All Her Secrets Chapter 562 by Chestnut

Chapter 562 Surprise Everyone

Branden knew Catherine’s class schedule even better than Catherine herself. He knew she only had one morning class at Styre University that day, so he rushed over to see her once he finished his work.

Standing aside, Amelia initially couldn’t understand why such a handsome guy would approach them. It turned out he was seeking after Super Catherine.

‘He even called Super Catherine Kathy, such an intimate nickname,’ said Amelia inwardly.

She was staring at them without blinking, trying to figure out something.

The gaze by Catherine’s side was so passionate. Catherine wasn’t blind, so of course, she could sense it.

She slightly turned her body, looked up at Branden, and then turned her gaze to the side at Amelia. She calmly introduced, “My boyfriend, Branden Duncan!”

Branden knew that Amelia was Catherine’s roommate, so he politely nodded at her.

“Hello!”

Amelia’s face turned red instantly when she was greeted by such a handsome guy.

‘Turns out this handsome guy is Catherine’s boyfriend,’ she thought.

Just a moment ago, she thought to herself that Catherine couldn’t appreciate the handsome guy for not being excited when seeing Hero. Now, she realized how wrong she was.

‘Who says she couldn’t appreciate handsome guys? She simply doesn’t care about Hero’s looks, that’s all.

‘If I had a handsome boyfriend like Branden Duncan, I wouldn’t even bother looking at other men,’ Amelia thought.

Enough daydreaming, Amelia decided to back off smartly.

“I gotta go rest upstairs. You guys keep chatting!”

Branden glanced at the back of Amelia as she ran off and chuckled softly, saying, “Your roommate is quite interesting!”

Catherine nodded in agreement. “Her personality is pretty good, very cheerful!”

Branden thought that Catherine just needed someone with a lively personality by her side.

Catherine was such a cold person.

Genius was meant to be lonely. She had long surpassed the heights that others could never reach in their entire lives.

This also destined her to an extraordinary life. So when Catherine chose to go to college, Branden did not oppose her decision and also felt that Catherine should experience the typical journey that most people take at her age.

“Feeling hungry?” His gentle voice surrounded Catherine’s ears.

Catherine shook her head and said, ” Nah, I’m not hungry. On our way back just now with Amelia, we stumbled upon a club recruitment event, and she convinced me to sign up for the esports club. Took us a bit of time.”

This could be considered an active response to the question posed by Branden earlier.

Branden gently took her hand and placed it beside him. “You could join the esports club since you play games often,” he said.

“Since you’re not hungry, how about taking a rest first and going out to eat later?”

The last half sentence was a question. Catherine heard it, but she didn’t really have any thoughts about going out to eat.

“Forget it. How about you cook?”

Branden was totally okay with cooking himself. Since Catherine wanted to eat his cooking, he would get in the kitchen.

“Okay.”

Around 7 o’clock in the evening, Catherine was bored and playing games on her phone when Amelia suddenly ran over excitedly.

“Super Catherine, when are we going to hit the road?”

Catherine slightly raised her gaze, looking at Amelia with a puzzled expression in her eyes.

“Super Catherine, you didn’t forget about tonight’s esports club orientation meeting, did you? The senior told us we must not miss it!” exclaimed Amelia as she raised her voice.

The esports club only managed to recruit two female freshmen as new members.

The senior was so afraid that the new members would run away. After adding Amelia’s WhatsApp, she kept reminding and urging them to come tonight and not be late.

Actually, Catherine totally forgot it.

Of course, even the registration form was filled out by Amelia for her. She didn’t care about this at all. She didn’t even hear clearly what the senior student instructed them to do.

But it was not too late now. They could still go there in time.

“Are we going now?”

Seeing Catherine didn’t back out, Amelia let out a sigh of relief. She was actually worried that Catherine would say no and quit the esports club.

If that were the case, she wouldn’t be able to explain it to the senior at all.

“Come on. Let’s leave now!” replied Catherine.

Catherine turned off the game, took her hat, and pressed it onto her head, covering up a large part of her delicate eyebrows and eyes.

It was a bit of a distance from the dorm to the esports club, and by the time the two arrived, it was already past eight.

As soon as she walked in, Amelia immediately apologized.

“Sorry, guys. We’re late!”

The sudden and sweet female voice instantly caught the attention of all the guys inside.

It had been a long time since the members of the esports club saw any female members. Now, not only had girls finally shown up, but there were two of them.

The girl without a hat looked so cute and soft.

As for the one wearing the hat, although her face was not visible, her figure and demeanor were truly exceptional.

Upon their arrival, the senior student who had recruited them felt relieved and greeted them warmly.

Looking at the two with a big smile, she said, “It’s okay. Our esports club is not that uptight. As long as you can make it, come on in, two lovely freshmen!”

After she pulled the two in, the welcoming ceremony of the esports club kicked off.

Speaking of the welcome ceremony, it was essentially an opportunity for everyone to introduce themselves and share their gaming rankings, facilitating making friends through showcasing their strengths.

Everyone had finished introducing themselves, leaving only Catherine. Seeing that Catherine did not react, Amelia couldn’t help but bump into her.

Catherine finally realized what was going on and slowly stood up. Her voice was devoid of warmth. ” Catherine Swann, playing The Storm, platinum level.

It was a simple self-introduction, similar to the style shown by Catherine, austere and cold.

After finishing speaking, Catherine was about to sit down.

The rest of the people curiously sized up to Catherine, and nobody was surprised by her gaming expertise.

Girls are generally not as good as guys when it comes to playing games. Being in the platinum level is pretty normal for girls.

In The Storm, platinum level is the second to last rank, which is not really considered a great achievement.

‘But Catherine has such a cold personality,’ they thought.

The senior student awkwardly looked at Catherine, unsure why she always became cautious when facing Catherine.

Subconsciously, she was convinced by Catherine’s powerful aura.

“Catherine, now you’re also part of our esports club. You always wear that cap, and we can’t see your face clearly. How about taking off the cap and showing us your face?

“In the future, we’ll all be part of the same club. Just in case you have something going on, we can cover for you!”

It was just a habit for Catherine to wear a hat. She didn’t mean to target anyone in particular.

So, after the senior student made this request, Catherine nodded and took off the hat resting on her head. The moment the hat was taken off, her beautiful, delicate face instantly appeared before everyone’s eyes.

When everyone saw Catherine’s appearance, they couldn’t help but stare with wide eyes. Some even forgot to breathe.

‘Wow, what a beautiful face and such a pretty girl,’ said they inwardly.

At that moment, they finally understood why Catherine chose to wear a hat.

‘Going out with such a gorgeous face, she must have encountered a lot of. trouble.

‘After all, who could resist such a face?’ they thought.

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?"
