She scolded Catherine with fury, asserting her authority as Korbin's wife.

"Catherine, how dare you try to explain yourself? The servants have already made it clear that it's your fault your father fell ill!"

Catherine looked at her askance, adopting an air of superiority as if she couldn't care less about her.

"If you don't believe me, why bother explaining further?"

Rachael was on the verge of exasperation, facing Catherine's arrogance.

She felt helpless, unable to hurt Catherine no matter what she did.

"Catherine, calling you a jinx is spot on. Your influence on your sister has brought nothing but misfortune. A daughter like this isn't worth having!

Not at all.Catherine gave him an indifferent look, then turned to leave.Adrien hadn't anticipated Catherine's reaction.

If not, how about I take you to Oceanvile for the winter?"Catherine might have regarded Branden's arrangement favorably if she hadn't taken the training mission to Scorpion Island.Rodge had messaged her a couple of times for help, and Dr. Dunn had been urging her to make a trip over there."No!"

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.

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.

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.

    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.
