All Her Secrets Chapter 11 Look at That Jinx
At the Swanns'.It was rare for the Swanns to get up so early. Even Johnathan was awakened by Rachael and was now sitting on the living room sofa with drowsiness.Korbin was also there. He scanned the room and did not see Catherine, so he asked a maid to get Catherine out.Liana was confused and looked at her father with dissatisfaction."Daddy, we can go to Mr. David's party without her. Why should we take that jinx with us?"Ordinarily, Liana and Johnathan could not be patched up and argued with each other for all time. But today was different.With a common enemy, Jonathan could not agree more with Liana's opinion."Dad, Liana is right. That jinx comes from a country place and doesn't know the rules. Didn't you say Mr. David is of great importance to us? What if we take Catherine with us, and she ruins Mr. David's party? If so, our efforts will be in vain!"Mr. David they were talking about was born in Casier and settled down in Mistel with his family when he was young.Yea
All Her Secrets Chapter 12 Center of the Gossip
Korbin frowned, and his eyes fell on Catherine with displeasure.He thought, "Indeed, this kid doesn't know how to behave herself. She doesn't deserve my love."Catherine, you'd better change into formal dresses. We are not the only family that attends Mr. David's party, and there will be other top and famous families in Casier. I don't want them to point and laugh at you.Catherine was more like a detached observer than the person Korbin was educating."The mouths belong to them. If they want to laugh, they can laugh. I don't care."Korbin was irritated. At his age, apart from Vicente, who had passed away, no one dared to talk to him like that.He was about to get shirty with Catherine, but Catherine spoke first, "If I can't wear this, I won't go to the party."Korbin was blindsided.As Catherine was turning away, Korbin shouted, "Wait!"Catherine whirled around and stared detachedly at him like staring at a stranger.Korbin furrowed his brows and waved at her with resignati
All Her Secrets Chapter 13 An Unruly Girl
What Catherine saw was a grey-haired elder. He showed up in the garden and was surrounded by people.The other people who caught a glimpse of him would dash forward to him with bright eyes.Even Liana, sitting next to Catherine, was thrilled."Dad, look! Mr. David is here!"Korbin already noticed that. He glanced back at his family members and demanded, "Cheer up, all of you! Come with me. We need to greet Mr. David. Pay attention to your words and behaviors. Be humble."Liana was glowing with pride. She smiled widely and promised, "Dad, don't worry about us. Jonathan and I have been around you since we were kids, and we've attended such parties millions of times. We won't make mistakes. But someone needs to pay more attention to her words and deeds."Everyone knew Liana said so on purpose, and her target was Catherine.However, they did not think Liana's words were inappropriate. They agreed with Liana.Catherine was a girl who returned from the country place not long ago. She
All Her Secrets Chapter 14 Kneel and Apologize
Catherine knew she should be responsible for knocking down the teacup, so she got up from the chair and prepared to apologize.However, the woman glared at Catherine. Before Catherine could say something, she bombarded Catherine with curses, "Are you blind? Or is your arm broken? How come you can't even hold a teacup still? Do you know how costly my dress is?"The woman noticed that Catherine dressed more poorly than a maid and thought she was a cleaner here, so she pushed further."You need to get on your knees and apologize to me. Otherwise, I'll tell the owner here to fire you, and I'll make sure you don't get another job in Casier for the rest of your life."Some people around them recognized Catherine, but none of them reminded that woman of who Catherine was.It would be a good show, and who would want to miss it?Besides, they were all competitors today. It would be great if they could have one less powerful rival.Being watched by a crowd of people, the woman whose dress
