Chapter 1029 We’ll Be Friends

Janice had a very arrogant attitude after arriving at the address given by the kidnappers.

She angrily yelled at the leader of the kidnappers, “What’s wrong with you? Why don’t you answer the phone? Can you still get things done?”

She had an arrogant attitude, completely looking down on the other person. This attitude really irritated the leader of the kidnappers, but he remembered Audrey’s instructions and didn’t expose himself.

“When you gave us the task, you only said it was a female celebrity but didn’t mention her identity. We were almost killed by her bodyguards, and two of our brothers got injured,” he said.

Hearing this, Janice immediately got nervous. “Is Audrey okay?”

What she was most worried about right now was Audrey. If Audrey got hurt, the Freesons would be in big trouble.

“She’s got a little hurt and needs your help; come with me first.”

When Janice heard that Audrey was injured, she was anxious. Initially, she was still on guard, but now she didn’t care about anything and quickly followed the kidnappers inside.

She would check on Audrey first, then inform her uncles immediately.

With Audrey in their hands, they got the capital to negotiate with the Duncans, and her grandpa wouldn’t blame her too much.

Janice thought everything was going great but never expected that she would suddenly get tied up as soon as she walked in. When she finally realized what was happening, her hands were bound with ropes tightly.

She was both anxious and mad, roaring, “Are you out of your mind? Why are you doing this? Don’t forget you still need money from me! I can make sure you don’t get a single dime.”

The kidnapper gave Janice a fierce look, thinking Audrey was, after all, better than her. He took the initiative to step aside and make way for others.

Audrey slowly walked out among group of bandits with Triston.

Janice’s eyes widened involuntarily at Audrey’s appearance, and a look of disbelief flashed through them.

When she realized what was happening, she angrily shouted at the kidnapper, “How dare you betray me? Do you even know who I am?”

Before the kidnapper could respond, Audrey spoke up first.

She rolled her eyes and dismissed Janice with a disdainful glare. “Alright, no need to shout. This is Casier, and it has nothing to do with the Freesons.”

Among the Casier’s Four Noble Families, the Swanns and the Duncans were connected, with Triston representing the Lamberts.

When the three families stepped forward at the same time, even if the head of the Freesons came personally, they would have to listen obediently, especially since it was just a young girl like Janice.

Janice closely observed Audrey, feeling angry but also knowing she was no match for Audrey at the moment, so she could only change her approach to negotiate. “You’re fine anyway. How about I apologize to you, and we just let bygones be bygones? From now on, we’ll be friends.”

Her attitude was like she was doing Audrey a favor by being friends with her.

Audrey couldn’t help but laugh. She sarcastically turned her head to Triston and loudly asked, “Do you want a friend like Ms. Freeson?”

“Humph!” Triston sneered and said arrogantly, “I don’t deserve such a friend!”

Audrey turned around and looked at Janice, squinting with a teasing look. ” You heard it too; even Mr. Lambert doesn’t dare to be friends with you. How could I dare?”

Janice was not stupid and could sense the sarcasm in Audrey’s words.

She glared at Audrey, clenching her teeth. “So what do you want?”

Audrey turned around and told the kidnappers’ leader, “Since she likes to play, then let her experience the tasks she assigned.”

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?"
