Chapter 510 What’s She Talking About?

Seeing Catherine’s poor attitude, Liana nearly wanted to explode in anger.

“How could you talk like that?”

Catherine did not answer Liana. She did not want to talk to her at all. However, Liana did not want to let her go easy. She looked down at Catherine cockily.

“Catherine, what’s the point, really? You found out why the teacher asked to see us here, so you tagged along desperately. Who got you in? Was it Bryan or Ronin, huh?

“Or did you bribe the homeroom teacher for an opportunity like this?”

As for Catherine and the homeroom teacher’s relationship, Liana had never liked it to begin with.

In her opinion, the homeroom teacher was taking sides with Catherine.

The teacher must have done this because of Catherine’s bribes!

The more Liana thought about it, the angrier she felt. She could not help complaining. She could not let Catherine get her hands on such an opportunity

“Catherine, do you think just because you get to talk to those representatives for advanced college placement, you’ll get the chance to enter a good college? Let me tell you, it’s impossible. It’s all about the grades, okay?”

Despite Liana talking so much, Catherine still looked very lost.

Since Liana was so agitated, Catherine decided to be charitable and give her a degree of reaction.

She leaned back slightly, raised her head to look sideways at Liana, and asked Ronin, “What is she talking about?”

Catherine’s words left Liana scoffing uncontrollably with disdain all over her face.

“Catherine, by now, why do you even bother pretending?”

Liana was probably the only person thinking Catherine was pretending. After knowing Catherine for such a long time, everyone knew she had a firm and decisive personality.

As for pretending…

She despised pretense.

Seeing this, Ronin figured out what was going on.

“Catherine, didn’t the homeroom teacher tell you what you’re doing at school today?”

Catherine replied mildly, “She just told me to come over.”

A knowing look appeared on Ronin’s face.

Usually, when people received such calls from their homeroom teachers, they would automatically ask about the purpose of the meeting. Otherwise, they would find out more on their own, like Liana.

However, Catherine was no ordinary person, so her mind did not operate the same way.

Catherine was willing to come back to school entirely on account of the homeroom teacher. Would she even bother asking questions?

Ronin quickly told Catherine about advanced college placement.

After he was done talking, everyone turned to look at Catherine expectantly.

After all, when Catherine took the exam, everyone knew her arms were injured, so her movements were restricted.

She had trouble even moving, let alone taking a major examination.

Liana was surprised by Catherine’s presence at school, and she was not alone. The other students around them felt the same way.

Seeing the expectant looks on their faces, Catherine answered lazily.

She answered with a single syllable, ” Oh!”

Catherine’s lackluster reaction left everyone disappointed.

Liana was certain that Catherine was only pretending. Catherine had trouble even writing. How could she have good results?

The atmosphere in the classroom felt tense, but it broke when the homeroom teacher entered the room.

She had entered at the perfect time, so Liana stopped trying to argue with Catherine.

If not for maintaining social graces, she even wanted to run up in front of the homeroom teacher and show the teacher her excellent results.

This time during the exam, she was top ten in the county.

Even in a high society school like Loyalty Academy, she was top 3.

She was worthy of being present today!

Class 8 had done well this time, so the homeroom teacher was praised by the school, She looked energetic and particularly happy.

She stood on the podium with all smiles.

“I’d like to congratulate everyone for excellent results this time.”

“I’m sure all of you know the reason you were called to come, right? In that case, I will cut to the chase. The school representatives who are here to select advanced placement students are already next door in the multimedia room. You may go over and talk to them now!”

Once the homeroom teacher told them to go, everyone anxiously went next door.

Undoubtedly, good grades were very important, but it was even more important to pick the right school.

If they could leave a good impression on the college representatives, it would certainly give them an edge.

Liana had done her homework and prepared a lot of documents. She walked over excitedly, afraid of being left behind.

In the class, only Catherine failed to react much and did not move after some time. Ronin was also not anxious. He came to school to be with Catherine.

He would pick whatever Catherine wanted.

“Catherine, let’s go check it out!”

“Uh-huh!”

Catherine finally stood up and went to the multimedia room next door with Ronin.

Inside the room, teachers from the best colleges in the country were waiting. Loyalty Academy was the best high society school in town.

The students here came with powerful backgrounds, and they were particularly professional and had good grades.

The teachers treated the school as a very important place for securing advanced college placement candidates.

Liana had clear goals. She planned on going abroad to study at the best music college and become a well-known pianist.

This way, she would be a model for all high society ladies.

Thanks to Catherine, her chances were affected.

Her mother was unsupportive about her studying abroad. It took a lot of money to study art, and all the family resources were poured onto Catherine right now. They were unable to afford to pay tuition for a music college abroad.

She could only go with plan B and choose finance. In the future, she would snatch everything back from Catherine and run the family businesses.

Hence, Liana approached the representative for the University of Penny the moment she entered through the door.

This was the best college in the country. In Loxton, it was the college with the best finance department.

The best people in the country from the finance trade were mostly from this college.

Liana confidently handed all her information to the advancement placement teacher.

“Sir, here are all my results along with a short introduction about myself. I hope you can take a look!”

The school representative did not need any information. Before coming, they had already gotten their hands on all the information they needed about the schools. They probably knew the results and backgrounds better than them.

Liana was indeed an excellent student and had no problem entering the college.

The advancement placement teacher smiled at Liana and said in a friendly tone, “Liana, you have excellent grades. As you know, finance is the strongest department in our college, so we have high standards. Are you confident about getting in?”

Just as Liana was about to speak, she could sense a commotion behind her.

Even the teacher in front of her was stunned, so she automatically stood up.

She hurriedly turned her head and looked behind her.

“And this is…”

A white-haired professor with two middle-aged assistants went towards a spot in the corner.

The sign on the table in front of him clearly read: Styre University!

If the University of Penny was the best college in the country, then Styre University was the most mysterious college in Chritie.

Styre University students would all get selected by the government. A handful that got left out also got hired by the best companies in the country.

So to speak, having their university diploma was like having the golden ticket.

This mysterious college never took advanced placement students previously. So, what were they doing here?

The people present were excited to see them here. If they got selected by the college, it would be a great honor for their families.

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?"
