All Her Secrets

Audrey dragged Catherine to the room where Vicente’s photo was. In this room, not only was Vicente’s photo placed here, but also those of other ancestors of the Swanns were kept in this room.

Catherine stood aside and watched indifferently as Audrey went forward and bowed to Vicente’s photo with great reverence.

Catherine found it a bit difficult to see through Audrey’s mind. The way she saw it, Audrey was an unfavored daughter of the Swanns. Supposedly, Audrey should hate or even resent the Swanns, but Catherine did not find that Audrey thought this way.

After lighting a candle for Vicente, Audrey turned around and looked at Catherine. There was a faint smile in Audrey’s composed eyes. Her eyes were quite warm.

“Catherine, actually, sometimes, I sort of envy you!” Audrey said.

Catherine slowly raised her head with indifference and alienation in her eyes. There was no trace of family affection in her big bright eyes. She asked, “Why do you envy me? Because I am regarded as the bane of the Swanns?”

Audrey was stunned by Catherine’s reply. It took her quite a while to recover.

Yet, Audrey did not fly into a rage due to Catherine’s attitude or say hurtful words to her as the other Swanns did.
