Chapter 462 She Saw Through Her Thoughts

Audrey suspected something was wrong with her eyes when she saw the butler appear on the set. The butler bowed respectfully to Audrey. “Miss Audrey, Mrs. Swann wants to see you.”

Audrey froze momentarily, then stood up and looked at the butler with wide eyes and a face full of disbelief.

“My mom is here?”

The butler nodded slightly, signaling Audrey.

“Please follow me!”

Seeing this scene, the surrounding staff stopped their movements and focused on Audrey. They had long heard that Audrey had a profound background. Once she debuted, the play she starred in was famous, and her target partner was either a popular star or a top-level star. She had a promising future.

They finally saw the truth today. Audrey was indeed a lady from a wealthy family, and even the butler from her family was so imposing.

Audrey glanced at Kim standing aside, and Kim immediately followed. But the next second, Kim was stopped by the butler.

“I’m sorry, sir. Mrs. Swann only wants to see Miss Audrey!”

Undoubtedly, he was the butler from a wealthy family, and even Kim, who had seen the world, had to give in in front of him.

In order not to cause trouble, Audrey could only compromise.

“Kim, please help me tell the director that I need to take half a day off.”

She then followed the butler and left.

A top-notch RV was parked in the open space at the entrance of the set. It was a film and television base, and many famous movie stars shot there, so it was unsurprising to see luxury vehicles there.

Audrey, however, instantly recognized that it was one of her mother’s vehicles.

She didn’t know the purpose of her mother’s visit this time. Before, every time her mother had something, she would call her and ask her to go back to the Swanns. Audrey had never had the experience of her mother coming to her in person.

With an uneasy heart, Audrey slowly sat in the RV.

Rachael sat elegantly in the RV, drinking coffee. Hearing the movement, she looked up calmly. Her stunning face was wearing exquisite makeup.

It was as if time had forgotten her. She had already given birth to four children, but there was no sign of aging on her face, and she looked a dozen years younger than her actual age.

“Have a seat.”

A simple command instantly made Audrey straighten her waist and sit down demurely.

Ever since Audrey was a child, her mother had felt that she wasn’t as noble and imposing as Liana and that she did not have the wealthy lady demeanor of Liana.

When Audrey was a child, to gain her mother’s attention, she would deliberately restrain herself to put on a wealthy lady’s demeanor at all times.

Even now, in front of her mother, she couldn’t help but straighten her back and did not dare to relax.

Rachael glared impatiently at Audrey.

As for her eldest daughter, Audrey, Rachael had never liked her much, let alone that Audrey was now following Catherine, the jinx, to go against her, which made her deeply disgusted. If it weren’t for her father’s advice, she wouldn’t have wanted to go there.

“Audrey, I’m here today to ask you to do your responsibilities as the big sister. You should advise Catherine to stop antagonizing us.

“Do you know what she has done lately? She conspired with outsiders to seize the assets of the Swanns. Is this something that humans should do?”

The more Rachael spoke, the more agitated she became. If it weren’t for her constant cultivation that kept her alert to maintain her decorum, she would have begun to break into a tirade by now.

Audrey looked at her mother in shock. She was indeed stunned for a moment. After that, she reacted and began shaking her head desperately.

“No, that’s absolutely impossible!”

Hearing Audrey’s denial, Rachael’s face darkened.

“How dare you speak for Catherine? Are you out of your mind?”

Rachael was about to explode. She didn’t know why she had given birth to these children to make herself suffer in the first place.

Looking at her angry mother, Audrey began to explain continuously.

“Mom, this must be a misunderstanding. How could Catherine possibly do such a thing? Absolutely impossible!”

With things at this point and Audrey still defending Catherine, Rachael couldn’t hold back and roared at Audrey, “You’re actually speaking for that jinx. Audrey, are you crazy?”

Jinx!

This word completely stung Audrey. She suddenly looked up at her mother with immense anger in her eyes.

“Mom, I am your daughter, and so is Catherine. What did she do wrong to be labeled as a jinx by you?

“Are there mothers in the world using insulting words to refer to their daughters?”

“You…” Rachael widened her eyes instantly, her chest heaving up and down in anger, and her gaze became extremely sharp immediately. “Are you all going against me?

“I’m just here to ask you to fulfill your responsibilities as a big sister and give Catherine some advice.

“Audrey, weren’t you very cultured before? Is this how you should treat your mother?”

Looking at her mother, who was filled with righteous indignation and anger, Audrey was utterly disappointed.

She didn’t care about her mother’s coldness toward her or mind her mother’s preference for her younger siblings, but she couldn’t accept her mother’s humiliation of Catherine like this.

After all, they were siblings from the same mother, and she knew in her heart what kind of person Catherine really was.

There was no way she could advise her mother on her repeated mistakes, but she would not help her either. Audrey slowly stood up and bent down to bow to Rachael.

“Mom, I’m so sorry.”

After saying that, she didn’t wait for Rachael to respond, and without hesitation, she opened the door and walked down.

Rachael was so angry that she went berserk in public in the car, sweeping everything at hand to the floor and smashing them in a mess.

In the evening, Audrey returned to the apartment from the set. As soon as she entered, she saw Catherine leaning on the couch, with a somewhat domineering posture, holding her phone in her hand while playing games.

The clattering of firearms in the game filled the entire room. Upon hearing the sound of the door opening, Catherine moved her gaze away from the screen and glanced in Audrey’s direction.

Her gaze was light, but it gave Audrey an awkward feeling of being stripped off and watched on the spot. Fortunately, Catherine’s gaze only lingered on her briefly and then moved away.

Watching Catherine continue to play the game, Audrey breathed a sigh of relief secretly.

After a long time of contemplation, Audrey finally sat next to Catherine.

Catherine held her phone in her hand and moved her fingers quickly, manipulating the buttons on the phone screen to eliminate the enemies accurately in the game one by one.

The game, which was still ten minutes away from ending, ended early under Catherine’s frantic slaughter.

Once the last enemy died, Catherine threw her cell phone aside and raised her eyes toward Audrey.

On her cold and delicate face, a pair of beautiful eyes were glittering with flowing light, shining exceptionally.

“If you have something to say, say it!”

Audrey didn’t expect Catherine to be able to see through her mind. She looked at Catherine with an awkward smile after a pause.

“Kathy, how did you know I have something to say?”

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?"
