Chapter 1012 To Be Friends

Audrey came out of the bathroom and saw Triston leaning against the window. Just as she wanted to leave directly, Triston raised his eyes to look over.

She then asked, “Why aren’t you at the party?”

The dim light framed his handsome face. He narrowed his eyes slightly, smoke softly circling him. His voice was more hoarse than usual because of smoking. “I’m waiting for you.”

Audrey frowned slightly, avoiding eye contact. “Why? You think I would get lost on my way to the bathroom?”

Triston laughed softly in a low voice, ” Nah. I’m afraid you might vanish since it’s almost midnight.”

Audrey felt her cheeks burning, not knowing what to say. The breeze blew in through the open window and messed the hair on her forehead. Triston couldn’t help but stare.

Then he said, “Let’s get back at the party.”

Audrey glanced at him, didn’t say much, and turned toward the room.

Seeing Audrey enter the room, Amelia and Zobber dragged her aside. Amelia seriously asked, “Audrey, what is going on between you and Triston?”

Zobber received Amelia’s hint and immediately echoed. “Yeah, what’s going on? Come on, tell us.”

Audrey didn’t have many friends. Amelia and Zobber were trustworthy. Besides, she had no one to tell it to.

Audrey sighed heavily. “Nothing is going on. We are not getting back together. I guess we’ll be friends in the future.”

“Why?” Amelia exclaimed in disbelief. ” You two are made for each other. Don’t be friends. It sucks.”

Although she had a limited number of ex-boyfriends, she could tell Audrey had feelings for Triston. Triston treated Audrey differently from other women. He didn’t talk about his love for her even when pushed by Zobber.

Audrey pursed her lips and didn’t say anything. It was not easy to make them understand. Triston and she wouldn’t break up in the first place if they were so perfect together. Triston’s mother had always disliked her, and Audey didn’t want Triston to fall out with his family for her. She was over him anyway and happy to be friends.

Amelia still wanted to ask more questions but was stopped by Zobber.

It was between Audrey and Triston. They knew better than them outsiders. She had already seen Audrey’s embarrassment and didn’t want Amelia to push any further, leaving it to themselves.

Amelia only asked these questions out of concern, and since Audrey didn’t want to talk about it anymore, she stopped asking.

So, they rejoined the party. And Audrey was delighted again. With these friends, she became self-indulgent in eating and drinking.

It was late at night, and while the ladies had no intention of wrapping up, the boys were sleepy and yawning.

So, they wrapped up early. Each boy would send a girl home. Triston was to send Audrey home.

Audrey was so drunk that she could barely stand. Triston smiled helplessly. “Do you need me to help you to the car?

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?"
