes. She looked away and didn’t dare to look at Catherine.

“Stop talking nonsense. I just dislike that scumbag and want to get rid of him for the society!”

Catherine didn’t refute her. One should never try to wake up the beast. Afterward, Audrey and Catherine took some intestines and stomach coordinating medicine together and decided to leave the hospital.

Audrey went to a clinic before. Of course, it wasn’t as reliable as the hospital. Since Audrey had done the checkups, she might as well take some medicine for body conditioning.

As soon as the two of them got out of the hospital, a group of people suddenly rushed to them. The overwhelming flashlights made the two of them unable to open their eyes at all. A group of journalists gathered around them, holding microphones and followed by photographers.

“Audrey, I heard you are pregnant. Is it real?”

“Who’s the father of your baby?”

“Are you here for an abortion?”

“Aren’t you afraid the sudden pregnancy will affect your career and hurt your fans’ hearts?”

Various questions kept coming to her. Even though Audrey was used to this kind of life, she didn’t know how to deal with the situation at the moment.

At other times, Kim would protect her from this. Now, she didn’t know what to say. The journalists strived to squeeze forward as if they could get first-hand information as long as they arrived in front of her.

Audrey couldn’t respond to the questions. She could only lower her head instinctively. With a frown, Catherine held Audrey’s hand and wanted to leave with her.

The journalists kept following them. Catherine and Audrey couldn’t leave at all.

A journalist even deliberately triggered a conflict to acquire better news.

He poked the camera at Audrey’s head, seemingly trying to make her raise her head this way.

“Ouch…”

Audrey’s head was hit. She let out a scream in pain.

Audrey turned her head and happened to see the journalist taking photos of the scene with a complacent expression.

When she saw the scene, Catherine’s face sank at once.

Originally, she thought since Audrey was working in showbiz, for Audrey’s own good, it was better not to intervene in Audrey’s matter.

However, these people were really out of line.

Catherine stopped and looked back.

The journalist got excited and thought there would be big news for him. He wished it could be the news big enough to hit the headline. He kept pressing the camera button. His excitement even surpassed the sense of crisis.

He didn’t realize how dangerous the situation would be.

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?"
