Triston also noticed that Audrey didn't seem to understand what he was talking about. He pointed a finger at Branden, then at Catherine.

Audrey understood immediately that Triston was talking about Branden and Catherine being engaged.

In the upper-class community, Branden was the dream of countless girls. Many people took marrying the Duncans as their lifelong ambition.

However, Branden was cold and didn't like to socialize with others. He spent most of his time on his work and was rarely heard to be involved with any woman.

In fact, Branden was even once rumored to be gay, as there was only Triston by his side all the time.

Audrey studied Branden carefully with a brief glance at him.

Even though she had only taken one look at him, Audrey was almost frozen by Branden's cold presence. She looked away hurriedly and didn't dare to look at him again.

Even though Branden was a great man, Audrey felt he was incompatible with Catherine. Audrey didn't know what Vicente was thinking abou

    In the afternoon, after Catherine returned to her class.The class quieted down immediately. It was even quieter than when the homeroom teacher arrived.Everyone had their eyes fixed on Catherine. Some of them looked surprised, some disdainful, and some were once again mesmerized by Catherine's beauty.Despite being the focus of everyone's attention, Catherine acted as if nothing was wrong and went back to her seat.As she sat down, the discussions around her started again."How is she still here? Didn't Bryan teach her a lesson? I heard that no girl could live to see tomorrow in the classroom after approaching Bryan. Even though it has only been a morning, isn't it more than enough for Bryan to make her disappear already?""Who knows? Maybe she is skillful in her own way. I heard that she carries a curse and is a jinx herself. Her own family abandoned her since she was just a child.""Shut up! Don't let Catherine hear you. I heard she's tough and a great fighter for growing up

    Just as everyone thought Bryan would get mad at Catherine and was praying silently for Catherine, Bryan's attitude left everyone in shock again.Bryan's serious expression broke into a faint smile suddenly, which made him seem more relaxed and less stern.He pulled his chair out, sat down, leaned towards Catherine, and looked at her in a friendly manner. "It's okay. We are now classmates and deskmates already. We'll become somewhat like friends when we are more familiar with one another, won't we?"Everyone was speechless. Was this the Bryan they knew?Why did he look like a playful hooligan flirting with girls?Catherine took another rare glance at Bryan, who had changed his attitude so suddenly.She suddenly felt that Bryan looked somewhat like Ronin.But he wasn't as cute as Ronin was. Besides, she already had Ronin and did not need another boy like him.If Bryan knew what Catherine was thinking about right now, he would surely go mad.After all, he was the boss that everyo

    Bryan was so agitated that he forgot Catherine was still sleeping next to him. Now that she was awake, she looked cold with her brows furrowed.For no reason at all, Bryan couldn't help but be slightly scared seeing her like this. He spoke nervously, "Catherine, I...""It's so noisy!"With her brows knitted, Catherine said this unhappily, which made Bryan shut up immediately.When the mathematics teacher saw Catherine looking so casual, she grew even more disdainful towards her.As Bryan stopped talking at just a light comment from Catherine, the mathematics teacher couldn't help but grow even angrier.Bryan talked back to her all he wanted, even when she was the teacher.However, Catherine made Bryan shut up with three simple words. The mathematics teacher felt that she had been humiliated. It was as if she was not intimidating at all.The mathematics teacher rolled her eyes and looked at Catherine, speaking in a weird tone, "What is it? Is the pig awake and ready to save the

  • All Her Secrets   Chapter 44 Top of the Class

    It was not only the mathematics teacher, but nobody believed Catherine could come top in the class.After all, Sincere High School was the most famous high school in the city, and Class 8 was the best in the school. A top university would admit half of the students who graduated from such a class.In fact, to admit more students from a class like this, there was even news that top universities fought at the school's gate. One could see how great the students of Class 8 were.The mathematics teacher didn't believe a student like Catherine, who was probably illiterate, could be top in the class.Being top in Class 8 would mean being the top of the year. That was for sure.In the face of Catherine's taunts, the mathematics teacher smiled mockingly. "Since you dare to make such a promise, I'll see how you do. If you come top in the class on the test next week, I'll apologize to you in front of the entire school."As she was finished, Catherine added, "And admit you're the pig!"She