All Her Secrets Chapter 15 Watch the Juicy Stuff!
Catherine was much taller than that woman, so she looked down at the woman stonily."Since you love to make people kneel, how about you apologize to me in the way you like?"Catherine spilled out the words calmly, but everyone else could not believe their ears.The crowd thought, "This country girl of the Swanns is too arrogant! Even Korbin, her father, cannot ask another person to kneel!"As they saw it, Mr. David stuck up for Catherine because she was also his guest.Now that Catherine had put forward such an outrageous request, the other people were all waiting to see Catherine making herself a joke. They thought Catherine did not know how to mind her place.The look on Mr. David's face turned even darker, as the crowd had expected.He walked to Catherine with a grim face, and the others were looking forward to a good show.Little did they know that when Mr. David stood by Catherine's side, he did not rebuke Catherine. Instead, he bellowed at the woman before Catherine, "Did
All Her Secrets Chapter 16 She's Incomprehensible
Catherine followed Mr. David into an inner chamber, where the decoration was elegant, and no one would bother them.Catherine walked to a chair and sat down. Mr. David stood by her side, bowing and wearing a respectful look.Catherine looked around the room before resting her eyes on David."Why don't you have a seat?"David did not even raise his head. He replied to Catherine with his head low, "Miss Swann, I don't need to sit. You can order me anything you want. I haven't received the news that you will be here today, and I didn't go out to greet you. What's more, you encountered such a displeasing thing here. It's all my fault."Catherine beamed. She did not know that had worried David.She pointed at the seat opposite her and said, "It's fine. People out there had no idea about my situation. This is your place. You're the host, and I'm your guest. Have a seat."Mr. David knew her character well. He knew Catherine would not offer twice, so he did not dare to disobey her order
All Her Secrets Chapter 17 Her Background?
After Catherine left, Mr. David abruptly stopped the banquet, saying it was canceled due to health concerns.No one knew what had happened. It was a big mystery. People were already curious about Catherine, who had a reputation as a "troublemaker." Now, with this unexpected event, their curiosity grew even stronger.Everyone was curious and eager for the Swanns to hold a gathering and address their questions and doubts directly.Liana joined Rachael and the others in the car. One moment, she welcomed people with a smile, but her expression turned serious as soon as the car door closed."Mommy, we made a big impression today. They say we have someone extraordinary in our family. There are even rumors that Mr. David's order is exclusively for us. Mommy, aren't we amazing? Thanks to Catherine, we're in the spotlight!"Liana smirked and looked at Rachael with a mocking expression. Her sarcastic remarks and tone annoyed everyone around.Catherine sat in the RV's back corner.With her
All Her Secrets Chapter 18 Unfamiliarity with Him
When Catherine heard Korbin's voice, she halted and pivoted to face him.Her eyes met Korbin's with an icy detachment devoid of warmth or interest.Korbin was puzzled by the situation, but when Catherine glanced at him, a strange feeling stirred in his chest.He only experienced this feeling when dealing with angry Vicente.Catherine looked at Korbin, who stayed quiet for a while. Her eyebrows came together, showing her concern.She spoke quietly and coldly, "What's wrong?"Her voice seemed to have a magic power that brought Korbin's attention back.Korbin looked up at Catherine, trying to look serious. He asked with a serious face, "Do you know Mr. David? Why haven't you mentioned it before?"Before Korbin could complete his question, Catherine swiftly responded concisely."No, I don't know him!"The truth was Catherine and David didn't know each other well. They were just acquaintances.Korbin found himself unable to express what he had initially intended to say, prompting

