Chapter 586 Jada’s Apology

When Catherine stepped out of the classroom after class, she bumped into Jada right in the hallway. Jada stood there and stared at Catherine.

After spotting Catherine, she immediately approached.

“Catherine, can you come with me? I need to talk to you!”

Before Catherine could respond, Amelia rushed in from the side. Amelia had a protective vibe as she asked, “Why should we go just because you call us? Who knows what your intentions are?”

Amelia couldn’t help but roll her eyes at Jada. She thought Jada didn’t seem like a good person.

She never quite understood why Jada didn’t get along with Catherine, but she didn’t dare ask Catherine.

She thought that, as an outstanding person, Catherine wouldn’t entertain such boring questions.

Later, Amelia accidentally talked to Ronin about Jada and found out it was due to relationship issues.

Amelia had seen shameless people, but none was as shameless as Jada.

Catherine was engaged to Branden, yet Jada wanted to meddle. It was so outrageous.

This made Amelia furious. She wanted to march forward and give Jada a couple of slaps.

Catherine observed Amelia, who looked even angrier than her. With her arms crossed, Catherine stood at the side and looked like a spectator enjoying the show.

Seeing Catherine ignoring her, Jada initially thought of storming off, but she remembered her father’s advice before leaving.

The fate of both the Facers and her mother’s families rested on her shoulders. Jada had to swallow her pride.

Jada hesitated and then awkwardly said, “Catherine, I’m sorry for what I’ve done. Please, can you forgive me this time?”

Hearing Jada’s apology, Amelia was taken aback.

She turned to Catherine and whispered, “Am I hearing things right? The usually high and mighty Jada is actually apologizing?”

Amelia’s words left Jada feeling extremely embarrassed.

But she couldn’t retreat. The fate of two families depended on her. Catherine stood there and remained calm. She had expected Jada to come and apologize.

Perhaps even if Jada hadn’t, the Facers would push her to do so.

Catherine looked down at Jada, who lowered her head and looked embarrassed. “You haven’t wronged me. No need to apologize. Just get out of the way, please!”

After Jada heard Catherine’s cold refusal, her heart sank.

With a pained expression, she looked up at Catherine and asked, “Can you please spare the Facers and the Grelin Group?”

Catherine remained cold and ignored her. She turned and was ready to leave. Jada rushed forward and stood directly in Catherine’s path.

“Why won’t you let me go, Catherine? Is my pleading not enough? Are you really going to make me kneel to you? I know you dislike me, but please spare my family. My grandpa was old. He can’t handle this. Please!”

As it was the end of class, many witnessed this scene.

Onlookers pulled out their phones to capture the moment. They felt sympathy as they heard Jada’s desperate plea.

People who initially enjoyed the spectacle suddenly turned empathetic. They gazed at Catherine with questioning and angry eyes, while looking at Jada with sympathy and seeing Jada as the vulnerable one.

Some couldn’t bear it and morally pressured Catherine. “Catherine, Jada is begging you. Isn’t it enough no matter the level of hatred?”

One voice led to many agreements.

Suddenly, what was once a crowd spectating turned into a battalion condemning Catherine.

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?"