    Catherine pointed at the exercise she had just thrown at Bryan, then said to him, "You. Go and teach the class."When Bryan opened his exercise just now, she glanced at his answers.They were basically all correct and were all solved clearly and logically. She could tell that he was pretty smart.Stunned, Bryan couldn't believe Catherine was asking him to teach the entire class. Was he hallucinating?Who would believe something so outrageous?However, it was really happening. Seeing that Bryan didn't move, Catherine looked at him with a brow raised. Her eyes grew colder as she said, "Do you not want to?"Bryan replied without thinking, "I do!"Then, Bryan picked up the exercise, got to the front, and faced the class."The multiple-choice questions in the front are too easy. I will skip those. Let's start with the long questions..."Bryan was the best in mathematics in the class. Many students begged him to teach them, but he never agreed.Now, he was actually teaching the cla

    This was probably the first time Branden had ever been rejected in his life.It was also the first time he had taken the initiative and been rejected.However, Branden wasn't upset at all. Instead, a faint, mischievous smile played on his thin lips as he spoke."Give me a reason!"Just like last time with Catherine at the Charm Bar, he wanted an explanation.He would let Catherine go if she could convince him.Catherine raised an eyebrow, her attitude indifferent, her eyes carrying a hint of coldness and rebelliousness. At this moment, she exuded a wild and arrogant aura."I do what I want!"She never needed to justify her actions, no matter who she was with.A sense of rebellion and untamed spirit emanated from her entire being, which was remarkable to witness.After a few seconds of silence, Branden chuckled."Let me take you back home!" he said.Catherine knew that this man was up to something.Perhaps he knew from the beginning that she wouldn't agree to have dinner wi

    Hearing Catherine's question, Branden surprisingly didn't get upset as he usually would. Instead, he responded with a faint smile."It belongs to Triston," he explained to Catherine.With those words, Catherine instantly understood. The Lamberts were not lacking in money, so if Triston opened a barbecue restaurant, it would likely satisfy her appetite.It meant the restaurant wouldn't cut corners with low-quality ingredients, so everything here must be decent.Catherine pondered this and suddenly felt her appetite whetted.Once she had the thought, she was determined to try the international barbecue restaurant.Catherine instructed Paxton, who was in the driver's seat, "Pull over to the side!"Paxton obediently followed her order and pulled over to the side. After all, his boss hadn't uttered a word throughout, which meant he should listen to Miss Swann.After the car came to a stop, Catherine instinctively opened the door and got out, following the scent of barbecue.Her sen

    Triston's arrival at the restaurant had already caught Branden's attention.To avoid alarming Catherine, he allowed Triston to approach, but he didn't expect him to be so clueless.When Catherine looked up, Triston realized that the girl sitting across from Branden was her.His face instantly lit up with a smile as he addressed her, "Hey, Catherine, what a coincidence! I didn't expect to run into you in my restaurant!"Catherine remained silent, maintaining her cold demeanor, not even glancing at Triston, and continuing to enjoy her barbecue.Triston, despite coming from a wealthy family, didn't act like the typical obnoxious rich kid.Even if Catherine ignored him, he didn't seem upset. Instead, his gaze shifted between Catherine and Branden."Oh, oh, oh, your table is ready. Maybe I should join you here? The more, the merrier! Am I right?"After saying that, Triston immediately sat down, took a new set of utensils, and didn't hesitate to start eating the food on the table.A

    In the end, Branden couldn't stand it anymore. He took the initiative to snatch Catherine back, only then did the scene come under control.Now, no one dared to continue touching Catherine's belly.Once he snatched Catherine back, he held her tightly in his arms and prevented anyone from touching her. 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. She cried not only because she remembered the hardships she had endured in showbiz for many years, but also bec

"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.

    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. She looked guiltily at the crowd and whispered, "I'm sorry. I'm late."Triston's father, Egbert Lambert, had a

    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

    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. Everyone blessed her and Triston after they found out they were together again, but Catherine was the only one who asked her to calm down and think i

    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. He secretly thought in his heart, "If Triston says any more asshole words, I'll definitely not show him any respect."Triston put away that cyni