He thought in his mind, "Since these people like this brat so much, I'll just give the brat to them when Catherine gives birth. Saves one more person from sharing my wife with me."Triston smiled and watched the crowd as the birthday party began exactly as it should.The big screen began to show all the images of Audrey from her debut until now that were outstanding or worthy of recording. Some of the images weren't even in Audrey's possession, but Triston had found them and made a video of them.As the images flashed by, Audrey's tears couldn't help but fall from her face.

All Her Secrets Chapter 1044 Interact with My Nephew

"I didn't participate in so many of your past birthdays. I finally have a chance to participate this time."He persuaded Audrey repeatedly. Audrey couldn't resist him and could only agree to let him arrange the party.Luckily, he only invited Audrey's close friends and did not send out invitations widely, so she could take this opportunity to have a gathering of friends.Audrey was surprised to see Catherine when she arrived.Catherine was now eight months pregnant.

All Her Secrets Chapter 1043 Leave Everything to Me
Sure enough, only after Audrey said those words, Willa's face completely darkened.Seeing that Willa was about to explode, suddenly...Triston applauded happily, which instantly attracted the crowd's attention.Triston calmly met everyone's gaze and looked at Audrey gently. "Good. You're worthy of being the woman I love. I'm most annoyed with those women who stay at home day in and day out and like to gossip when they have nothing else to do. You have your own career and I'm very supportive of that."Triston said this with a proud look on his face and raised his eyebrows at Audrey, full of smugness.Willa's face instantly turned gloomy.Her son had demeaned her by calling her a gossipy woman just to please another woman, and it made her furious.Egbert kind of realized that his son was totally in love with Audrey. He thought it was good because Triston used to be a playboy and was always surrounded by messy women. At that time, he was really worried that Triston would marry an u
All Her Secrets Chapter 1042 Audrey's Trouble
Although Audrey was born into a wealthy family, Triston's mother, Willa Lambert, had always been prejudiced against showbiz and therefore did not approve of Triston's pursuit of Audrey.In Willa's opinion, female celebrities in the showbiz industry had always appeared in public, which was not like the demeanor of a lady from a wealthy family.It was only after learning that Audrey and Triston might be together that she eagerly introduced Triston to girls in the first place. She didn't realize that after all this time, her son still hadn't given up on Audrey, and this was the first time she'd seen her son so attached to a girl.If it weren't for that, she wouldn't agree to appear at today's dinner party now.Triston led Audrey into the door, and everyone from the Lamberts had already arrived.The scene of everyone sitting in the private room made Audrey feel a bit guilty.

All Her Secrets Chapter 1041 Meeting with His Family
Audrey never expected to be so suddenly arranged to meet Triston's family.She couldn't react when Triston talked to her about it. Looking at Triston with disbelief in her eyes, she said, "Pardon me?"Triston's handsome face carried a gentle smile. "I've inquired with Kim. You don't have any work arrangements since this afternoon, and you can also take a day off tomorrow. It's just right for us to have dinner together in the evening."Audrey frowned and asked inwardly, "Is that what I care about?"What she cared about was who Triston had just said she would have dinner with tonight. "Why are you suddenly asking your family to have dinner with me?"The Swanns and the Lamberts were both in Casier and they were also considered to be friends. For Triston's family, although Audrey was not familiar with them, she had seen them at major parties.But in the past, they used to meet as ordinary friends.Now that she and Triston were in a relationship, his sudden proposal to take her to di
All Her Secrets Chapter 1040 You Still Have Me
Audrey hesitated for a moment but still answered the phone with a nervous heart.She believed that Catherine definitely had a way to get her to answer the phone, but things would be troublesome if she made Catherine take her actions.She put her phone to her ear and inquired in a low voice, "Morning, Kathy. What's the matter?"Catherine's voice remained as cold as ever, without any emotion. "Tell me, what is it that you haven't told me?"Audrey had already figured out a strategy to deal with it and how to excuse herself, but as soon as she answered the phone, Catherine asked her so directly, which made her suddenly unable to react.Audrey had no choice but to tell Catherine the truth.After listening to her trembling narration, Catherine only asked coldly, "Are you sure you want him to be your boyfriend?"Audrey was a bit hesitant.

All Her Secrets Chapter 1039 Her Happiness
Faced with Triston's questioning, Ronin looked arrogant. "Catherine and Audrey are sisters, so Audrey is my sister. You can bully anyone, but you can't bully her. Or else, we can't even be friends."Ronin's words sounded childish, but there was seriousness inside his eyes when he said those words. He grew up with Catherine and regarded Catherine as his most important family member. To him, Catherine's sister was his sister.After listening to Ronin's words, Triston faintly laughed out. "I see."Ronin thought that Triston didn't take his words to heart, and immediately felt a burning anger. "What do you mean? You don't understand my warning, do you?""Easy!" Triston gestured for him to calm down, then said calmly, "Even death row inmates have a chance to explain, right? You should at least hear me out.""Hmph!" Ronin snorted disdainfully.
