Chapter 1031 I Was Just Kidding

Audrey couldn’t even be bothered to change the location and went straight to the factory arranged by the kidnappers.

The Freesons sent Sebastian and his son, Dane. When they arrived at the location and saw the surrounding environment, they instantly turned unpleasant.

Triston came out to greet them, and Dane immediately expressed his dissatisfaction. “I’ve heard of Mr. Lambert being suave, but meeting you in person is quite disappointing. I can’t believe you like to meet in this kind of place.”

Triston gave a slight smile, but endless coldness was hidden beneath his seemingly smiling eyes. “Mr. Freeson, that’s not right. Your people clearly chose this place for us. We’re waiting here for you, so why are you blaming us now?”

Hearing it, the Freesons immediately understood what he meant.

Dane suddenly shut up and backed away quietly.

Seeing him acting like a coward, Triston sneered secretly with disdain.

Sebastian knew that they were in the wrong and immediately stood up and asked politely, “Is Miss Swann okay? We mainly came here to confirm her safety, hoping she is safe and sound.”

As soon as he finished, Audrey slowly walked out from behind. “Thanks for asking. I had quite an experience this time, thanks to Ms. Freeson.”

The Freesons’s faces turned really unpleasant, but they couldn’t argue back because Audrey was the victim.

Not to mention, Audrey had some big shots backing her up. Messing with even one of them would bring the Freesons calamity.

Rumor had it that Audrey’s little sister, who was said to be a top-notch big shot, had a terrible temper. If they were to piss her off, she could bring down the Freesons at any time.

Even Sebastian had to talk respectfully in front of Audrey, “Miss Swann, we are very sorry for the misunderstanding this time. No matter what requests you make, we will definitely go all out to fulfill it.”

Audrey replied with a smirk, “What if I told you I want Janice to disappear?”

Everyone was taken aback at her sentence, including Triston. He never expected Audrey to be so bossy now. After hesitating for a moment, Dane murmured to Sebastian, “Dad, if sacrificing one person could bring peace to the whole family, I think it’s worth it.”

Sebastian looked torn, furrowing his brows tightly, and one could tell he was struggling.

After hesitating for a while, he finally said to Audrey, “Miss Swann, is there any other way we can discuss this?”

Audrey heard what Dane said and even felt a little sorry for Janice.

‘Indeed, when it comes to family interests, anyone can be sacrificed. No matter how favored you are, it’s not even worth mentioning when it comes to the family’s interests. They can even sacrifice personal values for the sake of the so-called reputation,’ said Audrey inwardly.

In such a situation, she felt Catherine was a precious gem more than ever.

If it hadn’t been for Catherine to come back to change everything, she would probably have ended up more tragic than Janice.

Audrey chuckled softly. “I was just kidding. You don’t need to take it seriously. But Ms. Freeson is really sassy. She attacked me when I didn’t even provoke her. If it were someone else, their life would probably be ruined.

Her words got Sebastian deep in thought. He also knew that the Freesons spoiled Janice a bit too much.

After thinking it over carefully, he came up with a suggestion. “Miss Swann, we will definitely teach her a lesson this time. If you hand her over to us, I will send her to Theisia’s girls’ school overnight, cut off all her privileges, and not allow her to set foot in Eskana for five years. What do you think?”

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?"
